Speed Dragoz: La Luge Des Carroz

[Slamming Coastercore]

Hi guys, not totally sure if this is the right place to do this, but I believe I’ve found a new Alpine Coaster!
I go skiing for a long weekend with the family one a year and this year we’ve decided to go to Les Marillons in the French Alpes for the second year in a row. One of the ski runs takes you down to a small resort called Les Carroz and I very quickly noticed something that wasn’t there last year... an Alpine Coaster! I appreciate this is by no means groundbreaking, but there is nothing like an elusive +1 to get the blood racing. Unfortunately I couldn’t seem to drum up the same enthusiasm with my family so I had to abandon it today. But I’ll be back tomorrow and you can be sure that i’ll do my best to get on it (as well as getting some photos)! I didn’t get close enough to read a name, but after some searching online i’ve found that they’ve named it Speed Dragoz: La Luge Des Carroz. I’ve searched on both RCDB and Coaster count for this coaster, but can’t find it anywhere. Anyway, to the point, my question was how do I inform either RCDB or Coaster count of its existance?
Cheers!

This reminds me that I still need to get the old Trago Mills cred listed so I can count it on coaster-count! I’m pretty certain Duane at rcdb is cool with people emailing about unknown creds but I don’t have his address, sure someone else can chip in with that

Have emailed both sites before, both had replies recieved with coaster added to database! Both sites may be slow to add anything but are always grateful for additions.

Cheers guys, really helpful! I’ll do all of that once I have returned from skiing today and have the photos (and the cred too)

I didn't realise they ran many of these during the winter actually - I always assumed they were either covered in snow or closed. Bet it's pretty cool riding one at this time of year!

Oh definitely! I was surprised to see it running too in this weather, but i’ll try to also get in a sneaky POV so you can appreciate it in it’s snowy glory too. There is a chance I could get spited by the clouds as if they’re too heavy they shut down the Ski lifts, but as the coaster doesn’t open till 3pm (odd, I know) I’ll just have to keep the fingers crossed!

Couple of photos for you guys. Did manage to also get a very shaky POV recorded on my compact Will have to wait till I’m back in England though to upload.

They do and it's so much fun riding them after a day of skiing. Though I believe it's only the twin-railed ones that are running in Winter, while the single-railed Brandauer ones are mostly only open in Summer months. In fact, I just came home from Bled now and their Alpine Coaster was partially dissasembled and in storage.

And great news about finding this one @Slamming Coastercore! It's always nice to find a coaster that you didn't know about!

PS: It's also listed on Wiegand's website as a 2018 project; https://www.wiegandslide.com/alpine-coaster-references-en.html?wgrls=321

After visiting RCDB for over 10 years now, it's a truly amazing feeling seeing one of my photos on the website on a coaster I found! https://rcdb.com/17141.htm
