New Zamperla Coaster Prototype Photos & Video

Postby robbalvey » Tue Jun 06, 2006 5:37 pm

Hey everyone,

Our friends over at Zamperla have sent us some cool photos of a new coaster they are working on: the "MotoCoaster."

The coaster has a 0-40MPH launch and about 1200ft of track. The seats were inspired by the patented design used on the Disk-O rides.

The video below only shows the 8 seater train but the photos show off the finished traiin.

Have a look at the cool stuff below!

The whole concept looks cool, like a Jr. Booster Bike, more compact and twisty. I hope we see a few of these, maybe even in the US!

Looks awesome! The restraints look like you can sit more "up" but it might just be the angle of the shot. Very compact, it would be cool to see some here.

Now it doesn't seem so much of a Booster Bike ripoff. Booster Bikes typically have a long extended layout. This has a nice compact layout that could provide for headchoppers and give a small, obscure park a big ride.
-My butt has touched 112 roller coasters, how unfortunate.

I really like it! I hope they come up with a few bigger designs, as this looks really awesome, but I'd love to see this show up at a fair near me!

Very cool. I acually liked the Disk-O seats when I rode the one at Mt. Olympus. I hope they make a larger, longer, park model. That would be sweet. :-D
