Today i seeing Vekoma Vlodrop is building a new test construction called "ZigZag" Link to building permit (Dutch)

promotional video for COTA 2023

Changed my text. Thx for reminding.

Yes, definitely. They allready sold 4 of these Tilt Coaster 1 = COTA (USA) 2 = Energylandia (Poland) 3 = Six Flags Qiddiya (Saudi Arabia) 4 = (unconfirmed)

See YT video from Coaster Studios at page 11.

This construction is so build ,that the Tilt element is modular. So they can use different length trains. Without changing the structure.

Here u can see the train backing up from the tilt element.

Spectacular "FailSafe test" very shocking to see :

Yes it does.

No, thats not possible, due the load on the train. U have to weigh the passengers and place them in the correct seat. And ALL seats have to be filled, not disturb the balance. Thats not the way how its gonna work.

Finaly some action at Test-setup for Vekoma Tiltcoaster V2 : Tilt-element Full Speed

The family "Dummy" have taken their seats in the train :

The family "Dummie" has still no access to the train. 😂 EDIT : Same on Sept 17th.

U have to keep in mind this is an 5 or 6 coach train. That would need a very large turntable. Thats nothing for Vekoma I can only think of they use the GotG CR trains that can rotate 360 degr , no need for turntable. They can set it on random , forward or backwards. So it will be a surprise...

Train is on the tilt-section, heard new "Vekoma-noises", but no tilt action today.

CoasterStudios was invited by Vekoma workers to visit the testing facility and factory.

Here is my video from Jul 18th 2022 with a moving Tilt Element and close up from the train.

I can't see them, the view is blocked by a semi truck.

Here some better images from today : (Jul 17th 2022) These are the same coaches that where on display Jul 3rd 2022, during an special event at Vekoma Factory. This train is for Energylandia. COTA train is 1 coach shorter

Did a quick visit today. Train stil under the tarps.
