That looks disgusting, but great at the same time. Decelerates a bit early for me but I moan about most things nowadays.

I am :( I have a real bug bear about drop towers stopping too early, only Scream @ Heide, Zumanjaro and the Fabbri towers do it right imo.
The one at Nigloland is pretty crazy, too. :D

Is the one at Hype Park Winter Wonderland the same model as this, but shorter? If so, I actually found it kinda tame. Fabbri ones are so much worse <3 Annoyingly I was spited by Scream at Heide so I'm yet to ride it.

Testing with dummies now. Work on the station theming is still underway.

Hansa Park have invited guests to a first rides event on the evening of 26th April. However the park will not yet confirm when it publicly opens but its a reasonable guess that it will be the day after or soon after.

I used to think that Nessie's helices were very tight, but that image posted of Highlander smack dab in the center makes me take back that thought!

Park announced the ride will/should open to the public 26/04/19.

I'm torn with this one, I love Hansa park, But am Terrified of drop towers, if this was at another park id probably not do it, but as its Hansa I'll likely give it a go!

You beat me to it - the lighting isn't really on brand with the Highlander theme? If they maybe kept it all green or something, sure? But otherwise it's just not 'right'.

we can only hope that's just the default package and they just haven't changed it yet

I am a little disappointed that there doesn't seem to be a station building of any kind, but I guess it isn't really needed. I expect more from Hansa, though!
