coastercub Posted December 3, 2005 Posted December 3, 2005 Ok had my ickle trip to Taiwan and this is what I came back with !! I found another version of the infamous Bench ride !! It's all there even giant chicken butt's !! Are these some kind of animal at the entrance to the park.... Nope, Chicken butt's !! The Giant Guardian Chickens of the park loom over the entrance in great defiance against the public !! Inside the park, lots of big buildings but mostly empty or closed ! Bench:The Spinny ride This park has it all !! Gravity Max (and me) As you can see the park was packed.. I had to fight them off with a big stick to get a seat ! Up the lift hill and onto mr tilty track ! he's a friendly chap.. Let the tilting track do it's thing.. you know.. tilting !! Nearly there and the 3 ickle brakes are holding onto the train for dear life !! Nearly there !! The 3 ickle brakes can't hold anymore... At the back it's just like a freefall tower... Under the pavement and into the loop at a nice speed while the tilty bit reset's for the next victims !! Taken from behind !!
coastercub Posted December 3, 2005 Author Posted December 3, 2005 I do appologise if the sites down now and then. I'm getting alot of traffic at the moment so try again later is all i can say..
robbalvey Posted December 3, 2005 Posted December 3, 2005 Anyway you could post some of the pics here for us to see? The reason we offer the hosting for photos is for reasons like the limited bandwidth! Just use the photo attachement box at the bottom of the posting page. --Robb
Erik Johnson Posted December 3, 2005 Posted December 3, 2005 Did you visit other places in Taiwan other than the parks? I was wondering if you visited the Wan Hua district of Taipei.
coastercub Posted December 3, 2005 Author Posted December 3, 2005 I started in Taipei, then onto Sun Moon lake, then down to Taichung (for Discovery world) then onto Yunelin (for Janfusun Fancyworld) then onto kaoshung and then flew back to Taipei and then onto Australia ! It was a hectic trip and I took far to many photo's !!
coasterCrAzY505 Posted December 3, 2005 Posted December 3, 2005 I'm just waiting for one of these suckers to come to the U.S
ECZenith Posted December 3, 2005 Posted December 3, 2005 Please tell me you got some shots of G5! Thanks for sharing these rare photos.

CoasterCrazy Posted December 3, 2005 Posted December 3, 2005 Thanks for posting the awesome pictures!!!! Gravity Max looks awesome! 8)
coastercub Posted December 3, 2005 Author Posted December 3, 2005 Gravity Max rides as awsome as it looks. it's actually pretty damn smooth too... Who knew Vekoma could make smooth coasters !! back seat is the place to be as it's like a freefall tower and a coaster all rolled into one !!
rollermonkey Posted January 8, 2006 Posted January 8, 2006 Awesome! How hard is it to get to the parks? I'm an 'out-of-the-way-credit' kind of guy, and I'd love to try to get these while I'm not too far away.
Canobie Fan Posted January 8, 2006 Posted January 8, 2006 Please tell me you got some shots of G5! You know theres not much to it right... So like the 18 photos of RCDB show all it does... http://rcdb.com/ig1417.htm All it is... is Oblivion thats just a few feet shorter.
slick Posted January 8, 2006 Posted January 8, 2006 ...And hanging over a mountain, oh, and don't forget the fact that it looks cooler because, you know, even the brake run is like a 100 feet in the air.
socalMAN123 Posted January 8, 2006 Posted January 8, 2006 Awesome pics! My friend keeps on telling me that the coasters in Taiwan are really cool. ---Brent
Curt Posted January 9, 2006 Posted January 9, 2006 Wow, thanks for the pics! Sounds like I need to make a trip to Taiwan.
robbalvey Posted January 9, 2006 Posted January 9, 2006 yes i got lots of shots of G5 and the Floorless B&M there... will post them later today or tomorrow when I get a chance ! or check out http://www.geocities.com/technocub/DW/DW.htm and http://www.geocities.com/technocub/JF/JF.htm as long as I haven't exceeded my daily allowance on traffic which i did yesterday ! ^ Feel free to post them here if you like...you won't go over your limits! --Robb
