I think it will be interesting to see how themed the trains are.

[coastered]

The supports are here!

They're ivory white, more or less the combination of colours will be similar to "Kanonen".

Do you have pictures of the supports??

[Virdu_]

I've seen photos of the supports, but the park qualified them "Ilegals" and we can't show them in public sites :S

I think in a few days there'll be public photos

[Virdu_]

Some "legal" photos!

They're made from the top of Dragon Khan, the quality isn't the best, but they aren't bad!

 

 

Thanks to TICH!

 

And... they're bigger than other Intamin Coasters... or I'm a bit silly

[Linkin_palau]

I think that you are silly i ets una miqueta verdura a més a més. xD

 

Good pics, I can't wait to see these train crossing Mediterrànea at 135kph!

And new's Wing Walker trains!

From far away the track looks a lot larger.

www.PA-Community.com has got the authorization of the park, and...

They're enormous!

[COASTER FREAK 11]

Yep...those are bigger.

 

So I know that the "Wing Walker" trains can tilt the riders toward the track, dose anyone know if this one will do that or not?

I've probably missed it earlier in the thread, but do we know when it is scheduled to open. We will be in Salou from 13th - 20th, hopefully we will get to ride it then.

If you look over on Screamscape, there are some pictures that I took of the track, supports and site a few days ago when I was at PA.

it seems that the coaster will have an indoor zone..it would be awesome ^^

I can't waitmore for ride that new coaster!!!

[Guig31]

First official concept art:

 

It acts concretely of the section of the coaster which passes above "Méditerrània" Lake. We can appreciate elements of the thematisation of the trains, which will have barrels in the central part.

PortAventura already entered its extension of season, this is why the park is closed in the week. This supposes that works of the new Coaster of 2007 are carried out in a more comfortable way.

 

 

(sorry about the faults, I'm french)

The trains look pretty cool. I'm looking forward to seeing a POV of this thing. I bet your feet will be pretty close to the water (judging by the concept art, anyway)

The lake is ruined.

[matteocrepaldi]

I think that it looks just AWESOME!!! I really hope to get a chance to go there in May and ride it!

[gaga_lefou]

The first rails have been installed

HOLLY SH!T!!! That inversion looks sock!

[the sound]

The lake is ruined.

 

From what i understand, the coaster will just go over a little bit of the lake. Although, i sort of have to agree. Its a really beautiful lake. I'm afraid it may ruin it a little bit.

[ikari]

wooow It rocks!!! I love that awesome inversion!!!

And the rails are really near to the ground like they had noticed some time ago.

 

Furious Baco will be really amazing!!! ^_^

[bigdaniel]

That looks awesome! I'm looking forward to my visit next year

 

Nevertheless I hope that the coaster won't destroy the quiet mediterranean atmosphere, but it seems that the themeing and the story are adeqaute for this mediterranean area.

Wow, looks nice! Thanks for the sharing the pictures, the In-Line Twist looks awsome and construction seems to be getting along nicely now! I also hope the coaster won't ruin the lake, but i think we can never really now how bad/good its going to look until its actually finished. Besides, its a small price to pay for a coaster like that!

[Satoshi]

oh me was wonderin' its new intamin ride's gonna be like Mavelick

cuz i gotta know it would have got any kinda loops or twists! plus

me was guessin' its color gotta be TTD's deep red for lettin' us feel

scary feelin' before the xtreme venture goes!

 

but good thin' it's got ground huggin' in-line twist!

[matteocrepaldi]

It's looking very good so far! It's going to be a great ride; I just hope to be able to get there and ride it!

[christianscoasters]

It's doing its Maverick impression! A low barrel roll near the ground. Wish I could go to Spain.
