cal1br3tto Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 With these recent updates I'm actually starting to think Shambhala and Dragon Khan look lovely together. Intentionally or not, some of their curves seem almost parallel, or otherwise create pleasing lines and shapes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jhcbiinoc Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 This coaster looks as if it could end up being one of the sleeper hits of 2012; very impressive layout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dj-Javixxxxx Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 In addition to the last video released from the park (which is a great way to show some theming), here is another video I filmed yesterday that shows how big is the new ride! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-M17CNvmvrI Enjoy! I recommend watching it at youtube with hd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmicha Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 ^Wow, thanks for that awesome video and pictures. Seeing this ride up close makes it look even more impressive (if that was even possible). Whenever I find my way to Spain in the future I will have to visit here and take this ride for a spin. It looks incredible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dj-Javixxxxx Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Original source of the new map: http://img.portaventura.es/banners/mapa_PortAventura.pdf Check the theming concept, and enjoy the new map! It looks so, so, so awesome! Damn, this ride is starting to be really interesting going further than the concept of "another hypercoaster" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XYZ Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 ^That means Shambhala is the longest B&M Hyper ever built (excluding Leviathan, if you include it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egiptologo Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 ^That means Shambhala is the longest B&M Hyper ever built (excluding Leviathan, if you include it). Leviathan is only 20 metres (73 feet) longer than Shambhala. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sammmmmy Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 I've said it before and I'm going to say it again-- It shocks me how fast B&M's go up. It's absolutely insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dj-Javixxxxx Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Just a little turn, and it would be done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kunpc1 Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 It really is amazing how quickly all the B&M's went up this year. It seemed to only be a few short months for all of them to go from footer to complete. I really hope this has as much (if not more) airtime as Behemoth. If it does, you won't be disappointed!
