apollo210 Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Spin Bullet is a new spinning coaster for Joypolis. While it's sad to see such a unique ride go, this should help the place with capacitie reasons. It'll be 2 minutes long and have 2 lift hills. It'll open on July 15th. The builder is unknown though. http://www.rcdb.com/id3604.htm This is the rides RCDB page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SharkTums Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 Um, I think you are confused. No one died on Speed Boarder, in fact it was open in January when we were there. Someone died on their freefall ride and that has been scrapped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could have sworn that Speed Boarder was closed after an incident though, but it's not the first time I've been talking complete bollocks. And for the record I am sober!

Homer Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 I'm still amazed that a SEGA park doesn't have a Sonic themed coaster... I could've called it Sonic Spin Dash... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECZenith Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 They're replacing the coaster that goes through the weird tube sections? That coaster looked fun, never knew they closed it. Oh well, hopefully I'll be able to see this new coaster for myself next september. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Worm Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Is that the coaster that goes all the way side ways, and advertise you in the window? or Is it the coaster in the video of the park where dan sits to the left? Hope that maked sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therooboy Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 This sound excellent and will be open in time for me to ride in September. With Eejanaika,Tower Of Terror & now Spin Bullet its looking a great year for new ride openings around Tokyo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timetrial3141592 Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Speed Boarder is the one that advertises you in the window. The "tube" coaster is Geopanic. "Geo because it's in the earth, Panic because it's a Togo ride!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rollermonkey Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Duane Marden clued me in to this one a week ago. When I return to the Tokyo area, I will be heading out to Odaiba to check this out, but it does have a lower priority than EJ or the ToT. At first glance, based on the description and location within the arcade, I thought that this might be Speed Boarder with a new train type. Also, the closure of Speed Boarder was very recent, occuring in the last three mothns or so. So I figured either that, or a stock model. I guess I'll find out in a couple months. If anyone else gets out there, let us know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerekRx Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Crap, no Speed Boarder for me then. Oh well, at this rate, by the time I finally go to Japan they'll only have like 20 coasters total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rollermonkey Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 I wouldn't worry about there being THAT few coasters over here, Derek! Only the US has more than Japan, but yeah, lately there does seem to be an unusual number of park closures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECZenith Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Phew... Geopanic is safe. Looking forward to yet another weird coaster to add to the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
