Plopsaland De Panne, Belgium, are installing a Gerstlauer Launch Coaster for 2009, check out the impressions, stats and video on Rides.NL

After the launch runway the ride goes up vertical into a top hat, dive loop, lynet style top hat, dive loop, swoopy up into block brake, swoopy down, change of direction then a zero g roll into the brakes . . looks to be a serious monster of a ride

Nice to see they are using large, single elements (as opposed to cobra rolls etc).

I wouldn't be surprised to see quite a few more of these over the next few years in Belgium, Holland, Germany and Scandinavia.

I'm excited about this. YouTube have the animation for it. Gerstaluer are really making a name for themselves now, more than before.

"Anubis" is now testing! Looks very nice...

that looks great!

Blimey with all the coasters opening this season it was surprisingly for us to miss the launch of Anubis

check out the photos on fotogalerijen.be i'm liking the themeing of the station building and the track seems to obscured amongst some mature trees

looks like plopsaland now have a serious signature coaster . . i'm visiting walibi world in a few weeks but i can't pursuade jai to let me drive the 3hours to plopsaland to try anubis :P

The theming is amazing.

Am I imagining it or is there also a coaster somewhere that is actually a launched Euro Fighter? I seem to remember that also had good theming and went through buildings etc.

EDIT - Ah, I see. Fluch von Novgorod at Hansa Park.

What an incredible looking coaster, Anubis, and the theming is top notch. I couldn't help but wonder just how much airtime there is on that top hat, and the layout is splendid. I really love what Gerstlauer are doing at the moment, especially for the smaller parks.
