Innovative amusement ride for the Walibi attraction park in Belgium
At the beginning of June, Input Projektentwicklungs GmbH, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Doppelmayr/Garaventa Group, put the world’s first Mountain Glider in the Walibi attraction park near Brussels, Belgium into operation. This pioneering innovation by Doppelmayr is a novel adventure ride which can be erected on the mountain and in amusement parks alike. The contracting parties agreed not to disclose the order volume.

Is that run by a cable the whole way or is it simply a roller coaster. Either way I like it.

what isn't mentioned was that it took an extra year to get the ride open. The actual construction and installation was completed in time for it to be open last year but the rfid transmitter/receiver on each carriage had problems and they were having massive blocking violations. Each carriage has the ability to stop on its own in the event of a stall of another vehicle. Something tells me unless they can increase the pph, they won't be selling that many in the future and this might be a one of a kind installation
