- attraction new paultons park
I agree that a Mack Watercoaster would probably have the same 1,1m height requirement as the all the other newer ones. But would they really build two additional coasters in an area of the park that already has one? A watercoaster on its own is pretty expensive already...
I think you are right, no way they are paying for 2 expensive rides in one year.

Just having a look at the footers and could they be similar to Juvelen/Yukon quad?
I am no footer expert, far from it so could be way off, but thought of this as it has I beams, and I believe the height requirement is 1.2m for Yukon quad at least.
Although the footers at Paultons seem to be even larger than this from pictures, hard to understand the scale..

You could be right, however, I believe Intamin no longer does the the I-beam supports and I remember Lawrence Mancey in the superfans event that he would love to bring Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure from universal to Paultons Park.
Although I might be slightly disappointed if that's the case as I would hope to be a coaster with an inversion, but it would be a nice addition to the park. Obviously it will all be reviled in may fingers crossed

Looking at the footers, I know this may sounds a bit out of the question, what about something from Maurer? I know Maurer Söhne haven't been mentioned but, what about their spike coaster for instance. It's a unique ride that has inversions and very compact. Not sure on the height requirement but it's an attraction that hasn't been mentioned.
Two pics from the Sky Dragster Construction, could be a fit
the height requirement for these usually seems to be 1.2m as wellAttachments

Surely Paultons have more sense than to buy a Maurer Spike coaster! The two that have been installed so far have been maintenance and operational nightmares haven't they?
Also @Shrek-Racer what makes you think they are capable of inverting? They are pretty slow and the restraint is basically just a seatbelt!

Thinking about it, Maurer has quite a bad reputation for reliability as Dragons Fury at Chessington World Of Adventures tends to have a bit of downtime. If they did work with Maurer, I think it would be a risky move going forwards but I would say it again, we'll see what they announce for the superfans day in May.Although not exactly the layout itself, the newer models can actually invert.
