UAE: Motiongate Dubai Announces Two New Thrill Rollercoasters for Early 2021

Der John Wick-4D Free Spin Coaster wird eine der zwei Achterbahn-Neuheiten im Motiongate-Themenpark sein.
Early 2021 will see the debut of two new rollercoasters at Dubai’s MotiongateTM film theme park, which is part of Dubai Parks & Resorts. Thrill enthusiasts can look forward to a new 4D Free Spin Coaster from S&S and a Spinning Coaster from German manufacturer Maurer Rides, both to be installed in the “Lionsgate” theme area in the park.
The 4D Free Spin Coaster will receive a theming related to the successful “John Wick” action movie series. Named “John Wick: Open Contract”, the ride will feature a track length of over 310 meters, on which guests will experience forces of up to 2.8 g when they freely spin forwards and backwards and rush along steep track sections at the same time at a top speed of 64 km/h.
As “the world’s fastest single-car spinning coaster”, Motiongate is announcing the “Now You See Me: High Roller” Spinning Coaster, based on the “Now You See Me” blockbuster movie. The coaster layout will include elements such as an Immelmann turn, a half twist and non-inverted loops. Riders will reach a top speed of up to 70 km/h. The creative design for the two new rollercoasters is being developed in cooperation with Forrec.
Denis Pascal, General Manager of Motiongate Dubai, comments: “We’re starting 2021 with a bang and offering our guests never before experienced attractions! We’re continually looking at ways to enhance the MOTIONGATE™ Dubai experience and we cannot wait to break some world records with these two brand new coasters. They will not disappoint even the most daring amongst us.” (eap)
