Skyline Park

[Projektion]

Edit: Nevermind, already posted.

The park's owner seems quite confident.

 

New rides in 2017 and 2018.

One of them will be as tall as the park is allowed to build, which is 150 m.

 

"That one will be quite an eyecatcher."

Interesting project!

^^ Polercoaster confirmed. Or not. I'm not so strong with my German.

[RCT3Bross]

^^^ If he is talking about the coaster they have plans to build it really soon. I really hope this gets build.

[RyanTPM]

^I agree, it'd be great to see it in 2017 or 2018!

The land has been cleared...

That's a pretty large area of land. This is a very intriguing project.

[RyanTPM]

^^Looks like there's a long way to go before opening, are they still aiming for July?

^Thanks for posting the update, good to know they've finally got some track on site!

[RCT3Bross]

It's really hard to keep track of construction of this ride, but good to see track on site looking forward to see this ride rise up.

[JordyC]

Not too sure what to think about this..

[kickflipbacktail]

So is this going to be mono tracked? That's an interesting choice. Does anyone know any structural pros and cons to mono track? Also I'm having trouble wrapping my head around how banking would work with mono track, unless the chassis pushes against a section of flat track.

[Shavethewhales]

^Well, the pro would be stronger in strong-axis (vertical) bending and the con would be it's weaker in weak-axis (side to side) bending. So I'm guessing this coaster won't have a lot of turns? Is it more like one of those old dragster rides?

[Henry M]

^ Well, it is called sky dragster, it will be motorbike themed. I am not sure what it will be like though, but I am amazed they feel it will be open in 2016!

[RCT3Bross]

Wow took me by surprise. The word "interesting" comes to mind. Looking forward to the final product and train design.

[Henry M]

Whoa, look at the stats for the acceleration. Looks like it will be a face lifter coaster! Does anyone know what propulsion device this ride will use and the manufacturer?

1.2 Acceleration G! This thing will go fast.

[K1ngdaKa88]

But didn't they say it will feature airtime moments? Because I don't know where they want to put the up-stop wheels on the track

[Henry M]

I was looking at the track and thought the exact same thing. Even without ejector airtime, all modern rollercoasters on tacks feature neg G wheels.

[RyanTPM]

Well i certainly wasn't expecting that, it's just made this project a whole lot more interesting!

[RCT3Bross]

Might I ask where you heard this, I know they said thrill ride and we have the control on the speed.

[Henry M]

Another interesting thing is how there are so many interpretations of what the train and final track will look like. See the pictures below for the main interpretations of the final design. I do wish the park would give us some more information.

Two abreast seating, in a train.

Single car? Note the normal track compared to the mono rail being used now.

Mono track, with nobbles, and shows the banking in the track. Looks like only single cars too, with only two passengers, like final picture.

The show car.

^^ Good find gives me more an idea of this ride.

 

^Thanks. Funny that they say the feeling of airtime and not just airtime. Also maybe that I look at it in a different light now, but 100 Traction is also said, that at least means the trains are fully locked on the track not just placed, might have been an early tip.
