Plenty of track arriving at Moscow's Dream Island, Including track for the Intamin vertical launched coaster at the rear.

The relocated Lightning from Kuwait Entertainment City is now testing at Wonderla Chennai in India. Weird seeing a batman clone in superman colours


Work on the new swing launch motorbike coaster at Happy Valley Shenzhen is well underway and it is looking very swoopy. This ride replaces the original Vekoma SLC Shenlin (Kumali) model which opened in 2002 and closed in 2022.

Love it when a coaster goes almost completely under the radar. And yet again it's in Vietnam where a Vekoma Switchback coaster called Warrior Challenge has opened at Vinwonders Vũ Yên. The ride is a clone of Jungle Rush at Dreamworld in Australia (sans the themeing obviously)

Track for their new Chinese built looping coaster has arrived at Lunapark Volgograd. At 34m tall it appears to be a standard Zhipao built loopscrew model.

Suôí Tiên Park in Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam has introduced some interesting new replacement trains to High Speed Rollercoaster. Amusingly the park still claims the ride reaches 200km/h

A very rare pic here, This is the only decent photo of the Ultra Twister at Tokyo Dome I've ever come across. The 2nd Ultra Twister constructed it opened in 1986, It replaced an Arrow Launched Loop. Closing in 1997 it was replaced by Linear Gale, The first Impulse coaster.

Interesting little junior coaster going to the latest Fantawild Boonie Bears park in Qingdao, Looks like it will be opening right next door to the existing Fantawild Dream Kingdom Park. - rcdb.com/10439.htm

The new Fantawild in Ziyang has a very interesting custom inverted coaster under construction from Jinma. The park is also home to a custom junior boomerang also from Jinma.

It appears Chimelong Paradise will add 2 new coasters, a decent looking Jinma Swing Launch Coaster and a Jinma Power Splash with beyond vertical spikes. Unfortunately this expansion seems like it will also see the removal of the B&M dive coaster that opened in 2008.

Construction of the new Zamperla Twister Coaster is underway at Kaleidoscope Park in Belgorod, Russia. The ride is a clone of 2023's Wild Mouse at Cedar Point.

Beijing Shijingshan Amusement Park has long been the mark of quality 😉 But this is probably not how you're supposed to build your new coaster. Ignoring the issues on site, for anyone that knows their previous rides, this looks like a fairly big step up in ride design for MCC

Here's something a bit different, an appeal for info on a ride. I have a character limit so the full story can be found on VH's FB page here. shorturl.at/4Uqah In short this is a Japanese ride that launched off a ski jump and was caught by ropes attached to the car

The Pax 4D coaster at Balalyk Park in Kyrgyzstan is now testing. Of all the things on my coaster bingo card for 2025, Pax reappearing and building a 4D coaster was not one of them. Source: youtu.be/Qz3I6LKtp84?si…


Footage of the new indoor Jinma Super Spinning testing at Chocolate Kingdom in Qingyan, China. There's a fair few of these out there now but think this is the first one to be built indoors. It appears to have replaced the parks previous crazy skateboard spinning coaster.


Never let it be said the Chinese are ones to miss an opportunity to pointlessly speed up a video. Here's a video of "Speed & Energy" the new Zamperla 375m Thunderbolt model testing at China Hiin City in Xiangshan.
