Is it just me or is there a bump in the trackwork between 0:33 and 0:35? That part doesn't look that smooth to me.

The track was fanmade by DerMuffinMaker on NLE, but the park decided to use his video in their promo without asking him


Well that's disappointing - especially as they didn't even credit him :/ I wondered why they hadn't got the NL team to custom make a train for them.

This can even compete with the Vekoma's awesomest launch coaster that we've talked pretty much about here! Yeah, close to the perfection as the "launched" layout.

Did you like it? :D

"500" perhaps by the end of this year.

At the end I was like: Wow, a second launch! But then I realized it was the same launch and they are using it as a brake.

yeah Maurer AG use a similar system on one of thier launched X-Cars - I think if the park only wants a 1 train operation it saves a lot of space and money!

This is some of the weirdest shaping ever. Looks like it will be a lot of fun.

Yeah looking forward to the POV. I guess the ride isn't overly high so construction can be pretty rapid.

Doesn't look bad to me. It will also be going through that at a very high speed too.

Not "ouch" in any jerky way. I think "ouch" caused by the g-force surge! ;)
