New theme park for France

Raise your hand if you came back to look at this park after looking at Walibi Rhône-Alpes on coast2coaster.

According to RCDB, there are going to be 3 roller coasters in total. They have also revealed what sorts of models they are. They are:

• Mine d'or des Daltons (Zierer Force Two)
• Nid du Marsupilami (Zierer Tower Coaster a la Impulse)
• Racing Gallery (Zierer ESC 535)

Definitely seems like quite a family-oriented park from the coaster lineup. Interestingly, the Zierer Tower Coaster is actually listed as a "Thrill" coaster instead of an "Extreme" coaster on RCDB. I think that this looks like a decent little park with an OK lineup, especially if you are a Zierer fan. I can't really judge how any of these will ride because the only Zierer I've ridden is Treetops at Oakwood, but I reckon these coasters look good,

Presumably some track assembled at the Zierer factory.

beware there are more adverts than the superbowl on that page. Bloody awful.

Haha this.

I'm heading down that way over the summer so if this is all finished I plan to pop in. RCDB has a June opening...

So it seems this park will also have a Zierer Force Zero coaster called "Train des Cimes":-

The trains for the Zierer ESC, "Racing Gallery", have arrived:

What happened to the Impulse clone?

What happened to the Impulse clone?

Maybe it's been delayed until after the park opens or something?

 

[roomraider]

While the impulse clone isnt up yet the park has announced 2 new coasters already for 2019

The most interesting is the 30m model of the RES Roller Ball https://rcdb.com/16807.htm
So a bigger one of these weird things


Second is a janky looking Preston & Barbieri Back Spin coaster https://rcdb.com/16791.htm


Is the Impulse clone still coming?

Actually the park never anounced the rollerball and no one seems to know where rcdb got that info.

EDIT 1PM : the Rollerball has now been announced on the park website.

Almost certainly from spoken confirmations at IAAPA. Duane was there all last week and always seems to gather a lot of info.

The only differences from the 19m version seem to be the addition of an extra section above, and the final section at the bottom:-

Whatever happened to that Zierer Tower coaster that was meant to be coming to this park?
