Kooky Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Havent´t found a thread so i open a new one for the little park in Austria. They are building "Rattenmühle" a bobsled coaster for this season and looks like it may become a fun one. Here are some facts: Height: 19 meter Lenght: 430m max. speed: 54 km/h and here are some pictures from http://www.coasterfriends.de/forum/coasterfriends-insider-1/newscenter-park-und-coaster-news-park-talk-5/europa-news-67/5083-2013-neuheit-rattenmuehle-bobsled-coaster-familypark-neusiedlersee-osterreich.html : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_koppen Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I love Gerstlauer wild mouse coasters, and the surroundings looks cool for this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrthoMan Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Looks like a really fun little coaster so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kooky Posted May 24, 2013 Author Share Posted May 24, 2013 The track is completed and the tests will begin the next days: image-source: http://airtimers.com/die-rattenmuhle-osterreichs-neuer-bobsled-coaster/0017912/ and two cgi-pics for a better view of the complete track: source: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geauga Dog Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 That's a very nice looking ride. I like how it tries to blend into its surroundings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
australianalex Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 This looks fantastic. Looks like Gerstlauer are onto yet another winner this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FilmoreISnAZN Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 The Gerstlauer Bobsled coaster has been, in my opinion, surprisingly unsuccessful as of late, which is really a shame. I thought, with the coasters' smaller footprint but insane g-forces, the coaster would become extremely popular to all kinds of amusement parks. This Bobsled coaster is the first, non-dark ride (Van Helsing at Movie Park Germany), Bobsled coaster since 2006! Really quite sad, because I was always hoping a ride like Heiße Fahrt would come to a park near me in the U.S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_koppen Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 I hate when they mix spineless track with the triangle style one. I sure know why they do it, but I just hate the look of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aceattack52 Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 ^ Haha "spineless" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
australianalex Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 I've never liked the look of the triangle track on Gerstlauer's smaller coasters anyway, but that's just an insignificant complaint for what looks to be otherwise a fantastic family coaster.

Nrthwnd Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 I think the combination of the two track styles works great here, especially with all the surrounding vegetation and landscaping. I think it all depends on the colour of the track (really!) and what the surroundings are, with it. Looks great. Thanks for sharing the update photos! I love all of this, how it looks among the trees, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XII Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 Looks like a fun family coaster. Hope it rides as good as it looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matteocrepaldi Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 Looks like a nice little ride! I really like this kind of coasters and I really hope to find a way to ride this one in the future! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterfreak101 Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 Wow, that looks really nice! It fits great in the area it's in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gisco Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 I like how they fit in with the trees. Looks way better then leveling everything and replanting. Where shouts in Austria is this park? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_koppen Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Where shouts in Austria is this park? A little bit outside of Wien, close to the border of both Slovakia and Hungary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

julioot Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Awesome looking ride. Seems to make a lot of momentum. I think the reaction of the dude filming it says it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markysharky17 Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 That looks beutiful. Why couldn't Six Flags have gotten these instead of the Super Loops.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geauga Dog Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 It's great to see more of these Sky Fly rides popping up. I hope we can see more of these in the U.S. in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Very impressed with the theming of everything there on that Sky Fly. And - I think I found a date, to meet that lovely (but probably lonely) winged female up there on the attraction... He lives in Europa Park.

StealthFan Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) Wow Gerstlauer really sold a good amount of Sky Flys this year. This is without a doubt the best themed one I have seen yet! I would be surprised if we see one that looks better than this one any time soon. Edited April 8, 2015 by StealthFan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking86 Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 I didn't know anything about this park until now, but I must say it looks great! That Gerstlauer bobsled looks like a ton of fun, and for that Sky Fly I only have one thing to say... WOW!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
