What the hell were they on when they designed this orange one? It's perfect though, with a lot of airtime and really strong positives. Evidently Intamin feels the need to break barriers in the lateral direction as well now.

That Intamin was nothing like I expected. I think I'm disappointed, but I'm not sure.
Boulder Dash was the only good roller coaster.

I think the Intamin looks pretty fun, lot more snappy than it looked offride and I might have spied some lats.
All hail your great Arrow Dynamics overlords.

Doesn't look like to me a knockoff in the video, it's just wicked, I guess! No wrong g-force snaps can be seen. ;)

You know it's a good ride when the first thing the guy said is bleeped out.
Oh, were you expecting something here?

Another knockoff SLC has gone up at Wanda Harbin. It's a clone of the other knockoff SLC at Wanda Nanchang, but it uses custom track with outside wheel assemblies similar to Vekoma 2nd gen. Looks like they also have an indoor ski resort, a knockoff spinner, and a heavily themed mountain ride thing.

I still cannot fathom why people seek to replicate the misery of snow on purpose and then put it in a building.

That gigantic building dwarfs that invert! Oh wait, is that park smaller than we are thinking? :shock:

It's like China excels in making certain areas look like they fell out of 1980's Chicago. Shame the invert isn't a real Vekoma, because it would probably be really neat with some decent engineering.
