Howdy all

 

Just came across this interesting new ride for 2008 at Beijing Shijingshan amusement park home of the worlds best imitation SLC and the recent Disney character scandal.

looks like one of those old Caripro suspended rides... but with bigger drops.

Is it me or does it remind u of a cross between Vertigo in Belgium and something from RCT?

even better this is one of 2 coasters for next year with a new sitdown planned

that looks just like something you'd build in rct...notice the straight drops and the sudden 90* turns. I didn't think Caipro still built rides, could it be one of those chinese company look alikes?

My guess would be that "Beijing Shibaolai Amusement Equipment" is building this one. This company is behind that SLC imitation.

 

Caripo went bankrupt and sold their desings to Premier Rides. Premier Rides is the other possibilty.

I'm not sure what you're getting at. All mice have straight drops and sudden 90* turns. In fact, most of them have more turns than this one.

 

Somewhere in the world there's another suspended mouse, with a layout more like a normal mouse except they did bank the turns on it: http://www.amusementvideo.com/view_video.php?viewkey=23406c6cecf84a7ebb0f

basically most "straight drops" have curves to them right? a gradual entrance and exit.

 

put a ruler up the the screen near the drop it makes a straight line so it's a literal "straight drop", and the 90* turns are like wild mice yeah.

The RCT comparisons are because the track literally looks like it's built in pre-designed sections, like just hooking pieces together instead of fully calculating the curvatures of the track to somewhat match the physics. Just look at that first large drop there, it looks like a piece of RCT straight track, a connector piece, a medium sloping downward piece of track, and then another connector to a straight piece.

idk, looks can be decieving, if this is successful I wouldn't be surprised to see this at parks here in the US

 

Meh, I hope not. It looks neither all that fun or thrilling compared to everything else out on the market. It reminds me of that Caprio creation where there were 4 seats set in a circle that spun around slowly as they went along a dull, gradually sloping track. It was inventive, yes, but not practical or as fun as other options.
