So yeah, I dont know if Huss forgot to pack some stuff in SFGAm's shipping crates, or if SFGAm didnt feel like installing certain things, but I can name probably 100 things on that Top Spin that dont appear on ours, that would be much appreciated on ours. I think we were ripped off :)

But yeah, that is Talocan a new Huss Suspended Top Spin at Phantasialand in Germany, it's a pretty standard example of how Euro parks take themeing to the max, whereas in the US the ride by itself is deemed acceptable.

Also if you search on YouTube for Talocan there is a slew of vids out there, showing it's rather impressive cycle.

That ride is sweet looking, great theming. Too bad KC can't have theming like that, maybe I'd ride it more with that sub-par cycle that it has.

Reminds me of Tomb Raider.

I wish ours had sweet pryo and water effects.
Don't they have fire breathers at Mardi Gras? :)

A furious storm once roared `cross the sea, catching ships in its path, helpless to flee. Instead of a certain and watery doom, the winds swept them here to Typhoon Lagoon!

Wow, that ride has awsome theming. That part where the car locks in the top and then goes all the way around looks pretty sweet. Although it kinda looks like the backside gets screwed over with the view.
