Norwegian coasterfan Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 It took me exactly four looks to realize that the inverted coaster ISN'T a giant inverted boomerang layout. It looks to be inspired by...Odyssey? I think it`s a mirror image of this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I305forever Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 What if the knock off ends up being better than the real SLCs??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerstlaueringvar Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 ^^Nope, they are both original designs. Very standard, but completely original. If the mine train is from Golden Horse, it will be good considering how smooth the new generation mine train that GH made for Happy Valley Tianjin is.

According to the post on the previous page it is a clone only mirrored, it's even the same manufacturer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it`s a mirror image of this I don't see any of the usual SLC constant left-right shaking* in that video, looks like a long, fast ride, and that might even be an RMC-like bit of sideways air at 0:25 . There's a lot you can't tell, but potentially a big improvement. *you know, that Vekoma should have fixed before making a second SLC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gutterflower Posted August 9, 2016 Author Share Posted August 9, 2016 Found a lovely aerial of that side of the park showing off the invert so it looks less like an invertigo Full Size That ski slope is freaking huge. Dwarfs what is a decent sized invert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hilltopper39 Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 The first time I saw the concept art for this one I thought if there was ever a coaster that will not be nearly as cool as the concept looks it's going to be a Dueling Tilt coaster. Still a cool novelty but yeah kind of a normal looking ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPmillenia94 Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 Does nobody else notice how janky the rails are though?? Definitely not as smooth as it looked off ride.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterer Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 If I didn't know any better, I would guess that this ride was built about 20 years ago. It just looks strangely old-fashioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElvisLuv Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 So Hefei is open and now Chongqing construction is underway? Been planning on a China/Asia vacation in 2020 after Europe in 2018. All these new parks are coming online between now and then and it's making route planning a bit difficult but it's looking like Being and hopefully the new Universal to Xi'an and Lewa to Chengde and Happy Valley to Chongqing and Wanda , Short Yangtze cruise to Liyang and then either Shanghai via bullet train through Hefei or to Changsha and Zhangjiajie the mountains Avatar was based off of and then to Shanghai and then Hong Kong. All that after 7 days in Japan. Gutterflower's posts have been very helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rcjp Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 The ones intamin uses have always made a different sound for some reason, I personally prefer this to the usual "whistle" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
