Lagoon Discussion Thread

The last seat hasn't been installed for some reason, perhaps for equipment to test the ride. -

Here's the much awaited Cannibal Test Run Video from Easter Sunday taken inside the park! -

I Can hardly wait to ride it in August! -
Knoebels Discussion Thread

Thanks! I'm happy they did indeed go with the Booster Seats! With the On Board Monitoring System mounted to the Back of Each Train, it's not really possible to switch them around though. -

That looks even more Whacked than the one on Wicked and Cannibal! -

Agreed! So far I have not been very impressed with Gerstlauer's Layouts, but this one Looks GREAT! -
Knoebels Discussion Thread

I think the Trains on Wicked look a lot better with the Mechanics for the Laptrays Hidden and the Less Clunky Looking Laptray Bases, again, covered in Diamond Plate. It also appears Knoebels didn't get the Trains with Stadium Seating either. I also wonder why they didn't go with the Booster Seats to get the Minimum Height down to 46". -

Wicked hits 4.85 Gs, so I would imagine Impulse would be Similar. -
Lagoon Discussion Thread

I saw someone wearing that in LA, really mature. Does Lagoon do the maintenance of Colossus in house or do they contact Gerstlauer for it? Lagoon doesn't need anything from Gerstlauer, as Lagoon got rid of the Congruent Silicone Wheels, Installed their own PLC several years ago, Intermountain Lift did a Little Work on some Track Sections I heard, and the Wheel Housings are still in Good Shape. Lagoon is entirely capable of Machining their Own New Wheel Housings for Dragon, as they did for Jet Star 2. The Gerstlauer Built PLC on Wild Mouse is a Different Story. -

Lagoon is in Farmington, Utah, roughly Half Way between Salt Lake City and Ogden. Logan is more than an Hour away from Lagoon, where as, Lagoon is only 20 Minutes from Salt Lake International Airport. Yin, "SL,UT" T-Shirts are quite a Popular Tourist Gift! lol -

The First Time I saw the Elevator Platform Track from Intermountain Lift, it looked like it would use the same type of Bogies on a Coaster Train. I wonder if this Make's Cannibal 2 Credits? lol Actually 3 credits because the elevator has two sides. You are BRILLIANT! How did I not think of that? -

If he was an Engineer for Zierer, I'm not totally surprised it could happen. The Evening Wicked first Opened, Zierer's Engineers were walking under the Brake Run, with trains coming into Reduction, with the Bogies just Inches away from their Heads. I've seen Mondial Engineers get dang close to operating Rides as well. -

10 Stators on a Cross Section of Track to Launch a Mouse Car or a Single Line of 10 Stators? -
PowerPark Discussion Thread
linearinduction replied to mad_dog_BB's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Gotcha. I think the ride that will push LSMs to their limit will be the one that uses a line of 3 Belilim Stators from InTraSys GmbH to launch a Train, but could a Train take that much? -

Lap bar only? LAP BAR ONLY?! You are talking about a park that would not accept anything but Lapbars on Wicked after all. -

This isn't a Euro Fighter. This is built in house by Lagoon. It's best described as a Turnkey Project Headed by Lagoon, with them Supplying the Concept and Design, with Component Fabrication Contracted out, with the Structural Engineering for the Ride done by the Primary Supplier, ART Engineering GmbH. -

Every Member of "Lagoon's Fun Time Club" E-mail List got the Same E-mail. Cannibal will not be opening on March 28th, but a Lagoon Spokesperson told me that "Cannibal will Open in 2015," so take that as you want. Waiting for Kärnan to catch up? Hahahaha! Kärnan won't be breaking any World Records Like Cannibal is, not to Mention World Firsts. Coasterdude was Mistaken. ART Engineering GmbH has Supplied Trains for BomBora, Wonder Mountain's Guardian, and is Rumored to have Supplied Cannibal's, which hasn't been Officially Confirmed yet. -

Not that late, obviously, but the Ride must Perform to Lagoon's Safety and Performance Standards before Lagoon's Owners even get to ride. -
