I305forever Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 ^ It's China, of course it will be bizarre. Thank god it's not another knock_off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerstlaueringvar Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Doesn't look as tall as I expected TBH, but this could be just a test version and the China one could be a taller version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linearinduction Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Perhaps this is where the Neon Green Premier Track and Blue Columns are going? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gutterflower Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Here's the latest image of the pretzel coaster that came with the most recent issue of FD. Looks odd from a different angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerstlaueringvar Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Ok this looks like a lamer version of the lamest Euro Fighter. Please Vekoma you can do much better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPmillenia94 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Umm hold up what happened to the premier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRC Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 These pictures where taken today at the Vekoma Factory in Vlodrop Netherlands, not at Premier Rides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPmillenia94 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 ^Exactly.. So again, what about the premier? Seems like there's been no news whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grsupercity Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Thats some interesting looking Vekoma track Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.J. Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 It probably looks that way so the track spine can act as a support, kind of like on boomerangs and the B&M / later Intamin giga coasters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRC Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 I was thinking more like the lifthill of Expedition Everest in AK. Wich also is build by Vekoma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_koppen Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 ^Exactly.. So again, what about the premier? Seems like there's been no news whatsoever. The Premier went to Holiday Park and is called Sky Scream. The Chinese mall ran into financial trouble and the rides were put on hold. This Vekoma ride they are trying out here is probably not going to the Chinese mall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I305forever Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Will the Vekoma coaster have a vertical drop as well as a vertical lift hill or just a vertical lift hill? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcjp Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 ^ It doesn't look like the drop will be vertical. Here's the latest image of the pretzel coaster that came with the most recent issue of FD. Looks odd from a different angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingRCT3 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Wow, the layout is uninspired... But the best part about that drawing is to see that Vekoma will uses off-track storage, just like B&M, Mack, and now Gertslauer with Karnan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodie Warrior Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 The layout looks fine to me, other than the MCBR being really early. That drop should be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superbatboy Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I can feel the roughness already, wish Premier was building this Their current generation of coasters are sooooo smooth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gutterflower Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 From what I've been told the premier coaster is also still happening. There will be at least 3 coasters. The premier sky rocket, the vekoma pretzel seen above and a custom vekoma motorbike coaster which will thread through the premier. As stated the park has been delayed by a couple of years and the original ride built for this park ended up as sky scream at holiday Park. I belive a second one is being manufactured for this park now. The park seems to have overcome it's financing issues and is aiming to be open by the end of the year. But as this is China I will belive it all when I see it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerstlaueringvar Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 ^ Agreed. As of now, still not a sign of roller coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GwaziBSRider1 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Considering that ~95% of the retail space was empty when the mall opened (and a lot still is), I'm surprised the park project is still in the works. Actually, I'm surprised that this mall is even still OPEN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gutterflower Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 That Mall is a different one. I think it was The New South China Mall. This one is an entirely new development west of Beijing called the Great Mall Of China. Possibly it will be just as successful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRC Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 New additional information : This ride does still go to Great Mall of China. It will be abt 30m higher then at the Testlocation. see all info in english : vekoma.webklik.nl Kind regards, Sjaak van Horne Netherlands abt 10 miles from Vekoma Vlodrop.
