Discover pure Energy!

 

Slowly, the train is moving through the darkness. Suddenly: deadlock.

Breathless attention, hearts are beating faster and faster! Launch – in 2.5 seconds from 0 to 100! At a height of almost 40 metres the train turns around – it´s pure adrenaline! A 32 metres high loop – oh my God, I´m upside down! A steep turn follows straight away, then a roll to the right, another steep turn and a roll to the left – no time to catch a breath! Now a hump through the loop and a full 360° heart-line roll… another steep turn… full braking. Wow – what a ride!

This is how all visitors, who are daring enough to ride the new catapult-coaster at Europa-Park, will feel from the season 2009 on. On a track of over 1,000 metres, one thrill-element follows after another. With this innovative coaster, Europa-Park is upside down for the first time since its opening in 1975 – and not only once but even four times! Not just the highest loop of a launch-coaster in Europe and three thrilling 360° rolls, but also a hump through the loop guarantee a fantastic new ride experience. And all that at a speed of up to 100 kilometres per hour!    

In the new coaster, which is planned and manufactured by Mack Rides in Waldkirch/Germany at the moment, up to 20 persons per train will be catapulted to a height of almost 40 metres. With the combination of dark ride, catapult launch and overhead-elements, Europa-Park offers its visitors a one-of-a-kind coaster experience.

With the new coaster, which will be opened at the beginning of the season 2009 next to the Scandinavian themed area, Europa-Park creates another thrilling offer for all fans of roller coasters.
