I figured since there's a USA one I'd do a thread on my area of expertise.
someone else can do the European thread if they like.
People in the USA thread were moaning there are no normal coasters anymore. There should be more normal coasters here thankfully.

Thanks for posting these. Most of these, I didn't know about. That Intamin hyper is what interests me most. We need more of those in the world.

The Intamin hyper has one of the most insane drops I've ever seen. Think steel El Toro.
The image here is a bit small but it's all we have so far.
This is it before the drop went in.

That's very odd. Whats the point of all that straight track? The trend has been less and less supports on the lifts as possible, that thing is packed with them.

It's explained as a panoramic curve. It's by far the tallest ride in the country at the moment so I guess it's for the views. Which I can appriciate.
As for the support structure I'm unsure. The lack of supports on rides like Fury, I305, Leviathan and to a certain extent Skyrush are because the thickened and extended spine makes an arch which strengthens the hill and requires less support. I guess with a curve at the top you can't do that.

Lewa World is also building this waterslide in the adjacent waterpark, one of the commenters mentions thinking its 198 feet tall... So hyperslides are possibly a thing now... I'm guessing that's 198 to the tip of the structure but that is still immense.

I have so much love for Mack.
And they apparently have so much love for you Roomie seriously, isn't it about time they gave you a job?

They share a few of my posts not quite a job worthy relationship
On another note
Check out this awesome drone footage from the now finished Led Zeppelin/Time Machine coaster from Hard Rock Park at it's new location at Ocean Park in Vietnam.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QL67HOXFDxo -

Great Video! Neat setting that it's in. Always thought it was a unique and interesting layout. Are they even reusing the station?
