It will have OTSR's.

Unfortunately, that source is not accurate. A roller coaster has not been directly mentioned, so not sure where they got that from. I see that the source screamscape.com has used also calls Vertigo a roller coaster, so maybe that explains the confusion... Just so we adjust expectations accordingly.

Exciting stuff! Does anyone else think we might be looking at some kind of semi-shuttle with some switch-track magic here? The overview of footers doesn't suggest a particular long layout, so maybe some clever tricks to make it more substantial are in order?

Those are great shouts! Thanks everyone! We're also trying to look into a more positive direction of any cases of individual attractions or additions/expansions, that you could argue have "saved" a park or at least helped them tremendously. Of course such an example totally escapes me at the...

Hi guys, I'm currently working on a project for university in which we want to look at "financial incidents" in the theme park world. Preferably we are looking for a theme park that had a rough patch at some point in history, but also maybe got out of it. Could also be an attraction within a...

Universal Studios Beijing was allegedly $6.5B, so I would assume Epic Universe is at least in that ballpark. I have a little magical dream that Universal will go for it and finally bring the Wizarding World to Europe 🥰

Thanks for the report! I'm curious as to how it tracks? It looks like it might be shuffling a bit around from the video posted earlier.

New POV with normal video speed: Looks great.

Presumably the idea here has been to introduce inversions in the most family friendly way by taking these at slow, gradual speeds. But is that necessarily more comfortable than at greater speeds? Is hangtime family friendly? I think that's an interesting thought.

Happy to see that 😍 The quite wide 2-tube track also lends itself to the Multi Dimension Coaster theory:

^ What an emotional roller coaster. Glad to hear that though! Was a bit sad about how Colossos rode after the re-track (haven't ridden it since spring 2019).

Made up or not, I do see why it could be of interest to Universal. They have yet to bring the Wizarding World to Europe and buying PA, could be one of the more sensible ways to do that.

Could this be a next-gen Vekoma Motorbike coaster? It's been stated for some time on their website that their working on a new version of the model: https://www.vekoma.com/motorbike-coasters

That actually looks a bit like a mirrored version of DrageKongen's layout...

Hope it's okay that I resurrect this thread with some positive news. BonBon-Land issued a press release yesterday stating that they've turned a profit for the first time in 15 years! This is fantastic news to me and absolutely warms my heart. CEO of BonBon-Land, Lars Fahlmann comments in the...
