Jardin d'Acclimatation (Paris) to add 17 new rides including Gerstlauer Bobsleigh!

EDIT : The ride should be called "les rockets", which I do not need to translate.

It is Simple English for "Nuclear Disarmament", right?

Some construction picture in the snow! "Nuclear Disarmament" is on the right

If anything is rocket-powered in this park it's the powered coaster...

mediapart.fr talks about the constructions finishing in time, but also about citizens wanting to sue the park because they fear rising numbers of visitors and the consequences coming with them.

Looks like the opening has been postponed until June 1st. The park mentions the bad weather this winter and that the paths did not get ready in time. The announcement has been made on Friday (four days before the park was supposed to open), looks like the planning is pretty weird.

This coaster looks like great fun! Gerstlauer and Jardin'D are on to a winner with this one! On a random note, doesn't this open tomorrow?

 

[Hixee]

Well that was unexpectedly rather fab. How cool! The world needs more double-down drops.

 

[Lofty]

That looks really good fun!

On a random note, doesn't this open tomorrow?

It does!

Quite excited to see how much of this park they've changed up.

Mist!

I'm surprised they managed to run 5 cars on this ride, with it being quite small, they obviously care about throughput! Tiki-Waka also runs 5 cars, but is larger.
