TXman308 Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 (edited) I was looking around and found a more complete video of the ride testing. Seems short but sweet. Edited April 24, 2012 by TXman308 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

australianalex Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 My god, these new S&S launchers that seem to be at every Happy Valley park really do look kickass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazywolf88 Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Let's just hope they're not a maintenance nightmare like the first few air launched coasters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vacoaster09 Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 It's June 2012.... any updates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 (edited) It's on their website listed as a normal ride: http://sz.happyvalley.cn/activity/2011/20115cf/snow.htm But still says: (尚未开放,敬请期待) Which means; not yet open.

vacoaster09 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 RCDB has it listed as open but I still havent heard anything or seen videos or photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vacoaster09 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 (edited) So i take it that the ride is finally open... Looks like the park shot this video. Three more videos. These are off-ride videos. I must say I love the sheer force and instant acceleration of S&S Thrust Air Coasters. Too Bad the only one left in the US is Powder Keg. I do miss XLC that 0 -80 in !!!1.8!!! Seconds. I believe Bullet Coaster accelerates to 80 in 1.8 seconds as well.

UrbanLegend Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Is there a reason that the camera kept randomly zooming out? Surely somebody can do better than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COASTER FREAK 11 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 LOL, what a terrible video! Looks fun though..I think. The track is very pretty, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DenDen Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 The random zooming is actually a new Youtube feature that eliminates shaking. We've used it at work, and for general video, it's actually awesome. For coaster videos shot with hand-held cameras, not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vacoaster09 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 (edited) Yea but it's the parks official video for some reason... WE NEED ROB!!! Edited September 7, 2012 by vacoaster09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.J. Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Rattle rattle? Here's hoping that S&S starts building these launched coasters here in the States. This ride looks fantastic - it could be a launched coaster that I actually would like! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vacoaster09 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Would you consider this ride to be the first to feature that figure 8 helix that Shambhala has... though this element was just smaller, not as inclined, and delayed (though constructed) for about a year. & vs. photos from Roller Coaster Database Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterfreak101 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Yeah, it's essentially the same element. Does it matter which ride had it first? Hoping to see one of these eventually come stateside - I'd love to have a launch as strong as Hypersonic's back here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vacoaster09 Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Don't think it matters which is first... its a cool element period, I just think its an interesting fact as there was not much known about this coasters layout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Yeti Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 This ride was built before Shambhala...I'd love to see a ride like this, or better, from S&S in the states sometime soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vacoaster09 Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Found an off-ride video of OCT Thrust SSC 1000 which is a mirror of Bullet Coaster (Shangrila Snowfield). LOOKS AMAZING... Can't wait to see TPR's Coverage of this ride from the recent trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
australianalex Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 These new S&S launch coasters really do look incredible. I like how they're fairly lengthy too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrygator Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Found an off-ride video of OCT Thrust SSC 1000 which is a mirror of Bullet Coaster (Shangrila Snowfield). LOOKS AMAZING... Can't wait to see TPR's Coverage of this ride from the recent trip. Unfortunately, OCT Thrust SSC 1000 was not completed at the time TPR visited the park.

vacoaster09 Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 But I know you guys got coverage of "Bullet Coaster" which is a mirror of this. I look forward to seeing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
