viking86 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Looking good! It's always nice when you actually start seeing a ride coming together. Looks like it will be well integrated in the terrain. Thanks for the update! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
per2012 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 I am very impressed of what they have been able to do in just two days Two days ago Today I also took this picture from the outside of the park through the fence. I think that the thing to the right is where you will come out of the tunnel and then it will take to the left and go into the maelstrom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking86 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 So if we compare to the concept art, which part of the ride are we seeing in this pictures? It looks to me to be the part between the final drop and what looks to be a wavepool. However I cannot tell for sure... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
per2012 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 This is what the webcam shows EDIT Tusenfryd just uploaded some new pics In the picture you can see the small second drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeoBruz199 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Tusenfryd has gone downhill since the Spanish Parques Reunidos took over in January 2008. They are not exactly praised here on the site either and they own probably the least exiting parks in the world, except maybe MIRABILANDIA in italy. I agree with what you said, that Parques Reunidos is making a lot of their parks go downhill, but with this phrase, I beg to differ. Mirabilandia might be good, but it's seriously going downhill. It's only had ONE good thing come out of Parques Reunidos, and that's iSpeed. And Divertical has drained its money due to maintenance issues, a ludicrous price tag and negative PR caused by said maintenance reasons. I know that it's just pointing out something small you said, but actually it is supporting what you said about Parques Reunidos being a bad company. Tusenfryd being a part of it has not been something that great either TBH. Maybe this new rapids ride, from what I''m understanding, will be OK, but they might need a new thrill ride sooner or later.

viking86 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Tusenfryd have posted some more construction pics on their website. With temperatures rising above freezing it really helps the concrete casting process. More pics can be found on their website: http://nyhet2016.tusenfryd.no/2016/01/29/stopingen-har-startet/ Picture by Tusenfryd Picture by Tusenfryd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
per2012 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Here are some more pics from TusenFryd Lots of steel The pool at the end is massive. I just hope they will put in some fun elements there. Huge pool before the lift up to the station And one more cool thing while I remember it, Ragnarok will be the first ever TusenFryd ride to have a Singel Rider line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vekoma_fan Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 This is starting to look great, and its nice to finally have something more in this area of the park. But its about time they start planing a new coaster, more exciting then (Western Expressen). I would be happy just getting a Boomerang, but I hope for a Inverted coaster, don't need to be the biggest coaster, but a small and fun inverted. (They could get something similar like Daemonen at Tivoli - but Inverted). Small, cute and fun! But that being said, still happy for a water-ride like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
per2012 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Remember that the 30th anniversary is comming up in 2018, they might allready plan a coaster for that year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vekoma_fan Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I don't believe it untill I see it ;( Perhaps they think about making a Maelstrom ride? Haha! *Maelstrom forever!* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paradox Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 This looks like it will be a really cool rapids ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 That section "between" the dark ride and Super Splash, to me, always looked like it needed something to bring it all together. This looks like an excellent way to do it. Looking good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
per2012 Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 TusenFryd just uploaded a new video from the construction site It looks great now. TusenFryd also made their parking space bigger as you can see in the video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StealthFan Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 I can't be easy doing all this work in the snow so fair play to the construction team for freezing their balls/boobs off to get the ride done. As it stands right now I hear by name this ride "Concrete: The Ride" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

viking86 Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 I'm starting to get a bit more excited about this. Really like how they are building it into the terrain. Will be interesting to see when they finish the ride itself and start with scenery and theming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking86 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 I suddenly realized that I had completely forgotten about this ride, so I decided to check out Tusenfryds website for any updates. Turns out they posted a video on April 1st, showing that the concrete casting is nearing completion. Looking forward to see the progress once they start on the scenery and theming around the ride.

RyanTPM Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 ^Thanks for the update, looks like there's still a long way to go before opening though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking86 Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 ^Definitely! The park opens for the season on April 23rd, but they have not set an opening date for this ride. On their website it only says "Opening summer 2016". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On their website it only says "Opening summer 2016". Can't wait to see the first onrides of the darkride parts. It seems like a good extension for this smaller park! They missed a good water ride in my thougts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainChaotika Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Can't wait to see the first onrides of the darkride parts. It seems like a good extension for this smaller park! Smaller park? From the European point of view it's a major park (and the biggest in its country). When I think about a big park it has more than 3 "large" rollercoasters. I personally can't even imagine a place like MM or CP with so many coasters. Back to topic, looks cool especially the theming on the concept art, haven't seen one of these being built for a while now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking86 Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 To be the biggest park in Norway doesn't require much. But I agree with you in the sense that I wouldn't call Tusenfryd a smaller park. Although I'm not sure if I would call it a major park either, more like a mid-range European park. Definitely major by Norwegian standards though...

viking86 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Not really an update, but I like this picture Tusenfryd posted on facebook a couple of days ago, as they get some local help to fill the log flume with water. *The big number 8 is because it was 8 days until the park opening when the picture was posted.
