That's a really awesome coaster. It looks way better than Ninja. And it doesn't have a lifthill before the station.

Heya

I have loads of great pictures of this.

Unfortunatly im working in Spain for 2 more weeks so i cant get to them till then. But If you Send me a PM ill remember and get to it when i get home.

Looks like the best suspended if you ask me.

and the only one R&E have yet to ride if im not mistaken?

Cheers

I have been lucky enough to ride Eagles Fortress which is called "Suspended Coaster" on the Everland map. I was stationed at Osan AB in S. Korea for a year and took a trip up to Everland. It is a really cheesy park and I got my picture taken by a Korean lady because she had never seen a white man. Anyway, the ride itself is amazing, it has no brakes (at the time, 2004), and just flies through its course and is situated along a woody hill and the trains come very close to the trees. Clearly S. Korea doesn't have the same rules that America has.

BTW, not only does Everland have one GIANT swinging ship but two, right next to each other. Pretty sweet.

Awwww man, I've always wanted to try one of those huge ships. I find it odd that they'd put two right next to eachother, especially with the good capacity the ride has.

The floater air must be ridiculous, it's already a great ride (the smaller versions we have here in the states.) Did you get to ride one of them, if so, what did you think?

smaller version in the states? How big are these ships, because I know the one at PKI is pretty big...

-James Dillaman

Humongous.

Photo by me at Toshimaen!

I'm pretty sure the viking fury at PKI is the same size as the one you pictured. I don't know of any others that size, but I'm fairly sure that qualifies as one of that size in the states. It seats 4-6 people in each row.

Here's a pic:

Viking Fury

Its the Huss DreamsShip/ Ship Of Dreams.. ANd they are 150 base 200 foot fullswing.. Much bigger then PKIs ship

Huss use to have lots of info on them on its site.. But not anymore.

Is it just me or are those two guys in the front "pounding it???"

Heres a better picture of those enormous swinging ships http://www.coastergallery.com/japan/N08.html

THese are the best shots ive ever seen of this ride.

seems pretty hard to photograph to me

Hey all

I did a quick search as i was sure we already had a topic on this. But apparently not

As has been confirmed Everland in Korea are getting an Intamin Plug and Play woodie for next year.

On my recent look for phaeton information i came across this model picture.

Source: http://kpsp.kemul.net/bbs/board.php?bo_ ... and&page=7

The ride looks pretty good although not a great shot of the model i must admit

Kinda Looks like a cross between Balder & El Toro with a tiny bit of a CCI touch.

[EDIT] translated page [edit again]Nevermind

It looks awesome! A terrain Intamin woodie. Does it look like it has two lifts?

That looks like a sort of Balder meets El Toro. It starts out like an out and back but then goes into a Balder like series of turns and airtime hills. That first drop looks insane and I like the use of the terrain as that's a first for Intamin prefab woodies. Surely this will be one for the top ten wooden coasters.

Korea certainly seems to be getting some amazing coasters at the moment

Doesn't look very original, but I'm sure it'll be a great ride.

Good to see more prefab woodies.

More information:

It will be 5383ft long (1641m)

151ft high (46m)

65mph (106km/h).

And the first drops angle is 77Degrees.

Well there goes El Toro's drop record.

Looks like an AWESOME layout!

Now that looks really good!!

I guess it's too bad that a load of us are going this year and not the next, but Everland looks like a great park anyway, so I'm sure I'll be back.

Ah yes! I've read something about this coaster, a long time ago (on trips'n'pics) but it only was a rumor... Even if I've never ridden a woody (i've never ridden a real coaster in fact... ) I like them!

Yeah, this is great news. If Intamin keeps getting orders for these puppies, maybe we'll see another US installation. Cedar Point, for example, desperately needs one.

Does this mean another TPR Korea trip is in the works?

Woah! Balder meets El Toro is going to be an awesome coaster! It's going to be three times as hard for Elissa to pick now!
