News Project 2027/Cyber Cycle: Thrill Glider (Prototype Vekoma Inverted Straddle Coaster)
- Thread starter Viator
- Start date
I can tell already that this will be so much better than purple slop.
Should we expect an announcement soon for the date of the official announcement?
New permit for electrical:
SelfService Public Site
Addition of 400A, 480V, 3Ph., 3W distribution panel to serve Thrill Glider Coaster Station building with 225KVA step down transformer and 800 amp 120/208V, 3Ph., 4W distribution panel.

The track gauge looks so tiny compared to the spine. Anyone know if that's just an optical illusion or if it is actually a narrower gauge than other recent Vekoma inverted projects?
It's suspended track, so I wouldn't be surprised if its a larger spline.
Very curious to see if these trains are more or less accommodating than Tron's. That concept art makes it look like the calf area is a lot more open, but who knows how true to life that spacing really is.
Presumably Vekoma would do a combination train featuring Thrill Glider cars with a single standard inverted car if requested a la Tron's non-bike cars? Would love to see that accessibility feature implemented on these coasters.

the timing on that shot is INCREDIBLE

Seriously. Full Throttle seemed to be a little ahead of the correct timing, but otherwise that was awesome. I wonder how many takes it took for them to get it right?
I think this is about to be the sleeper hit of the new 2027 line up of coasters.
If it’s anything like fly they have a smash hit on their hands

AI composite of several takes? The possibility is much more likely than simply a perfectly timed shot.
No, because two things:
1. The seats will not freely swing like the Arrow Suspended Coasters.
2. The Arrow Suspended Coasters did not invert and this will have several inversions.
I'm thinking of this as halfway between the STC and the F.L.Y. model. Will these supersede the F.L.Y. model the same way RMC's I-Box superseded Topper?
