Ok thanks, so the element's exit is similar to this exit...?

Yes, of sorts. But imagine if the entry was vertical and not a banked curve upwards.
 
Re: Blackpool Pleasure Beach: Project 2018

Is the video still around? Missed it due to watching Hodor/GoT.
 
Re: Blackpool Pleasure Beach: Project 2018

On page 3 there's pictures of a green Mack design from no limits but its actually very different to the real thing. I wonder what colour this coaster will be, will it actually be bright green with black supports? Who knows
 
Re: Blackpool Pleasure Beach: Project 2018

Just did a simple YouTube search. Here is someones impression of the layout in No Limits.

If it's like that, it'll be fantastic. Not just what Blackpool needs, but what the UK needs. Will put pretty much all the rides Merlin have built to shame.
 
Re: Blackpool Pleasure Beach: Project 2018

Everything I've seen of it; It's not like that. After the second launch, whilst the layout from above is correct, the elevations aren't. Whoever has created that has forgot that the Turtle Chase sight is a lot more elevated than that, a good 5 meters or so elevation difference. There's also an outwardly banked hill on top of the Turtle Chase site and an overbank as it's coming back into he break run.

Quite weird to think this going to have a longer length than Helix? From what I've seen Helix just seems to go on and on and this on plan doesnt look that long.
 
Re: Blackpool Pleasure Beach: Project 2018

^Nah this is LONG.

That video that has been deleted was close and it's very low and quick and long.
 
Re: Blackpool Pleasure Beach: Project 2018

So why was that video (and posts) deleted?

It was good, and looked pretty plausible to me. Much exciting! :)
 
Re: Blackpool Pleasure Beach: Project 2018

Pure speculation but maybe someone like the park didn't like a very accurate video of their ride, almost like it had been ripped from their own concept video, floating around.

Pure speculation of course.
 
Re: Blackpool Pleasure Beach: Project 2018

Wow well that was nice to wake up to, knowing their standards I'm probably being considered right now for Celebrity Big Brother!
 
Re: Blackpool Pleasure Beach: Project 2018

That's amazing, well done cjbrandy! With fame like that, I have no doubt Mrs Thompson will be asking you to officially open the ride! Just remember CoasterForce when you do.
 
Re: Blackpool Pleasure Beach: Project 2018

I'm already seeing them slap that quote down on future brochures. 'Top coaster in the WHOLE of EUROPE!'
 
Re: Blackpool Pleasure Beach: Project 2018

Nice job cj! Have fun competing with Vicky on Celeb. Big Brother!

Oh god, I can't believe this has made it to local news - I hope this pushes the PR and Marketing teams into action and they finally announce it. They can't hide it for much longer as ground work has already started.

Agreed. I'd be happy to see some billboards around the area just to bump up the hype. I mean, Pleasure Beach getting a new coaster is a pretty big deal. Like the last time they got a new coaster 22 years ago...
