Hanno's picture of the day

[Hhappy]

^ I'll try to come up with something to keep everybody happy (again) tomorrow...

hmm....

[Werner]

^^Then i vote, Hot Chicks!

 

But please no German chicks anymore...

[vuurvogel]

As long as the chicks are hot, I do not care where they come from. Keep posting your art, Hanno

[Hhappy]

Time for another update from 2009's Scandi trip.

 

I present to you Thunderbird at PowerPark in Finland.

 

enjoy

[cfc]

Thunderbird--not sponsored by the wineries of Ernest and Julio Gallo.

[RoCo]

^^Hah! The expressions on the two riders in the front are great, but I love the hair action going on in the second row!

[CoasterKings908]

Their faces are HILARIOUS!

[piers]

I think they shared a box of hair bleach.

[Hhappy]

While we were enjoying the Scandi trip in 2009 we also made a stop at Skara Sommarland

 

Home to this surprising fun S&S Free Fly coaster called:

Tranan

 

For some folks this image might look familiar... and yes if you have been to the S&S booth at IAAPA.. it has been shown there on a giant display the last couple of years

 

Enjoy

^I love this picture and I love this coaster concept. How is it that S&S hasn't produced more of these I don't know. This and their launched coaster (powderkeg) are awesome.

[cfc]

^S&S should really push rides like Powder keg (it's their greatest creation). Tranan is fun--and actually a bit freaky as a "family" coaster.

[gisco]

I can se where this might be a bit scary. It looks like it could flip all the way over and you are sitting pretty high in the car.

[darklingscribe]

Tranan is really fun and strange to ride. It is nearly impossible not to hold on as it feels very out of control.

 

Great photo Hanno.

[RAWKIN_coaster38]

Great photo! That's awesome that S&S uses your photo! I see why!

I remember coming across this coaster some time before and being like... OMG what is this?!? Wish there were more, I really would like to experience this.

[Moose]

This is a great pic of what was a very very fun ride. The movement of this thing is like nothing else I've ridden. I wonder if we'll ever see another one built.

[sspaz1000]

great photos Hanno! I had a few pages to catch up on. But great pics! That last one definitely looks interesting.

[UrbanLegend]

Today was (for me) one of those days that i go back through different trip reports to see what's next to present in this topic..

 

I miss Japan.

 

so here is a picture of the Lava Monster from the 2011 Japan trip.

 

enjoy.

 

 

I know this is going way back, but that Lava Monster looks remarkably like the monster from Alien Encounter. Sure brings back the nostalgia!

[Hhappy]

Today i have something totally different for you

During the Intimidatour in 2010 we had a bit of rain while visiting Dollywood.

 

I still had the most amazing time though

It also present some different picture opportunities..

 

so here's today's picture

 

and as a bonus

 

enjoy

Time for another coaster

 

I present to you: El Toro

This picture was shot during opening weekend in 2009 at Plohn

Enjoy

 

[Meteornotes]

I always forget there is another El Toro. That kid's expression is awesome.

 

dt

[cfc]

I wonder how many bugs that kid swallowed?

[Moose]

I guess nobody likes rainy pictures..

 

Maybe no one likes Steve? (kidding)

 

This mini El Toro was an awesome surprise. Fun Fun Fun!

[cfc]

That was the perfect "Steve" picture.

[CoasterKings908]

That boy's expression is freaking hilarious!
