Alton could plug it as the worlds first multi element wooden splash down coaster???

My god that is sooo much bigger than the one on the Palace Pier (sorry for non Brighton folk Brighton Pier).

It's like any new tech, there is going to be issues. They should speak to Alton Towers, they are specialists with issues with new coaster tech.

Or invad uur or uhh. I hope the coaster compensates for the name

It think it's just the angle of the pic. It will be interesting to see what the trains are like. I'm glad the layout is the same, I've always enjoyed it even if I did loose a camera on it a few years ago.

Possible replacement for the flume....worlds first multi launch Rmc woodie on the entire flume site and down towards forbidden valley, hence the documents submitted for environmental impact report, with a token splash at the end in a new clean lake as a nod to the old flume.

Problem is people will keep paying, Merlin will keep this **** up. It's not about guests anymore, it's about how much we can get out of them.

I thought that with the outward facing supports, another worlds first maybe.....The tallest Ferrari advertising tower in the world. I would love to have excitement for this, but it just seems a condescend cheep version of the Abu Dhabi park. Surely Ferrari would not want another park not...

Surely if something was going to be placed under the hill (path/road/building etc) surely the supports would be placed further apart from the rest, not the same distance apart.

Super looper at lightwater valley, it was back in 1991 I think. Also the chance tower coaster of death at Great Yarmouth pleasure beach.

I loved cheater hunt, the only pointless bit of the ride is the inversion. Im sure this is why it has over the shoulder restraints. I'm glad that this does not invert and concentrates on hills and changes of directions. I can't wait to see a pov. I need to get over to Germany and see/ride this...

That would be a shame if they went. They are a nice unique ride although they are a capacity nightmare. Sounds like if they go this could be the next area to be redeveloped/themed. What would they put in to replace them? There is a fair amount of space, also the woodie will run behind this area.

I still can here that song in my sleep, it won't leave my head. I have not been on Its a Small world for 5 ish years. It's good that the uk are getting a couple of new dark rides. It will be interesting on how this will compare in quality to Thorpes. I bet that Adventure Island aren't throwing...

Re: Universal IOA to close Hulk for new enhancements Just because the actual rails look like they are not capped off. The spine prob will be filled with sand. I could be compleatly wrong.

Re: Universal IOA to close Hulk for new enhancements Looks like it may still have the old hulk roar. The rails looked hollow to me. Also I don't remember the track being that much of a Matt finish with the supports being a glossier finish. I'm looking forward to seeing what the final outcome...

That would be nice, if only the planning restrictions in the uk weren't so tight. A building big enough to house a theme park would never get passed.

Re: Atlantic City | unknown | US Thrill Rides Polercoaster GuyWithAStick will be all over this?? Sorry mate no offence. :lol: I would love to see one of these built and turn out good, but they all seem very ambitious considering the proposals all come from the same guys as what is being...

Re: Walibi Holland | Unknown | Mack (unknown) To me this looks like a track made from people either on Blue Nun or Riesling. If this ride has non spinning cars I will have to give these drinks a go. The transitions seem to be so sharp. If this is a spinner then Maurer Söhne will have to up...

Re: Alton Towers submits planning permission Coming from the same place that renamed caribia creek to Alton towers water park

Re: Fabbri Spinner for Gardaland in 2016 Not a great choice I must admit. I've been on the one in Great Yarmouth pleasure beach. The split lift hill was the best bit I thought. **** ride. Merlin really need to get their act together....
