Skara Sommarland in Sweden has a very unique coaster opening in its park June of 2009. The new coaster called "Tranan" is a new design by S&am... Click here to read more...

looks like an updated version of a suspened coaster, I think it has real potential

Yeah the video on S&S's website was really neat looking. Should be a lot of fun. I can't wait to see one in the US.

It's like an erector set gone so wrong, or maybe right.

Well, if you read TPR regularly, you would have known about this in February.

I'm sorry Tanks, I just received the press release from S&S yesterday and posted what I was told. Not all of us read Theme Park Review, nor do all of us post there. That is why we post press releases when we get them.

Looks fun. Matterhorn Bobsleds gone wild.

I actually posted about this coaster in my 'most anticipated of '09' thread late last year.

So it's been open for over a month, and now it's news?

Wow, we really must be a few months behind Europe

Tanks4me05: I don't read TPR regularly.

Yeah, it's old, but considering that S&S emailed us at 1:15pm (12:15pm my time) yesterday with a news release dated back in June, what are you going to do? If you have a problem with the timing of the news on here, why don't you help submit it when it's relevant and quit groaning.

We tell you how to submit it here...

If you can't do that... then you're just lazy.

Everytime I ride a coaster, it valleys. I've never been on a stalled coaster or had one roll back (except Wicked Twister and what was Superman: Ultimate Escape, which does that by design).

This looks like an Arrow suspended mixed with a 4th dimension. It's cool concept that needs to find its way to the U.S.

Steven, speaking of not groaning...

You were saying?

I don't groan... I get pissed.

Wow, if the prototype is that thrilling, imagine the kind of ride a full-fledged coaster of this kind would deliver!

It's time to play some DEFENSE!

I was looking at the pictures of Tranan on RCDb and it looks interesting and like it could be a lot of fun. Seems like it could be stressful on the track though so I'm sure it's obviously reinforced well. I couldn't tell from the pictures though as to what type of restraints it uses. I'd guess some sort of lapbar but I couldn't make anything out.
