The park closed it because the ride was to rough. There's work being done on it, which looks like re-tracking. Click for some pictures on the parks facebook page.

Re: Alton Towers | The Smiler | Unknown Gerstlauer World's 1 Did anyone notice that the magnetic fins on the lift (at least the vertical one) retracted right before the train passed by? ~Sneaky

As far as I know, they have yet to be themed. Not 100% sure though, but I hope they will. :)

^No, it's made by Hafema. http://www.hafema.de/produkte/wild-raft-rides/

^I would love to ride that. Just madness. :--D As for the ride itself, maybe. But I think the whole idea of a coaster like EuroMir tops it.

I would say EuroMir is a pretty crazy ride overall. Crazy, but fun. :--D

According to Themepark.nl El Condor at Walibi Holland is getting some of its track refurbished for a smoother ride. This picture appeared on Walibi's facebook page.

To those of you who still have doubt about the keyholes being the supports, here's a picture I found on PointBuzz: As you can see in the middle and bottom-left side of the picture, that's where the track is going to be connected. ~Sneaky

Wow, that's going to be insane. :shock: The english on that site isn't the best I've seen. (though my english isn't great either) I'm wondering what the layout of the Intamin will be. ~Sneaky

It looks decent, though I agree that it appeares to be lacking some excitement and airtime. I would prefer one of my own design: https://vimeo.com/45798422 ~Sneaky

I'm sorry for this, but it is getting quite confusing. Some people on the dutch website themepark.nl said to have ridden it yesterday (guests) and I've seen a picture, showing a full train. (picture below) Others are saying that the ride isn't open yet. source: Twitter J.Erens ~Sneaky

The "Official" opening is on october 1st, but since the ride was ready to operate the had a soft-opening yesterday. In the video I posted earlier it is stated by the park that they wanted to open the ride as soon as possible. ~Sneaky

Re: Toverland | "Unknown" | Mack Spinner ^ That is the name Toverland has given the coaster, so it's correct. :) Also, the first 4 people have ridden the coaster. It is seen in this video (Dutch commentary)...

My first coaster was "Keverbaan" in Slagharen. I really liked it back then. My first inverting coaster was "Python" in Efteling.

Re: SFDK | Superman Ultimate Flight|Premier Rides launch coa If you look at this video and pause it at 0:00 (so even before the first second) you can barely see the train through the bars of the fence and the trees. When you pause it again at 0:01 you see it's gone. So you have to be very...

I've had this as well. I was once laying on my back with both my arms behind my head. In order to get them back to life, I had to get them away from there, which is pretty hard to do. Lucky I managed to roll on one side, (not so easy, since my elbows where sticking out to both sides) so the arm...

My very first rollercoaster was 'keverbaan' in Slagharen (The Netherlands) I really liked it back then. My first coaster with inversions was Python in Efteling. My parents tricked me to ride with them, saying it didn't go upside-down. I found out by myself that it did go upside-down, while in...

Slagharen might be a small park, but it does get a lot of visitors on a year basis. I thought I had read somewhere a few months ago that Slagharen had the second most visitors of The Netherlands (next to Efteling but even more than walibi). If there really is going to be an iSpeed "clone"...

From what I've read on a dutch forum, the Kumbak trains were needed to be replaced, simply becouse they were already worn. I don't know how much of this is true though. Also, Python turned 30 years old last year and that would've been the other reason the trains are replaced (again)
