Belgiumcoasterfreak Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 During the EAS in Amsterdam today, the new ride set to open for 2019 in Walibi Belgium was revealed to the public. ETF, Alterface and Joravision are responsible for the ride vehicle, ride design and fysical theming. The newly designed ridesystem called 'Erratic Ride' is the first of it's kind Interactive Darkride that includes a very small ride-footprint with the option to personally influence your own ride experience (depending on how good you're playing. The better you are, the longer the ride takes etc.). The ride will see it's first debut in Walibi Belgium in 2019.

larrygator Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 ^Interesting. Is this replacing Challenge of Tutankhmaon or will the park have two shooting dark ride that can have different outcomes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JordyC Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 ^It is this dark ride. This will be located in the Ali Baba section of the park, near the Vekoma Boomerang Cobra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 I found an art concept posted online, for this new attraction. And it looks like the haunted swing ride is a Bye-Bye, too? Or as it was known...le Palais du génie. And the Boomerang looks fine, set in there, with the theming around it. R.I.P le Palais du Genie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j2xv Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 I found an art concept posted online, for this new attraction.And it looks like the haunted swing ride is a Bye-Bye, too? Or as it was known...le Palais du génie. The haunted mansion will remain in the park, it's located near playland at the other side of Radja River, you can't see it on that concept art, however the area near the haunted mansion will (i think either this or next year) get a big update with a new small kid-coaster running over the path, between playland and the lake. (see attached photo) btw, a few months ago i threw this togheter, its all the plants overlayed with the excisting sattelite pictures. https://imgur.com/a/5A9kF *edit*, the new coaster won't run over the path, the main pathway will be moved towards playland so that it's more integrated into the park and not like some side area. Great move from Walibi! really digging their future plans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belgiumcoasterfreak Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 The rebranded themed area 'Karma World' has some soft openings going on, including the all new interactive darkride 'Popcorn Revenge'. 'Fun Pilot', the Zierer Junior Coaster, is still in construction and will most likely open for public at the end of the month. Both areas will officially open at the end of May. Some footage of 'Karma World' in it's current state: [youtu_be] [/youtu_be] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrygator Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 I recently visited the park for the first time since 2008. Overall the park looks very nice and there is clear differentiation in the theming of each area. However, the coaster selection is extremely weak, especially when compared to Walibi Holland. I know the 2021 Intamin is right around the corner. Now from the dark ride standpoint the park nailed it with Popcorns Revenge. This shooting dark ride is great. I rode it about 15 times. It makes Challenge of Tutankhamon looks like crap, but CoT still runs well (rode it 5 times). There was no wait for either ride on the slightly rainy/overcast day that I visited.

cal1br3tto Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 I...Revenge of the Corn. Popcorn Revenge. Wow. Love it! Just had to say that. Of course, an Intamin Mega is much bigger news! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDG Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Track!!! The color is dark green. Which is quite unexpected, as all artwork and renders showed a red coaster.

KarlaKoaster Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 I had totally forgotten about this one, and now this thread has reminded me, I realise I've also totally forgotten the layout. Really looking forward to seeing this one! I feel Intamin have really matured over the last few years but are still those playful rapscallions that we love them for.

BDG Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Whoa. :o Today the "non inverted cobra roll" was completed. Quite an intimidating looking element. :o A few slightly older shots showing the massive area: photos: Themepark Magic, Coasterpix.com, Auquier Hadelin, VRT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.J. Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 I think the double spine makes it look more intimidating... and kind of wonky. It's Intamin though, it'll be really good. I really like the forest green track color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KarlaKoaster Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Certainly not the prettiest element but it looks amazing, so much happening in such a short length of track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southpuddle Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 The reverse cobra roll looks like something from NoLimits if someone was joking around and put random nodes all over the place and then auto-smoothed it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
