The month of May took us on an exhilarating journey through amusement expos across the globe! From the vibrant SEA Expo in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia to the dynamic AALARA Expo in Gold Coast, Australia, and culminating in the bustling IAAPA Asia expo in Bangkok, Thailand. Each event was a unique opportunity to connect with diverse parks and vendors, sharing our passion and products. The GCII team eagerly anticipates returning to these shows in the years ahead. Huge thanks to the dedicated staff, loyal customers, and new acquaintances for making each show unforgettable and wonderfully busy! 🎢✨ #AmusementExpos #SEAEXPO #AALARAEXPO #IAAPAASIA

Nieuw project: Troy van Attractiepark Toverland!

Ik zal er geen geheim van maken dat ik momenteel werk aan een nieuw project: het nauwkeurig in CAD tekenen van de Fenix treinen van Toverland. Mijn aanpak begint altijd met uitgebreid onderzoek om een grondige verzameling beeldmateriaal en informatie te verkrijgen over de achtbaantrein. Tijdens dit proces stuitte ik op een gedetailleerde tekening van een andere achtbaantrein, namelijk de Troy, compleet met kleurnummers voor de decoratie op de trein. Dit vond ik te waardevol om onbenut te laten, vooral gezien mijn eerdere ervaring met het tekenen van de treinen van Joris en de Draak in de Efteling. Deze treinen, die van Great Coasters International Inc. zijn en ook op de Troy rijden, dienden als uitgangspunt, waarbij ik enkele aanpassingen heb gemaakt om het Troy-model te realiseren. Ik wil graag Justin van der Ven bedanken voor zijn hulp bij het ontwikkelen van het patroon voor de bestickering van de karretjes.

🔥 Happy 6th Anniversary to Wicker Man! 🎉 We partnered with Great Coasters International Inc. on the design of this wooden roller coaster, which opened to the public at Alton Towers Resort on this day in 2018! Cheers to many more years of thrills! 🎢

Substantial progress continues to be made on the construction of the many different major roller coasters coming to Six Flags Qiddiya!

More and more of Falcon's Flight - the park's first of it's kind Intamin Exa Coaster continues to fly up with the ride's 600ft plus airtime hill continuing towards completion and lots of work also taking place on top of the surrounding cliffs.

On the site of Iron Rattler - the park's new gen Vekoma Rides tilt coaster most of the ride's lift hill structure and tilt structure is also now in place and the rest of the ride has also seen substantial progress with it's installation.

The park's Great Coasters International Inc. hybrid coaster Colossus is also flying up too with most of the lift hill & first drop now in place. The ride's airtime hill is also now in place too and will feature GCI's Infinity Flyer trains.

Lots of progress also appears to have been made on the park's waterpark and largest water slide too with most of the slide now appearing to have reached completion.

It's safe to say Six Flags Qiddiya is certainly shaping up to be one very impressive new park and with so many HUGE new roller coasters and rides to enjoy it's bound to have quite the pull once open later this year (as is predicted to be the case).
