Voxelmatic Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 This looks like a solid addition to an already great line-up! It's long and has inversions AND airtime (I'm looking at you SFMM) to please the enthusiasts and the general public. I hope I get to ride this thing!

ginzo Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 This confirms that all TPR trips, whether they're to Europe, Asia, or the Moon, should offer at least an add-on to Liseberg and Grona Lund. Fixed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProwlerPrey Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 Wow this ride looks incredible. Liseberg was already on my bucket list of parks to visit and this just made it even better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnome Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 Wow incredible! Wish my local themepark had invested into something like this instead if what full throttle actually is... Im definately feeling envious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voxelmatic Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 But I'm really starting to wonder, Is MACK trying to be like Intamin? Apple will probably sue them . But, hey, it's better than trying to be Pinfari, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netdvn Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 Anyone know why Liseberg decided to announce this ride two years before it opens when most parks announce their new rides the year before? I don't think Liseberg's announced any of their other major rides this early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 Anyone know why Liseberg decided to announce this ride two years before it opens when most parks announce their new rides the year before? I don't think Liseberg's announced any of their other major rides this early. I'm pretty sure the drop tower was announced more than a year out. You have to remember, the way the market works in Europe isn't the same as in the USA. And I would imagine that a project this size will require them to start tearing up that mountainside, close attractions during construction, etc, so they probably want to give people a heads up on what's going on. I also think it's funny that no one seemed to notice that they ALSO announced a new kiddie coaster for the 2013 season! Furthermore, Liseberg has had a number of roller coasters for children. The first one was called Lilla Bergbanan and opened in 1977. It was commonly called Lady Bug because if the trains design being modeled after a Lady bug. In 1986 the attraction was redesigned and it’s name was changed to Cirkusexpressen, until 2008 when it was replaced by a new roller coaster called Rabalder, which is still in the park. In 2013 Liseberg will launch another coaster for even smaller children - Stampbanan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grinch1313 Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 This coasters looks so awesome! I'm for sure in for TPR's Scandinavia tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
australianalex Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Holy crap, it almost doesnt look real! It looks like a kickass coaster someone would build in No Limits but never expect to be built in real life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bottom_feeder_13 Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 SFMM take note, 4 airtime hills and 6 inversions. Looks great and like what Full Throttle could have been, now to find a way to get to Sweden in 2014. Mack heartline rolls FTW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

appleboy007 Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Wow!! This looks amazing. Way to go Liseberg. I'm looking forward to riding this. More importantly the TPR 2014 Scandi trip. Soooo excited!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theonetheonlyJT Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Airtime+twisty goodness+inversions+awesome terrain hugging+ride interactions = one epic coaster! I really like how dark and ominous the video and graphics are The video should have started with YOLO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Yeti Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 I was very surprised to hear they were adding a launched coaster knowing they have Kanonen, but was ecstatic to hear it is coming from Mack! This really does look like one of the world's best looping coasters, but it'd be too hard to tell without riding first. I love that it's a launched looper with 3 good airtime hills and some great inversions. Though I think Intamin's Norwegian loop looks preferable to this Pretzel Loop, Mack's corkscrews look gorgeous on Blue Fire and this ride seems no different. Thank you Liseberg and Mack, for showing us how awesome both of you are. Liseberg went from a top 20 destination park to a top 3 destination park for me, and this just seals the deal that if I built an amusement park I'd save a spot for a Mack looper. For some reason, I think Liseberg is the only one getting my money in this life. -I also love the random math equations in the video from Liseberg. What's up with all the Full Throttle mentions over the last pages of this thread? Six Flags probably had that ride planned since Green Lantern was built. I don't think it's what Full Throttle was supposed to be or should have been...maybe could have been, but never would have been . The video should have started with YOLO Okay, except for that "mention," Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon8899 Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 It's long and has inversions AND airtime Blue Fire has an inversion WITH airtime - the last rollover ist propelling you out of the seat. Hope to have multiple of such inversions on this beauty... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.J. Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Zee Germans are really stepping up their game. It looks fantastic! I don't like the video render though. A lot of places, the train's going too slow on the track. It's just a pet peeve! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
