EC! Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 If that's the one in Lagoon in Utah then thats actually an in house project by the park called Cannibal Altitude 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benin Posted November 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Gotta hand it to those Mormons, but why is it in the Hansa Park topic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altitude Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Gotta hand it to those Mormons, but why is it in the Hansa Park topic? Little misunderstanding on toofpikk's part, nothing to get upset about haha... They do look very similar though so it's an easy mistake. I think the one at Hansa will have an enclosed drop, and that weird double-heart thing afterwards! Oh and I'm not sure if it's been posted yet, but (what I assume are) the evacuation stairs have been installed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mah boi Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Stair enthusiasts rejoice! Looking at that picture above, it does make me wonder, will the lift hill be attached to the inside of the structure's wall, or will it be placed in the centre? Whatever happens, it will be strange yet interesting to look at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pognoi Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Little misunderstanding on toofpikk's part, nothing to get upset about haha... Uh I didn't think it was the same building, but thanks for backing me up. I was just a nonce and posted that here because I thought it looked similar to hansa's, and with the whole thing going on about 'ew concrete tower gross no theming ew' I thought I'd back it up with that, because if lots of parks are doing it (as we have already gathered) then it clearly can't be bad.

Oh ok, misunderstanding on my part too! I think it'll be interesting how the two compare in terms of smoothness and generally enjoyment, given how similar they both are!

Benin Posted November 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 Hansa will eventually theme their giant concrete tower though... No idea if Lagoon will, one would hope so, but Hansa definitely will, even if it's in 2016 since they've done it before with Fluch...

OldFarmerDean Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 don't want to sound stupid... but so that's a vertical lift hill, and not some sort of 13, tower of terror style element to the ride which doubled up as the lift hill!?

Benin Posted December 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 Yep vertical lift, same design as Smiler's one but 200ft and could potentially have things happening on the way up (Fluch has some random animatronic talk to you on it's vertical lift hill)...

pognoi Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 I have a weird/special request to anyone & everyone who has visited Hansa recently. I was recently tasked in college to re brand Hansa park. I have to redesign their logo, mascot, possibly park map and make advertisements and banners showcasing their rides and attractions. For this I need pictures, personal one, however I will in no way be able to visit Hansa Park before the 9th of January. If anyone is willing to share pictures of rides, but also parts of advertisement around the park, I'd really appreciate it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EC! Posted January 6, 2015 Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 Some official pictures from the Karnan website! http://www.xn--krnan-gra.de/en/building-blog/images/ Also The park have confirmed that this will have a top speed of 127kph (78.9mph) SO stats we know so far! Height: 239.5ft (73m) Drop: 219.8ft (67m) Speed: 78.9mph (127kph) Length: 4,058.8ft (1235m) Inversions: 1 Seems like an amazing project!!

Benin Posted January 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2015 At least everyone has an extra year to save, since it's only gonna worth doing in 2016 when it's fully finished... Also means going to Hamburg <3 pognoi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshC. Posted January 7, 2015 Report Share Posted January 7, 2015 Totally agree with Benin about waiting till 2016. Whilst I'm sure this ride will still be good minus the full story and theming, I think waiting an extra year would be MUCH better, to get the full ride experience.

Luke_A Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 Nice... Source: http://www.parkerlebnis.de/kaernan-erste-schienen-turm-hansa-park_9192.html There will be some nice speed here. Considering that twisted track, makes me wonder if this will feature something similar to the drops on Intamin strata coasters. Whatever it is it'll be pretty amazing.

Benin Posted January 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 Hansa love their twisty vertical drops... 2016 is so far away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastercameron98 Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 Thanks to some image posting help from JoshC. Here is a photo of the main drop: Source: TPR Looks amazing!
