I had no idea that there were Impulse coasters outside of the U.S. (and the original in Japan).

Check it out.

I love the colors and setting for that one though - that park looks very picturesque - anyone ever been there? PT300? Wish I could say that one's on my track record ...

I wasn't referring to the Japanese one, I was referring to the one I linked to.

The only one with a straight front tower and triangle track. Seems like it was conceived for the space constraints. (This is re: linear gale)

It replaced an Ultra Twister, which must have been a tough space to fill. All in all, I'd say Intamin did a good job.

I was not aware of Screaming Condor until a couple days ago when I stumbled upon it looking at pictures of coasters. It looks the nicest out of all of the impulses in my opinion, but it doesn't have the holding brake.

I've never been to Taiwan, but I believe that someone who belongs to Coasterbuzz has. Looks like they have some nice rides over there, huh?

I'm sure many buzzers have been to Taiwan. In fact, I have and rode my first coaster (an arrow looper called Dragon at Ocean Park) there.
