    Universal IoA | Jurassic World VelociCoaster | Intamin Blitz | 2021

    There's a Midway Mayhem video that shows the trains on site. Though they are wrapped up you can see they have a very similar shape to the Taron trains. I think we can be confident that the restraints will be the overhead lapbars.

    Walibi Belgium | Kondaa | Intamin Mega Coaster | 2021

    A couple of small supports are in so it is vertical.

    That's going to be quite a sharp peak.

    Flamingo Land | Sik | Intamin 10 Inversion Coaster | 2022

    The £20m figure was used when they were only talking about the coaster. The coast project was never fully approved so I doubt the cost of the project would make it into the public knowledge. These were two completely different projects by the same company and it would be extremely careless to...

    Disney (WDW & Disneyland) | Tiana's Bayou Adventure | Splash Mountain retheme | 2024

    If this was just for Disneyland and not Magic Kingdom it wouldn't be so bad. Princess and the Frog would fit in fine in both Critter Country and New Orleans Square. but in Magic Kingdom it will stick out like a sore thumb in Frontierland. I don't see how it could work, especially given the...

    Flamingo Land | Sik | Intamin 10 Inversion Coaster | 2022

    They want people to believe they spent 20 million on this ride. I don't think they're going to open it without absolutely everything done beforehand given they've already claimed that almost definitely exaggerated cost.

    Maybe the park but the coaster isn't close enough to be completed by then. As far as I know they haven't resumed work on it yet and as mentioned before there's a good couple months work at least to go.

    It looks like they plan to paint it, they need to construct the queue, potentially the inside of the station building, any theming they plan to add, the permanent perimeter fence around the ride, actual ride testing and staff training.

    Flamingo Land | Sik | Intamin 10 Inversion Coaster | 2022

    Other projects much closer to completion than this have been delayed until next year. It would be a miracle if this opened this year.

    Oh ok, didn’t realise that the double spine track makes a huge difference. How much taller is red force than it’s tallest support tower? 0ft. Red force uses the same support style as Top Thrill Dragster and Kingda Ka so the highest point is supported.

    Universal IoA | Jurassic World VelociCoaster | Intamin Blitz | 2021

    A stall is where it rolls stops rolling for any duration within the range of angles that it could be considered upside down and starts rolling again towards the end. So a stall can go a full 360° or 180° one way and 180° the other. As long as it stops rolling, even for a fraction of a second to...

    This ride is just looking better and better. What other surprised are they going to spring on us with this.

    Busch Gardens Tampa | Iron Gwazi | RMC Gwazi | 2022

    It's obvious. But sometimes it's fun to see what they come up with next. Can be a laugh sometimes.

    Despite the use of the wooden supports the the original Gwazi used.
