gerstlaueringvar Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 I bet even other manufacturers are jealous of RMC getting such an incredible setting!
KingRCT3 Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 That music! "Atlantis", from the one and only Thomas Bergersen (Two Steps From Hell).
Stu K Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 holidays /vacation booked for 2016 may have to sort something for 2017 as this looks awesome! Stu K
_koppen Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 The new website is totally awesome!! There's two insanely awesome videos now, one is the commercial and the other is a really cool overview of the ride. wildfire.kolmarden.com
jray21 Posted December 21, 2015 Posted December 21, 2015 It really looks like it will be an amazing ride!
_koppen Posted December 22, 2015 Posted December 22, 2015 They are really hauling a$$ with construction now!
jedimaster1227 Posted December 22, 2015 Posted December 22, 2015 This thing is really starting to come together! I can't wait to see the finished product!
AustinR Posted December 22, 2015 Posted December 22, 2015 I have never been on one of these super hybrids, but I cant help but miss straight airtime hills on wooden coasters
I love pie Posted December 22, 2015 Posted December 22, 2015 When the lift is topped off, I hope there's a pic of the view from the top of the lift.
viking86 Posted December 22, 2015 Posted December 22, 2015 Just watched the commercial, really cool video! I guess we should start seeing track in the not-so-distant future, very much looking forward to that. I still cannot fully believe that we are actually getting an RMC in Scandinavia! So excited to visit Kolmården next year... I have never been on one of these super hybrids, but I cant help but miss straight airtime hills on wooden coasters I have had the same thought about these RMC creations. But then again I haven't been on any of them yet, so I will withhold judgement until I have been on the ride. Then after that I can say if I wished the ride had more straight hills or not. Either way it will still be an incredible ride!
PKI Jizzman Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 I have never been on one of these super hybrids, but I cant help but miss straight airtime hills on wooden coasters There are plenty on RMC coasters. Both Goliath and Outlaw Run have straight airtime hills. Just go back and watch some beautiful TPR videos One holy hell airtime hill A strong pop before the double barrel roll
viking86 Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 ^Obviously there are straight airtime hills on the coasters that RMC makes. I think what some people are missing are those large El Tory-style airtime hills. Storm Chasers second hill is of decent size. But as I said, this 'lack of straight hills' is really just an assumption from my side, and I will withhold my judgement until I have ridden Wildfire (and hopefully a couple of others RMC's). After that I can give my opinion on whether these rides needs more big straight hills or not. Funny enough Medusa Steel Coaster technically has the fewest and it's my favorite RMC so far. RMC does an amazing job of squeezing in airtime into like every element they build. This is one of the things that makes me so excited to try my first RMC next year. I've heard many people saying that RMC's tends to deliver airtime in places where you don't expect it to be any airtime. Nothing like some good, surprising airtime on a rollercoaster...
jray21 Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 Those construction pictures are really neat! I can't believe how much wood there is just on the lift hill!
Anac0nda Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 A new episode has been released! In this one, winter has arrived (with snow) but it doesn't seem to hold these guys back:

Yes the large Toro-style is exactly what I'm thinking. These look over computerized to me, but also never been on one so can't say much, as long as there's a mix of old fashioned woodies still being built in the mix I'm happy. I just need to get myself on one so I can feel the greatness.
TyRush Posted January 12, 2016 Posted January 12, 2016 Oh my good god. It's so symmetrical and beautiful and curvy.
A.J. Posted January 12, 2016 Posted January 12, 2016 ^Obviously there are straight airtime hills on the coasters that RMC makes. I think what some people are missing are those large El Toro-style airtime hills. Bingo. Those and the kind of speed hills that Phoenix has. I'm very much a purist in that sense, and it's why I've never gotten into Rocky Mountain's coasters like most other people have. I'll take multiple straight airtime hills in a row over "holy crap I don't know which way I'm going now up down left right twisty twisty" any day of the week - but that's nothing against them. You do you, Rocky Mountain. Keep making people happy. I'll be over there riding my favorite classic.
jedimaster1227 Posted January 12, 2016 Posted January 12, 2016 Between the update from Dollywood and now Wildfire, Rocky Mountain Construction is really spoiling us with excellent construction photos!
rcjp Posted January 12, 2016 Posted January 12, 2016 Between the update from Dollywood and now Wildfire, Rocky Mountain Construction is really spoiling us with excellent construction photos! Indeed! And they both look like awesome rides! I'll probably have a chance to ride this one first, though.
LoneRider92 Posted January 14, 2016 Posted January 14, 2016 Even if the ride won't be open during the winter months, it should look gorgeous dusted with snow like the way it is now. I really hope I can find a way to ride this fine piece of engineering someday.
