Coaster Curt Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Sorry not trying to be stupid here but after seeing a few signatures that state how many wooden/steel/liquid coasters they have been on I got curious as to what a liquid coaster is.

Tanks4me05 Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 ^I'm not entirely positive since I don't use that classification for my own credits, but I think they are just water coasters, like de Vliegende Hollander at Efteling, or Sea World Orlando's Journey to Atlantis. Either that, or they are log flumes and shoot-the-chutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OISU8P Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 This is a good example of what Premier Rides considers one. http://www.rcdb.com/1903.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Curt Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 Watched the video of that coaster and it just seems like a launched coaster, why would this be considered a liquid coaster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OISU8P Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 I am not sure what video you where watching but is may have been drained. Here is a photo showing the splash down. http://www.rcdb.com/1903.htm?p=4129 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That coaster used to be a water coaster, but later had its water portions removed and became a launched coaster. So if you're watching a video of it, you're not imagining things, it is no longer a water coaster. I think this is would be a better example of what you might be looking for: http://www.rcdb.com/2079.htm?p=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OISU8P Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 ^Yes, I forgot S&S redid that coaster and took out the water features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
