Welcome To Screamscape!

2010 - Improvements and Changes - Rumor - (11/4/09) Screamscape sources tell us that the historic carousel at Heide-Park will be removed and sent to Freizeitpark Plohn this winter. Some kind of new “interactive water ride” is also expected to be on the way, though I’m not sure if this is a Splash Battle or something more. Meanwhile the Big Loop coaster is still expected to get either new or refurbished Vekoma trains this season that will feature the same new style restraint as used on the Carolina Cobra at Carowinds in 2009.
    (7/1/09) According to this site, Heide Park will update their Big Loop coaster (Vekoma) for the 2010 season to use the same new Vekoma’s style trains put to use for the first time on the Carolina Cobra at Carowinds this summer. As such, the next major new ride has been pushed back to 2011.

2011 - New Coaster - Rumor - (11/5/08) We’ve got a few more rumors making the rounds this week about Heide Park’s plans for 2010. According to a posting over at Onride.de, the park made a statement that they are working on something that will be unique to the German market.  Meanwhile they also report that a project manager from Stengle’s office mentioned not long ago that they were working on a top secret mega coaster project for a German park that would combine elements from a wide variety of coasters, mentioning Top Thrill Dragster, Incredible Hulk and Superman: Ultimate Flight as examples of coasters featuring elements to be gathered together into this mega project. Time will tell if this was in reference to the Heide Park project or something else.
