A bit of an update on one of China's most exciting new parks shows construction of several new rides and some interesting concept art.

Not sure what this tower is but I assume given the positioning it is either the Maurer Sky Loop or whatever the tower at the far end of the boardwalk is in the next photo.

Some awesome looking themeing here but does anyone know what that tower at the end of the boardwalk is?

This image shows the new S&S launched coaster is a mirror image of the new Bullet Coaster at the Happy Valley in Shenzhen and also shows the parks Vekoma Mine Train with some very odd themeing in the bottom right.

I love how it has a McDonalds <3

And I hope that Frisbee is the same as Shanghai's, that thing was off the hoooook.

It all reminds of me off Shanghai's actually, which is good, it was probably my favourite.
 
Wow, this looks incredible. I think that looks ore like the tower at the end of the board walk, rather than the lift hill support for the skyloop, judging by the positioning of the woody.
Which, by the way, also looks amazing,

The layout of the launcher looks the same as the one they had to completely rebuild in Shenzhen.

*sigh*

Also, they did a lot to it, but, they haven't completely rebuilt it in any way, shape or form.
 
I thought you meant the tower on the left of the photo...

That looks like a dodgey square Ferris Wheel?
 
I see you contribute about as much as usual, Erol. Which is pretty much the same amount as someone throwing their keyboard down the stairs and then pressing submit.

SO.

Who knows what that thing on the left of the broadwalk is, and is more useful than a cock-flavoured lollipop, unlike... guess who...
 
^ Why are you guys so nasty?
It was a simple mis-understanding on what Ben thought people were referring to in the concept art.
A simple acknowledgement of what you meant is all that needs to happen.
Ive found that these forums can be very nasty at times, lets just focus back on the topic instead of insulting each other ok?
 
Ben, Erol - D1993 is spot on. If you want to fight/argue/whatever, take it to DM's.

And don't add more pointless posts about it after this one!
 
Hey

Well it wasn't that obvious as it's been suggested on several forums I visit that the tower was for the big similar sized square tower with HANKOW written on it at the end of the boardwalk as that is mostly black in the concept art where as the Sky Loop is blue.

But as has been proven that suggestion was wrong.
 
^Could it possibly just be a square ferris wheel? I can't find the picture (I have no idea what it's called, only that it's a square-ish ferris wheel on the side of a building in asia somewhere :p ), but could it almost be more like that one that's on the side of a buidling in Asia somewhere?

Or like those continuos lift/elevator things that are sometimes found in old buildings? Really lame morning for me membering the name of these things! Hopefully my desciptions are enough.
 
^Yeah, I know the square Ferris Wheel you have in mind, I had that in my mind when I said that might be what it is earlier in the thread.

God knows though... Guess we'll find out!

Oh, and since this is supposedly the X Car that didn't make it to Knight Valley, what's happened to the launch one?
 
Ben i believe this must be it. It's in another section of the park but the concept art isn't the best.

or it could be this one

But I assumed this was the junior coaster.
