Sorry if it's already been posted.

With the launch of Intamin’s brand new website, comes a look at the layout for their proposed 12-Inversion Coaster.

Those not too fond with their 10-Inversion model, particularly for the Heartline Rolls need not worry as this new design has had a complete re-vamp!

The new layout consists of:

* Pretzel Loop
* Cobra Roll
* Vertical Loop
* 5 Corkscrews
* 3 Heartline Rolls
* 3 Airtime Hills

The new layout looks rather promising, and to be honest I am already rather fond of it. The combination of inversions, along with a decent amount of airtime hills and a ‘Mega Lite-esque’ first drop and corner should provide for an experience far better than the rather uninspired 10-Inversion layout.

Looks like good fun. :)
 
So it starts with Piraten, goes to Fahrenheit, and then finishes with basically Colossus.

Well.. not a huge change.. but better then what we've had.
 
I'm rather... Meh about the layout... The abundance of corkscrews is just overkill... Just like Colossus' inlines...

It would be interesting to see what kind of trains they would put on this... Considering the Pretzel Loop I would guess the smaller ones would be most likely...
 
Didn't Loefet or somebody recreate this in No Limits?
 
^^Quite correct, I think it was Loefet, but I'm not sure. I downloaded an exact track like this from the old NLDC Scapryard, but never got round to supporting it. I also saw a launched version at one point too, that would be really funky.

The re-creation was actually really good, however I don't know it the ride would actually be any good in real life. It seemed a bit... well... pointless.
 
This is 2 or 3 years old. I loved how this was posted on TPR and everyone jizzed over it as if its a new exclusive product.
 
I had a look on Intamin's new website and can't see it on there. The site is still under construction, unless I'm looking in the wrong place.
 
IMO still resembles Colossus somewhat. But I guess that's what you get with 12 inversions..

It's at the bottom of a PDF about the multi-inversion coaster.

The layout look pretty meh, too many corkscrew, I mean enough is enough, or at least invent a new inversion for the ride. Lazy ****s. I remember the snappyness of the corkscrews on Fahrenheit were pretty brutal with lats, and 5 of them is just....death.
 
Yeah, this layout have been out there for a while now. People are right, there was a NL Re-Creation of this, it was slightly different to what this layout is, it only had 2 corkscrews if I remember correctly? Anyway, a launched variation was also made, Hixee is right as apparently there was talks of making a launched variation of it.
 
I certainly haven't seen this before - I know the brochure has always said that there is a 12-Inversion model, but whenever I looked, there where not any more detail on it.

Nonetheless, even if it has been seen previously, I guess most people haven't seen it :D
 
Looks a tad repetitive and this has been around for years.

+ There are 4 Corks, not 5. Follow the track.

It says on intamins web-page that it'll have 32 persons/train.

Regarding the layout I think it looks great! Both pretzel loop and cobra roll in one layout plus all the airtime and tight bends make it look fantastic :) And I'm happy they choose more corkscrews instead of just barell rolls, Colossus is rather dull to be honest.. I think it'll be a great ride, just not as good as Dragon Khan and the likes!
 
^Considering most people are nodding in the general direction of a B&M for Thorpe, and the fact that the layout is essentially Colossus with added randomness, I doubt Thorpe will go for it...

LC could mean ANYTHING...
