Happy Valley Nanjing | Nanjing China | Theme Park

I like the look of that little speed hill after the loop. Cool looking opening string of elements all round, actually.

Not 100% sold on the end, but I suppose you can't win them all.

Amusement insider has a new no limits recreation of “light of revenge” I like the similarities it has to cheetah hunt, hope to see a real POV at soon.

 

[Hixee]

Looks an awful lot better than Cheetah Hunt! Far less similar than I expected, to be honest.

No MCBR is curious on a ride that long though. I wonder if Intamin's block technology has improved since 2011. Maybe they can use the launches more effectively as blocks or something now?

Like it'll ever run more than one train

A good point, well made.

So who's gonna say it?

That coaster ≠ fast. It is very much !fast.

 

[emoo]

It's as fast as a rotating restaurant. With contactless tech they could put a vending machine up there.

Closer video of testing.

Longer testing video from different angles, I think they could get away with dialling the speed up a wee bit.

God, that looks... dull? Are the launches there to wake people up or something?

Looks about what I expected. Better than Cheetah Hunt, but nothing jaw-dropping.

Light of Revenge looks SO GOOD... as a sucker for theming, I just love rides that got thrills and combine a cool atmosphere
Also is this a clone of Cheetah Hunt or is it different from it? Some peeps that I talked to say that it's a clone and some other peeps say that the only similarity is the figure 8 element

If you watch the POV you can clearly see it's not a clone. It's very much 'inspired by', but it does actually have a lot of differences.

I also don’t think that POV will necessarily do the ride justice. The camera is clearly mounted on some sort of self correcting steadicam and I think it takes away a lot of the small manoeuvres and moments of intensity you’d otherwise be able to pick up.

Another park we can certainly unsticky as its been open for the better part of a year.

This park managed to ruin my clean sweep of Happy Valley parks. Looks like I need to get to Nanjing.

Fiiiiiine.
