Well... This thread just went from 0-100 faster than Dodonpa....

Although, let's be fair- you've all cringed at the sight of one at some point in your life.

Well, there's two here in Jeddah, so... Yeah, there's multiple ways you can ride them. If you're on the outside seat by yourself, brace for it, cause you'll be at supersonic speed.

The Surfrider here in Jeddah is painfully loud. The LSMs seem to screech like chalks on a chalkboard instead of that Intamin roar we're all used to. Especially since the park is very quiet most of the time, and the only noise you hear is the Surfrider. Honorable mention to every single S&S drop tower in existence.

Perfect coasters don't exi--

That looks like a fairly decent ride. Golden Horse is really stepping up their game! Love the theming!

I don't think so. As I said earlier, S&S's newer combo towers have been really weak. Zamperla makes better towers than that.

I'm not sure if I should laugh my @$$ off or be triggered

Cinecittà World. If you see anyone there that isn't a staff member, rub your eyes and blink a couple times, 'cause you're probably hallucinating.

Formula Rossa. Personally, I think this ride is excellent, but the hype killed it. The launch is epic, but the rest of the ride is anything but special. Just some forceless turns with sort of floater airtime hills in between is nothing to scream about. Still manages to be my 3rd best roller coaster, somehow.

Another video incoming! Honestly, I think Hershey's tower looks pretty underwhelming if you ask me. I think out of the three, either Kisses or Reeses tower would be the best actually. I mean- did you SEE how they slam to a stop when it reaches the top???

That's so cool! Considering they don't have a drop tower anymore, I guess why not have two things in one?

Not this again. Anyway, still pumped to see what they're up to! Hopefully the next few years will be a turning point for this park!

Cinecittà World: 2017: Ride relocations and renames 2018: Nothing 2019: " 2020: Park goes bankrupt and closes down 2021: All rides are either relocated or scrapped. Yeah, this park ain't going anywhere.

This is just an early stage of testing, so they should be testing the Turbo Drop sequence as well sometime soon.

Oh, Elissa, you ain't seen nothing yet. Wait until you come to Saudi Arabia. Sidewalks here in Jeddah are pretty much non-existant! (Except for the seaside and a few places here and there) And those that are there have really messy patches of vegetation on them, which makes them pretty much useless. Anyhow, this TR looks great! I wish the UAE wasn't as expensive as it is, so I could head down there more often!

This last part of the TR got me like: It's.... Beautiful! The Tokyo Disney parks are now most definitely on my bucket list!

Good lord, who had to write the sales sheet for that one? "This is your chance to own one of Scotland's b̶e̶s̶t̶ most "thrilling" theme park attractions! Ride includes t̶w̶o̶ one gently used trains̶. Ride has only run for 16 days since it passed it's last comprehensive safety inspection by our in-house safety inspector who has since b̶e̶e̶n̶ ̶b̶a̶n̶n̶e̶d̶ ̶f̶r̶o̶m̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶p̶a̶r̶k̶ ̶d̶u̶e̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶h̶i̶s̶ ̶b̶o̶r̶d̶e̶r̶l̶i̶n̶e̶ ̶c̶r̶i̶m̶i̶n̶a̶l̶ ̶n̶e̶g̶l̶i̶g̶e̶n̶c̶e̶ retired.

[uPDATE] A recent construction video has come out from a French news station, and from the clips shown, it seems like they are close to completing the core tower structure. From then on, they'll just need to assemble the track. It's starting to look great! I wonder how it'll change the park's skyline! On a final note, they mention at the end of the video that the ride should be opening on the park's opening day, April 8th.

Wow that was a quick edit, ninja fingers. Sorry I'm not that much of a geek that I know what S&S towers exist outside of my immediate area, let alone on the other side of the planet. It was a legitimate question. Didn't think I was being a dick, but I guess you think I am... carry on. It's Ok, Boldikus. I don't blame you. I'm saying a lot of these things because I'm noticing more and more that S&S's newer towers (their bigger versions like the Combo Tower and not the smaller Double Shots) seem a lot slower than their older ones. I'm a b!tch for drop towers, so I've really got my eye out for things like these :3 At one point (obviously before the test footage was released), I was tempted to make the bold hypothesis that the Reese's tower was going to be the best tower out of the three (Kisses being a close second) Since D2 at Adlabs Imagica in India is so forceful (and exactly the same ride), and Hershey's being the worst, since Sochi's drop tower looks more forceless than a Zamperla Z Force. And then that video was released. Let's just say my reaction was a paradigm shift to say the least.

Fixed that for you. Fair enough. I mean- the best ride at CP is obviously bound to be the best in the world, amirite?

^I think he means sake, but whatev. New Mean Streak is looking amazing! We may be looking at a new best ride in the park!

Herhsey's Tower is testing as well!! Wow! It's a hell of a lot more forceful than its Russian predecessor! I'm optimistic now!

If that's the case and no trims are involved, we may as well be looking at a potential 200ft tall loop! That sounds messed up, but I love it!
