While browsing round on a Japanese themepark blog I found yesterday I spotted (out of luck) that he had a post that said something about Orochi and Greenland (Mitsui).

I flowed the link posted to a press release about a new ride at Greenland and to my big surprise it was a Togo Wildstorm!!
The best thing is that this isn't one of those new version's of the ride (Parabo at Nasu Highland, etc.) but the old completely awesome Togo flat ride of DEATH!! Since Togo is more or less bust and I haven't seen new rides produced by them for years, means that this ride can only come from Expoland.

This new ride opened on the 19:th of September this year and is called ジャイロストーム (translates to: Gyro Storm).

The ride page have a video of the ride working (video link is the grey box underneath the ride image on the ride page) and here you can really see why it's so awesome :)

This have given me another great reason why to go back to this awesome place...

A bit of topic but still relevant to Mitsui Greenland and Gyro Storm is that the shuttle loop have been removed :( and it looks like this ride have taken parts if it's place. Just the loop left - RCDB
