Yeah, this really looks fantastic - glad to see that not only are you (finally) going to get a great looking coaster, but a really original one. I hope it is as good as the artist's impressions make it look.

I assume this will be an Intamin ride?

I'd actually be surprised if it is Intamin, as everything I've heard until this point was rumours of Premier. Keith's animations are typically super-accurate, and if that's the case I'm very confused! The support structure and track look Gerstlauer-ish, the coaches with 2-axles per car, Premier, and the linear motors mounted between the rails, Intamin. So I think we don't quite know yet. S

Yes, a very great ride! S

But DragonKhan said, that these ride will build in Paramount's Kings Island: onride.de viewtopic.php

What is right? S


Wow, you see a step-coaster-element in the video! Great!!!
Enjoy the silence! ;)

Both Kings Island and Canada's Wonderland are receiving the same ride.

(Next year, Canada's Wonderland will have a whopping 14 coasters!)

This coaster really looks like so much fun... Why don't we get such coasters in Germany here...

Who is now the manufacturer of the coaster?

The Kings Island ride continues to have heavy testing. I don't beleive the Wonderland ride has started testing, I doubt it will open on time (but I would love to be proved wrong!).

Canada's Wonderland opens for it's 25th season on Sunday, May 1, 2005.

Drachenritt, Klotticoaster and G'sengte Sau are made by Gerstlauer. Are they in any way affiliated with Premier Rides?

It's true, at least the "Drachenritt" is a very good fun coaster, although it doesn't give me such thrills. But the Italian Job looks much more interesting.

No no - no connection between Premier and Gerstlauer (not that I'm aware of, anyway!). I was just comenting, that small and fun coasters do exist that sound great inside Germany. S I think Italian Job will be the first coaster like that, with that kind of ride feeling, in North America.

Well, the ride opened tonight for our Seasons Passholder Preview Night. The park was packed and the line for Stunt Track was over 2 hours long all night! I got on it twice. Some photos...

Some coments:

Smooth, very fluid, and very abrupt! Every motion the train does is very commanding.

-Onboard audio isn't working yet
-Vibration (subway) isn't working
-Headlights not working.
-Fishtailing is not really aparent? Maybe it's disabled or something?
-Doors are VERY COOL.
-Last launch out of the sign doesn't appear to do anything
-Helicopter scene is WAY COOL!
-Third train is to arrive sometime this week, in operation next weekend (2
trains currently)
-Line is a straight shot, no switchbacks, full queue is about 1h45.
-People have no clue how to use a single riders line, and the operators have no idea how to LOAD PEOPLE from a single riders line (all night they were pulling groups from both lines, instead of using singles to fill empty seats)
-Did I mention the trains are so awesome? Super comfortable and awesome looking. Very, very impressed.

Launch is insane. It starts out SO PATHETIC and then it's like FWAAAAAAAAA it just explodes with this massive powerful compound acceleration. I LOVE IT. It totally caught me off guard! I put my arms up and it started moving and I was like "Oh. Well this is... not powerful." and then whoahhhhhhh it just TAKES OFF AND GOES.

Very nicely done.

It is so much fun. S Sorry I didn't get any photos of more of the ride. The problem (well, I see it as an advantage for riders) at Canada's Wonderland is that the ride is completly pushed back from the midway, a couple of hundred metres, so you can't see any of the ride at all from the park. You can only start to see it once you get close to it in line! So all the surprises are still there for riders once they get on the train.

At Kings Island, everything is completly exposed, you can walk around all 4 sides of their coaster so nothing is left as a surprise for you. But of course, it would be better for people to make pictures/videoclips of that machine. S

Thanks for the round up. Looks like a fun ride. I was a bit dissapointed when I saw a news report with a video of the ride, but it looks like there are a few more things to do like some of the effects and (especially) the audio.

I have heard a lot of comments that it is too short though - would you agree with that?
