That Immelmann is a 100% a MACK Rides move, it looks the exact same as the one on
Hurricane Roller Coaster!
It also looks fully designed, showing Mack style track and supports. I think it’s fairly safe to say they’ve been through the whole design process with Mack, though have yet to proceed to the manufacturing stage.
But has anyone realised that this could be the first RMC t-rez
@@Steve-cl5tqThat was me, I’ve recently changed accounts but, yes, I was wrong 😂😂😂
Thanks for using my footage Taylor! It’s great to see how excited all of the US enthusiasts are for this ride! We’re definitely in for an exciting few years at Thorpe Park!
Yo Jack when are you next going to Thorpe
Looks like a trip to the UK is coming up in the next few years, eh? Love how creative the layouts are getting now-a-days. I understand the purpose of clones but seeing something this unique is so refreshing!
I don't think that's going to happen. Travel is only for the elites now
FYI: we still use feet and inches here in the UK, although we also use meters too, but for longer distances we tend to use feet or miles rather than meter or km, probably because we still use mph rather than kph for speeds. We basically still use imperial measurements but sometimes also use metric measurements, like for milk and beer it's pints but Coca-Cola and the like it's in litres (ml not cl though). We're weird like that. Anyway I need to plan a trip to Thorpe Park for the opening season of this ride, just so I can keep the claim of having rode both the tallest ride in the UK (currently the big one) and in Europe too (red force)
It’s normal daily life for us but when you put it on paper it makes us sound ridiculous 😂
I don't have my red force credit yet but hoping to got port aventure next year, but i can claim top 2 highest in UK lol
I'm all for the funkiness and this ride brings the funk
If they execute it right, then every element is gonna be absolute bonkers. It could be longer but from my experience short but intense rides do not feel short and this could be one of the most intense coasters out there. Definitely has the potential to be one of the best in Europe. And I so hope it will be Mack, they've been stepping up their game a lot in the recent years
The layout and general look gives me really big Steel Curtain vibes, so I could also see Thorpe Park reaching out to S&S for this project.
Thought the same, and Joe Draves does design work for S&S so it's no wonder why Taylor thinks it looks "RMC-like"
But with the story of Mack going to Turkey for sound tests on Hyper Coaster and the lift and loop sequence looks very much like Hyper Coaster at Land of Legends, plus the artist renderings look very Mack, so I'll go with Mack, final answer.
I’m eager to see this. It looks like Thorpe Park is turning around after years of doing things people hate.
Wait, what are you talking about? What did they do?
Invested in the wrong stuff
I mean this ride is short and kinda meh… not a top to ride
@@leophyte9663 Closing thrill rides to add dark mazes.
@@tw-ij3kc like slammer into dark mirror
YES YES YES FINALLY A NEW RIDE COMING TO THORPE PARK
I hope during the planning stage that they make the ride at least 20 seconds longer. It looks amazing and unique, yes. But to go that high only to make it so short just doesn’t make much sense to me personally!
Definitely what the U.K. needs though, congrats Thorpe Park for getting it right for the first time in a long time!💪🏼
I agree. I wish it could just do a low to the ground lap around the lake with some bunny hills or something else etc; just to get more bang for your buck.
@@billrunham9610 that would be great. Some low to the ground pure speed over some hills and twists and turns
In your guessing manufacturers, I’m surprised you didn’t mention S&S. Partial Steel Curtain vibes here.
Exactly what I thought when I saw it.
Exactly what I thought when I saw this, full steel curtain vibes !!!!!
Amen on this being Thorpe's signature ride! 👍 I've always thought this was something the park was missing. Cannot wait! Great video! 🙂
If the final ride is similar in layout to the renderings than UK Enthusiasts have a winner and one of the most unique hyper coasters ever built on their hands.
The ride may look short but I think the quality of the elements will more than make up for that and I really hope this is a MACK as it looks like their rides keep getting crazier and better.
Only two other Mack hypers you say? DC Rivals would like a word 😉. I too am very excited for this ride!
^^^^^^^^^
I think given that the concept art appears to show a full design, shows Mack style track, Mack style supports, I think it’s safe to say they’ve probably properly designed it with Mack, though have yet to proceed to the Manufacturing stage.
I think the majority of us here in the UK wanted a big B&M hyper coaster as we don’t have that air time machine and Thorpe was perfect for that, or an RMC...however this is certainly an interesting ride!
Why not S&S? That support structure and those elements look very much like something you'd see on Steel Curtain or Maxx Force.
Thats my thought, too. It looks very similar to Steel Curtain, and has similar elements and pacing.
Because S&S and Vekoma work close. Vekoma most likely would do S&S work.
@@aswisshuman637 they are both owned by the same company, Sansei Technologies.
As I am from the UK, we need an air time machine (we have none) so this is probably going to be better than anything we have; but I hope we get a RMC like Tamed.
I wouldn’t write this off as an B&M surf coaster just yet.
Britain finally getting the roller coasters they deserve
so hyped for this coaster to come to my local park!
Just one thing: that first element looks more like Zadras turnaround than an immelman in the photos, so I'd expect great airtime from it. So excited though!!
What the heck, I had an idea for a hyper roller coaster drop almost exactly like this year's back, and now it looks like someone else finally thought it up.
There's an even better, much more detailed POV of the new ride that's been shown in this video.
They put a wingover drop on a hyper. Yeah, this is going to be weird. Thorpe could probably could have used a little more airtime, but this definitely stands out against almost literally every other hyper in the world.
I definitely think it has to be something unique to have inversions. The park already has so many inversions, Stealth is their only non looping major coaster. It doesn't make tons of sense to get another one.
honestly so excited that this is coming to my home park bruh, great video man
I’m honestly surprised this would be the fourth Mack hyper, I really thought the model would take off after DC Rivals.
Also, the Trio of inversions: Immelmann+Cutback/Outerbanked Barrel+Dive(stall) loop reminds me of Cannibal Coaster in Utah!!
Should've gotten a B&M!
But honestly with their current lineup they could really benefit from a non inverting thrill coaster
I thought this Mack Hyper was supposed to be for airtime.
@@coasterhockygamingboy9549 they do have airtime on this rendering but also 3 inversions. And I don’t think they really need a non inverting thrill coaster as they have stealth, which is the most popular ride on park and they’re also a thrill targeting park anyway
@@ewantennant5847 it's not airtime-focused but there are some interesting spots of potential ejector airtime (mainly with laterals) : the first drop, the immelman plus half camel, outerbank into inversion, smaller outerbank and final camelback.
can we just adress how cool it looks when you think at the first drop you see what is coming at you... then it twists you 180°? looks so good!
I’m soooooo excited for this!! That drop and outer bank/barrel roll alone gives it top 10 potential in my eyes
I've never heard of Thorpe Park. This ride looks amazing!!!! I love coasters and would love to visit here. Coaster building is becoming so intense. Looks like Cedar Point is no longer the record holder for best in the world.
It really reminds me of a massive version of Lost Gravity. So it Mack would definitely be a logical guess as maker. It does feature alot of elements found on recent Intamin builds though, but then I imagine it would use their new track. That leads me to believe it's either Mack or Gerstlauer and I don't think Gerstlauer would build this.
4:54 DC Rivals HyperCoaster would like a word
Hey Taylor, I remember your Thorpe park review all those years back - do you think that this is that stand out coaster Thorpe needs? Very exciting stuff regardless!
Edit - just seen the end of your video and it seems to be just that. Great analysis and much love from the UK!
this will be a phenomenal addition to Thorpe Park! They lacked that 'one' ride that stands out above the rest, and this will be it!
@@CoasterStudios For sure! Again, thanks for the great analysis!
Thorpe Park have announced it will be a MACK hyper coaster!! Soo excited 😊
So glad I live 15mins away from thrope, can't wait to ride this when it's open
I live around 30 mins from
I honestly doubt it'll be RMC. The single rail models seem to be very loud, and the "RMC elements" have been utilized by so many manufacturers lately, particularly Intamin and Vekoma.
thats fair!
So glad you made a video on this!😁 I live in the UK and have got to ridden a lot of coasters including the big one and I'm so excited about this, looks world class defo will be the best in UK. Hope to see you down here when this beast opens!
I'm sensing Vacoma or RMC for this beauty!! Can't wait to see it!
New vid on my birthday! Thanks Taylor!
It’s my local park and I’m so excited
Same
This gives me S&S Steel Curtain & Gertslauer Infinity vibes!!
2:08 now there will be two roller coasters on top of a burger king!
Off subject, but Indiana Beach will have SEVEN roller coasters on 10 acres next year. That's insane for the size, isn't it???
I really hope this is well themed also i'm so glad that they have built it in this area it just seems like a dead bit of the park.
i cant wait, those elements are going to be insane
no one even brings up S&S which I don't get as I see more Steel Curtain in that design than anything from any other manufacturer, my vote goes to S&S or Vekoma
Reckon it will be a 2024 opening as Chessington's coaster opens in 2023 (owned by Merlin like Thorpe)
i'm so happy it's approved now
Looks awesome. This pics from a distance. They remind me of steel curtain. Both seem really compact.
Since Vekoma and S&S somewhat merged, if it's built does it count as both? Cause I get steel curtain vibes, but I can also see if working with vekoma in a joint project perhaps improving upon that model in the future far as operations/functionality/etc. The one picture without the track definitely makes me think of both of them, though if they went with Mack they'd get the most reliable version at the very least, maybe even set a car backwards or something possibly. I feel like it won't be intamin to save on expense right now, but then again that would depend on the actual time-table-more years=more money to spend.
Just the outward banked turn from the station alone gives me Mack/Gerstlauer vibes.
its rocky express not bucky express lol
Totally stoked about this coaster. BTW, thank you for being the first enthusiast I've heard even mention the possibility of it being Vekoma. This would definitely be up there alley.
I honestly can't see this being an RMC as it would have to be first raptor track to handle the volume of riders at Thorpe Park and I don't see them taking that risk to be the first to put in an experimental coaster.
I love the unique elements. 👏
"Hey, everyone likes all the RMC elements. Lets do that too"
Cool
Only recently got its plans permitted but it's being bult and I believe construction is starting
This looks insane!
I cant wait for this coaster Thorpe is my home park and I can’t wait to ride
That "testing noise at a similar ride in Turkey" at consultations thing makes it pretty conclusively mack at this point in time
It does look great but it feels like it ends so suddenly just as it's getting going which is a real pity.
It's a good looking ride, a bit short but as long as it brings the airtime I can overlook that. Definitely thinking Mack at the moment, although Merlin haven't worked with them for a very long time. Either way, I'll be there opening week!
As a uk enthusiast I am excited
I'm so hyped for this the layout looks insane well expect the length i think its the shortest traditional hyper coaster in the world if you can call it that in the fan made povs its 30-35 seconds whereas most other hypers are 45+ some being over a minute
You should totally make a trip out to the Uk just for this
People don't mention this enough; I think they will do something special with the trains.
I'm kinda guessing it's gonna be a Mack, because they could offer the big dipper trains or an extreme spinning/hybrid train.
The render pictures really show a fat track base and they never show a train. This raises my suspicion.
There are 3 mack hypers u forgot DC Rivals
it looks a lot like steel curtain
Now that it's basically confirmed as mack with the plans having mack trains featured I hope we are going to get a spinning train on the back car like we got on icon at Blackpool
Thorpe have confirmed that it's a Mack now.
I'd say the manufacturer will either be Mack, Intamin, Vekoma or S&S; but Mack definitely seems like the most likely. Either way, and I know this is probably not gonna happen, I think it would be awesome if it had 4-across seating like Hyperion or Lost Gravity. Just imagine that first drop in one of the end seats in the back. Legendary.
Awwww yissss. Ask, and ye shall recieve!
they should make a ride that kinda looks like the logo and has the same colour scheme and maybe go around the park
I live about 30 mins away, and I am ecstatic about this
Edit:
Some info about Thorpe Park: the old town section is a little while away from the front entrance (and only entrance) and all the kiddy rides and other things there are very much hated. No surprise here that they are removing them in favour of a thrill ride. However a few years ago they closed loggers leap, which was quite a fun ride and a classic to the park, and started removing small parts over time (e.g. the lift hill). It was very sad, but definitely expected as it was really old. Honestly, this park seriously needs airtime so I'm glad this is finally happening
4:55 little correction: there's also DC Rivals in Australia, though it has the same layout as one of the other two (I think the one in China? Not sure)
Flash and Hyper Coaster are clones, but DC Rivals has a different layout.
@@ElectriKong- oh ok, I knew two of them were clones, I just didn't know which ones specifically
I do think S&S here. Looks like Steel curtain's cousin !
This would be an interesting ride to see in the UK. 🤔
Taylor you should do a raging Bull review after riding it again and liking it!
Maybe S&S
I could see this either being an rmc T-Rex (it may be ready by 23/24 along with also the raptors having too low a capacity) or a mack hyper... which if it is then opens the door for towers to get an extreme spinner to counter icon (think something like time traveller)
lookin like the coasters we see on nl2 yt lol
I have 4 predictions on what it is
Believable- Mack or intimin hyper
Wild card- rmc t rex
Bold prediction- axis coaster
Surprised you didn't mention S&S; I get Steel Curtain vibes from the concept images. My money is on Mack personally, though.
My initial thought was S&S like Steel Curtain
2 years ago and now look hyperia is here
The manufacturer could also be Gerstlauer!
Is a Mack Hyper. Thorpe Confirmed it!
The style of the layout and elements is intamin but who knows. Maybe because Mack rides has never done something like that.. the only coaster that has some different elements is Lost Gravity
Another manufacturer that could do this would be Gerslaurer, but I do doubt that at the same time
How about a MACK extreme spinning coaster? Obviously with the lift hill instead of the LSM’s how crazy would that be?
I wouldn't rule-out S&S as a possible designer/manufacturer. Some of those renderings look a lot like "Steel Curtain".
I’m pretty sure Blackpool will find a way to drain the sea 2ft In order to reclaim the record
Exodus is 236 feet and is like 25 feet above sea level making 261 feet. So jokes on Blackpool lmao
Bold prediction: what this is the very first time RMC T-Rex model?
This going to age badly but I tried.
This looks like an s&s to me, very steel-curtain-esque
Some bits of track look a bit like The Smiler to me - any chance it's going to be a Gerstlauer?
It’s a Mack
I just noticed when you go back to Europe this summer, you will get to see this right?
Depends on whether or not he does the UK. I don't think it was in the original plans for the 2020 Europe trip and I don't think anything has really been added here since that would change that.
The first summer that it'll be operating will probably be 2024, so no.
Yo that poster for project Xodus is spelt X:\O-DUS... it's the same font as X:\No way out. Spiritual successor???
to me, it kinda looks like a shorter version of steel curtain, so maybe S&S could be one of the possible manufacturers
May this finally be the T-Rex from RMC? If not, my bet goes for the standard Raptor track
It would have a chance to be if it wasn't so hard to build roller coasters in the UK as it is
gravity group is obviously the manufacturer building this.
