Vekoma Pandora's Box
coastered replied to Mechanic's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
This Pandora's Box ride thing, will be a combination of a darkride, a shot-n-drop tower and a robocoaster. So this will be the most freaky looking thing when ever there will be one of these build in the future. -
I'll hope you are here after this coaster will be open for the public at May 22. But when I am at SeaWorld in September I would really like it to meet Robb and his gang to ride this great rollercoaster. Because back in 2006 when i was visiting SFMM, I was not able to meet Robb and his gang to ride Tatsu.

What happend to the G-Force Dragsters (Fun Spot USA)?? I'm going to Orlando in September, and wanted to visit all the themeparks in the area. But I also want to visit Fun Spot USA, because of the Sky-Coaster and G-Force Dragsters. But some time ago at Screamscape.com I found some news about G-Force Dragsters being relocated to a new location somewhere in the Orlando area. But the latest news was that the ride was for sale. Do you know more about this ride and if it really gets a new location?? I don't need information about that replacement simulator-ride thing.

What are the most busiest days in Orlando themeparks?? Because i want to visit Orlando in September, i'm already searching for information about themeparks, hotels and all the other stuff. I would really like to know what days of the week could be the busiest in all the Orlando themeparks, and offcourse Busch Gardens. Beacause I don't want to battle huge crowds. On the website www.intercot.com I found a list with the busiest days at Walt Disney World, so I only need the busiest days at Universal Studios, Islands Of Adventure, SeaWorld and Busch Gardens

Favorite first drop on a Steel Coaster
coastered replied to SpectralN's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
My favorite firstdrop would be Expedition GeForce backseat. First you enjoy the great view from the lifthill and then with great force you are pulled down the first drop. But the strangest firstdrop i have done was on Sequoia Adventure (Gardaland). This is not really a firstdrop, but the first time hanging upsidedown is very strange. -
Most memorable coaster moment of 2008?
coastered replied to TheHulk's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The best rollercoastermoments i can remember from 2008 are........ My first ride ever on TPR's number 1 rollercoaster, Expedition GeForce, at 6am in the morning. And my first rides ever on Nemesis (Alton Towers) at the end of the day, after this rollercoaster was broken down for almost the whole day. -
Alton Towers Discussion Thread
coastered replied to Ed's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I don't think this will be Secret Weapon 6. Air and Nemesis have a much more impressive layout compared to this new rollercoaster. And if you want to compare this with Expedition Everest. This new rollercoaster looks like a kiddie coaster. And also Revenge Of The Mummy is much more a rollercoaster then this thing. -
The Rumor / Crazy Idea Superthread
coastered replied to Wes's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The flume will be leaving the park next year, but this has nothing to do with the 2010 rumor. The big thing for 2010 would be a B&M hyper coaster that will be located near the parking. -
What are your TOP TEN COASTERS
coastered replied to ddaver177's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
This is my top 10: 1 - Expedition GeForce (Holiday Park) 2 - Tatsu (SFMM) 3 - Riddler's Revenge (SFMM) 4 - Katun (Mirabilandia) 5 - Goliath (SFMM) 6 - Black Mamba (Phantasialand) 7 - Batman The Ride (SFMM) 8 - Xcelerator (KBF) 9 - Stealth (PGA) 10 - Deja Vu (SFMM) 11 - Colossus (Heidepark) -> My highest ranked woodie But i think this top 10 will be different after visiting some themeparks in the UK this fall. I really think Nemesis (Alton Towers) and Stealth (Thorpe Park) can make it into this list. But Alton Towers, Thorpe Park and Blackpool have more great rollercoasters. -

Most inversions on a coaster

Right now it still is Dragon Kahn (PortAventura) with 8 inversions. But in 2 months time it will be Colossus (Thorpe Park) with 10 inversions. All the 8 inversions of DK are allready listed in this topic, but the 10 inversions of Colossus are still missing. Vertical loop Cobra Roll Double corkscrew 5 zero-g rolls -
Favourite Vekoma!
coastered replied to Sasquatch's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I have a couple of favorit Vekoma's. 1 - It used to be called Stealth @ Paramount's Great America Now this flyer is located at Carowinds (Nighthawk) I hope to reride it next year. 2 - Deja Vu (Six Flags Magic Mountain) This is the highest, biggest, fastest, meanest and smoothest kind of boomerang rollercoaster in the world. 3 - Invertigo (PGA/CGA) This is the only Vekoma i had a blackout in, not from the smashing but from the g-forces. First drop was backwards. -
When will this Harry Potter land be fully operational?? I really like Harry Potter and want to see and ride everything when I am going to visit Florida in september/oktober 2009. I really hate it when rides like Dueling Dragons are closed when I visit the park. Things like that allready happend in 2006 when I was in So-Cal in september. X (SFMM), Ghostrider and Perilous Plunge (KBF) were closed.

Photo Mirabilandia Italian park
coastered replied to Mirabilandia Forever's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Damn, that is bad news i think. That new rollercoaster will be an Intamin launched coaster instead of the rumered B&M hyper. But we already have many launched Intamin coasters in Europe and only one B&M hyper. And in 2009 Germany will have the worlds fastest launched rollercoaster. The new themepark at the Nurburgring racing circuit will open a S&S launched coaster.
