Ledgy Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Thanks Robb, did also realize that, after my post But will follow your tip. I´m sure this is another dump question and asked before thousand times, but didn´t read something about it. Is it possible for everyone to go to such a convention like IAAPA or the European Version? Or what do I need to get this chance one time? EDIT: Wow, great complete coverage! The videos are very interesting. Hope you enjoyed your stay there, like I did with your reports! Thanks for getting me through my nightshifts with them It seems like I will first travel with you all to Japan and after that I´ll be in "Mission (to) Space" at the Düsseldorfer Rheinkirmes - full of painfull moments But I still wonder what coaster will replace Olympia Looping in the next years, we´ll see... Thanks to Robb and the rest who made this report possible!
Hhappy Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Robb (and everybody else involved) Thank you so much for your time. Loved the report the pictures and video's. Noticed a bunch of familiar pictures in the stands as well (which is always fun) and am truly looking forward to next year. Is it really winter time now??
cfc Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Mum. Well it just better be ready by 4/2/11 for KD's opening day. Or else what? The angels might cry? Once again, thanks for this look at IAAPA, Robb. There are many interesting projects in the works for 2011, and I'm particuarly intrigued with what Intamin and ProSlide are up to.
BrownStreak Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Pretzel cones FTW! Thanks for all the updates, Robb and team! I want to know what happened to the ice cream hot dogs that they had at IAPPA a few years ago. It was like they split a twinkie and then had a chocolate log laying in it- they looked really good.
ScottBrown Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Thanks for doing such thorough coverage for all of us that couldn't be there Robb "Im not known for doing exercise " the best quote of the whole thing

Gmaster562 Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Is there a video of you on the Aqua Loop Slide?
rollin_n_coastin Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Awesome stuff again! Thanks for sharing. The videos rock. Did you notice any trends/ changes over the past year or two with respect to food, games or rides? Any thing that looked like upcoming 'must haves' at parks? The water park queue system looks like it'll have great potential and success. Cheers, J

xingfu Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Awesome job on the coverage! Those Proslide models are an awesome use of the color 3d printers. o wish i had one of those and the resolution looks great. I have an urge to model a slide now. Thank you for all your work!
robbalvey Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 (edited) Is there a video of you on the Aqua Loop Slide? First of all, no, sorry to disappoint you. Secondly, they didn't have a full Aqua Loop slide just the little trap door section. I hope the other 90 minutes of IAAPA video we will end up posting will hopefully meet your expectations. --Robb "No matter how hard we work. No matter how much information we post.

Wes Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Prince Desmond is still up in the air vent at the convention center, according to his Twitter. Someone please go save him! Finally got a chance to look through all the coverage this morning, awesome work Robb!!
Guy T. Koepp Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Prince Desmond! Just the name alone elicits waves of laughter. Awesome work Robb. Enjoy the rest of your stay.
WildStangAlex Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Thank you so much Robb for sharing all of these fantastic pictures and producing videos of this Show! By far the best coverage of the event! It seems like it will be a really exciting year for so many companies this year!
Joe Cool Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Again awesome updates Robb. Loved all the updates and videos!! ProSlide is just amazing, cant wait for the BowlingAlley and Tantrum Alley slides to take off in the US.
robbalvey Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 There will be two more IAAPA videos coming later tonight! Keep an eye out for them! --Robb
robeclay Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 I live 30 minutes from NRH2O. I'm going to check out the Python next summer. SOOO EXCITED!
snowboard83 Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Hmmmm. Alberto Zamperla mentioned the motocoaster at Luna would launch at 100kph?! Did that seem accurate, or a mistranslation? Because that would kill all the other motorcycle coasters from both Vekoma and Zamperla. Also on the subject of Luna, was there any indication the flying coaster would definately be the same old layout? I'm sure I know that answer, seeing how it is the one from Elitches, but a guy can hope, right? also.....THANKS FOR THE AWESOME COVERAGE OF THE SHOW ROBB!
Brandy524 Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 I didn't read all the comments, so someone may have already mentioned this, but the Proslide with the clover rafts (the green and orange one) reminds me of Brobee. Thanks for the great coverage guys!
Calicoasters Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Thank you guys for all your hard work capturing all of IAAPA! It has been a great week, coming home from work and having so much new and cool stuff the check out everyday.
FLIPDUDE Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Wow! Fantastic photo TR, Robb! I love IAPPA, and hope to go there one day, somehow. I'm a totaly geek for miniature models, so all these little coaster models and waterslide models are making me drool... Those slides look like they belong in a gift shop! I WANT THEM!
XII Posted November 19, 2010 Posted November 19, 2010 Awesome job covering IAPPA Robb. These updates have really got me excited for the 2011 coaster season.
