    Vekoma testing something new ? (at their testing facility)

    Possibly the speed of the rotation, otherwise the tilt will likely not be too different from other tilt-coasters. The rest of the layout will ofcourse be drastically different, 'new gen' Vekoma profiling will make a huge difference.

    Are there any "old hat" coaster elements that you're sad to see going out of fashion?

    Not so much a ''wish they were still used'' element, since they rarely were in the first place, but I'd love to see a Sea Serpent Roll used in a new layout. I absolutely love that element, the one on Xpress Platform 13 might even be my favourite element in Walibi Holland *runs for cover* For...

    (Family) Suspended Coaster @ Slagharen

    They were never going to choose one of those three models as far as I know. Among guests and passholders they held a survey to see what style of ride was most appealing to visitors, just to get a sense of what the public would want. It was never a case of the coaster getting the most votes would...

    Fuji-Q | Zokkon | Intamin Multi-Launch Motorbike | 2023

    I wonder how many trains it will be able to run when at full capacity. With that much track there have to be quite a number of blockzones as well I'd imagine🤔

    Efteling | Danse Macabre | Intamin Dynamic Motion Stage | 2024

    Cannot wait to see this show once it's done. Knowing Efteling this will be top tier. I'm amazed by the capacity of this thing. 6x18 seats = 108 guests per cycle.

    Holiday Park | Tomorrowland Area + Ride | 2026

    Fair point, but I think as long as they get payed enough they'll build anything the park wants. Matter of time before Europa Park gets a spinner anyways.

    Legoland Deutschland | Maximus: Flight of the Guardian| B&M Wing Coaster | 2023

    The article does say that this coaster will be the first at Legoland Deutschland that will feature a "short upside-down moment". Bit of a silly way to put it, but this does confirm that it will have one inversion. Great addition for Legoland! Name leaves a lot to be desired but oh well

    Parque Warner Madrid | Gotham City Escape | Intamin Launch Coaster | 2023

    Any guesses as to when in 2023 we might see this thing open? It's the first big project I've been following. Have there been any similar projects in recent years that could tell us a bit more about the opening month? Would it be realistic for this to open at the start of the season, late...

    Parque Warner Madrid | Gotham City Escape | Intamin Launch Coaster | 2023

    How is there zero curve to that stall😮 It's just a straight piece of track upside down

    Toverland's Expansion Plan

    Toverland has posted the fourth teaser, quite an interesting one this. The text is written upside down, and when the image is viewed upside down you will read the exact coordinates of the centre of Fenix' helix. Gerst SkyFly sounds like it would fit the bill, would it fit in the helix though?

    Late to the party – Belgium – August 2022

    It's not a extremely in depth tour, but it's deffo worth a watch😃 (English subtitles available)

    Toverland's Expansion Plan

    So Looopings got their hands on the building plans, revealing quite a few things. https://www.looopings.nl/weblog/20655/Bouwplannen-verraden-meer-details-over-vier-nieuwe-attracties-Toverland.html - The Parachute Tower will be built on the new land in the water, as expected. It will be 40...

    Cedar Point | Top Thrill 2 | Triple Launch Renovation | 2024

    Been thinking about this as well. Might even be able to do something funky like the spike on Star Trek: Operation Enterprise.

    Legoland Deutschland | Maximus: Flight of the Guardian| B&M Wing Coaster | 2023

    Looking at Legoland's target audience I reckon for a lot of children this will be the first coaster they go on that goes upside down, and with that in mind I think it pretty much hit the bullseye. Not too intense, but a decent step up from the kiddie/family coasters to the bigger thrillrides.

    CWOA | Mandrill Mayhem (World of Jumanji) | B&M Wing Coaster | 2023

    If I'm not mistaken the on site drawings showed the B&M "serial number" WI-S (or maybe WI-R, not sure), indicating that this is a Wing Coaster.

    Worlds of Fun | Zambezi Zinger | GCI (partial) Titan Track | 2023

    I'm wondering why they didn't just go for a full Titan track layout? What's the benefit for WOF to take wooden track, apart from that it'll likely be cheaper? Bit of a weird one, spiral lift is interesting but the rest of the layout seems a bit generic. Just one small but forcefull outerbank...

    Europa Park | Voltron | Mack Rides Stryker Coaster | 2024

    Not sure if this has already been talked about, but the name of the building documentary is Ohm - The Construction Documentary. Couldn't that be a reference to the name of this coaster? I don't really see them calling it Voltron Coaster tbh, doesn't sound that great if I'm honest... Ohm would be...
