Signature
Coaster: Intamin Power Launched Mega Coaster
I want at least one power launched coaster as a signature coaster. One
thing to watch is with Rita, Stealth and Space Mountain already
established a lot of options have already been used. Luckily Intamin,
one of the best companies for launched coasters has also done a lot of
good out and back steel coasters such as Goliath at Walibi, Holland and
Expedition G-Force at Holiday Park. That would make an out and back
steel coaster, ideally a mega coaster over 200 foot tall, with a
launched start would be a great choice.
Major Ride: Major
Interactive Dark Ride
This part of the park is probably the part that's the most blatant copy
of an area from another park. Europa Park has a Greek area with a big
water coaster with an Interactive Dark Ride under it. Given Macks did an
excellent job of designing and theming Europa Park they would be my
first choice for a company to theme and design this park.
For this ride I'd want a large scale interactive dark ride, with good
theming and targets linked to models to make them move. I'd also want to
include some hidden targets (hidden behind doors and in boxes) and have
two colours of target, with one being a lot rarer, but scoring bonus
points.
Major Water Ride:
Mack Splash Boat
This would have a similar layout to Poseidon at Europa Park, as it ranks
as one of my all time favourite family coasters and water rides. The
fact it's a water coaster is useful as it ensures there are two good
coasters in this area to go with the major dark ride.
Major Support Ride:
Huss Delirium
This is another ride I haven't tried, but looks like a very good thrill
ride with a large capacity. I also think it's a good fit for the area as
it incorporates fountains in the design, so would go well with the large
lake for the Mack water coaster.
Major Support Ride: Intamin Spinning Star
In terms of ride hierarchy this is a support ride, but it's located in
such a way that it's the main ride for one section of this area. I think
this is probably a good thing, as there are a lot of crowd drawing rides
around the lake, so something is needed to spread out the crowds a
little.
Support Rides:
I've included two support rides around the lake to support the major
attractions there. One is a Zierer Inverted Flying Carpet. A good family
thrill ride, plus the use of the fountains on this ride would compliment
the theming of the Delirium. The other is a Zamperla Mega Disco.
Walk Through
Attraction: Garden of the Gods
The Whole area above the lake would be this area, that includes the
Spinning Star, kids coaster and family rides. I'd also have some statues
and murals based around Ancient Greek myths and legends.
Kids Attractions:
The kids rides in this area consist of a Zierer small Tivoli coaster, a
Carousel, an Intamin drunken barrels, an Intamin children's parachute
tower, a Zamperla barnstormer and a Zamperla aeromax. These rides mainly
concentrate on the older end of the kids market. I think this should
compliment the nearby kids area in the Pirate area, which should be
aimed more at younger kids. |
