    Submission and Enterprise to close?

    Exactly what I was thinking. Enterprise could probably survive a nuclear blast. Submission has been having trouble recently, since Chance don't manufacture spare parts any more. Parts are expensive, and take a long time to arrive.

    I can speak some German too. Ich habe durchfall.

    How do you say Reverchon?

    It's a French company. So I believe it's pronounced "Rever-shon". Think about how you'd pronounce Chanel, more like "Shanel".

    Submission and Enterprise to close?

    I doubt that Subs will return in the future, since it's slowly dying. Only one arm is currently operable, since spare parts are hard to come by/expensive/take too long to get made and shipped. Ents is like a cockroach. It'll be around forever.

    Most intense coaster/element?

    Even though I've never ridden it, the pretzel knot that was seen on Moonsault Scramble at Fuji-Q looked ridiculously insane. (Embedding has been disabled on the POV, but still available to watch on Youtube) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2wS-JQvl-4M Off ride...

    I think this answers the question quite well. Skip to 9:05. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lE1rMIYzngA

    Inclined Loops

    For me, I guess it all depends on how "inclined" they actually are.

    Favourite Theme Park Food

    It's got to be Auberge de Cendrillon at Disneyland Paris. The food was absolutely fantastic! Expensive? Yes, yes it was. Worth the price? Well, let's just say, I had an orgasm in my mouth, without the aid of friends.

    Re: New "world's first" coaster at Alton Towers 2013 The Vekoma "whine" is actually one of my favourite noises!

    Scariest coaster you have ever been on

    Probably Wild Mouse at Blackpool or The Ultimate. Mainly because I thought that my life was about to end.

    Merlin's £200 million acquisition fund

    As far as I'm aware, it IS their main goal.

    Merlin's £200 million acquisition fund

    I know that Merlin are trying to buy PortAventura. Not sure how far they're getting with that. I understand that they're trying to beat Disney in terms of visitors per year, becoming the most visited theme park operator in the world. Disney are able to beat them with only 9 parks and Merlin's...

    11 Inversion Coaster for Jinling Happy World, China

    Isn't that Shenzhou Coaster at Beijing Shijingshan Amusement Park? That was made by Beijing Shibaolai Amusement Equipment. This one at Jinling is made by (big breath) Hebei Zhongye Metallurgical Equipment Manufacturing Co Ltd. The Hebei one is a clone of the BSA one. Beijing Jiuhua Amusement...

    11 Inversion Coaster for Jinling Happy World, China

    Their fake SLC has now started testing. Notice how much the train judders as it goes through the "Sidewinder-that-isn't-really-a-sidewinder-because-it-looks-more-like-an-immelmann" inversion. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltcl2Vc2GmI Looks lovely, right?
