sam06pr Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 This place seems to have a lot of land where they can expand. This coaster looks awesome. Hopefully they can get more sexy rides like this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FitchCoaster Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Hmm, I think we need a ride kind of like this in the US. This looks like tons of fun. Â Is it just me, of can you see this type of coaster at SFMM where Psyclone used to be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loefet Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Intamin hasn't abandoned the traditional lift. They give their customers what they want. The new coaster at Hershey is going to have a chain lift, albeit not traditional at 90 degrees, but a chain none the lessThe one on Hershey is a chain lift due to the fact that the lift is vertical, which means that it needs a stronger lift chain since the whole weight of the train hangs from it. But on more "normal" coaster lifts I think that they have started to move from chains due to cable-lifts are less complicated.    New pictures of the last piece going on the ride: http://www.piratland.dk/?PageID=434&Gallery=Byggeriet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aflack Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Anyone know when this ride is suppose to open, I'm planning a trip to Northern Denmark and would like to ride this and the new coaster at Farrup Sommerland? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steffen_Dk Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 This place seems to have a lot of land where they can expand. This coaster looks awesome. Hopefully they can get more sexy rides like this one Actually they'll build a whole new area around this coaster. In a press release it says: Selv om Piraten er en af de største enkeltinvesteringeri en dansk forlystelsespark nogensinde, er den blot første trin i en storstilet udvidelse af Djurs Sommerland. Over de næste år opbygges et helt nyt tematiseret område i tilknytning til den nye rutschebane, og planerne herom vil blive offentliggjort på et senere tidspunkt. And for those who don't understand Danish, it means: Even though Piraten is one of the biggest solo investments ever in a Danish theme park, it's just the first step in a great expanding of Djurs Sommerland. Over the next years a whole new themed area will be build in connection with the new roller coaster, and the plans about this will be released later on So I'm just waiting   Anyone know when this ride is suppose to open, I'm planning a trip to Northern Denmark and would like to ride this and the new coaster at Farrup Sommerland? I think it's supposed to open when the season begins, which is: 1st May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cprocks22 Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 I agree, It looks amazing. But does anyone else think that it travels a little slow over some of the hills? I'm guessing part of that is A) Colder weather B) Empty train and C) One of the very first runs, but even then it seems slow to me. Am I crazy?
