Re: "Unknown", B&M Invert for Parc Asterix

Holy hand grenades that is tall, or looks it from that angle. I'm still uber excited about this coaster, can't wait to see the layout properly.
 
Re: "Unknown", B&M Invert for Parc Asterix

If we can get more angles, we could see the positions of the supports and get a better idea of the layout, especially around the station.

Going up up up!

^ .... thats one hell of a footchopper.... never seen construction like that before!
 
Re: "Unknown", B&M Invert for Parc Asterix

^ The placement of the connection plate along the horizontal bar tells me that there is going to be a banked turn going between the legs of the supports too. That ground does seem to be a little bit too close though, maybe just the angle of the picture?
 
Re: "Unknown", B&M Invert for Parc Asterix

^Agreed with above.. I think it shall be at least slightly angled.. and I do think they'll dig out a little bit of a trench as well.

So FAR.. this does look quite good tho.
 
Re: "Unknown", B&M Invert for Parc Asterix

That confirms that there's no pre-drop as well. I wonder how that's going to feel. I personally like the feel and look of the flared out drop, but we'll see how this goes.
 
Re: "Unknown", B&M Invert for Parc Asterix

^^^ Its not to do with the angle...

and its not the only place they've done it;

Dont know if its just me, but it just seems so strange building it like that.

Also, does this mean 3 (or even 4) trains?

If so, then this MUST surely have a MCBR?
 
Re: "Unknown", B&M Invert for Parc Asterix

^ Unless they have three and only use two of them at any time, with the third one as back-up/undergoing maintenance...

But I have to say after looking at all the pics on Potionmagix that a trip to Park Asterix is a must next year...
 
Re: "Unknown", B&M Invert for Parc Asterix

Hopefully it will be like Montu and have some forces.

Never liked Asterix that much but that coaster means I will end up going back at some point when in France.
 
Re: "Unknown", B&M Invert for Parc Asterix

First drop is done!!

From: Potionmagix!!

With all the supports already up, it won't take long before much of the track is installed.
 
Re: "Unknown", B&M Invert for Parc Asterix

looks Great, Very close to the floor at points ?#
you spent a few mins looking at that update? i spent a few hours lol it was that big !
 
Re: "Unknown", B&M Invert for Parc Asterix

^^ If you check that massive update, you'll see there's loads more supports to go up yet!
 
Re: "Unknown", B&M Invert for Parc Asterix

First drop from another angle:

Should be quite fun in the back row!
 
Re: "Unknown", B&M Invert for Parc Asterix

It doesn't look all that big from that angle, compared to the other angles, but NOM B&M invert that looks like it won't suck!
 
Re: "Unknown", B&M Invert for Parc Asterix

Looks like that this first drop is innovative for a B&M of its kind ?
 
Re: "Unknown", B&M Invert for Parc Asterix

^Yes, just noticed there isn't that little pre-drop section at the top of the hill, almost reminds me of the track style used for that new flying coaster in China (correct me if I'm wrong...).

Looks good! Especially for Asterix, home to that death machine...
 
Re: "Unknown", B&M Invert for Parc Asterix

The drop looks ALOT steeper and tighter than the concept artwork picture, yum yum.
