It is comfirmed that new Visionland at Zhaoqing will build Tilt Coaster, SLC, and Super Spinning Coaster from Golden Horse. Tilt Coaster and SLC has replaced Dive Machine and the other coaster with 52 meters tall. I feel sad to see the SLC, and I actually prefer to see Golden Horse 50 meters LSM launched coaster replacing the SLC at this park.

It is comfirmed that Fantasy Valley at Xiangyang has 3 roller coasters that are B&M Wing Coaster(image 3), GCI Woodie(image 4) and Golden Horse mine train coaster(image 5) respectively. The wing coaster features 3 or 4 inversions and over 60 degree first drop. Although I am not sure what type is the GCI coaster, it may use steel track(Showed at IAAPA 2019)to replace wooden track. The mine train is the same as Snow Mountain Racer from Sunacland Harbin featuring backward run and multi-media effects. I never considered all of shoot the chute as water coaster, but the shoot the chute(image 6), made by Golden Horse, combines turn table with backward run, and elevator lift system.

It looks like that some LSM fins are being mounted on the top hat. They don't look like the usual trim brakes. Maybe this is a new way to adjust the speed of the trains to make sure they make it over the top hat in all conditions.
