Gutterflower Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 The parks suspended looping coaster is made by the same firm and it has already been copnstructed. Its a rip off of the BSA and BJA suspended loopers we have seen pop up all over China... However it somehow manages to look even more painful... Just look at that transition.
sammmmmy Posted October 16, 2011 Author Posted October 16, 2011 that color scheme is absolutely GORGEOUS No but seriously why is it brand new and looks like its 60 years old..
Gutterflower Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 ^ For some reason all 3 of the Chinese companies that produce this layout paint the rides after they have been built. I imagine the coat of paint will be added soon. (the website suggests it will be Red with blue supports)
GigaG Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 (edited) to the 2nd power? Is there any signs of the 11 loop coaster? And do u have any more pics of the ripoff SLC? Edited October 16, 2011 by GigaG
TPDave Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 ^^ Wait, so they build it and then paint it? Amazing.
Midgetman82 Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 (edited) ^^Hah, I see what you did there! This company is awesome! Maybe they can build a ride here in America one day... . That Suspended coaster looks beautiful! Edited October 16, 2011 by Midgetman82
Gutterflower Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 to the 2nd power? Is there any signs of the 11 loop coaster? And do u have any more pics of the ripoff SLC? Afraid I've found nothing yet. This pops up on a few sites. I do have more pictures of the SLC. I shall sort them out and put them up in a sec
GigaG Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 So essentially a taller mirror image of Colossus with an extra loop and the hill crosses the exit of the cobra roll? ^^Hah, I see what you did there! This company is awesome! Maybe they can build a ride here in America one day... . That Suspended coaster looks beautiful! Well, Vekoma is cleaning up their act with the Carolina Cobra trains. Also, Boomerang at WOF is not horrible. Then again, the only Vekoma I regularly see is Woodstock Express @ CP .
coasterfreak101 Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Wait, so there's a company that makes knock-offs of the Chinese company that makes knock-offs of American favorites like SLCs and the like? This is like Inception, but with life-endangering rides...
GigaG Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 ^Actually, I believe that Vekoma is Dutch and Intamin is Swiss.

I love Vekoma and will sometimes take a riding one of their coasters (Preferably an SLC).
Gutterflower Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 ^^ thats pretty much the gist of it. I wrote a short guide to the Chinese Rip Off SLC market here http://vhcoasters.com/chinese-slc-guide/ I'm going to have to update it with this new company though. I found loads more pics of the SLC the other day but the site is down at the moment Theres a few rubbish ones below.
coasterfreak101 Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 ^Actually, I believe that Vekoma is Dutch and Intamin is Swiss. I'm aware of that. What I'm saying is that there's a Chinese company ripping off another Chinese company which rips off our "favorite" types of rides. I shouldn't have said American - SLCs are all over the place! So replace "American" with "enthusiast favorites," and that's what I was trying to say!
accelerate Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 ^^The people in the second picture are reminiscent of the Mafia!
B&MIntaminGCI Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 I would like to see them attempt to recreate a Beemer, it would be very entertaining and also sad to see, what would probably be a really pretty ride (since all B&M's are photogenic) but turn out to be such pain (unlike real B&M's). But isn't B&M's track patented or something so that no other company can use the box track style they use?
Gutterflower Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Anyone else think that the drop on the SLC is a bit special? I mean it looks like it has a massive kink in it.
bottom_feeder_13 Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 LOL, I just noticed that. Also I imagine that that airtime hill will be nothing short of excruciating.
sammmmmy Posted October 16, 2011 Author Posted October 16, 2011 Oh lord, if the drop has that huge of a pump, I can't wait to see what the loop looks like
_koppen Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 Anyone else think that the drop on the SLC is a bit special? I mean it looks like it has a massive kink in it. Yes, but it's just a play on You're eyes, coming from the suports.
coasterfreak101 Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 ^I don't think so - the turn after the sort-of-sidewinder also looks like it has a banked straight piece of track. Doesn't look very nice!

coasterbill Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 [attachment=0]Jinling5.jpg[/attachment]Anyone else think that the drop on the SLC is a bit special? I mean it looks like it has a massive kink in it. It looks like it was made in RCT3
Moose Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 I can't imagine that it'd be worse than a real SLC. How could?
