  1. Hey Guys Check out some of these pictures of Yokohama Cosmoworld in Japan The guy who takes these pics has an eye for gorgeous photos. Or how about a little disney Plenty more can be found on here http://tokyoyakei2.halfmoon.jp/yokohama/mm21/yokohama-landmark.html and here http://tokyoyakei2.halfmoon.jp/yokohama/mm21/yokohama-mm21-1.html Check out the entire site of pretty awesome photos here http://tokyoyakei.cool.ne.jp/
  2. ... yes well ....
  3. THese are the best shots ive ever seen of this ride. seems pretty hard to photograph to me http://www.rctd.ft6.com/uploads/eaglesfort1.jpg http://www.rctd.ft6.com/uploads/eaglesfort2.jpg
  4. can u imagine bubble wrapped supports? id never leave... Pop... pop.. pop... POP.... *sigh*
  5. agreed. the 2nd half of the ultimate is just insane. And the first half althoguh calm in comparison makes the 2nd half seen that much better
  6. I rode G-Force last year and thought it was just plain bad. However i rode Abismo last week and thought it was amazing (TR soon). The X-cars a good idea and can be pulled off well. but G-force is not a good example of this.
  7. Not sure if this has been posted but a quick search suggests no. Another screaming Squirrel has opened up at WOnder Island in Russia. A different design too. http://www.divo-ostrov.ru/rus/attractions/extreme_zone/forsage/forsage.htm Looks quite bizzare lol. Edit Heya as usual im doing more research as i go along http://ex-magazine.ru/news/publ/p1-61-divo.html A couple of small but very elightening pictures there. much different to the previdous version. also it appears they just got a screaming swing to go with it too. Edit 2 http://foto.rambler.ru/photos/m/o/mostopic/Divo/Forsage01/Forsage01.jpg http://foto.rambler.ru/photos/m/o/mostopic/Divo/Forsage02/Forsage02.jpg much better pictures of the SS http://foto.rambler.ru/photos/m/o/mostopic/Divo/Wing01/Wing01.jpg And the swing
  8. Since someones done malaysia ill cover thailand If your in the Bangkok area at all, theres a few nice parks to visit. Dream World as mentioned above is a lovely little park and is quite easy to get to. well worth a visit. although they do seem to have a seperate entrance/cost for forigners... There are 2 coasters at Malls in bangkok which are easy to get to by taxi one is a rubbish zierer coaster and one (although shut while i was there) is a long twisting DPV build coaster. Theres is also a Meisho Shuttle loop to be found at Siam Park to the east of the city which is easily reached by bus. Theres also a small park in Pattaya on the coast which has 2 very interesting coasters and a zip line of a hotel. Although i havent been to this one. Anyway if you need any help or directions i think i can still remember my way around so just ask Also on another note. Gentlings flier wasnt the first in asia. Birdmen was. Although it did close down eventually.
  9. if you guys want to read the artical (with a little drawing off some sort of layout (ish) ) check down the page here http://coaster.fc2web.com/ Scroll down to the little image of the pink layout and the label USJ Theres too much to babel fish onto the forum but if you please you can get some info from the translation
  10. Heya. let get back on topic hey? I didnt scroll through the whole post but i did a search for the link. so i dont think this has been posted yet http://www.nagashima-onsen.co.jp/fdata/fd157_1.html with a babel fish translation this usually very reliable site http://www.geocities.co.jp/Playtown/5777/ has it down for opening again soon too
  11. Im sure ive heard the words "Catastrophic Engine Failure" more times and you'll have to fly to get to taiwan . an interesting quirk in human nature. my girlfriend will always get in a car with my friends yet wont ride some rides because they look dangerous. "Familiarity breeds fimiliarity" or something like that...
  12. Heya I have loads of great pictures of this. Unfortunatly im working in Spain for 2 more weeks so i cant get to them till then. But If you Send me a PM ill remember and get to it when i get home. Looks like the best suspended if you ask me. and the only one R&E have yet to ride if im not mistaken? Cheers Dave
  13. Heya Just came across these testing pictures on my usual trawl round japanese sites. http://bbs6.fc2.com/bbs/img/_93700/93601/full/93601_1151596266.jpg http://bbs6.fc2.com/bbs/img/_93700/93601/full/93601_1151595940.jpg Source: http://bbs6.fc2.com/php/e.php/coaster/ Looking Good. Unfortunatly im off to spain for 5 weeks so i'm going to miss opening and such. But im sure you'll get there before i get back and find any pics Chris . I look forward to it Cheers Dave
  14. superman in aussie comes close to being on the right. but otherwise your right. it is rather odd.
  15. Hornet i think was my first proper roller coaster many years ago good to see its still running.
  16. it does suprise me that they dont have fences with todays silly "Blame and Claim" society. But i have to agree with everyone else. there is no law for fences... you wouldnt run into the middle of a busy road. and they dont have fences.
  17. heya guys. after a quick look i couldnt find exact dates. what days are you lot at AT and TP. ill be at AT on tuesday and at TP on friday. so may just be able to say hey ho a long shot but worth asking cheers Dave
  18. not much of an update but found these pictures of what appears to be brake run and the final half flip pieces arriving. Source: http://bbs6.fc2.com/php/e.php/coaster/
  19. all is not lost. you can still ride a pinfari corkscrew There is a clone of Tornado (although i guess not a clone now) called Hurricane at Center Norte in Argentina http://www.rcdb.com/ig1511.htm?picture=2
  20. its going to be the worlds first completely supportless, free standing ride
  21. I'm pretty sure that myth is rubbish. But people will believe in conspiracy theories
  22. Still not much news on the flier. but i did just come across this. from that model it does indeed look like a S:UF clone. however check out that themeing and even if your thinking the models never turn out the way they look. OCT seem pretty damn good at themeing their parks
  23. there is one of these in venuzuela (sp?) too if i remember correctly (not on the RCDB either). i believe its a clone.
  24. Just out of interest who says an aqua trax HAS to be launched? theres no reason i can see why this cant just be a traditional water coaster....
  25. I've been asking around on some japanese sites on their opinions and thoughts of the name. The 2nd one strikes me as a bit odd but fits with what a few people have said.
