We're looking at the classic and doomed Vekoma SLC model on our new episode that releases next Friday.
Anyone out there still like original SLC rides? Anyone ever like them?? Bueller..??
This episode is fun, especially if you love hating on a coaster model a lot. Join us next week as we look at this much hated rider in a park we've never visited yet on this podcast.
See you soon, it's gonna be a fun one!

For all you Flying Dutchman lovers out there, this one's for you. (And I know you're out there, our episode on Firehawk is one of our most-listened to episodes ever)
Batwing at Six Flags America is a Vekoma Flying Dutchman model that opened in the park in 2001. A smaller coaster that reaches a top height of 115ft, it still includes 5 inversions including a vertical loop, 2 in-line twists, and a horseshoe.

The bigger question is who remembers when that space was kiddie land 😉
Remember that one day Vekoma woke up and decided to design a wild mouse coaster?
Jester was a Vekoma hurricane roller coaster that operated at @SixFlags NOLA from 2003 to 2005. Unfortunately Hurricane Katrina left her in disrepair, and Six Flags has left her to rot away in the former park.
As much as Vekoma rides aren't my favorite, I wish she could've been saved for another park. Barely two full years of operation.

Stealth was a Vekoma Flying Dutchman that operated at California's Great America from 2000 to 2003. The roller coaster cost $17 million USD to construct and reached a top speed of 51MPH.
Her life at the park was cut short when plans were announced to expand the water park. Luckily she found a second life at @Carowinds where she has been operating ever since as Nighthawk.

Things aren't looking great for Mind Eraser these days, so lets pour one out for this Vekoma SLC at @SixFlagsDC
Opened in May 1995, Mind Eraser is a smaller Vekoma SLC model that features a top speed of 50MPH and trains of 2 riders across. As of 2022 she has been removed from the park's website and maps and is currently listed as SBNO.

You can feel the headache just looking at this photo, right??
Zoomerang is a Vekoma boomerang coaster that has been operating at Lake Compounce since 1997. She reaches top speeds of 47MPH. That's a lot of head banging from a lot of guests!

Do you ever wake up and randomly miss Opryland USA? (we're a dying breed) Well Kong at @sixflagsDK is a leftover relic of Opryland, and a chance to ride a piece of history.
This #Vekoma sidewinder opened originally in 1995 as Hangman at Opryland USA. When the park closed in 1997 it was moved to Discovery Kingdom where it still operates today as #Kong

Balagos, fka Tornado is a Vekoma MK-1200 looper at Avonturenpark Hellendoorn in the Netherlands.
Open since 1990, the track was completely refurbished in 2020 including a new paint job, a new name, and new cars to replace the original Vekoma ones.

Take a tour of #Vekoma's headquarters in the Netherlands, manufacturer of four roller coasters for #DisneylandParis (Big Thunder Mountain, Casey Jr. – le Petit Train du Cirque, Space Mountain, Avengers Assemble: Flight Force). 🎢
In this Coaster Studios video, you'll see the assembly hall, rail pipe bending machines, and latest generation ride vehicles (1101, 711, STC). I found it very interesting. 🤓
#stealth at @CAGreatAmerica is the perfect example of "right coaster, wrong time."
Opened in 2000, this #Vekoma Flying Dutchman lasted only 4 seasons at the park before closing in September 2003 to make room for the new water park.
Luckily, she still rides today, 3000 miles away - you may know her now as Nighthawk at #Carowinds.
