It's amazing that the Chinese can't think of one coaster for themselves. Even here, first element after drop is Immelmann like every B&M dive coaster. They are incapable of thinking out of the box. That said, these have 4 car trains which means the airtime in the back row on the drop will be far more extreme (look at Jinma vertical coaster off ride, the back seat will have sustained ejector airtime). But I am sure they only did that for capacity and did not realise the extra thrills it would bring. As I said, they can't think, they just copy. Like EVERYTHING else in China. Innovators of precisely nothing in the world.
It definitely looks smoother than the hulk. The corkscrew in the middle is not a cool dive roll, the ejection out of the tunnel leads into a straighter drop
I cant comment properly because Ive only done Hulk, not this. But it looks like in an attempt to make the ride smoother, they made it too tame. Especially the first corkscrew.
This is absolutely amazing and smooth! Taken the ride for 8 times and still want more. You can enjoy even better views at night. Not dizzy at all compared with the 3D ride. And actually not scary as it may seem.
To answer all the questions and strange comments here: This rollercoaster was completely destroyed due to Chinese regulations. There are about 3-4 evacuation points in the entire ride which the train can also approach in the event of a power failure or similar. There are block sections, so to speak, for all trains. But the Chinese didn't believe the Germans and it had to be possible to evacuate everywhere. That's why the footbridges were pulled in everywhere, in so many places where it made no sense, and all the water basins that were filled with figures, water and splash effects were not allowed to be built. Now, as of last winter, the planned water basin even has a vertical lift platform to carry out a possible evacuation, which would have been technically possible in many places on the ride if Mack had solved the problem. This is just to make sure that everyone who writes comments here doesn't think that the concept doesn't work or that the idea behind it is brilliant. It could have been brilliant. But they didn't allow it and trusted the German technology. PS: The replica roller coaster "Garden Fantasy" / 花苑奇境 in Guangzhou Sunac Land didn't need this, by the way. God knows why... And PSS: The operations are also bad... there are too many trains on the track; the pre-interval is not well maintained and at the end you are blocked and stopped twice long before the station (incidentally at the positions planned by Mack ;-) ) and then drive into the station without a soundtrack. In terms of operations, there are therefore two trains too many on the line, possibly even three too many.
It’s a copy. Nothing original about this ride. Cheetah Hunt will always be the better brother. This one just has a better lighting package due to it being newer.
You know this isn't the first time Intamin have cloned their own layouts right...? And if it's the theming that makes Taron what it is, then what's wrong with only the layout being copied? :)
Cheap copy. Why has China no motivation to be innovative? Its always the same. Copying something and release it in an other shape. But idc. The Chinese should enjoy it. The original one is next to me.
