Cotaland: General Discussion

[Benjsh]

I guess lots of different coaster types can be seen as gimmicks. The drop on Thirteen for example is a gimmick, but they can be effective. I think these Tilt Coasters look terrifying!

I suppose the terrifying part isn't the actual drop though but being manoeuvred into place for the drop.

I suppose the terrifying part isn't the actual drop though but being manoeuvred into place for the drop.

Indeed, especially considering that there's only a friction brake holding you in place! I know it's completely safe obvs, but it would still be terrifying.

If it was just the drop and nothing else I'd be concerned, but the rest of the layout looks really fun. And the new generation vekomas are a lot of fun.

Announcement video for Circuit Breaker, still advertising for 2023 even though despite Palindromes track and a train are on site that's not yet been constructed.

Was actually in Texas in the summer and saw the circuit when driving between San Antonio and Dallas, would've liked to stop but the parks website and social media is almost non existant.

Is there any chance this can be converted to a General Discussion thread?
Cotaland has announced a Starflyer and a SkyFall drop tower.

Track and supports have finally arrived at for the Vekoma Tilt Coaster:



So it now looks like a 2024 opening is on the cards.

How quickly does one of these go up? I might be passing nearby in June!
