    Vekoma testing something new ? (at their testing facility)

    That first element actually looks the same as the first element of Vekoma's Top Gun Launch Coasters. Now I'm curious if Energylandia's layout will be the same or something different.

    Vekoma testing something new ? (at their testing facility)

    I think East Asia is the safest bet for the 4th one. Most of "New-Gen" Vekomas are there and I'd be surprised if some of their parks/chains didn'd go for another model.

    I know RCS are masters when it comes to coaster building and assembling, but this seems crazy fast even by their standards!

    Not sure if third train is needed or even possible - the coaster might be so short that they'd hit minimum possible dispatch times even with two train ops. If anything, the short ride time actually makes two train ops more efficient.

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    I don't really think the length will be such a problem - yes the prime ride time will be short, but as others have remarked, there are many rides that can be considered short yet are worldclass. Personally I've ridden Zadra and Lech more than any other coaster and they never felt short to me...

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    They really had to think outside the box to desing such a large coaster in such a limited space and I totally like the uncoventional design. The 180° twisted drop is a really clever solution and I think it would definitely provide good ejector. The layout has by necessity sharp pullouts...

    Energylandia's Future Additions

    Yeah, the single line mine train above it confused me and I jumped immidiatelly to conclusion. Still think it looks like a powered coaster though

    Energylandia's Future Additions

    To me it looks like a powered dueling coaster similar to e.g. Max and Morris

    Energylandia | Abyssus | Vekoma Shockwave+ | 2021

    What a pleasant surprise, I wasn't expecting them to realease the full POV until the theming's finished....I'm not too concerned with the trims as the coaster was designed with them in mind (to emulate the classic first drop, I guess) and you should still get good airtime in the back and as...

    Energylandia | Abyssus | Vekoma Shockwave+ | 2021

    Nope, not what I meant at all, just wanted to stress that I rode all three coasters on multiple days, in various different conditions so my opinion is not based on one visiti which might have been a fluke....and in general I have always found airtime on Lech the strongest of them....I suppose...

    Energylandia | Abyssus | Vekoma Shockwave+ | 2021

    I did not state it has the most ejector, but the strongest....I am a regular visitor to both parks, rode all three a lot and that's how I feel about them

    Energylandia | Abyssus | Vekoma Shockwave+ | 2021

    If it is anything like Lech Coaster, then it will definitely have the strongest ejector in the park....and if the pacing is good it will be the best coaster in Poland

    It is kinda weird that there will be two B&M inverts called 'Monster' in Europe....but then, there used to be two B&M inverts in the USA called 'Top Gun' until they both got renamed in 2007

    Well the layout has to be very compact hence hence turns would be tight, so shorter trains make sense I guess
