I want to move my bedroom on top of that hill so I can wake up to that layout every morning.

Oh Lord. For once, there might actually be a reason to maybe, possibly considering, briefly visiting China.

Because they are show offs, while U.S. parks are good, quality ones.

^^Great Coasters International

This very well could be the best woodie. It's definitely Boulder Dash/Toro/Voyage a run for their money here. Too bad its in China.

So who's up for a China and Japan trip?!?!

^Damn you Gump...

^^^ I was just wandering the same thing... ;)

It looks massive. Where in china is it? I might go to china to visit my uncle and cousins there in about 2 to 3 years. I could go and ride that if I am lucky enough with my cousins.

EDIT: 2 post before I posted. LOL!

What's wrong with China?

Why does china get all the good ones?


Because they are show offs, while U.S. parks are good, quality ones.


Actually, it's because China is undergoing a rapid westernization. Their economy is absolutely booming because we Americans constantly buy their products. Their population is booming as well, and even though their cities experience extremely rapid growth, they still have money left over to build crazy amusement parks.

This very well could be the best woodie. It's definitely Boulder Dash/Toro/Voyage a run for their money here. Too bad its in China.

So who's up for a China and Japan trip?!?!


That's a tough call to say. I would say wait for a POV, and even then, we won't find out until Mitch Hawker's poll in 2011.

And yes, let's go Kevin.

^ 2 words , Chinese food.

Wow, that's insane, but it's a very cost efficient way to build a woodie, since half the supports are only 20 ft tall.

Chinese have actually come a long way with regard to human rights. Their workers are paid better compared to 10-20 years ago.
