Testing video with the splashdown now running.
On social media Antoine already found this video but I post it here. The coaster has better positioned lift hill legs than Diamondback. I realized Diamondback had to stand over several parks stores, buildings.
The coaster officially confirms the art of creating a good second half balanced with first half after the MCBR is gone. It's just about blocks on the coaster now. B&M started to lose it being balanced in the second half with Behemoth, then Intimidator. Now here. Diamondback is the exception with still having a reasonable second half after MCBR. This conclusion for a coaster after the brakes is still better than The Swarm.
That little hill after the big turnaround reminds me of Levi.
This coaster with Dragon Khan might take the hyper/looper intersection combo award away from Goliath and Scorcher down in Georgia.

Now the official PortAventura website is reporting that Shambhala will open on 12 May at 3 pm local (9 am EST). Wonder why it is opening so late in the day.
