That's weird because Farup has already a coaster named Lynet (the powered one) -

In fact, it's confirmed... The ride will be 540m long and will feature a top hat, two camelbacks, two inverting elements (some king of very banked Stengel dive and a corkscrew) as well as an overbanked turn -

Already disapointed ? Ok I have more ! - 2 Turntables, yes, but no backward drop, the little drop between the two turntables will be taken forwards - No bunny hop after the big drop Atlantica was already tame but this one, wow...And the best is : you don't get even wet -

I think it would be nice being the biggest GCI Coaster ever built with a world first, for example a S first drop... -
California Screamin' - LIM or LSM?

Ok I understand... with this system you juste dont need anti rollback, the LSM used as a launch and a security system thanks to the accumulated energy. That's clever -

I'm pretty sure that the Half Pipe are LSM launched. I visited Särkänniemi two years ago and I was able to see the backstage of Half Pipe and the frame of the train. There are no metal fin under it, its permanent magnets, so it can only be LSM. Plus the LIM on coasters alwys work with two motors, not one Here are the LSM on Half Pipe and on the Ball Coaster. The same system will be also used on the new Cedar Point's coaster
