Fuji-Q Highlands Discussion Thread
Projektion replied to Ed's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
True, it's just I read it more as a translation of "Force measurement" rather than something specifically referring to the launch -
Fuji-Q Highlands Discussion Thread

I've read a few more news pages about it and as far as I can tell, they're not actually sure what caused the injuries, so they haven't singled out the launch as the cause. In my opinion, I think it could be the pot hole before the loop where it switches from the old track to the new. It was pretty bad when I rode it in January last year, so I can't imagine how bad it's gotten since then. -

Plopsaland De Panne Discussion Thread

Name is a bit pants, but I can kind of see where they're coming from with it since it follows the naming scheme Tomorrowland use for their main stage ("The book of wisdom", "The elixir of life", "The Reflection of Love", etc). That said, the theming will look phenomenal if they manage to follow through on the concept art. I guess the stage set designers needed to let off some steam after the 2 years of the festival not happening. -

What is your next park?
Projektion replied to onewheeled999's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Next park is maybe Fuji-Q. I say maybe since I may be doing Tokyo dome or joypolis the day or 2 before, but not quite sure on that yet. -

The park 2020/21 opening calendar was posted on their Instagram Stories earlier. Main changes include the park opening for almost the entire month of October instead of only weekends and the park will begin opening in December. -
Such as? My problem with Hakugei is just that most of the elements seem so stretched out (The double down after the outward banked wave turn and the overbank being the main examples) compared to the more relentless look of the top RMC's. One of the ones I like to point to for what White Cyclone could have looked like at it's full potential is by CoasterMac305 on YT. [youtu_be] [/youtu_be] As I said, as much as it could have been better and I expect Hakugei will end up being an upper-mid tier RMC, It will still be one of the better rides out there. Hakugei is probably going to end up being my first RMC, so all this lowering of expectations on my part could lead it to absolutely blowing me away.

While it would be amazing, it just doesn't seem possible. Gwazi is a pretty big ride area-wise, but it just doesn't have the height/beefy structure to accomodate a 212ft tall coaster compared to like Mean Streak/SV. I could maybe see it happening if they literally tore the entire ride down and only reused the footers, but even then, it's a stretch.
