Helix Hyper Coaster? - Liseberg Behind the Scenes Tour

[@Silvarret]

Pontus is an absolute legend!

[@coasterbot]

I couldn't agree more!

[@stixel]

Sooo true

[@SonoBrook]

You‘re a legend silv!

[@QuadControl]

I agree with you sillv

[@melvinschrab505]

HE IS A GOD!

[@ThemeParked]

Very interesting and well-edited video Harry! Liseberg have actually filed plans for an expansion with a possible hyper coaster. I will be making a video on it soon if anyone is interested :)

[@wackywormchris729]

Please do that.

[@coasterbot]

Thank you! And oh really, when did they file those plans?

[@ThemeParked]

[@AttractionSource]

The hospitality from Liseberg is unparalleled. Great video.

[@coasterbot]

I couldn't agree more, and thank you :)

[@yourexperienceguide]

Pontus is a great guy, he’s always been amazing for me personally when visiting Liseberg and for PBE too.

[@coasterbot]

He really is! Liseberg as a whole is amazing too :)

[@LiToCoasterCouple]

The Man. The myth.. the Legend.. Pontus is such a great guy and a real encyclopedia when it comes to Liseberg 👌🏻

[@coasterbot]

He really is, he's awesome!

[@ToastGhost]

Love the stidown video concept and I can't wait for the standup, flying, wing, floorless, invert and surf variants.

[@coasterbot]

Inverted video is next ;)

[@euflopapark]

Wow, so much insider info in one video! I would love to experience a backstage tour like this one day!

[@coasterbot]

They're really awesome! Often roller coaster clubs hold them in conjunction with parks, so perhaps look into that :)

[@corkscrewfoley]

I got 15 years before Balder goes bye-bye? Damn. Awesome video, Harry. Liseberg always seems so enthusiast friendly. It's awesome.

[@coasterbot]

Exactly! And thank you. It really is an enthusiast friendly park :)

[@rcmaster207]

That park has a great history and ride line-up. Really need to go there soon!

[@coasterbot]

It really does and it's definitely worth visiting. It was one of the nicest theme park vibes I've experienced so far. :)

[@ChillaxeGames]

1:57 Ultimate Coaster X is getting some love!

[@cslkenny]

Really enjoyed this style of video and hearing some interesting behind the scenes stuff!

[@coasterbot]

Thanks! We'll look into trying to get more of these videos done, who knows :)

[@ericschmitz03]

I remember seeing the "evolution of helix" video a few years ago. It's really cool that you actually bring it up! But it got me thinking that Liseberg was ready to build a Mega/hyper coaster on top of the hill. So maybe after their current investments in the hotel and waterpark are finished they will be willing to build a new giant coaster on the hill. And if so, would it perhaps be an RMC t-rex?

[@coasterbot]

Who knows! Honestly I'd like to see the park continue to stick to rides that aren't that tall because Valkyria dominates the skyline right now and that looks awesome.

[@PIXEL602]

Keep the content coming its great!

[@rene7975]

Epic video! On the soundproofing of operator booth's. For Rock 'n Rollercoaster they did the same, there is minimal sound leakage into the operator cabin (Tower position) but it is nice and quiet while dispatching the soundtrackers.

[@coasterbot]

That's really cool :)

[@arran3451]

Very Interesting! Would love to see more 'Behind the Scenes' videos like this!

[@coasterbot]

Thanks for the feedback! I'll see what we can do about making more of these at other theme parks :)

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

Really enjoyed that one Harry . I bet that was a fantastic day , we love behind the scenes stuff🧱👍🏼

[@coasterbot]

Thanks guys, we really did have a fantastic day :)

[@SteveAndAlexBuild]

COASTER BOT 🤩🧱👍🏽

[@cycloid2326]

“Hello I’m back with another sit-down video.” Hey can we get an stand-up video? Maybe an invert, wing, dive, who knows?

[@SonOfFurzehatt]

Wouldn't recommend a floorless video.

[@coasterbot]

I'll make an inverted video next

[@cycloid2326]

COASTER BOT Nice. Better be fast paced, SUPER intense too.

[@PolyRocketMatt]

Very interesting video! Loved the little facts =D

[@coasterbot]

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

[@memecentral10]

I have never been on a major Mack Coaster (Only Mack Being Dark Knight at my Homepark GADV) or an RMC so I definitely wanna ride this one day

[@NorthEasternMotionProductions]

Wait if Helix’s trains were designed by Liseberg, then what did the original trains look like for Blue Fire?

[@coasterbot]

Not as sleek, more boxy in their design. Take a look at some photos of Blue Fire!

[@pollutingpenguin2146]

This is such a great video! Also - this is such a better format seeing you in the video as well - it makes is way more personal and less static!

[@coasterbot]

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it, we've got quite a few of these 'sit down' videos across the channel now :)

[@puffcatco]

hmm, that's interesting.

[@chrisshort4121]

Big up Pontus! and you Harry! nearly 50k wooooo

[@coasterbot]

Thank you, we are close to 50k, it's crazy!

[@ThemeParkVids]

I'd love to get a behind the scenes at Liseberg one time

[@joeeeee256]

We love Pontus!

[@coasterbot]

Definitely! :)

[@themeparkking120]

Definitely need to get over there looks awesome

[@coasterbot]

It really is!

[@2DamnSeddy]

The Great American Scream Machine at SFOG also has a timer e-stop. I think it was 50 seconds or less from lift to main brake... but it was so long ago I cannot be sure. Ive had to call maintenance due to an overspeed several times lol. It usually happened after it rained, or early in the morning in August/September when the weather was cooler.

[@coasterbot]

It's a really interesting fact actually! Thanks for sharing :)

[@alphazeroproductions4811]

Well this a never built hyper coaster in liseberg on Insane Rollercoasters they Never Built?

[@xcoasterenthusiast]

If it were built, it would ruin Gothenburg's skyline

[@alexzuelke5209]

having worked as a ride mechanic on a B&M dive they have 4 Road Wheels per car, two per bougie so 12 per train! Or 30,000 euros. in my experience the wheels hold up pretty well and only need changed maybe once a season. sounds like you got a great tour though and I will defiantly have to visit this park if i ever make it over to Europe

[@coasterbot]

Sounds like an awesome job, thanks for the additional information. Liseberg is definitely worth a visit :)

[@filleis6374]

Okay so about that thing with Lisebergsbanan... Any idea of what health and safety regulations it would break? I assume it probably has to do with clearance or the breaks at the end being that sudden.

[@marcussheen]

Liseberg is so classy with everything they do, and I'm not surprised they treated you so well. How did you personally find the vest restraints on Valkyria? I've not done a dive with vest restraints yet and am interested to know whether Liseberg were right to go with these compared to the standard overheads.

[@coasterbot]

The valkyria vest restraints are pretty good honestly! They don't push on you too much. The drop loses some of the free fall feeling because of them but the rest of the layout is great :)

[@marcussheen]

@@coasterbot Great, thanks for the reply!

[@ItzTheAce]

nice video

[@coasterbot]

Thanks :)

[@kaylittle6064]

Wow it looks amazing as a mega coaster it looks like it would of had lots of airtime from the thumbnail

[@coasterbot]

Yeah I'm sure it would have been awesome, but Helix is super awesome too!

[@kingsislandfanboy]

Can you do an invert video?

[@coasterbot]

Sure ;)

[@pollutingpenguin2146]

I know there was once a plan of building a B&M hyper styled rollercoaster along side Nellickevägen (street name) on the south section of the park that houses a lot of warehouses.

[@coasterbot]

Oh really? That's very interesting

[@rocketman1969]

Interesting

[@coasterbot]

Thanks :)

[@ridecrazy9853]

I have a question where did rollercoasters get the name “rollercoasters” why did they get named them?

[@coasterbot]

Now that's an interesting question! :)

[@321findus]

There are several explanations of the name roller coaster. It is said to have originated from an early American design where slides or ramps were fitted with rollers over which a sled would coast. This design was abandoned in favor of fitting the wheels to the sled or other vehicles, but the name endured. Another explanation is that it originated from a ride located in a roller skating rink in Haverhill, Massachusetts in 1887. A toboggan-like sled was raised to the top of a track which consisted of hundreds of rollers. This Roller Toboggan then took off down gently rolling hills to the floor. The inventors of this ride, Stephen E. Jackman and Byron B. Floyd, claim that they were the first to use the term "roller coaster". (Taken from a Wikipedia article on the etymology of roller coasters.)

[@melvinschrab505]

Liseberg"banana" is the first real big coaster i did and it is special

[@coasterbot]

It's a very cool ride!

However this Liseberg's Mega coaster concept was recently rejected by Harry for COASTER BOT and Aquour Fans due to controversy and trouble results of Final Love Live! in Europe?

[@djsugarc1075]

“theyre not supposed to be launches” yeah they are they just fail to be

[@TheSapier]

what

[@djsugarc1075]

Sapfire they fail to give the kick of a launch but they are launches

[@coasterbot]

They keep the momentum of the train going. Helix has some of the best pacing of any roller coaster I've ever ridden and it's thanks to the launches that that's the case!

[@TheSapier]

Hey Harry. I can't help but notice the white stringy stuff between your lips as you talk. It's not the first video where I've seen it so I had to say something. Otherwise, great video. Thanks!

[@coasterbot]

It's called saliva. Sadly our high quality camera combined with the close up nature of the shot leaves little to the imagination with regards to my face ha ha

[@RoinbinRobin]

Its sad, balder is gonna collapse prob, it has been closed since ages ago

They've been replacing the rides track. The park plans to get Balder open before the end of summer this year :)

i heard about it some days ago! I am really happy because i have never had a chance to ride it

thank andreas?? Helix is not very good, I can't believe that you can call it a launch coaster when the launch is weaker than some lifthills... GOD I HATE LSM AND MACK RIDES
