Lost Gravity Mack Coaster - Walibi Holland 2016

Also "Unkown Mack Coaster - Wallibi Holland 2016" isn't true anymore. We know the coaster is called Gravity.

Shouldn't it be- Gravity Mack Coaster - Wallibi Holland 2016?

No bad idea Coaster Mind.

^Did you just compliment yourself? haha

Looks funky! I like it!

^^ Thanks for the ride's official name! I thought that Gravity Mack Coaster would be Gravity Max Coaster. Just a phonic pun! xD

^^ D'oh I later noticed the ride name was actually "Lost" Gravity lol! Looks like I'm not on the ball today so just forgive me.

^Well what I understand so is it its name

Here is a simulation by Tobi of what the layout is like right now.

That tophat thing is insane

This is also as mysterious as Taron's concept is.

Maybe it's a spinner.

That would be an extreme spinner, I like it

That means it will spin like a crazy teacup lol! Lost Gravity = Get Insanity!

If that's a spinner it would be freaking amazing.

Well they had a spinning car on Blue Fire so......

It seems too striaght for a spinner, like surely without numerous twists and turns you'd just stop spinning for large portions of the ride?

It seems that the spinning of the cars on the prototype Blue Fire train was controlled to some extent; the onboard camera shots seemed to show a consistent spin rate regardless of whether the train was going through a vertical loop (little lateral movement) or a corkscrew (significant lateral movement and banking).

If you look at the lastest picture it contains a flat turn as well. Still could be something spinning related.

Tobi made a new video:

Onride IF the coaster was a spinner.

^ This is not bad, actually.

Yesterday we covered an innovative new water ride from Mack at Walibi Belgium, and today we will look at an equally interesting new roller coaster going into sister park Walibi Holland - also said to be from Mack.

The new coaster will be named Lost Gravity, that much has been confirmed by the park via their social media feeds. The exact details of the ride however are still a mystery, though popular rumor pegs the new ride as being of the spinning variety. We all know for sure that the ride will have a bit of a bumble bee color scheme going on:

So yes - the track alternates between black and yellow throughout the ride, however this photo (one of a few "official" ones the park has sent out) has another important thing to point out... that first drop! The track quickly inverts as it drops toward the ground so as to not really invert riders but is still quite dramatic in appearance. The rest of the ride (a speculative layout was created and posted here) that is standing so far includes a large top hat, several air-time hills and a long elevated mid-course with another inverting dive.

A great set of "through the trees" type of photos was posted to Imgur two days ago, available at this link. While zoomed in quite a bit to get past the trees, you can still see several of the newer elements that are in place. The park's full reveal for Lost Gravity, whenever it takes place, will be most anticipated.

Is that a corkscrew or an inverted top hat? I can't tell.

That's the weird banked top hat that can be seen in other pictures.
