Whenever I feel guilty because of too much procrastination, or otherwise being very uneffective, I think of Brexit and I feel better :D Even at the highest levels of power they don't seem to know what they are doing!... While I do have serious criticism about the EU - too much power given to...

Of the coasters I've ridden, Flash/Hyper Coaster gets my vote. Solid Hypercoaster with an awesome first drop, very decent airtime and fun inversions. Curious to try an Intamin Megalite, or the upcoming Vekoma Firestorms (any news on the Vietnam one which was supposed to open last year?!...)...

Miyapa Masane released his animated recreation of the ride :D

Couple more pictures courtesy of the ECC :)

Can't really see, but does this have lap-bars? It would be a really fascinating development if so. Otherwise, looks pretty fun to me :)

Fair enough then -_- #criticalresearchfailure

To add a little on this off-topic linguistic stuff, the French word for bat is 'chauve-souris', literally meaning... 'bald mouse'. In fact, I remember back in my childhood 'l'homme chauve-souris' ('the bald mouse-man') was indeed regularly used as a synonym for Batman, as just using the English...

We have rails on-site!

*triggered Frenchman rant incoming* :D

Generally agree, although that Transmart deal for 50+ Junior Coasters was arguably very sweet for Vekoma :D

Intamin's double whammy announcement at IAAPA 18 was the definite jaw-dropping moment for me. So thrilled to finally get a groundbreaking ride at my home park! Also, Walibi Belgium's Mega looks like Expedition GeForce upgraded with RMC-like funkyness. For moments during park visits, besides the...

Good topic idea as often @Matt N ! My money is on a Chinese park buying a dueling RMC, and then never actually run both sides. *sarcasm*

Layout complete!

B&M Wing looks amazing from the ground!

I'm more and more intrigued by the evolution of Golden Horse. Custom layouts, moving away from the old Arrow/Vekoma track and so on. We used to brush off and laugh at Chinese 'knock-off' manufacturers, myself included. Juding by Miyapa's mounted POVs the trackwork still noticeably rattles, but...

Local news channel report :) A brief summary and reminders of what we already know: - Construction started in November, with the actual assembly in March - Coaster will be 31m tall, 85km/h fast and 575m long. - 30 workers on site - New restaurant and small family Teacups to open with Mystic...

Ooooh nice funky drop here! Source: CoastersWorld.fr

Anyone mentioned the brake run on an SLC yet?

Hyperion without the floater hill. I understand Intamin (or perhaps the park itself, who knows) wanted variety, but in my opinion this second camelback slows the momentum too much. Replacing it with a big ejector moment would have made Hyperion even more exciting! Icon without the weaker...
