CoasterGallery.com adds Nagashima Spaland photos

I always thought this park was more of a one-trick pony. They have quite a few coasters and rides, and some of them look quite good.

"Well, I wouldn't say I've been MISSING it, Bob."

Well, I think that Ultra Twister, White Cyclone, and, of course, SD2K look good. But that Corkscrew will probably be like the rest of the worlds arrow corkscrews.

Hey
Very nice pictures.

The TOGO mine train is suppsoed to be extremely smooth. If anyones intrested thats the first ever Togo Heartline coaster too. The 2 Schwartzers there are in very good condition as well.

Holy shoot does SD2K look awesome. There is no doubt in my mind that it's better than MF (although I suppose I should be fair and ride it before judging). Mamba with a better turnaround, more height, more speed, more airtime ?!?!?! I really, really hope that Morgan builds a Giga in the US soon !

I'll put my trip report up ASAP. Is it better than MF? No, is MF better than SD2K? No. They are VERY different. Some people prefer one, some people the other. I actually (slightly) prefer 1 over the other, but that's just my preference, and it really shouldn't matter to anyone else

Joel when will you add Batwing photos.

The logo on the front of the train says Steel Dragon 2000. Why does it say Steel Dragon in the Nagashima Spaland information?

White Cyclone is one of the most beautiful coasters I've ever seen. Looks like an impressive park!

Nagashima looks awesome and so do the pictures. I would love to ride their Steel Dragon, and that other one, the White Cyclone, looks cool. A classic - looking wooden coaster, with world class thrills, I'm sure. If any company is going to build a giga coaster soon in the US, it needs to be over here in California, or at the Stratosphere hotel in Las Vegas (get my drift?). Otherwise, this would be something to rid ein the future.

Now Fujikyu-Highland is up!!  Great pics.  Steel Dragon now ranks as my #2 coaster that I want to ride.  First being LASER at Dorney.  White Cyclone look like it is taken care of very, very, very well.
