I think park opened a few weeks back, they constantly share people’s stories of the park on Instagram.

The park has a second opening/season change which is in March. When I went the water rides were closed until late March and this second opening thing

Recent testing footage shows they've put a very strong a trim brake on the top hat. Not to stop it overspeeding, but more like a holding brake to give hangtime over the edge of the drop.

Still looks good, obviously but I'd prefer a nice ejector top hat personally.

 

[Poisson]

Abyssus does the same and it's not good. I hope that's not the case here

 

[RicketyCricket]

As seen below.

It will be brilliant but maybe not as intense as initally expected.

From the video above that trim looks dismal.

From the video above that trim looks dismal.

It almost looks like it's intentionally done though to create a hang time style drop rather than your traditional trim that just takes all the speed out.

 

[Burbs]

The airtime hill immediately after the top hat looks pretty jarring though, so maybe it’s to help avoid over-speeding there? But I agree it does seem to render the top hat a bit pointless.

A POV has finally been released, liking the look of it bar the hold on the top hat. Looking forward to trying it in July though!

I like the smoke coming out of the first launch! It looks like a great layout as well.

That looks great and exactly what that park probably needs.

The shaping on the reverse sidewinder looks like something I knocked together in No Limits, quite strange.

What happens at the end ? Does the track switch and you roll slowly into the station ?

 

[Rob]

Apart from the long hold on the top hat it looks brilliant! Very unusual ending as well. Definitely need to get back to Madrid!

 

[Raza]

Wonder how long it will be before they make another big investment like this

 

[venny]

If previous record is anything to go by, another 21 years…

Apologies for clogging up this thread with trip planning questions, but does anyone know of any ticket discounts/deals? The website suggests that there are promo-codes available, and I don’t want to pay more than I have to!

 

[Poisson]

Booking in advance knocks a fair chunk off iirc
