    Walibi Holland | Untamed | RMC Robin Hood Conversion

    This is looking much better than I was expecting. Obvs its gonna be fab as RMC but recently the smaller ones (twisted timbers / wicked cyclone) haven't really got me going but this looks a lot better for some reason.

    Kings Island | Orion | B&M Giga Coaster

    I imagine cost. Whilst a short Giga is still a Giga it does look a little too similar to Diamondback to be a particularly exciting addition.

    Phantasialand Live 2019: CANCELLED

    From a selfish point of view, I’d rather do PA since A) I’ve not been there and B) I’ve done Phanta a few times recently and wanna wait until fly. So would be happy with the proposed change!

    Farup Sommerland | Saven | Vekoma Custom Family Boomerang

    New rides @ small parks

    Bit ****e if it’s one of those rough as tits Tsunami things, how about a Fabbri invert like this https://rcdb.com/1107.htm I’d like an Orkanen clone and for the park to try and wangle the overbank as an inversion, those models are really good fun.

    The Brexit Thread

    It’s tricky as the whole leave/remain debate has knocked down the barriers between the left and the right. The typical right wing voters are keen leavers (even though the EU is very pro big business and pro capitalism) and the left wing voters are typically remainers who hate capitalism and big...

    Swarming Up For The Season | THORPE PARK | 31st Mar 2019

    We need to settle on a term for back-and-forth launches

    I’ve actually heard this one a few times now!

    Gardaland to add waterpark for 2020?

    It would have to be pretty special as Caneva world up the road is extremely popular, I also don’t think you can really justify an indoor water park in the Italian climate, they’d have to operate it standalone to Gardaland as if it followed the theme park season it would render the idea of it...

    Energylandia | Zadra | RMC I-Box

    This is the biggest reach for an 'i told you so' I've ever seen. This has literally nothing to do with the rate at which the parks expanding! Wind loads are awkward especially when its for a non typical structure dependent on phasing. Doesn't excuse anyone though, but as @Hixee said its likely...

    Flamingo Land | Sik | Intamin 10 Inversion Coaster | 2022

    I can’t help but feel that if a 10 looper does appear at Mingo the decision would have been based on cost as opposed to actual integration of the ride itself. Almost as if the park has thought the price of the ride (it’s mentioned above it’s going very cheap) represents too much of an...

    Are regular investments into large-scale coasters going to become a thing of the past?

    I think we’ll start seeing peaks and troughs forming in terms of investments, established parks become complacent and smaller parks will try and steal the thunder with a bigger ride, competition leads to bigger investments but economic uncertainty can lead to smaller investments, too many...

    Your favourite old-style amusement park

    Really liked Gronalund and it’s traditional vibes, Liseberg is great but feels a little too modern to be considered an ‘old style’ amusement park.

    Liseberg 2020 Dark Ride Underlandet

    Was just thinking about the name, ‘underlandet’ gives off a spooky stranger things ‘upsidedown’ vibe, appreciate its translation is likely nothing of the like as pointed out above but seems a bit dystopian for a kiddie ride to me.

    Flamingo Land | Sik | Intamin 10 Inversion Coaster | 2022

    So this coaster that’s floating around somewhere, is it the original model or the slightly upgraded lapbar model?

    Possible new ride/rollercoaster coming to Thorpe Park in 2019

    Looks like Thorpe are trying to claw out some positive PR after they officially announced the closure of Loggers, talk of infinity coasters and skywarps in the comments but it’s referring specifically to 2019 so no chance it’s a coaster. Anyone know how long the licence for ‘Im a celebrity’...
