sammmmmy Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 The LSM coaster looks sick. It looks like there's a Stormrunner ish roll right before the brakerun too!
darklingscribe Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 Yeah I was thinking Stormrunner too with a few more curves to make it fit into a smaller space.
Gutterflower Posted March 15, 2013 Author Posted March 15, 2013 Hey good pictures.  Strangely some versions of that park map/model/rendering show a third coaster outside the current boundary of the park. Could this be used in the future?  There is also this really cool timelapse video of construction released by the park  Sources & http://vhcoasters.com/2013/03/15/vialand-update/
Randomman295 Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 ^Looky here! The Turkish Skyrush! Â What could possibly go wrong?
Gutterflower Posted March 24, 2013 Author Posted March 24, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uEzOVtMFxjk  They have released another little construction video. Shows a nice little peek inside their indoor boat ride towards the end.
cfc Posted March 24, 2013 Posted March 24, 2013 ^This video still doesn't answer one important question: Is Kong still headless?
Gutterflower Posted April 8, 2013 Author Posted April 8, 2013 ^This video still doesn't answer one important question: Is Kong still headless? Â I can confirm he is not. Â Still very much a construction site. Â Source: http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?p=102044149
SharkTums Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 Isn't this park supposed to open in like a week?!!?
Gutterflower Posted April 8, 2013 Author Posted April 8, 2013 http://www.vialand.com.tr/corporate/about-project.aspx  The official site still says 23rd of April. That must just mean the shopping mall on top of the hill though. But even that doesn't look like it will be finished in two weeks. So I have noooo idea.
Nrthwnd Posted April 9, 2013 Posted April 9, 2013 I assume these construction shots were....some time ago? Â
coasterer Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 Any new news from this place? The opening date was moved back to May 29th, now less than two weeks away, according to their site, although I'm not sure when that was done. Does anyone have any construction updates, or word if the coasters are going to open on time?

Belgiumcoasterfreak Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 www.coasterfriends.de/forum/4540-2013-neuheit-vialand-neuer-freizeitpark-tuerkei-3.html  Thanks for the link! Seems like an interesting project
simon8899 Posted June 27, 2013 Posted June 27, 2013 According to Technical Park a new flat called Aerobat will be installed "in the park of Istanbul". Aerobat sketch from Technical Park
yay101 Posted June 27, 2013 Posted June 27, 2013 ^That ride looks fun. Reminds me of a 21st century Paratrooper. And the park looks great. I don't think the LSM will outbeat iSpeed or Maverick, but it looks fun!
_koppen Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 Family coaster POV. Looks like the usual "a lot more intense than the other manufactures in the given category" that Intamin is known for. However, I think that the ride could be a little bit longer, especially considering how tall it is. Otherwise awesome!
simon8899 Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 ^The video shows the Zierer Starshape is also running. But no clue to the "big" coaster...
_koppen Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 ^The video shows the Zierer Starshape is also running. But no clue to the "big" coaster... Â Vertical construction one the LSM ride has not started yet.
Chittlins Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 ^That ride looks fun. Reminds me of a 21st century Paratrooper.And the park looks great. I don't think the LSM will outbeat iSpeed or Maverick, but it looks fun! Â Or a Gerstlauer skyfly like the TMNT one at MOA.
australianalex Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 I wasn't aware of the family coaster. Looks really fun!
TXman308 Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 So I'm confused, did this park open with many rides missing (as it looks unfinished), or just the LSM launcher?
_koppen Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 So I'm confused, did this park open with many rides missing (as it looks unfinished), or just the LSM launcher? Â Most things are open. Â The LSM coaster will be "available in October" according to the parks website.
chickenbowl Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 Looking at some concept artwork I haven't seen on the website here, it looks like the ride layout will be pretty sweet. We may be seeing another top 20 Intamin here! I can't wait to see it built and opened!
rcjp Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 Does anyone have any news on the lsm coaster? I tried but couldn't find any picture of the construction which should already be at an advanced stage if they really want to open it next month.
