Kool, looks very good, bit smaller than what id exspected but still very good. Im defornatly going to make a trip there next year to ride this beast, looks like its going to be an amazing coaster :D Also im loving the fact that the lift hills going to be different to most other inverters with it being housed inside that building :)

Looking very good, very good layout by the looks of things, nice to see a park do things different for once rather than follow every other park. Is that fly through resturaunt still happening that was rumoured :?: :D

well i think the 'fly-through' is going to be more like a 'pull-through' if you have a look at the lift / firstdrop. i can't imagine a fly-through anywhere else on this track.

This coaster is going to be spectacular. I really can't wait to see the finished product. It will definately be another one of those B&M stunners!

Great pictures, i loved the one from the road outside the park were you can see the loop just over the wall. If that dont tempt people into the park seeing it shoot over the loop as they are driving by i dont know what will :) You are so so lucky Diddi

On the way to my parents where i stayed over christmas, i drove on the highway which is beside the construction yard of black mamba (not the road you mentioned which is a 'normal' city road) and i could clearly see the loop through the trees. should be an amazing view when driving on the highway and suddenly a train dives through the loop :)

They are currently working on the Immelman. The exit is already done, but theres still room for a guess how the immelman will exactly be done.

It looks like we will NOT gonna have a normal, straight Immelman, but more an 'inclined' immelman. I think this will be done because there's simply not enough room for a normal one, as you can see here in the first two pictures.
A photoshopped picture of the completed Immelman can be seen here. Though it's believed that it will be a lot more underground and not nearly above the ground like it's in this picture!

I'm sure we will know what it's gonna look like by the end of next week. Same for the Zero-G-Roll. hopefully ;)

Wow, this looks like an amazing ride, maybe competing in the high stakes with our Nemmy. Never actually been to Phantasialand, but from what I've heard it's fantastically themed. I'll probably visit some time in the future, hopefully.

*Off topic*The smileys look bare! [/off topic]

Looking good :D Looks like its going to shoot over the wall in one of the pictures lol. If this is going to be as heaverly themed as Nemesis then they have still got quite a long way to go. Is it ment to be opening with the park on Opening day :?:

Alot more of the ride is actualy underground that what i exspected, if its not getting much higher than gound hight then i can see the speed of this coaster making it extremely intense. :)

I don't think that they will finish it for the opening day (which is the 1st of april i think), but i guess they will definitely open it before the football worldcup.

by the way, why was this thread moved to worldwide parks? :)
