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

[Peet]

Per a trademark filing earlier this month, the name of the log flume is... Soggy Logger

Well that's certainly a choice.

Do they really need to trademark that, I mean nobody else is going to be using it are they?

 

[Boodangy]

Not to be crude but soggy logger sounds like a roundabout way of saying you went number two. "Just went and dropped a soggy logger"

This log flume would become my highest tier bucket list at the park if it ever gets built.

Can't wait to see what the boats look like.

If they even vaguely resemble a turd it'll be absolutely brilliant. Which says a lot about my humour I think, but oh well.

I'd argue they will regardless- provided you've had the right wrong thing for dinner the night before.

Trackwork is complete with the last bolt in for Circuit Breaker, hopefully testing will start soon.

I bet they are fuming that they aren’t gonna have the first tilt coaster in the states now. What took them so long to get this thing together? Sirens Curse seemed to spring up overnight.

I think they're intending to have it up and running in time for the GP, which I think is on 19 October.

The delay came down to electrical permitting. Vekoma’s crew had planned to finish Circuit Breaker ahead of Siren’s Curse, but with COTALAND running behind schedule overall, they shifted focus. The team headed to Ohio to get Siren’s Curse ready in time for Cedar Point’s tighter deadline.

Now that the permits are finally in place and permanent electrical work is underway, progress should move faster. That said, Circuit Breaker won’t debut until the park itself is ready. Currently estimated for mid-2026.

Circuit Breaker's tilt was configured and tested for alignment using a temporary power supply. The Park wants people to experience the park as a whole, so the goal is to complete the entire park construction before everything opens up.

Cheers y'all!

Camera (or ride!) looks a bit wobbly

and the description on that video says;

COTALAND is launching Circuit Breaker — the first ride in what will be a complete theme park at Circuit of The Americas in Austin. The coaster opens for the first time for Formula 1 fans this weekend.

That first element into the downwards roll is awesome.
