In a pioneering move, Movie Park Germany is considering equipping its legendary wooden roller coaster, The Bandit, with a modern titanium track. These considerations could fundamentally transform the riding experience, aligning with the positive experiences of other amusement parks.

Innovation Meets Tradition

Movie Park Germany may be on the verge of a change for its infamous wooden roller coaster, The Bandit. In a conversation with the commercial and creative director, Manuel Prossotowicz, the park's vision becomes clear: Introducing a titan steel track might be the solution to the coaster's well-known comfort issues. Inspired by the successful modifications to the roller coasters Joris en de Draak at Efteling and Wodan at Europa-Park, Movie Park is also considering the implementation of this innovative system.

Technological Progress for an Enhanced Riding Experience

The Titan track, developed by Great Coasters International, promises a significant improvement in ride comfort. By combining the classic wooden structure with modern steel technology, the rough and uncomfortable rides could become a thing of the past. Prossotowicz emphasizes the daily monitoring and close cooperation with the inspection authority to keep the attraction appealing and safe for visitors.

Future prospects and challenges

While the annual renewal of 120 to 150 meters of the track with wood continues, the decision to switch to the Titan track is still pending. However, discussions with potential partners such as Rocky Mountain Construction and Great Coasters International indicate the park's serious interest in this modern solution. Whether The Bandit becomes a hybrid roller coaster depends on various factors, including the long-term effectiveness of traditional retracing.

A turning point for The Bandit?

Movie Park Germany faces a decision that could revolutionize The Bandit's riding experience and set a new standard for the modernization of classic roller coasters. Investing in the Titan track reflects the park's commitment to innovation and guest satisfaction. The future of this legendary attraction remains exciting, with hopes for a smoother and more enjoyable ride experience.
