Hhappy Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 (edited) Looks like the new coaster season has started. Weather is finally getting better (as in coaster riding temperature range) Time to go out and ride some "new" things (for me) First stop was BillyBird Park update: POV of the coaster Look where i'm at today so yeah, in the summer time.. there are more people here hmm, is that a coaster I see?? and the other side work in progress (repairs/maintenance/update) looks like some sort of play structure giant waterfall on this side?? owh wait.. are those... yeah waterslides.. (but nobody is riding them at this time) looks like a ropes course thingy no movement yet on that side.. ehm.. yeah.. never in america water always helps to make things look more challenging could this be airtime? so what is in that big building there? aha, the coaster does not open for another 40 minutes looking back at the entrance building/office map just a little longer so let's check out this building.. wicked indoor play area (for the kids) pirate fun for... they even have one of these inflatable play structure no mats or other things needed to slide ?!?!?!? back outside.. BBQ is ready for better weather but there's more.. kidsland more inflatable stuff hmm Scandi.. bounce bounce bounce lots of green during the summer (I guess) more play things for the smaller kids slide fun so yeah.. coaster... testing has started lifthill for train (and not the passengers) wait what?? passengers don't get to ride the lifthill?? indeed, you climb the stairs get to ride and exit the train at the bottom.. original plan was to have solar energy and exercise machines so that you could create the energy needed to operate the coaster while waiting before riding it (green idea) but I have not seen any exercise machines yet... ok, time to move on people power time to check out the ride a helix never hurts it looks pretty kids.. are kids.. some scream.. and some appear to be terrified and yes, that first hill creates some sweet airtime (as my butt was up in the air opposed to on the seat) second drop fun happy together having fun the view from above (station/boarding) airtime sun reflection as long as my hair is... that's it. time to go to the next park...

johnnyknottsville Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 LOL capturing the terrified look on riders faces...Priceless. Yet after seeing that coaster riding on those tiny up stop wheels I might look just as terrified if I was on that thing Also it took me a minute to see what was actually holding you in the train before I could tell there was a seat belt I thought it was just hang on for dear life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfc Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 That coaster is one odd-looking, intriguing little ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKI Jizzman Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 I remember seeing pictures from this place! Of course, never in the USA. Very interesting, unique. Would be fun to visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coaster-mm Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Hi, Never heard of this park, although I only live about 30 miles from it (had to look it up). Great pictures Hanno! Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meteornotes Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 There are so many things there that if they were installed in a US park, lawyers would be dropping in by parachute to hand out lawsuits. dt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 I've always wanted to go to this little park. Seeing all the kids stuff will now mean we have to before KT gets too big so we can play too, looks awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philrad71 Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Is 'Happy Together' the name of the coaster and does it come complete with garbled on-ride audio of the famous Turtles song with the same name from the 60's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ernierocker Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Interesting and unique coaster that I had no clue existed! Did it give a decent ride? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hhappy Posted April 15, 2013 Author Share Posted April 15, 2013 Interesting and unique coaster that I had no clue existed! Did it give a decent ride? It had more airtime than I expected, but not having to go up a lift hill felt kind of weird... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jew Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 I've always wanted to go to this little park. Seeing all the kids stuff will now mean we have to before KT gets too big so we can play too, looks awesome! Since it is Europe and not the sue happy USA, I'm confident adults can find ways to injure themselves and have a blast on all those playgrounds too!

RoCo Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 What a cool, funky little park, and that is definitely one of the most unique coasters I've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intamax92 Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 I really need to check out this park, I live kinda close to it. Thanks for posting these photo's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gisco Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Didn't look too busy the day you were there. I can only imagine the mayhem of a TPR group invading the kiddie rides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPDave Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Wow, I've never heard of this place before and it looks fantastic. I assume adults can play on all the stuff there? If so I have to visit!!

jedimaster1227 Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 I'm glad to see that there are seatbelts on that ABC Rides coaster. Pretty interesting to see them design such a neat layout, even if you don't get to ride up the lift hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
