Jump Land getting there Fifth

Coaster!


Country, MD; It has been confirmed

that Jump Land has ordered a new roller coaster. At this point they are not

releasing the type of ride but they have told us they have ordered a Jumps

Coasters
coaster.Jumps Coasters is responsible for creating

Typhoon, The first floorless coaster; Vertical Zing, the tallest

rocket;Two-Timer; and upcoming Ricochet.
At this

point in time we can only speculate what this new coaster is. Some roller coaster sites

are leaning toward a launched floorless and others and others say a shuttle, and then

there’s just a lot of other ideas what this could be. Right now we can only speculate

and wait to see what the out come is.

When will the name of the coaster be released or the

type? I can't wait to see what it will be. But Ricochet being the first launched

bowl seems like your just making up a record just to have it.

<_< When will

more details on this coaster be released?

I can't say I've ever heard of a launched

bowl coaster. Is this a real type or one you are creating? There's not a type like

that listed in RCDB's glossary

That's cool, I wasn't doubting, I was just

wondering what it was. So, what is a launched bowl? Is it shaped like a bowl and goes

back and forth. I'm confused.

i belive a launched bowl is like a launched coaster that

has a layout that is all balled up and compacet like jokers jinx or flight of fear

Oh, cool. So what makes it really different from a

regular compact, or is this just a weird name one of the companies calls it?

Sounds like a real challenge by making a real compact

coaster. I like the way you are presenting your model. Sounds cool and good

luck! ^_^

elements will be included?
