  1. I found a great POV, very smooth. http://nettv.aftenposten.no/player/player.php?id=604&category_id=5 I must say that lat part took me by surprise, had no idea it was there
  2. the video links dont work for me?
  3. Actually Israel USED to have alot of tourism, especially in Eilat, and our economy was based on it, but with the beginning of the Intifada, tourism has dwindled alot, Aquira is part of an attempt to get tourists to go back there again. Eilat is actually quite full of nice stuff. Israel is overall a great place for vacation. It's not norht of Tel Aviv, it's actually at the bottom of the country, right at the border with Egypt(we're in peace with them, tho, so now orries) as for the rides - -I read the park will have several themes, such as hollywood, new york, and many more, so that explains the king kong and water tower stuff -the water coaster seems to appear in all three versions of the park map, so is the triple looping coaster. Im uploading the other park maps, as well the smaller map If you download it and zoom in you can see some stuff that resemble the first map: -ring of fire -3 loop coaster -strange fmaily coaster -triangle by water, though it looks different now -log flume/aquatrax thing -2(?) halfpipe coasters -observatio
  4. NEWS: This post was posted back in 2006. To view an update of the situation look further down the page. Well, a while ago they have announced that they're gonna build a new amusemen park here in Eilat, and it should be extremely awsome,w ith epople who worked on parks such as disneyland to help. It is said to have a water park, world-class rollercoasters(which we're obviously missing), and many many more. There have even been several maps going around, and they even have an area all fenced up, after the goverment took the ground from some Kibbutzmen. now here's the thing: Israel isn't really known for following through with projects, there are many cases of projects who were announced and not completed, or severly delayed, for example a mall with three skyscrapers on top has been announced, and after it was built, the third skyscraper was nowhee near finished and jsut sat there for several years, theys tarted building it again now, though. but ont he other hand, we also had a new biblical themed theme park open and a new ride added to one of my home parks, so in order to stop me from wondering all the time, Iw as wondering if someone: -1: heard anything about the project? -2: Knows usually how long it takes to build an entire amusement park after te area is fenced up Here is some of the information I have about the park: http://www.harriscivilengineers.com/international2.htm After googling the project, I came across this site, which says it will be responsible for engineering the park. I was excited to see htis because another one of their projects is the alantis hotel in paradise island. http://www.nrg.co.il/images/archive/wallp/315/846.jpg One of the three possible park maps released. This is one of the more optimistic ones, there was also anothe rmap released, inw hicht he park was shown at about half it's size in this map. can anyone make any details on any ride here? Im especially curious about that weird triangle nnear the water
  5. what's the percussion game thing?
  6. no such thing. Israel has no coaster industry. We thrive on Vekoma and Pinafari replicas. Oh the shame. the boomerangy shame...
  7. Ride? Ride my OSTR, that thing doesnt require any ocnstruciton! We had that here, in Israel, and we rarely have anything cool! you just roll down a hill. but if they built some sort of slide for it to go in, Ig uess that owuld be wicked. but you would be spinning aorund too frantically, nay?
  8. seriously? They didnt even release Wild! Here yet
  9. ^ It's the same coaster. I reported it to RCDB. And I assume something is photohopped there because that shot is an advertisement shot, but the coaster basically looks jsut like that. It has no magor drops, just one, and it's not steep and has brakes all over it. It's not there for the sake of being a drop, it's there for the sake of bringing the train down from the height it travels in over the course.
  10. There is an indoor amusement park in a mall in the city of Haifa here, and when Iw as there I saw a coaster, that although it was so sucky it can almsot bring Goliath Jr. to shame, I still couldn't figure out anything about it. what company built it, what track type i it, anything, was hoping oyu could help: http://www.cuponofesh.co.il/zimimages/92922111050958.jpg
  11. flip flap railway. I died while on it because of the extreme G forces and since then I haunt amusement parks and related websites.
  12. Knowing RCT in 3 months they'll probably make a one-box purchase of bothe expansion packs for the rpcie of one. if you could wait untill now, you can probably wait untill then.
  13. ROFL, far from it, actually, there's a big forum on Tapuz with many coaster enthusiasts. I did an online questionnaire and won a free ticket to Luna Park Tel Aviv/Superland, whcihever I ch oose. interested in a link? You need to be one of hte first 25 people to answer it at any given day though
  14. I love PKD ^-^ Did shockwave and king cobra exist simultaniously?
  15. I was just wondering if there's another Israeli coaster enthusiast around here
  16. Thanks, man. I'm going to my suck home park this weeka nd you have made me regain my lsot respect for it
  17. Wow, it's so bad... I think it might even be worse than my home park! And tha'ts saying osmething ebcause my home park uses TINY POTTED PLANTS as scenery for the main rollercoaster attraction!
  18. what do you mean? unless Im mistakena nd theres more than one knoebels park, there should be some big rides there
  19. how come you didnt post any picutres of the big rides?
  20. I meant how come so many people stayed in the city instead of going somewhere else for the duration of hte hurricane, and ending up part of that 4/5 of the population that didn't make it.
  21. how is that different from what I said?
  22. Holy f', dude... o_o That's 8 out of every 10 people! That's insane! How come so many people stayed in the city? youd expect at least 2/5 to get out before it striked, and another 1/5 to have survived regardless of it
  23. no such probelms when I was there. o_o I dont think I met a single foreign ride op, as a mattaer of fact.
