Which Park Will Be The First Western Park To Go Chinese?

[Niles]

And so it begins, that has got to be a pretty cheap cred for a park being small and people powered, these might start popping up at little parks like this all over the place, also that slide in the background of some of the pictures looks terrifying

Ummm interesting, if I get two of these and hook them up to a tandem bike I’ll have duelling coaster for my back yard theme park, nice start

£3300?

Build it in back garden, charge adults £5 a ride. Only need 660 cred-hungry goons to break-even.
Could even run it like a HB Leisure game: "Cycle the roller coaster car up the lift hill in 10 seconds and win a massive teddy!"

Tempting...

Kinda throwing this thread back on topic, I really could see a cheap small park that is in a desperate need of a standout steel coaster being the first to cross the line and get a GH. Some parks that come to my mind are Alabama Adventure, any of the Fun Spots, or Texas Wonderland. Get something that looks big and massive while a bang for your buck.

This one beat switzerland by a few years:

Chenille - Mont Mosan (Huy, Liège, Wallonia, Belgium)

A 3 grand coaster is a much better idea for a garden than a rockery. Do they just helicopter it all in pre assembled all inclusive Not quite ready to give up on holiday money in limbo just yet though.

I am also keen to get back on topic of the larger scale rides falling into the newer design and interesting layout category. A dragon wagon variant that took years to recognise is lacking somewhat .

If it counts… Universal Studios Beijing, owned by a Western company in Universal, is opening with a Golden Horse family coaster among its lineup: https://rcdb.com/18734.htm

I wonder if there's a political element to the reluctance, especially in the US?
I imagine parks in some areas would struggle to market a Chinese made ride, not to mention the general distrust of Chinese manufacturing in certain places and demographics
