Holiday World Adds a Launched WingRider - Pics and Video!

[Dirk_Ermen]

Looking great! Too bad there are no pictures of the ride on a different spot. These train photo's are all from the first immelmann

The station is kickass, the trains are kickass, and the photo quality is kickass!

So I just got a video of Thunderbird doing a test lap. It freaking looks insane. It hasn't been as fast today going through the Immelmann, but he loop seems to have a consistent whip!

Post it...?

I have to edit all of it, then upload it. Hopefully It'll be public by tonight.

I guess if you watch the webcam from this link, you can literally move it anywhere. I'm kinda weirded out. I saw the train go through the whole thing. I want to be happy, but I don't think they know you can move it from that link.

Wait how do you move it from their? They're testing again right now.

^They disabled it. :[

Also, the video should be released sometime soon.

At least I'm not the blindest human being in this universe then.

What...

How is that compared to "5 minutes" at Thorpe park?

You seriously need to elaborate on this 5 minutes thing in your Trip Report or I might go insane

Here ya go.

That looks pretty good. It's seriously flying through it's course! Awesome!

Thanks for the video! It really is moving at a good clip, looks like the helix might pack a punch. All of the B&Ms this year have pleasantly surprised me in one way or another.

Looks nice.

Dat pacing doe. Damn!

I'll say it again, GREAT year for B&M!!

Love the pacing! The coaster is so all around complete, I say B&M knocked out of the park with this. They are on a roll lately.

One thing you can't really tell from the video is the roar. It was music to my ears. Media Preview day is April 23rd.

Seems like its taking the course far quicker than other wingriders anyway - it really flies through that loop!
