Flamingoland Kumali Pictures(14/5/06)

For 2006,Something big was coming to Flamingoland

We all knew it was going to be an SLC,but it was good to learn it would be a custom design, Well another exact design like this exists in China, but this is only the second design like this to be built of an SLC

This would be the biggest Ride that Flamingoland has put in to date, and WOW does it stand out in the park

Anyway I now offically present to you

KUMALI which is named in honour of the park's Alpha male Lion which is housed there

Lets go all through Kumali in closer detail, Here's a view of the station, It has african style pillars in the station for a bit of added themeing

The Trains climbs the incredibly slow lift hill

The Lift Hill does seem to go slower than normal SLC's or any other coaster for that matter, so not sure why it like this

The Train approaches the top of the lift hill ready to take on

This awesome looking drop and trust me, It rides as good as it looks

Here's another Shot of the Huge "Kumali" Sign with the lift hill and drop(with train) in the background

It really is a superb drop IMO,taken with plenty of speed and force

Under the drop

A far away view, Did I mention the drop was great

I really liked this coaster, I rode it 10 times,YES I rode a SLC 10 times,and NO I'm not mad, Its a good ride

The Train coming off the drop

Ooooo nice Picture Mr cameraman, not easy to get good pictures and get near clear expressions of people as this is the point where it goes at its highest speed

WOW that train is going at speed

OK One last shot of the train coming down the drop I promise
