More international news today. What a gorgeous inverted coaster in Italy. You might not be able to read the German subtitles, but the photos speak a thousand words!

Yes Katun is in Italy, However a German Coaster Club went there and rode it. I know German, the captions translate, to what the picture oliviously looks like. The name at the top of the page is the name of the German Coaster Club (I'm pretty sure)

Hi
My name is Tim and I put the Katun pictures into the net. The german coaster Club is the "Freundeskreis Freizeitparks" which means friends of themeparks.
Katun is an italien coaster but the owner of Mirabilandia is Gottlieb Löffelhardt, who also owns the german Phantasialand. So we knew him for a longer time and so he invited us to test Katun.
And I can tell you Katun is damned good, because it has a lot of airtime sections und a fantastic theming. I think that Katun is not as good as Montu but it is better than a lot of other B&M Inverter.
Greetings from Germany
Tim

I do have one question out of curiostity. What does Katun mean or what is it? It looks like a good B&M inverted coaster.
