Well... that video states that the ride was in PERTH... So who knows who brought it. I know Goldenway was looking at buying a Experience before settling on Halloween. I had also heard rumors of someone wanting to buy a KMG Experience for a while in Australia, but I am suprised we didn't hear more about it coming.

Seems as though this unit has come from the UK however. I have tried googling it to find information on the sale and it's proving hard...

There is a Perth in the UK. And there are rides in the background that aren't in Australia. I then found on one of those fototopic websites photos from Perth with those same rides in the UK. But then I'm confused because the operator then says "it's Australia's newest and fastest thrill ride" and I can't find any info on any UK forums saying it's been sold. Dunno, bit confused...

Wow I look forward to seeing that new ride! As I cannot read the map, I'm unsure whether it'll be located in the Coca-cola Carnival or on Olympic Boulevard among the kids rides.

Yeah, it's very confusing to be honest... That and I am still suprised that if it IS in Australia, that this is the first we have heard of it... Very sneaky if that has happened...

It says the owner of the video lives in Australia. Im was hoping it might show up at RES? I've always wanted to ride one of these. And hopefully this new coaster is more exciting than the python loop or whatever its called.

I did speak to somebody about 6 months ago who was implying that they had bought a new ride, unlike anything anything currently around but you never know if they're genuine or just having some fun with you :wink:

The operator sounds like one of the guys from Goldenway. Trivial I know, but the phrases and his voice sounds similar to the way scorpion was operated and xxxl..
Just a random thought! hehe :)

Keep your eyes on the Easter Show's Facebook page as there is some mention of ride testers for Xtreme Club members! All will be revealed around March 22 apparently.

Thanks for that Limit, wasn't too sure on the arrival date.

Today Crazy Coaster, Taipan and Pirate's Revenge moved into the showgrounds. I'm guessing also Skymaster and maybe Sky View did aswell. The rest of the rides and equipment will start bumping in on Sunday/Monday

Hey guys,

Asked this before but no one replied. What is the manufacturer of the new Looping coaster and does anyone have any pics of vids that they can share or point me in the right direction??

Cheers
Jobius
