Some pretty good concept arts if you ask me :) I feel the park will definitely taking a new dimension with this addition - if it comes true of course.

Oooh, I love the space age / futuristic style of that concept art. If the real thing comes close to that, I'll just adore this thing that little bit more. <3

I really like that concept art- I loved Silver Star's building due to the atmosphere so I'm sure that this will help the ride no end in terms of appeal to me.

Is this still projected to open in 2018? Asking for a friend*

They're still saying 2018 on their Facebook page (they're very active and open to all questions at the mo!), but not saying a date. But I don't remember how open they were with the water coaster's opening being delayed on social media, so take it as you will..

As much as I'd love this to open in 2018, I couldn't plan for this until it's gone through a bunch of testing. If it starts testing in June I might have to slither though.

Yeah, this. I will wanna go soon as I see it testing, though. BOOOOOO.

Its first time when EL starts construction works so early, so I guess opening in 2018 is not at the risk of delay.
i've been to energylandia twice and i know that they dont care about the opening schedule ... like "speed" should had opened in 2017 while it's opening in 2018... that's annoying

Yay more construction vlogging from Energylandia. Jump to 0:28 for some Hyperion concrete shots.



As a matter of comparison, anyone remember how long did construction take for previous large-scale Intamin mega/wing coasters? From what I see on the forums, there was a little less than a year between the first pictures of Coaster Through the Clouds going up, and its opening.

Is the park heading for a late 2018 opening then? Just mere speculation, I'd be glad to hear from more knowledgable sources!

Yeah and SW8 started construction in like January of 2017 so your comparison isn't very valid at all

^That doesn't look like Intamin track. Unless Intamin have altered their track design, that to me looks more like the new-gen Vekoma track.

Maybe they're using the Flying Aces style track:

Which is very similar to the I305 and Skyrush track:
