The same park is getting an Intamin Impulse similar to Wicked Twister (both spikes are twisted) going by RCDB.

 

A new intamin impulse? Nice to see someone buying one again was the last bought how many years ago? Over a decade maybe?

Steel Venom at Valleyfair was the last one so nearly fifteen years ago.

New record for tallest inversion?! It beats GateKeeper by almost 30 ft...

 

yes assuming the stats the park give are correct (Not always a given in China) the ride is 60m tall. Which is around 197ft.

Which easily takes Gatekeepers record for tallest wing coaster but also takes Flash's record for tallest inversion (52m/171ft)

 

Here's a few more shots from inside the park.

It was kind of wierd, seeing photos of the coaster, standing all lonesome, out in the open by itself.

Glad to see there are other things being built in the park, lol. Thanks for the new photos.

If only they made that bridge a diving keyhole element that would greatest wing coaster inversion imaginable.

 

It would be great to have a wing coaster built similar to Montu (with a focus more on near miss elements and theming, rather focusing on the soaring effect (see Wild Eagle and Gatekeeper). It seems the B&M inverted coasters that made that shift really got it right (e.g. Nemesis and Montu). I doubt the layout would extend that far.

Want to see something really quite strange? Intamin's new launched racing invert/sitdown coaster for Wanda Guangzhou in China has shown up at the Stakotra plant in Slovakia.

During the launch and first inversion the track shares a kind of double spine track before splitting off for 2 separate duelling layouts.

A big shout out to Mario M. at coasterfriends who dug this up.
