rctneil Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Looks excellent. June is edging closer and closer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmatsuNL Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 No way -- that looks insanely fast! And it looks like there's also a buttload of airtime in there, as well as some awesome positive Gs. Also love what looks like a slightly gliding feeling through the launches. Incredible. This looks like one absolutely fantastic coaster! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loefet Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 A little note for tomorrow, and official night testing video will be posted tomorrow, so expect an even more awesome video than the one posted yesterday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcjp Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 ^Great. It's always good when parks take time to shoot some testing POVs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KBrylczyk Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 If this rides like the other Mack Blue Fire coasters, every single one of those inversions will have airtime. Yes, the inversions. And the hills. Basically, we're seeing the most airtime-filled coaster in the world. And not just any airtime. Ejector airtime. Excuse me. I need to go find a time machine to get to the Scandi trip right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anac0nda Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 That is one long ride Not to mention how beautiful, graceful and greatly paced it looks! As mentioned previously, you can see that the launches really look more like boosts, especially the second one. But to me it looks like the second boost, while maybe lacking exploding power, it could provide an interesting leading to the tophat. Because the track is inclined while the landscape beneath descends it could give a feeling of high altitude already before the tophat, so the actual element could feel even higher. Also it made me feel a bit of inevitability as the train cruises through the long straight track towards the daunting tophat, so I think it could even be good thing to have such a long piece of straight track to kinda get your thoughts back together, only to lose them again as the train enters the second part of the layout! I applaud Liseberg for Helix. I bow to them. P.S. It's my birthday today, and what a day it has been so far! Helix POV released, Banshee POV released, and I saw IRL what might have been the first ride of Kingi (the freefall tower in Linnanmäki) with actual people onboard! No doubt the best b-day so far!

vacoaster09 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 This ride looks incredible. I love the lights on the train... The transitions are relentless and are very well laid out! There's not a dull moment on this coaster. Kudos on the design team on this ride on both the layout and aesthetics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.J. Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 That's a really substantial ride. Kind of fitting considering Liserbegbanan is itself a substantial ride as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerstlaueringvar Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 After watching Banshee's POV, I feel the transitions on this one is pricele$$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterfreak101 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Looks absolutely awesome. A little too dominating on the mountain for me, but the ride itself looks flawless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gisco Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Looks awesome. Now we just need to hear what people think when they get to ride! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loefet Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 ^ I among others can definitely give you a review on the 23rd-ish Looks absolutely awesome. A little too dominating on the mountain for me, but the ride itself looks flawless. Wait 10 or so years from now and it won't any more, the new trees needs some time to grow until the whole nature area on the mountain is restored. Just imagine how epic it will be zipping around the track in the dark with trees everywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Sabo Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 The park did an AMAZING job with Helix. I love the placement of the ride and I'm so glad they went with this layout. The POV was AWESOME and the ride appeared quite a bit longer than I thought (even with the marketing/promo POV videos). Time to book my next trip. Thank you Liseberg for an amazing ride!

Slem Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Just found this http://www.gp.se/gptv#nhofexbUF4KMJoLSzlZcpw on Göteborgsposten website. It's a video partially containing the POV fotage that has already been posted here, but also POV from the rear of the train (both looking backwards and forwards) and some Off-ride fotage. Enjoy!

mwoods244 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 THIS is what YOLO should have been. Magic Mountain really missed the ball on this one. Helix looks crazy intense. What a great addition to that coaster hillside they have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
