Parque Del Café | Yippe | Gerstlauer Family Coaster

[CrashCoaster]

RCDB lists Parque Del Café (the same Colombian park that has Kráter, an Iron Shark Eurofighter, and Montaña Rusa, a Schwarzkopf Speed Racer) as having a Gerstlauer family coaster under construction named "Yippe":-

Looks fun! Rather odd choice of name, though.

Does it have a station launch? It looks like it goes upwards after the station. Also looks like it has a switch track so it can run 2 trains.

I like it.

Double post, but I find it funny how the coaster has a decent-sized drop into a trim, only to then bank up and right into the brakes. EDIT:- I've just realized that that trim section is going to be a splash down, as seen on the concept art photo.

Here is the same layout picture, but embedded so you can see the full layout:-

Is the splashdown going to be a SheiKra-style water skimming splashdown or a proper water coaster-style splashdown? I'm presuming the first one, but I just wanted to clarify.

I don't think there will be any physical contact with the water, I think it will use fountains, kind of like Shambhala, mainly because of the trims in the splashdown.

Thanks @ATI! It should be a cool effect! According to RCDB, this is due to open in February 2018, so they're gonna be pushed!

You're obsessed with ****ing trims...

You're obsessed with :emoji_zipper_mouth:ing trims...

I spotted this six months ago:

Finally I know what your username means: All. Trims. Identified.

Kid sure loves trims!

Looks a bit like Shambhala's with less theming. Overall, this looks like a nice family coaster!

Dang, those fountains shoot up really high! This looks really good!
Not a huge fan of the color scheme though. Reminds me of some knock-off Golden Horse roller coaster color scheme.

Trains are on site and seemingly testing is under way:

This whole ride is just so cute for some bizarre reason!
