wait. That images are from a member, and that's is a "how i will made it". There's nothing to do with the official project (there are no images).

^Yeah, andrus did say that they were made by fans and were unofficial.

I think they're a bit **** if you ask me.

I can't agree more to be honest. They're alright, but a bit messed up. I don't understand why people do things like that, they must have too much time on their hands...

Anyone thinking this is going to be the same style as the new B&M in Canada's Wonderland? I'm sure hoping! :p

Well, it might be, but since the park refuses to do any press release about the coaster, there's no official information. I hate not having any evidence to prove this is going to be a coaster and, hence, moving the thread to Ride Construction.


Still, even if it's taller than Silver Star, I don't think PA is going past the 80 meter range... again, pure speculation.

Shall we move this to the Ride Construction forum?

So far, there is only ground clearing but footers should start appearing pretty soon. BTW, for those wanting a ride on Khan, you'd better hurry. Dragon Khan is scheduled to close for the construction in November (it will also get a nice paintjob).

So, could this big square be the splash?

^ possibly.
I must say it is a bit weird having it so close to Dragon Khan. I dont really buy the argument that it'll ruin the look of DK, but PA is a pretty big park from the looks of it, and it just seems a little weird to squish in another very big roller coaster so close to one of their biggest attractions in the park.

Well whatever, im sure it will be great.

But seriously, can the park not at least release an announcement date?!
Do they have to be so secretive? gah.

Perhaps DK is leaving. I just hope it's not. But I think it does good being next to DK, maybe they colour the track colours the same on nearby pieces of track of the other coaster so it confuses the public. It would also give some brill headchoppers.

I know this is not an official announcement, but this comes from the park and at least, we have something now

I cant read it, but i think says something like "2012, llega una nueva atracción fantástica y expectacular" -> "in 2012 a new amazing and spectacular ride"

As always, sorry for my english

A Spanish "soon" pretty much means whenever they can be bothered and aren't too busy having siestas.

Nice! Finally the park confirms that they'll build a new ride for next season :) Soon we'll find out if it really is a B&M hyper/giga or Intamin or what it'll be!
