jamesdillaman Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 Nice looking coaster, Jeff. I was one of the lucky few who got to ride the Kentucky Rumbler and get the guided tour with you guys. GCII's are amazing and I hope you build a ton more so I can go ride them all! -James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mad_dog_BB Posted April 19, 2006 Author Share Posted April 19, 2006 Still cold, but this ride really kicks! Â The video is a TPR exclusive (for now, anyway, unitl I can figure out why it's not working on the Photobucket site). Â http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=167640 Â Enjoy!

Olov Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 So I guess the park and Thunderbird is finally open now (wasn't the place burrowed under a meter of snow just a few weeks ago?) Picture Gallery Not sure but I think the guests are enjoying their ride...( Cred to the powerpark. Edit: Found some more pics.

Finrock Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 Powerpark get some news again, a ghost ride where you go by yourself and then ride in a train and shooting something, it will be 200m long , a 100m long shopping gate and a horse stall.  http://www.powerpark.fi/English/gallery_0007.html  http://www.screamscape.com/html/powerpark_0.htm  so what do you think? how could the ghost ride be?

rollermonkey Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 Interesting to say the least. Most parks wouldn't tout a new shopping area as an attraction per se. Although any park with dragon shaped flume boats can do anything they want. Â The shooting dark ride sounds cool, who's making it? Â Horsies!

aflack Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 This is a very nice up and coming park I visited last year and Thunderbird is a fantastic ride. Â The bloke that runs First Drop visited for an artcile and he said that the park have 2 more coaster projects in the pipeline one large scale coaster and one more medium scale so I think we might see one of these next year maybe.

Finrock Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 yeah, I have heard about some coaster projects too And thunderbird is really a great ride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aflack Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 I would imagine some sort of large launched coaster may be in the works or a motorbike coaster some tie-in to the go karts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 This was a really nice little park. I'm excited for any additions they get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finrock Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 There goes rumours that it will be italian manufacturing Gosetto that will build the dark ride... someone have experiences of Gosetto's dark rides? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exmouse Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Among Gosettos line up is a suspended ghost train. The transportation system is something akin to Dream Flight at Efteling. The first one they made was for a travelling showman. From the ocnept art I consruction photos I've seen it looke dpretty impressive. Perhaps the Power Park one will be suspended,. They do make standard ghost trains too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDG Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Seems very nicely decorated, this park needs more themed areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larrygator Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Attractions Management has reported that PowerPark is adding a themed "SuperFlume" in 2012  http://www.attractionsmanagement.com/detail1.cfm?pagetype=detail&subject=news&codeID=300387&site=AM&dom=N  New Super Flume for Finland's PowerPark byYPete Hayman  Interlink has confirmed it has secured a contract for the design, manufacture and installation of a new Super Flume ride for PowerPark, an amusement park located in Alahärmä, Finland.  It is one of a number of deals secured by the company this year and will lead to the creation of a new 400m (1,312ft)-long ride at the park, which features two lifts and two drops.  The Super Flume ride will incorporate a 12m (39ft)-long station section and is to utilise nine six-seater boats that will provide a capacity of 600 passengers every hour.  Located in a new area of PowerPark and integrated into an existing bridge structure, the theme of the ride is based on the Second World War film, Bridge Over The River Kwai.  Interlink managing director John Hudd said: "It's been an interesting project to work on and to design and I'm sure it will be a very popular addition to the park when it opens."

Moose Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Interesting theme for a flume ride. Is Power Park adding a whole new section? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrygator Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 I tried to look on Google maps to see where this existing bridge is, but since PowerPark is so far off the grid they don't have a good satellite image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rollin_n_coastin Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Super Flume, strange Boomerang and insane high speed go-karts? Time to get back there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiltsu Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Super Flume (Kwai River) is a very well built, the area has also become a number of different buildings, and the details, I can not wait to get there this summer. Here's a live cam where you can see how it is completed: http://www.lillbacka.com/ppwebcam/webcam4.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_koppen Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 According to this site, who has been known in the past for being pretty reliable, this park is rumored to get a 35m tall Gerstlauer LSM coaster in 2015 with 4 inversions. Â I really hope this is true, and if so I can't wait to se how it turns out. The park really needs another high quality coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon8899 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Karacho at Tripsdrill is 700 meters long, 30 meters high and has 4 inversions - maybe a slightly bigger layout of Gerstlauer Launched Infinity Coaster... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anac0nda Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 That would certainly be something! It would also be the first Gerstlauer in Finland. Let's hope this becomes reality with a kick-ass custom layout! I agree that while Thunderbird is awesome, the rest of the coasters just don't measure up to it, and after a few years of family or not-so-intense rides this would be a good one for the thrill riders!
