Olov Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 Between the second airtimehill and the third, there's a roll, too bad they didn't have any high resolution imeages, but it's there.
viking86 Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 And just when I thought I couldnt be more excited about this ride
ncf Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 Between the second airtimehill and the third, there's a roll, too bad they didn't have any high resolution imeages, but it's there. Looks more like an S-turn to me :?
KingdaKa Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 Between the second airtimehill and the third, there's a roll, too bad they didn't have any high resolution imeages, but it's there. you're right, there is a roll !! 8) So fellow viking are you going to Tusenfryd this summer ?
CoasterCrazy Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 Between the second airtimehill and the third, there's a roll, too bad they didn't have any high resolution imeages, but it's there. After reading your post I want to ride Speed Monster 100 times more than I already did! 8)
ncf Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 I don't want to sound negative, but there can't really be a roll on the bottom between 2 such hills, and I honestly can't see it either But I wish there was though...
Real Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 ^ I agree with him. Theres certain "laws" for certain elements and that breaks the law. Something isnt right with both the drawing and the render. Wish we could figure it out!
ncf Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 It's gone vertical! I'm a bit dissapointed with the size... at least from what it looks like from those pics http://english.rides.nl/attractie/fotos/1209
SharkTums Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 Yeah, a bit smaller in real life...so much like Kanonen!!!
viking86 Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 Oh well, its still gonna be fantastic and Im sure it will pull some serious G's in the bottom of the pretze loop
viking86 Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 Hopefully Even wont kill me for posting this link but you just have to see this. It looks AMAZING!!!! http://home.online.no/~evstange/100_4025b.jpg :shock:
Hicko Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 WOW :shock: Looks awesome. Can't wait to see what it looks like complete.
ECZenith Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 Wow! is the only word that comes to mind. Looks like a steel Boulder Dash from that angle.
DATman Posted November 5, 2005 Posted November 5, 2005 Well, Rita has definitely been OWNED by this coaster, hopefully it can own all the others too. If this thing had a Top Hat, it would even beat Superman in Aussieworld, or, at least, it looks like it, since it has inversions AND air hills, and will use the same restraints as Superman
Hattuchili Posted November 6, 2005 Posted November 6, 2005 Wow, that looks awesome. I can´t wait to ride it next year! --Sören
coasterking Posted November 6, 2005 Posted November 6, 2005 But since when does there have to be a top hat for it too be the best. The air hill start looks better to me at least. Rita doesn't have any hill at all which kills it.
ncf Posted November 6, 2005 Posted November 6, 2005 But Rita still has the best air-time I have ever experienced so far...
DATman Posted November 6, 2005 Posted November 6, 2005 I mean that a top hat before the inversions, and that top hat should just be straight, no twists, the ride would be even more insane. Also, I'm surprised that more people arewn't focusing on this ride, unlike Superman (though it is the first of it's kind in Aus.) because this one, to me, looks like it may be better, but I'm going to wait for both POV's untill I decide, as I'll prolly never be able to ride them
MARK Posted November 6, 2005 Posted November 6, 2005 (edited) Superman isn't going to be great just for it's coasterness, it will have a darkride section before the launch that, as the Rabid One from Ozcoaster.com tells us, will match Disneyland style darkridey-ness. Which is, I daresay, unseen in intamin rockets. Edited November 6, 2005 by MARK
DATman Posted November 6, 2005 Posted November 6, 2005 ^Well, let's hope they go as all-out as Disney, otherwise the Dark-Ride section will become like USH Mummy, which had SO much potential, but fell short. Let's not forget that some of the effects that they advertised were just put in the ride, and I have yet to see the launch through the Face of the mummy, like the sand part, and that was supposed to be in the ride
Mind Eraser Posted November 6, 2005 Posted November 6, 2005 I thought USF Mummy blew away just about any Disney ride I've done. I mean, compare to Rock 'N' Roller Coaster: "Ooh, look at that cardboard cut out that just flew by!!" As for the Superman Accelerator Coaster, I think it looks kind of lame, in my opinion. I am saving judgement until after I "get to know it a little better" though. It just doesn't look too ... I dunno. Speed Monster, from the artwork looked lame-o! But, after seeing the picture of it today - WOW! I'm really excited about this one.
MARK Posted November 6, 2005 Posted November 6, 2005 You all do know the story line to superman escape, right? If not, here it is (sorry, I know this is off topic: last one)... SUPERMAN ESCAPE will be an unprecedented rollercoaster ride experience with an exciting pre-show adventure themed around the world's most popular Super Hero. Guests will commence their adventure in a Metropolis subway loading dock. As they travel through the subway, a terrifying earthquake takes hold and threatens their safe passage. To escape the catastrophe, Superman rescues guests by propelling their carriage out of the subway, then vertically upwards at 100km per hour! What follows is an exhilarating and hair raising rollercoaster ride experience like no other on the planet...

KingdaKa Posted November 6, 2005 Posted November 6, 2005 http://www.rcdb.com/ig3245.htm more pictures ! Looks great 8)
