Parque Warner Madrid: General Discussion

[Poisson]

If Coaster Express rode like Bandit the retrack helps to an extent. Not amazing, but it's removed potholing etc

Then I rode on a wheel seat. Good god it's violent. The retrack has helped a bit but my physio will want to kill me.

Are you in Madrid now?

I believe @Poisson and @MattyH are current at park warner Madrid.

 

[Poisson]

Yes, currently in Madrid.

Not park related, but they have posted this on their Instagram story today in regards to Parque Warner Beach

It translates to “something's cooking at warner beach” So I guess there must be something new happening at their waterpark.

 

[MattyH]

Maybe it's new wheels for Superman and Batman they're cooking

 

[Poisson]

Superman had triangular wheels

 

[Rob]

The new Intamin coaster at Parque Warner has gone vertical!

 

[JAperson]

Ah ive been playing a game of intamin track roulette, this time they’ve used there high stress track.

 

[Benjsh]

My god this coaster is a long time coming. I did a semester at Uni in Madrid in 2005 and this is probably the only new addition of any interest since then.

Must admit this park has never been on my radar until now. The B&M's look good but dated and hardly unique.

Its fantastic to see parks on the continent upping their game and building modern airtime focused rides. Helix was thr possible catalyst and since then we've seen...

Taron
Taiga
Untamed
Wildfire
Kondaa
RTH
Hyperion
Zadra

And now there's this and the Parc Asterix equivalent.

Wonder when the UK will catch on? Blackpool had the right idea with Icon in fairness but it was poorly executed.

Wouldn’t Project Exodus signal the start of this in the UK?

 

[Connor98]

I think project exodus is far far away from the level of most of these major projects mentioned on the continent. Just another typical merlin project. However I have no doubt it would be a popular coaster with most the general pubic! Simply just due to its height.

It almost seems like merlin are afraid to build a top class coaster, as it will point out all the imperfections of other notable projects across their resorts

Forgot about that haha. I'm sure it will be a worthy contender, just a shame Merlin are too tight to make it longer.

 

[Benjsh]

The world's longest brake run is definitely going to be something special.

 

[John_P]

Really nice way it adds to the parks skyline

 

[Benzin]

Why is it wonky?

 

[MattyH]

Intamin.

 

[Benjsh]

This new coaster is going to be Batman themed apparently. Seems a bit of a bizarre choice given they already have a Batman B&M Clone.

 

[John_P]

The B+M has more of an Arkham Asylum theme nowadays than being specifically Batman.
