RCT3Bross Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Walibi Holland Isn't going to sit still after the opening of Lost Gravity this year. In 2019 the park is going to invest again in a brand new coaster. Thats what CEO Mascha van Till promises in a interview. She isn't ready for any details. But Van Till said that the budget will be bigger then Lost Gravity, that will open next month. "It will be something completely different. We always look for things that you can't find in other parks." Also in 2017 Walibi will open something new. The working title 'Brain Trip', reveals the boss on "BNR Nieuwsradio". "It's going to be something of an other caliber. You're going to experience something." There at least won't be any virtual reality goggles. according to the Ceo of Walibi they don't look at other parks for inspiration. Van Till lets herself be inspired by other companies. "What are big players in the theater-world doing? What can you find in the stores?" Source Looopings.nl Well nothing about Lost Gravity but this promises so much for this park future. Sounds good let's see what it will end up being.
KBrylczyk Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 ^ I love that rip at the VR crap that's becoming a thing.
RyanTPM Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 ^^They're planning on opening Lost Gravity next month? quite early to say we haven't yet had the official announcement yet
KBrylczyk Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 ^ The track is complete, I'm sure they've already put the trains on the tracks, maybe even some night testing. Just because there's no announcement doesn't mean it's not ready to go. Look at Tempesto.
RCT3Bross Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 ^^ They already announced quite some time ago they will open the ride on openings day, 24th of March, 1 P.m. Might not have been posted here, but this has been confirmed by the park.
Rill'o'beily Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 I'm so happy they're opening lost gravity because i'm going to walibi holland in the end of march/start of april
KBrylczyk Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Looks nice! I'm curious about the odd pavement placement, especially since it looks like it leads directly into the rear of that bus and stops. Also hey, good use of old shipping containers, haha.
RCT3Bross Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Please let that crane be theming, it fits so perfect. Well the worst part of that joke is that I wouldn't be suprised if it is true.
Nrthwnd Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 ^^ Maybe the bus will be 'levitated', since Lost Gravity to me means things are not staying on the ground? Just an idea. The whole thing looks great!
RyanTPM Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 Really like how the rides name is on the shipping containers at the end!
BDG Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 Mack teasing the shipping of Lost Gravity's trains (or cars)... (sitz forne = German for "front seat") photos: Mack
RCT3Bross Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 ^^ I let the analysts analyze the which kind of wheel this is and wich train it fits with the strap. But front seat? Wait do I get the feeling of a train, I thought that would be to much with that drop. I love it.
gerstlaueringvar Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 So done with all the teasing! Here's the REAL train!
StealthFan Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 Yes finally we get a train thats themed to bubblewrap!
Projektion Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 (edited) I don't know how I feel about this. I probably would have preferred some sort of spinning train like everyone was expecting. Found the image on PA-Community, not sure where they found it from. Edited February 19, 2016 by Projektion
RyanTPM Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 ^I'm not so sure either, it looks quite ugly. Maybe it's the colors i don't like though because it's an interesting design for a single car.
CoasterMateo Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 It kind of looks like Intamin Wing coaster seating..
KarlaKoaster Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 That's exactly the kind of train I'm expecting, although are we sure that's not just a fan-made mockup?
Projektion Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 Potentially, no source was given on PA-Community for where the image came from, but it makes sense given the wide catwalks on the lift.
gerstlaueringvar Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 Nice, it really is Mack's take on Infinity Coaster. Edit: ^ It was on Walibi's Snapchat as well so it's confirmed. I screenshotted it:
BDG Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 Nice, it really is Mack's take on Infinity Coaster. It's the world's first Wingfinity Coaster. not the actual Mack product name
KarlaKoaster Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 I think it could be a cross between a Gerstlauer Infinity coaster but with (short) Skyrush style trains which would also explain the catwalks on the lift. Just a guess based on what we've seen so far though. Ooh, I posted this in December, do I win anything hehe. Thanks for confirming that it came from an official source, I'm surprised it has a vest restraint as their Mega Coaster restraints are almost perfect but I'm really looking forward to giving this a ride as the layout is so strange! (and hahah BDG, that would be an awesome name)
gerstlaueringvar Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 (edited) ^ Almost two weeks earlier Could it be Mack's version of Euro Fighter/Infinity Coaster? Like 2-4 rows of 4 across seating cars. And it's just the restraint bars, it's not vest restraint. Edited February 19, 2016 by gerstlaueringvar
