What's new

New attractions at Paultons Park

Fantastic, thanks Niles. The logo is upside-down on one gate and there's huge emphasis on the "forge". If this doesn't have inversions I'd be absolutely amazed. I wonder if the banners and shields have other clues...

Regarding Cobra, as others have said, it's sure to be rethemed. We can be certain no one will be able to ride "Cobra" after September 2025. Not meaning to be pedantic, it's just how I think RCDB is so certain that the ride - as it is - will be closing.
What if the two metal bars is a hint at two coasters, the logo is inverted on one but normal on the other. Perhaps a dueling coaster where one track is family and one is thrill.

It's a possibility, yeah. That would be a good idea, actually, as not everyone likes inversions. Two coasters sharing one structure - one, a genuine wooden-tracked family coaster and the other a Titan-tracked extreme coaster. That would be excellent.

If they made sure their next water ride was a water coaster as well, the park would have ten creds. 🤣
 
What if, and stay with me on this one, the wood and metal pattern made to look like a wooden gate is a reference to ... a theme appropriate wooden gate
Get out of here with this logic…

Anyway, I’m pretty certain I remember Lawrence Mancey saying his favourite cred was Wodan at Europa at the super fans event. Slam dunk if you ask me.

Only time will tell, there will be definite clues in those posters that’s for sure!

A fully wooden gate would have sufficed, but they chose to tease or trick us.

I don’t really think that's the case. I believe this is mainly due to Paultons' nature. The general public seems to be somewhat unaware of the Vikings area; I assume that not many people even knew about it until they saw this sign, so I’m making that assumption.
 
Some of you are massively clutching at straws.
To bring us back to reality... if you look carefully at the design, the mixture of wood and steel means it will be a hybrid coaster with each of the 20 spiked posts on the gate representing the 20 inversions. If you take the Rocks from the left portion of the design, the Metal from the gate section and the Circle of the shield on the right potion and put them together, Rocks, Metal, Circle = Rocks, Metal, Circle = RMC!
The two flags represent the two sides (duelling coaster confirmed)! The mirrored (flipped) logo confirms my suspicions that you'll be riding the coaster wearing mirrored goggles that make everything look upside down to add to the disorientation.
TLDR, 20 inversion duelling RMC with mirrored goggles. You're welcome.
 
From a staff member a while back….
Cobra and Magma to be rethemed to fit Vikings. Go karts and log flume to go. Beyond that he knew nothing else, or wasn’t giving any more of the game away. There’s a new electrical supply box near Edge, whether they’ll keep that too is anyone’s guess
 
Out of interest, has anyone done an overlay of real wooden coaster track and compared it to the one on the gate? To my untrained eye, it looks exactly the same proportions. Personally, I think the inverted logo and metal rails on the wooden gate are real clues, but we'll see.

I agree, if we are assuming that the inverted logo in the video means a coaster with an inversion, then inturn the inverted logo on the gate must be a clue. Therefore there must be other clues on the poster, which looks like it will be a wooden coaster.
