    Furuviksparken | Lightning | Vekoma Family Coaster | 2023

    It's good that Kolmarden took this direction, although it's sad they only realised the necessity after the death of the zoo keeper and a few animals. It's very sad to see videos like the one you shared. Dolphins are also not really the type of animals to keep in a basin so I don't think that's a...

    Furuviksparken | Lightning | Vekoma Family Coaster | 2023

    I've read somewhere that Kolmarden has a very specific vision on mainly keeping endangered species and helping the population grow, am I right? I am not all against zoos. But I do think that a big part of the zoos I have been keep animals in too tiny spaces and have a commercial balance that...

    SeaWorld Orlando | Pipeline: The Surf Coaster | B&M Surf Coaster | 2023

    It looks like something in the middle between a zero-g-roll and a corkscrew. With a little fantasy you could say this is what it looks like if a surfer catches a wave and does a backflip when getting off (wave-roll?). 😄

    Efteling | Spookslot Replacement | Intamin Dynamic Motion Stage | 2024

    Yeah maybe you're right. The theatrical approach of the old attraction with the beautiful classical musicpiece was something I really liked. It almost feels like that is what the biggest change is going to be: a theatrical attraction turned into a ride.

    Efteling | Spookslot Replacement | Intamin Dynamic Motion Stage | 2024

    I am not too sure about the new ride, for now... The whole rotating seat system sounds to me like a good product showcase for the ride engineer, but I don't feel the combination of the visual theme and the chosen ride system yet. But of course we don't know that much details yet. So I might...

    Dollywood | Big Bear Mountain | Vekoma Family Launched Coaster | 2023

    If you take a close look to the track, it actually looks inspired by their old trackstyle. But with the rail being attached to the track spine from the inside instead of the outside.

    CF Speed Build Competition | Constraint Breach Penalty | PLEASE VOTE

    I am not going to vote because I am one of few who accidentally missed a constraint and I didn't really have the time to fix this. But all creators are taking time to put effort in their creations for a competition that started purely for fun. Therefor I think it's a heavy penalty to directly...

    CF Speed Build Competition | Round 4 | Entries

    Here is my creation. I'll be honest, just before uploading I realised that I didn't stick to the minimum length, my coaster is just a little too short. And with being busy starting a new job this week I could not and didn't take the time to fix this. This coaster has four inversions, including...

    Rank the Harry Potter films

    After I re-watched the movies in the series a couple of times they really started to grow on me. JK Rowling definitely has some flaws as a writer but she did deliver enjoyable stories and an interesting wizarding world. Sidenote: my ranking of the number 3, 4 and 5 spot might change after a new...

    CF Speed Build Competition | Round 4 | Entries

    I am not sure how I am going to do this. I build on the console version of Planet Coaster and I don't have this coaster type... I only have the Eurofighter.

    Walibi Holland 2023

    I really don't mind they are trying to work with some weird artistic theming, and I actually do like the concept of it, for example the theming on Lost Gravity looks cool and unique. But I think there are two problems with it: first of all, it doesn't match with their target group (young...

    SFMM | Wonder Woman Flight of Courage | RMC Raptor | 2022

    I am curious if they ever considered another theme and different colors. It feels way less interesting to choose the same color scheme and the same theme for a ride that is basically already a copy of an existing ride.

    Fraispertuis City | Projet Storky | Custom RMC Raptor | 2024?

    Maybe saying that they are getting an RMC is a joke, is the joke? 🙃 #jokeception

    COTALAND | Texas | Gerstlauer Infinity Shuttle (Palindrome) & Vekoma Tilt (Circuit Breaker) & Others

    I agree, but I also see this as a downside from Intamin as a further great manufacturer. I think problem was not the experience of the ride, parks were interested in the model. But the maintenance level and cost of that tilt coaster was the big issue. If a company is able to fix the problem to...

    COTALAND | Texas | Gerstlauer Infinity Shuttle (Palindrome) & Vekoma Tilt (Circuit Breaker) & Others

    It's not specifically because of the tilt coaster. It's because they really copied everything and mainly did it cheaper and worse. Yes, they are making progress and are coming up with their own ideas (for example with their own take on the tilt-coaster) the last couple of years. But you can't...

    COTALAND | Texas | Gerstlauer Infinity Shuttle (Palindrome) & Vekoma Tilt (Circuit Breaker) & Others

    Are they a rollercoaster manufacturer or a copying machine? 🙃

    COTALAND | Texas | Gerstlauer Infinity Shuttle (Palindrome) & Vekoma Tilt (Circuit Breaker) & Others

    I don't think so either, although I don't really expect this from tilt-coasters in general. Like dive coasters, to me it feels like the idea is to have a signature element and pack a big punch in a short layout. That's also the feeling I have with the Taiwan tilt-coaster watching the POV.
