Jinma Rides New LSM Launch Coaster -- "Soar Through the Clouds" at Xiaogan Fantawild
As summer arrives, Xiaogan welcomes a new landmark in cultural tourism — Xiaogan Fantawild Adventure Park officially opens to the public. Centered on a prehistoric dinosaur theme, the park’s Wild Land Zone features an immersive amusement system empowered by cutting-edge technologies, delivering a one-of-a-kind experience distinct from traditional theme parks. Jinma Rides has customized over ten indoor and outdoor amusement rides for the park, among which the star attraction — the all-new large-scale LSM Launch Roller Coaster “Soar Through the Clouds” — stands out as the park’s flagship masterpiece.
Large-scale roller coasters have long been iconic highlight projects of theme parks. As a world-class customized Launch Roller Coaster , “Soar Through the Clouds” greatly elevates the park’s brand influence and market competitiveness. Its launch not only equips Xiaogan Fantawild with a highly recognizable core attraction but also serves as a new driving force for boosting regional cultural tourism consumption.
LSM Launch & Progressive Thrilling Experience
Powered by Jinma Rides’ self-developed patented LSM (Linear Synchronous Motor) launch technology, “Soar Through the Clouds” enables instantaneous high-acceleration launch, propelling riders to a height of 30 meters in seconds. Boasting a maximum operating speed of 90 km/h and a track length of over 800 meters, the coaster accommodates 20 passengers per train and adopts a dual-train alternating operation mode, ensuring dense departure frequency and high operational efficiency.
The entire ride maintains ultra-high speed from explosive launch start and steep vertical dives to consecutive inversions, delivering non-stop thrills throughout the journey. Many visitors shared their immersive experience, describing the ride as featuring intense launch thrust, non-stop heartbeat acceleration and soaring adrenaline. It offers an extreme sense of speed and weightlessness, bringing an immersive and exhilarating thrill.
In terms of track design, the coaster achieves innovative breakthroughs by integrating multiple cutting-edge elements, including top hat elements, camelback hills, ultra-inclined reverses and zero-gravity rolls. Compared with conventional roller coaster designs such as crescent arches and vertical loops, these innovative track configurations deliver more frequent and intense weightless sensations. Supported by high-precision spatial curve track technology, all track sections transition seamlessly, guaranteeing an ultra-smooth and stable riding experience.
World-class craftsmanship, delivering both ultimate safety and supreme comfort.
“Soar Through the Clouds” adopts rigorous premium manufacturing techniques in every detail, achieving a perfect balance of ultimate safety and optimized riding comfort:
Optimized Train Structure: Equipped with a newly developed infinitely adjustable hydraulic locking restraint system, the coaster enhances overall riding comfort. The elimination of traditional waist belts greatly improves passenger boarding and alighting efficiency. Key structural components including wheel frames and vehicle frames are integrally formed via CNC machining with seamless welding-free design, significantly upgrading structural safety and durability.
Flexible Wheel System: The advanced flexible wheel structure effectively reduces operational noise and filters out bumpy vibrations during operation, ensuring an exceptionally smooth and stable ride.
High-Precision Track Technology: The track adopts a box beam structure with large-span support columns, presenting a sleek and magnificent visual effect while reducing infrastructure construction costs. All track pipes are integrally bent into 3D spatial curves with precision fully aligned with design standards, reaching international top-level accuracy.
Independent R&D technology to Reshape Industry Value
The most remarkable highlight of “Soar Through the Clouds” is its 100% independent technology by Jinma Rides
Jinma Rides self-developed LSM launch system features a fully independent and controllable supply chain, free from overseas technical and supply chain restrictions, and provides efficient and professional technical support and after-sales services at any time. This groundbreaking technology overcomes multiple core technical bottlenecks that once relied on foreign imports, drastically lowering the threshold for domestic theme parks to introduce high-end Launch Roller Coaster s. To date, Jinma’s self-developed Launch Roller Coasters have been deployed in numerous top domestic theme parks including Chimelong, Fantawild and Happy Valley, gaining widespread market recognition and popularity.
Furthermore, the coaster is equipped with an advanced supercapacitor energy storage system. While imported equivalent Launch Roller Coasters usually require an installed capacity of over 2,500 kVA, “Soar Through the Clouds” only needs 500 kVA — merely one-fifth of imported products. This innovative advantage enables old and existing theme parks to introduce top-tier launch coaster projects without grid capacity expansion, greatly reducing construction investment and operational barriers, and making high-end thrilling amusement rides accessible to more scenic spots and parks.
The successful launch of “Soar Through the Clouds” once again demonstrates Jinma Rides’ full-chain strength covering independent R&D, professional design, precision manufacturing and one-stop project delivery. As the only Chinese ride supplier mastering core LSM launch technology in China’s amusement industry, Jinma Rides delivers mature technology, stable supply chains and responsive after-sales services. We provide customized integrated solutions for Launch Roller Coasters tailored to diverse park site conditions, thematic styles and operational needs. Jinma Rides looks forward to cooperating with global cultural tourism investors and theme park operators to create greater industrial value and win-win development.
