I've been on the park today and can confirm there has been testing. I also saw a huge amount of scaffolding work around ritas station. The entrance to the dark forest is looking awesome! From what I've seen today I think this will be on another level.

Sur la 4eme photo on voit clairement que les nouvelles couleurs de RITAJayzz a dit:C' est au programme ? Je me posais justement la question de savoir si le coaster sera repeint
En tous cas impatient de voir une vidéo des tests, et d' y être

I couldn't see any changes to Rita's track. I hope they paint the Rita maintainence shed a darker colour though...!
Th13teen was taking the 1st Airtime Hill at a great speed today, certainly gets a lot of momentum on the drop. The ride was testing repeatedly today and making it round. I really hope the shipping container effect is indeed lost - I have faith it will be, as it's really not very JW!
AH OUI !! et bien tu m'as appris quelque chosePmLondon a dit:Je comprends ton erreur mais le track de Rita n'est pas repeint, ce que tu vois la est d'origine pour se confondre avec la végétation.
gaga_lefou a dit:Vous croyez qu'ils vont foutre de la brume un peu partout dans la Dark Forest ?? Ca serait vachement immersif comme sur le concept art.
Par contre, je ne comprend pas pourquoi on a encore aucune video montrant les tests du parcours, et pas seulement la fin ...

He mentioned that what he helped design wasn't the worlds first feature.
Make of that what you will.

A really exciting new ride at one of the UK parks. I've been commissioned to help design a particular drop feature. The longer the drop the more expensive it is to construct, so I'm researching the shortest distance the drop could be to create the ultimate feeling of fear

I'll post the video when it's all done editing in a few weeks. He couldn't talk too indepth about the new developments at Alton Towers on camera for obvious reasons. It was very interesting though!
