This went completely under our noses! A new theme park in Bandung, West Java, Indonesia opened recently. It's signature roller coaster is a Premier launched coaster.

The ride features 0 - 62. 1 mph launch in 2 seconds using Premier's new magnetic drive technology.

Riders experience an 82' tall inside top hat followed by a tower spike on its 902' 3" course before it sails backwards through!

Seems like a pretty cool ride, and I hope it's reliability is much more improved from Premier's earlier launched coasters.

Here's the ride in action:

I wasn't feeding any trolls. If there is a thread already there I would like to see it so it can be put together.
