Juggler Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Drove past it Monday morning heading south and there didn't seem to be much left to put up to be honest. Looking forward to putting this park on the visited list this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shavethewhales Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 That coaster will suck, no doubt. Typical twelve year-old enthusiasm. Why will it suck, because it's not a perfectly-smooth B&M? Because it won't have disney theming? Because it didn't cost 20 million dollars? Maybe it won't be the greatest ride on earth, and it could, possibly, end up being a bad ride, but we don't know yet. All I know is that it sure looks like a load of fun to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr.gumbo Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 ^^ I 'think' because he lives in Stockholm he has ridden its semi-clone (Where it is situated) and obviously didn't like it. However, despite not have ridden it, I think it looks very good (one of shcwartskophs (not sure how to spell it) best) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollo210 Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 The obvious reason why he doesn't like it: Its not a super amazing B&M/Intanim with disney theming, a high pricetag, not at a well known park, and doesn't have an airtime filled layout with a lot of inversions and turns. Simple as that . ^Seriously, I agree with you, he lives in Stockhom and he might not have liked it, or the reason I had above. Personally, I think this ride will be great! If R&E liked it, it has to be good. The ride has one of those amazing looking diving turns and the first part seems spreadout and fun! That's my opinion but diffrent people have diffrent opinions (But Tobias' sucks). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

viking86 Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 I have been on Jetline and I really liked it. Its not amazing or anything, but its a nice, fun ride with some very intense helixes. Judging from Robb's video, Jetline seems like a better ride. BMRX seems to be trimmed quite alot during the ride, while Jetline never slowed down until the final brakes when I rode it last summer.

pbeesley Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Hi, I went over with the family today and took some construction photographs, looks like its going to be a great ride for the park. http://ridemad.com/camelots-knightmare-coaster-construction-photos#more-60 Cheers Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobias94 Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Now i have to say that it looks cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstroDan Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 I can't wait to see this ride in action! Delighted it's going up. I have to say i was skeptical when I saw the state of it all from the early photo's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to say i was skeptical when I saw the state of it all from the early photo's. I had the same concerns, considering it was in the field for so long, the track isnt exactly clean but im sure they will sort this out.

Ryan King Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Ok.I'm sorry. Its great to have an opinion, don't get me wrong. But if you say it "sucks". Then back yourself up! Until you have PERSONALLY ridden it, you cant really say it did or didn't suck! -Ryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr.gumbo Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 Update from UKrides www.ukrides.info/camknightmare.htm Its finished and its looking good (could do with a lick of paint though) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RollerC Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 Are they going to paint it? The rust color makes that section of the park look very drab and depressing...expecially with the sunset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyGiles Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 It won't be as good without the mountain it's meant to come with. Is the park shipping that from Japan too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Divv3k Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 The mountain will not be a part of Knightmare. From the reports the mountain added nothing to the ride and from the POV I kind of got that impression too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shavethewhales Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 ^It sure added looks at the very least. I'm sure it would have been better with a facade, but I can understand them not wanting to go through the trouble of building one. It did look so awesome before, maybe someday...

Anyway I think it looks great, it looked awesome in the BMRX POV and it might be better once you can see where you are going half of the time.

robbalvey Posted May 15, 2007 Author Share Posted May 15, 2007 The mountain will not be a part of Knightmare. From the reports the mountain added nothing to the ride and from the POV I kind of got that impression too. I would disagree! The mountain was very cool! Gave you a better sense of speed as you went flying in, out, and around it. There were quite a few really good headchoppers too. And the lift totally enclosed was awesome. And it also looked really cool from the outside! Still should be a good ride without the mountain facade, but the mountain did add quite a unique, fun element to the ride. --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
