Dammit! Ignore mine, then! Sorry about that!

Will this be getting rid of the jumpscare? I hope so, it always freaked me out!

Thank you! Someone else who feels my pain.

If you think that "very slowly turning around to reveal Barney's ugly cousin standing there doing nothing" counts as a jump scare, I suggest you give EP's horror nights a miss.

 

[Dar]

It's not how slow it is, it's how close to my face it is

 

[DiogoJ42]

Remind me to invade your personal space a lot next time we both turn up to a meet.

It's only that one that bugs me, I'm fine with other dinosaurs

Did someone say red Sat track?

 

[DiogoJ42]

Well that should help it blend in to the dark. :/

I get the feeling new EuroSat isn't going to be in the dark. Quite the opposite in fact, from the moment I realised the CanCan re-theme was for the standard ride and not VR I've suspected there's going to be a lot of show lighting in there! Imagine Rock'N'Roller Coaster but more caberet. Would certainly make for a very different experience!

Michael Mack shared this incredible photo of Eurosat last week:

Because of the heavier trains, new Sat will utilise a special track type from Mack:

This project is so unbelievably custom.

It can't be cheap.

This project is so unbelievably custom.

It can't be cheap.

All of Europaparks MACK ride installation are custom by default.... it’s the prototype showroom for the company.

I’m sure there is a good market for a compact coaster style in the family thrill market for them to exploit, particularly when a lot of the competition in that market are a little on the cheap side.

Does anyone have an suspicions on opening date for cancan coaster? as I'm planning on going week of the 8th June - is that too early to be considered 'summer 2018'?

I don't think it is out of the realm of possibility that it will be running by then but I wouldn't get your heart set on it. Hard to tell really with the little information coming out about the progress and the fact we can't see most of the construction. I would guess they want it open by then though.

 

[Rob]

When we were there at new year they really had no idea when it might open, even Roland Mack had not been asking the project team about a possible completion date as he knows what a complex project it is and he wants it to be done correctly and well.

Of course they'll want it open for the summer, but would I be confident about it being ready for the start of June? Probably not, it could be pushing it a little.

 

[Plastic Person]

August until the end of the season is Europa's busiest period, so they will definitely need it open by July or thereabouts, but I too think June could be pushing it. However, this is EP, and they don't hang around much with this sort of thing.

Looks like the refurbs continue with Teatro dell’Arte in Italy. And a new show which looks to be based around the waterpark’s backstory.
