Re: Wanda Hefei | Unknown | Intamin Launched Semi-Shuttle

Good god thats an ugly mess of track ; all over the shop.

Re: Wanda Hefei | Unknown | Intamin Launched Semi-Shuttle

Those last 2 inversions look smooth from the video, but how will they ride in person.
 
Re: Wanda Hefei | Unknown | Intamin Launched Semi-Shuttle

Another video of the tilt coaster testing has gone up

Re: Wanda Hefei | Unknown | Intamin Launched Semi-Shuttle

It's **** disgusting.

The colour, the pacing, the waiting, the awkward inversions. DISGUSTAN.
 
Re: Wanda Hefei | Unknown | Intamin Launched Semi-Shuttle

The whole thing is so unecessary. Might be cute from a spectators point of view, if they do end up dueling.
 
Re: Wanda Hefei | Unknown | Intamin Launched Semi-Shuttle

Seen quite a few people claiming this to be a Golden Horse coaster, including one of the videos posted here. Does anyone actually know what this tilt coaster is?

Love this picture.
A circular non inverting loop and a massive dragon.

This is the tallest loop in the world in theory. taking the record from Flying Aces in Abu Dhabi. However the tallest inverting loop is still Flash/Lightning at Lewa World in Xi'an.
 
Re: Wanda Hefei | Unknown | Intamin Launched Semi-Shuttle

The way the track tastefully twists over at the top makes me tingle with excitement!

Also, kinda useless but, the Duel/Tilt coaster - god knows why its been sped up
'Cos the real coaster is really slow? :lol:

The shuttle coaster is fab though!
 
Re: Wanda Hefei | Unknown | Intamin Launched Semi-Shuttle

That semi-shuttle is really weird, it looks really fun but is the backwards bit really necessary? Why not just launch it straight out of the station?

Hopefully they'll be a nice, normal version of the tilt coaster soon, that sped up version is pointless even at quarter speed :p
 
Re: Wanda Hefei | Unknown | Intamin Launched Semi-Shuttle

Although a powerful launch would have been good, this seems just as fun (plus you get to go up the spike).

I think the park is supposed to open in September

Off topic: This Wanda/Disney thing is so annoying :(
 
Re: Wanda Hefei | Unknown | Intamin Launched Semi-Shuttle

The shuttle looks **** fab, looking forward to seeing the theming on the cars, looks really unique.
 
Re: Wanda Hefei | Unknown | Intamin Launched Semi-Shuttle

I think it's literally just a white dragon. You can just about see if you enlarge the pic and zoom in.

Re: Wanda Hefei | Unknown | Intamin Launched Semi-Shuttle

Is it really that difficult to shoot video in HD in China? :razz:

Love the shuttle; the tilt coaster looks visually cool, but quite uncalled for.
 
Re: Wanda Hefei | Unknown | Intamin Launched Semi-Shuttle

Oh, does this mean it's now open? Thought it wasn't due to open till September?
 
Re: Wanda Hefei | Unknown | Intamin Launched Semi-Shuttle

I don't think it was properly open, just some event that was on.
 
Re: Wanda Hefei | Unknown | Intamin Launched Semi-Shuttle

Oh that's fab.

Re: Wanda Hefei|White Dragon in Sky |Intamin Launch Semi-Shu

How much entire building cost?
Did Intamin all deisigning, manufacturing and constructing?
Otherwise, defining constructing, Did local engineering company;site foundation, installation of piles and beams?
