Next year? Its for 2026. 🙂 I admit In less than a fortnight that will be next year

It's much worse. This isn't huss it's one of the even rarer Schwarzkopf Enterprise models

Basically yeah..but the fishhook would have been so tall that single car train would have easily been past the height of falcon even though it was a shuttle.

It amuses me that while it is the tallest coaster ever built it isn't the tallest coaster almost built. The Vegas fishook would have been taller. If it wasn't for the city of Vegas voting down the project the fishook would have been taller than Falcons Flight over 20 years ago and i assume this...

These photos from China show an interesting ride built by a Chinese aerospace research firm near Xi'an in the early 2010s. The exact purpose of the ride isn't known but it certainly looks like it wouldn't have been a pleasant ride. Photos courtesy of Xiongmao.

Not to drag us off topic again (but seems I am) Myanmar and Liberia also use Imperial. But along with the USA those are the only 3 countries that use wholly imperial. Britain is slowly changing at least. Don't know anyone who measures their weight in stones anymore 🤣 just need to sort the speed...

Official trailer for the park. Looks very well themed. Includes some renders of 2 of the 4 coasters. The SFC and the Ghostrider.

Over Water Roller Coaster, an old school jet coaster at Honey Lake in Shenzhen, China has sat SBNO for 17 years, left to the elements for that whole time I think we all knew it was never coming back. But still kind of sad to see it ripped down.

For those interested the official park announcement is in about 30minutes (probably mostly in Portuguese) at 12:30 GMT

Some video stills of the new B&M taken from this video https://m.bilibili.com/video/BV1LRBQYrEP4 The layout has changed slightly from the original concept art, but they have handily updated it with new concept art.

I love finding something weird and this ticks all my boxes, This is the recently opened Roller Coaster at Gohar Park near Sirjan in Iran and it's like nothing I've seen before. Featuring B&M style box track, a vertical loop and a watersplash, the ride was built by Iranian company Shadi Sazan...

A new park for Brazil has been announced for 2027, The park called Cacau Park will be situated near Sao Paulo. The park is being built by Cacau Show which already owns at least one small indoor park in Brazil. And recently bought up the famous Brazilian Playcenter brand...

Sorry for triple post, but as they are all on very different subjects in different countries it seemed easier for people to be able to reply to individual topics :) Happy Valley Shenzhen has announced a swing launch coaster which will take the spot of the parks now defunct Vekoma SLC, Hard to...

It would appear Kaleidoscope Park in Belgorod, Russia will be adding a Zamperla spinning coaster in 2025, A clone of Wild Mouse at Cedar Point. This will be the parks first roller coaster. Once again no idea how they got arould sanctions (Do they even cover amusement rides?)

The B&M Batman: The Ride clone at Wonderla Chennai in India has gone vertical. This ride was previously located at Kuwait Entertainment City as Lightning.

Should be popping down Thursday morning. Turns out I've got at least +3 maybe +4 to pick up somehow so going to need to take out a loan.

Vekoma is fairly easy. They littlerally name their track models after the track guage. The track used on new Vekoma rides (Abyssus, FLY etc) is MK1100 track and is 1100mm in width. This is the distance from the center of one rail to the other. The older MK1200 rides (like corkscrew at Alton...

There's a new (for me) coaster there this year with Time Machine so will probably pop down. But I'm pretty lucky that I can go during the day on most weekdays so I can pop down about 11am, not only do you get in for free but it's normally pretty dead. So can get in ride whatever I want with no...

Great call, completely out of left field that.

I have no idea how they have got around it? Especially as Intamin rides are manafactured in Slovakia. But it seems they have. Footers are already in for the Intamin Hot Racer - Mahuka cloone the unknown family coaster footers are also in Dont recognise the layout on first glance. Footers...
