I think It proberbly is A Sohne, The basic layout suggests it, but there are elements of Gerstlauer.
They're obviously going to take their time, and 2 years (Well, Nearer one and a half) is a long time to build a spinner.
Lets hope they don't have any problems like Fury/Whizzer did.

Looking at the blue prints of the ride and looking at other maurer sohnes. It looks to me as its a modified clone of the Xtended SC 2000 which can be seen here:

And here:

But im not complaining especially when i saw the size of the first drop:

So with indoor and outdoor sections with the mix of cinematic effects it looks a really good ride for disney land resort paris.

Just one question, one the second pic it looks as if Cars will be replacing something nearby, I must check my map...
Anywho, having recently(-ish) going to the Studios, it needs more. Really you can go there for the Stunt Show alone but also it needs more than RnR and Armagedeon...
I think that it will be a good addition to the park, and when ToT opens I will have to revisit it again...
Knowing Disney and indoor rides just gives us a small hint really...

Well I have found on a Disney fan forum a detailed discription of the attraction, with what it will be etc.
The Queue line will be covered, but will not be themed as a coralreef like previously planned, instead it will resemble the Sydney harbor as in the movie, with poles in wood, fishing nets on the ceeling and lanters will light up the area.
The loading zone will have the same theming with either walls in brick or wood.
A hut in bamboo will be placed next to the loading station with 2 seagulls on it.
Once the trains have left the station, they turn left and go up the first lift and immediately going outside the building, as can seen on the plans. Right before the lift, we'll see the shadows of the 3 sharks.
The lift will be themed as a coralreef, and will feature 2 characters from the movie: the blowfish and Jacques, the French lobster who cleaned the fishtank in Finding Nemo.
In the darkride part, a brand new projection technique by Imagineering will be used, which can project the characters very close to the riders, which will give the impression that they move in a real 3D set.
The technique is a videoprojection on a transparent screen, a bit like the post show of It's a Small WOrld with the little characters in the different houses. Everyone who has seen a demonstration off this new technique was impressed.
Two animatronics will also be part of this section: 2 fish set up in 90?, so that both will be visible for the riders facing backwards. They still have some problems tuning the double show, so that all riders have a good view on the different scenes.
Next is the Coaster part, an underwater effect will be used which is similar to the starfield in Mission 2, but it's not limited to just some bubble projections, because there will also be the jellyfish attack which will be physical effects (jellyfish on a wire...). 3 Underwater tunnels with a dry wet effect (similar to the Squid attack scene in the Nautilus) will also be added to the track, soap bubbles (as in Animagique) are also considered as an extra addition.
Projections will also be used in the coaster section, Crush and his friends invite us to join them in the East-Australian current and sea-beds will be used to give dept to the sets...

It's being built now! Well, sortof - just some groundworks so far, but with it being a Disney ride they should really be starting the major construction soon so that they have a lot of time to tweak things in the final months. They've "only" got 18 months left!
Here are some new concept artworks for the ride, thanks to www.dlrp.fr ...

Well, you are under a pier so I am presuming it would be made to ahev an underwater effect perhaps? I am not totally sure.
I really am loving these cars. They just really suit the idea of a spinner and if they are anywhere cloe to be aswell constructed as the Winjas cars these will look blooming bootiful.

It's nice to see some photos of this ride. I'm excited about this new attraction; more than TOT. It seems that they've left it a bit late to start...they'll finish it in time though. The building looks a little small. However I'm sure that this may be the best spinning coaster out there when it's finished, it may even beat Winjas.

The first piece of track has finally appeared on the construction site, seems they may actually get constructing the coaster soon.

Vertical Construction has started.
But what really suprises me is the fact that disney got the portable version of this ride. Why didnt they get a version with less supports? Hm, I guess it doenst really matter because itll all be themeing anyways, but still...

jey, I guess ur right about the gudget... I mean, ToT is coming along too next year.
I also think that this ride is a great addition. The spinning rides are so much fun and with typical disney theme it just has to be good. I hope to be able to ride it soon.
And, oh well, the Studios despreatly need a new ride...

It's come on loads in just the last few days, take a look:

The whole "coaster" section should be complete in about 2 to 3 weeks, with the dark ride section at the front starting after that. They're currently working on the walls and foundations at the front (dark ride) whilst the steel is being constructed at the back (coaster). It'll be interesting to see what technique Maurer use for the dark ride, in terms of getting the vehicles moving through it. Any ideas?
It still makes me laugh that DLRP is essentially getting the same coaster as Camelot... (minus the dark ride section and themeing) lol
