coastercrazy216 Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 It looks fantastic and I love the redesigned restraints!
GeorgeT Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 As tripsdrill seems to be a littlebit unshure where to put the minimum height requirement for the little ones...here`s actually a photo of the first testruns. Here`s a very little one right before launching...the expression in the eyes says it all (Source : Coasterfriends)
ernierocker Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 (edited) They are starting that child out right! Edited June 17, 2013 by ernierocker
Meteornotes Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 Very cool looking trains! Looking forward to riding this at some point. dt
Geauga Dog Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 Very impressive looking cars. I like the LED's on the back. Have to give Gerstlauer credit for tyring different restraints on their rides instead of just relying on one type.
spinning man Posted June 17, 2013 Posted June 17, 2013 I feel sorry for the people who are nervous on getting on the ride. Instead of people saying kids have ridden the ride, they can now say a baby has ridden the ride. Those trains look amazing. I love how they made the whole theming on the train and the mechanical sections on the train, all look like one. Though I don't know the story of the ride, I love the theming on the train.
coasterfreak101 Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 It's so cute! That should be a good little finale when the MCBR is cut back a bit - the dive loop should be forceful and the roll looks more like the second one on The Smiler (which is getting much more praise than the first one)!
GeorgeT Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 The train totally stopped in the MCBR. Looking at the whole layout this thing will probably be much faster during the second half of the layout later...
rcjp Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 If, like most eurofighters, the MCBR does little trimming during normal runs I expect that second half to be pretty intense!
DJeXeL Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 (edited) Another testing video: Coasterfriends FB Looks to be some very nice airtime to be had at 1:03. Edited June 19, 2013 by DJeXeL
bottom_feeder_13 Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 That top hat looks like it will be epic, great airtime and also some good rotation, I'm a bit bummed that the airtime hill isn't taken a little faster but the rest of the ride looks really quick and forceful.
ernierocker Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 The train totally stopped in the MCBR. Looking at the whole layout this thing will probably be much faster during the second half of the layout later... Exactly. I assume the MCBR is also a holding brake, so they could just be testing to make sure the ride can make it back to the station in case of a full-stop on the Mid-course brake. So many great looking coasters opening up in Europe this summer!
coasterfreak101 Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 Oh wow, I didn't even realize the dive loop goes straight into a tunnel. Awesome!
alexinla Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 The ride looks awsome (and like someone mentioned earlier "cute" aka perfect for this park), but the last video almost gave me a seizure, what's up with all the black screens ?!?! There was more of that compared to actual footage of the ride. I am all for being creative, but if you only have 30 seconds of material, there is no need to stretch it out to 2.15 minutes
Swimace Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Wow! I had no idea this ride even existed! It actually looks really good for a compact launched coaster. Good thing I will be in Germany in a month or so!
Seregon Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 The second car has arrived http://www.coasterfriends.de/forum/3022-2013-neuheit-karacho-gerstlauer-launch-coaster-erlebnispark-tripsdrill-84.html Source: coasterfriends.de
matteocrepaldi Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 This one looks even better than the first one! I really want to go back to Tripsdrill and ride it now!
SuperShawn Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Hoping with such great trains, that the station etc. will have a story and equally good detail. Which does any one know what the theme/story of the ride is?
FreeFaller Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 ^ It's true that Tripsdrill won't be able to finish theming by the end of the year, but be prepared to get an AWESOME theming. Tripsdrill is a well themed park. I'm pretty sure it will design something unique!
Seregon Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 Very cool "Coaster-Train-Unboxing" Video http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=AGdM4dDFvGs BTW: This Crane reminds me a lot of the Transformer Movies^^
