Walibi Holland 2019 - Untamed: RMC Robin Hood

This is looking great, I must admit. Now, I???m going to bet on 3-5 inversions featured in the layout (but my true guess is that it will be 3, exactly). 3 seems to be the magic number for inversions on RMC coasters.

Tonnere de Zeus looks really good plz don't touch.

I rode it this summer and it's gotten really rough. It has some good RMC potential too.

No, RMC ruined too many good CCI's to my opinion.

Like... (I know the Legend at Holiday World used to be a popular RMC candidate that I can think of, but I LOVE the Legend)

Gonna take this slightly of topic since Zeus is being mention because...

For those threating about Zeus being RMC'ed, dont worry. That's not happening any time soon because the coaster is being retracked over the winter:

^wow, that's great news! Thanks for sharing

I think this ride has as much potential as the Legend at Holiday World if retracked correctly and well maintained.

Right, back on topic. The pre-lift turn is now complete and the lifthill has started to go up:

Interesting. A lot steeper lift hill, but it won't be much taller. It didn't look like they removed much from the original drop, so perhaps will it get some dip before the actual drop?

More details revealed in this video:
- The angle of descent of the lift will be 40 degrees
- The first drop will be 80 degrees and 35,4m/116,1 ft tall
- The first element after the first drop is a micro bunny (example: Steel Vengeance)
Also noticed by some people are the ledgers in the turnaround: looks like at least one inversion will be there

When can we get an official layout reveal or at least elements reveal?

They will probably reveal element after element and not the complete layout at once

Just obnoxious... That's a flat turn banked to the incidence of maximum lats. So stupid.

I'd like a dip before the drop - I always feel like straight up drops don't benefit the front as much.

Walibi Holland director Mascha van Till confirmed the rumor of Untamed having 5 inversions in an interview today!

Too bad, sounds like this will be as well an inversion coaster with all rolls instead of some casual airtime.

Well, i guess Untamed having 5 inversions is official now:

Untamed is going to break records! With no less than 5 spectacular inversions, it will be the only RMC and the only hybrid coaster in the world with so many inversions! What is an inversion and what it does to you, you see in episode 4 of the Making Of: Untamed. # 14february #makingof #newride

Who should you go to #Untamed on July 1?

It will be interesting to see what those 5 inversions will be.

Details revealed in this video:
The former turnaround will be transformed into
- A Step-Up Under Flip
- A 97 degree outside stall

Cool dude, seems like a fun turnaround.

Interesting drone video:

This is awesome. Much better presentation of the ride and project than all those "official" videos combined. Not as cringy too...

I do wonder if this is how RMC designs their rides: Just fly with a drone and toss some tricks in here and there.

The shade of brown they're using for the track reminds of the "shiny" brown from RCT lol.
