  1. So the park has the possibility to build attractions in the pink zones? Or is this just for Hotels and Parking spaces? I get that the green part will not me included anymore. O i hope the attractions that park deserves to expend in ground now the have to remove good rides to develop (like the flumes they were great.). Looking forward to see what we get for the flumes. Saw the fun-house video looks great maybe next time i go to visit it.
  2. I have got it twice in one day. Past winter I went to the Efteling and did that morning the Python all alone. (it was extra sweet because it was the first normal ride with the new trains. So i loved being the first and only one on that time. ) On the end of the day I went on Joris en de Draak. (well the other track had 2 people on it but I guess if it isn't the same track it counts as a alone ride. ) That i really love to do again.
  3. I just love the looks of the Shambhala element. I don't really know why but it looks great en fun and makes me want to go try it out immediately. The Stengel Dive on Goliath (Walibi Holland) I just love to do, that small nice sweep on top, I love it. Yet it looks so simple thats what makes it beautiful, if you asked me.
  4. Favorite Water coaster: Poseidon at Europa park. Favorite Flume: Crazy River at Walibi Holland. Wasn't that great until I did it backwards love the big fall then. Favorite Rapid: River Quest at Phantasialand.
  5. Yes, some people have. See this picture of RCDB : Source: RCDB.com But I don't know if it really opened for guest. To bad it had to leave already. Does someone know what the real of breakdown is?
  6. Home park = the Efteling. Personal best = Hmmm hard to tell, I'm here on a head to head battle between the Python and Joris en de Draak (Eng: George and the Dragon). If the Python still had those hellish cars from Kumback it would be Joris en de Draak no doubt. But whit the new trains from Vekoma (the MK-1212) the ride is very enjoyable. I think I go for the Python.
  7. Yesterday the Python at the Efteling.
  8. Around the age of 7 ( year 1999). But it seemed so normal back then like that curiosities on how a coaster stayed on his track. It didn't look like I ended up being a coaster fan. 7 year later (year 2006) I noticed that I was a coaster fan for some years and went this year to Disneyland Paris. After I went on Rock n Roller coaster the ambition exploded and went wild for a year of 3 couldn't think of anything els than coasters coasters coasters. Today I'm at ease following the projects and going to many coasters around the Netherlands and Germany namely. So it all stared on age 7.
  9. Went to the park today and watched two shows. Its a great show even on daytime but I must say I wasn't stunned by the show. It takes his time to get in to action and when he is it takes 1 minute and its all the way back at his start, then on the end we see a big final, so the middle part and the end are the best from the show. I do love the music they chose for the show.
  10. ^ I'm sorry for doubting that because I was the one how asked, but Wikipedia is actually the last site I trust. And 12 inversions means 4 inside of that building, doesn't look like there is room for 4. In other words I think the words on Wikipedia are not possible to be the real ride.
  11. Well does anyone know for a 100% sure how is building SW7? The last I knew about it was that there where two party's one yelling Gerstlauer Eurofighter the other Maurer Shöne X-car. I still don't know much about the whole project, like why is it a Secret Weapon? Whats new about the design? And now the start whit the construction of it, seems they start early.
  12. Those videos of those four different persons where awesome. That video from the Pupa I could not hold it anymore when that duck sound came. Must say that ride looks great.
  13. Vekoma's First SLC: El Condor At Walibi Holland.
  14. Yesterday I had a day Walibi. I had not been there since the park got it's change of image, so I had to take a look. Was early in the park and started whit 2 rounds Xpress. The blacks and gray is in my opinion better, I think its suite better by Xpress. Xpress Onride: Certainly improved. After two rounds quickly went to the Speed ​​of Sound. I had never ridden a boomerang coaster before let alone a roller coaster backwards. I needed to adjust on going backwards after the first round, but on the second round I knew what to expect. Very nice ride with the music. First Boomerang coaster for me. Then over to the wooden roller coaster but first Excelibur. Was early at the wooden roller coaster Robin Hood or how I like to call him "The Martyr". It has become a very painful ride. He sounds smooth but the torture takes place in the train makes little sense to ever get in there. Poor people if they knew. Torture turn. So I went to something a lot less shaky the Space Shot and Goliath where up. The Goliath had a what better experience than before, my own experience . Then I slowly walked towards El Condor. Remains a fun and a great last coaster of the day. But it is the first SLC Coaster of Vekoma so a very shaky ride it is. Goliath as last name that reminds you that Walibi Holland used to be Six Flags Holland. I know they bad. Had problems with my settings. Then the afternoon, I walked through the park doing all kind of attractions such as Xpress a few more times, Speed ​​of Sound, Goliath, El Condor a round or 2 extra. Also Crazy River, Merlins Magic Castle and El Rio came to pass. After some food I went back for round 3 in Speed ​​of Sound. On my way I came against Club Spyke something that I've been wondering if to do or not. I watched the show time and hurried to Speed ​​of Sound and Xpress to do before the show. I am personally glad that I had done those two quickly, because to be 20 minutes to early in the club would not have been worth it. The 5D show is still quite beautiful and the interactive part as for show is pretty funny actually. The Movie I found pretty short but the idea was great to me and the fire effects are very pleasant to watch. other people missed the chairs, I not. I found that watching it while you stand very funny. The glasses they need to make tighter. These where very loose whit a lot of people over there must be something to do about that. But of course I had a nice day at Walibi. Departure: Walibi, these were two great cars, why those stickers. Goodbye and see you next time.
  15. What? how in the world did he get there? Clime over the fence or something? Really how the F*** did he get there? I don't know how to react anymore. This is just weird and stupid. That fence stands there for a reason boy don't clime on it (I think that happened). Come on seriously whats whit people these days.
  16. My Favorite's. Steel: Bleu Fire (Europapark) A great coaster and my absolute favorite. Wood: Joris en de Draak (Efteling) Haven't ridden that much woodies but this was the best I have ridden. But that said I don't mean that it's a bad one because it is good. Pictures are from RCDB
  17. What I do in a Queue line is mostly look at the theming and focusing on the ride up ahead. It sounds weird to focus on the ride but for my feeling a queue goes faster than that I look around and listening to the music. And also fun to do is keeping your ears open for the GP, most likely the most stupid comments comes from the queue for the ride your about to go on. But my best tip is try (even if you are alone) to have some fun than time flies by.
  18. ^Well I must say although the weather didn't look good it was just a cloudy day. Okay it wasn't warm but all I wore was a sumer jacket and I didn't had it cold . But I did get the wettest of all that day. I usually don't get wet on a rapid ride, but just that day I got hit whit 2 or 3 big splashes of water. So I was pretty wet but still didn't had it cold.
  19. The first thing I thought was: What the f*** did I just read? Then I thought: What in the world do you want a Penguin for? Then I read: That explained the whole situation for me. Good that everything is okay now and the penguin is alright. It wasn't that smart for the guys to post details on Facebook but it made the work for the police very easy, so they still get some punishment even if they where drunk.
  20. Those trains look awesome. I think there better than those very fake looking Eagle's on the Dollywood trains.
  21. Secret weapon nr. 7 looks very good in that video. But I'm still not convinced that it's a Gerstlauer Euro-Fighter seeing the plans. Wouldn't mind if it is but I'm not convinced it is now. Still wondering whats the "first" about it is knowing that SW have this history of being firsts. Can't wait for them to start building SW 7.
  22. Was thinking to go this year to Walibi BE but whit this news it will be 2013. Hope that the name can be related whit a coaster in Walibi NL. Why? I think these 4 Walibi parks must look more like each other now they look like 4 different parks whit the same name. So hoping Sound factory or something like that would be great for Turbine.
  23. Well that changed a lot whit last year. I mean of course the Mexican part. Well I see a ride on the former long flumes in 2013 and looking at the space I go for a water ride or a coaster. And seeing the bridge a guess it will be combined whit the ride. Was in this park for the last time in 2009 and it changed a lot since. The whole park looks different whit 10 or 20 new rides after 2009. And don't forget the 5 or 6 rides that have been removed. This park changes in a rapid speed that isn't to follow. Nobody knows what will happen this winter and how the park is in 2013. But its one of my favorite parks out there so 2012 I wonder what you bring to this park.
  24. Mr. Mack chairman Europa park used: "Whoa Dan" as pronunciation. Great on-ride from TPR again. Thanks for making it.
  25. A threat for all my trips to parks. First trip for the threat : Today a day Efteling. Reason for the visit was because the Parks season starts tomorrow and I wanted to take a good start. Came at 10:20 inside the park, which was later than planted. But yeah it makes me not off to the day itself. Entrance with 60 years logo: Started with a round of python who was deafening ticking. Saw little activity at the Flying Dutchman and George and the Dragon. So after the round of Python, I asked if they both would open later on the day (well you never know with the Efteling.) with good news. To the afternoon of the day I decided to look around to walk towards Bird Rok. Luckily it was not so busy here could straightaway and had a round or 2. Then the Dream Flight where I could go in immediately, nice quiet day here yet. It was still morning, but still wanted to see if George and The Flying Dutchman had there doors opened yet. So Walked towards Polle's kitchen what had a big day for it because it was pancake day so it was very busy at the pancake house. Park chairman Bart de Boer was there too in a funny jacked. A picture of cleaning up the pancakes day: On my way to George and Dutchman I notice some things, the bob ran tests so ran through it yet without any real hope that he still opened today because it would be in maintenance : Soon I saw the sign for maintenance stand and immediately saw some boats in the Piraña, I found this odd since I thought that it was closed till Sunday. Thats what I heard. But just went on it even whit the chilly weather, and then of course I got wet. Had already seen that George was turning so quickly just went to it, what was a wrong choice had to wait half an hour. Well Flying Dutchman still wasn't the boat that was in the dune house in the morning was gone, good news. : D So to Fata Morgana in a rush when I walked past the Bob I noticed that the sign was gone. Someone was standing at the entrance and told just 2 guests that he would open in the afternoon, again good news early opening Bob. Construction of Aquanura a photo: The Efteling was still busy to rebuild the Steenbok a eating facility. Photo of Burger Backery: Whent to Villa Volta now. Was not busy at Villa Volta because I was there with 2 others in. After Villa Volta I went in the direction of Bird Rok, and then to direction Ruigrijk because I felt like Dutchman. Arrived in Ruigrijk and Dutchman still was closed. So fast i toke something out of the wall and then the Python again. After the python I went straight for water George and it was less crowded now luckily right up the stairs. After George round I really wanted to ride Dutchman but when I walked by he was still closed to open after my back and thus I reversed toke a sprint draw and bingo Dutchman's first round with guests. Heard that there was a duck in Dutchman's harbor but it moved on to a other scene further in the attraction. I saw him and thought her must be a picture of, so: Decided to take a look at Bob, is he open yet? Answer was no. So creepy time in the Haunted Spookslot. After leaving the Spookslot I heard screams. Could only think of 1 thing: Bob is open. So up to Bob and I made a round. After some coasters in Ruigrijk I walked back towards Bird Rok. Then up in the direction of bob for another round this ended in 2. It was already quite late but ran to Dutchman's direction and afterwards could once again take a ride on the ghost ship. Had some time left and was thus a little for the latest rounds George (fire and water) after water ride finally came to the broadcaster who you says you really must leave the park, and so it was time to return home after this beautiful day. Thanks for reading my report.
