Linnanmäki | Taiga | Intamin LSM Launch Coaster

[Hixee]

Yeah it's a short train because it's a right hassle pulling a full train though when it isn't at all required.

On train designs like this you can check clearance envelopes and track alignment with only one car, but the second one is used to check turning radii and things like that (although I've always assumed they know that sort of thing anyway).

Those colors are :emoji_poop:ing DELICIOUS. I need to find a way to finland this year

Here's a closeup of the train! It looks absolutely gorgeous :emoji_heart_eyes:.
Thanks to Jussunen at Huvipuistofoorumi for this awesome picture!

That is truly marvellous. I want to stroke it.

very stunning!

What a gorgeous colour, contrasts beautifully with the blue track! I'm just glad they look nothing like those abortions on Wild Eagle's trains tbh, these look fab.

The zero car doesn't look as cute as when it was first showcased...

This post seems to confirm that Taiga will indeed open on Midsummer day this June.

Good to know that bit passes the clearance test.

New ''making of'' video is up and this time in English. Nothing huge but a lot better than the past couple of videos.

I like how they call the Zero-G winder the "360* twisted dive drop"

Just little ''heads up'': Linnanmäki is having a press conference on this Wednesday. It's safe to assume that we will get more information about Taiga ! It's about time really as the season starts on Friday.

I'm actually going to attend then!

Is that IMAscore? It's beautiful. <3

Also:-

Some nice drone shots of the ride!

I wonder how long it'll be until this starts testing?

Wow, this sounds epic! Really fits with the theme!

Looks like an opening date of June 18th at the end. Don't think we've seen that confirmed anywhere before.

Nope, they have said midsummer earlier (which is 22.6). I think this is a better day, so the coaster gets a softer launch

Park said that testing starts today as the season starts also. Let see if we see some train rolling on the first launch for example later this weekend. Construction was active in saturdays so i expect to be with the testing also.

Went to season opening, shot some pictures and a very lucky video:
