Hurray! We can blow 5 candles. This is a special birthday so we had to do something special. We took our wallet and decided to give our self a beautiful present. Five presents to be honest.
The biggest one first. From now on, you can do loopings at the Blaarmeersen! Not once, not twice, but three times! Meet the Whyday, named after a famous pirate ship, it's located in the pirate zone.
Walibi and Bobbejaanland already had a coaster with inversions, so we couldn't be left behind. Also the Efteling opened an inversion roller coaster this year, with a corkscrew more but we are confident our Whydah eats the Python like a fat guy eats fries.
Wardley wouldn't be Wardley if he didn't put in a special twist. That is the interlocking loopings! The coaster is 30 meter high and is the second part of our Arrow deal. It was rather expensive but we could have it.
There is of course more than just roller coasters. So we added a rounded up ride in the pirate zone and named it Captain Jack.
The third present is a panoramic tower between the western and pirate zone. Near the lake, it's pretty central in the park so you have a great overview on our park. And the skyline of Ghent too of course.
Okay, there is more than roller coasters but roller coasters are life, are love! So our fourth present is a roller coaster as well! We noticed the wooden wild mouse is a bit wild and too extreme for the smallest children so we felt the need for a little coaster for them. Therefore we bought a wacky worm coaster, gave it a clown theme and named it The Crazy Clown. Your kids will love it!
Fifth and last present is an oldtimer ride. It is placed right behind the first aid post at the entrance and we decided to create a charming square with fountain in the middle there.
I'm not entirely sure if you did that on purpose but that layout is super lame...
I think that's harsh. Good layout in my opinion that is true to the manufacturers typical designs. I gave you further feedback via PM already earlier.
Arrow usually did double corkscrews at that time, didn't they? I only see one.
Looks familiar.
I'm also not feeling the layout.. Essentially it goes out then snakes back with 180 turns. I'd consider trying to use diagonals to break it up. But if you don't want to change the footprint too much, at the very least you need to do something about that flat 180 turn after the 2nd loop.
I thought the same thing. lol
