We covered the thrilling new "Steel Dragon 2000"

掲載日:2013.03.21

We covered Nagashima Spaland 's new Steel Dragon 2000, which has undergone a complete model change. We will also introduce it in the video! (March 2013)

Nagashima Spaland is a popular tourist spot that is centered around an amusement park with a wide variety of attractions that will satisfy everyone from thrill ride enthusiasts to small children, as well as hot springs, outlets, and the Anpanman Museum.
The Steel Dragon 2000, which broke many world records when it debuted, is now fully remodeled this spring.

When you show it to me, it's very simple and open. If you were to compare it to a car, it would be like a cart without a body such as a roof or doors, only a seat and seat belt attached to the chassis.
When I got into the last seat and sat on the seat, I couldn't put my foot down. When you fasten your seatbelt, lower the safety bar, and lock it firmly, it feels like you're suspended in the air.

``Welcome!'' The staff sends us off with a smile, and we climb the rails at a good speed.

My heartbeat increased in proportion to the height, but when I looked around, I saw a spectacular view of the White Cyclone, the Ferris wheel, and even Nagashima Spaland.
As the weather was perfect, we were able to see the sky, sea, and mountains 360 degrees, which was a wonderful surprise.
Once you reach the highest point at 97m, the highest point in Japan, you will quickly slide down 93.5m. The inclination angle is up to 68 degrees, so it feels like you are falling headlong.
By the way, it seems that a load of 3.5G (3.5 times the body weight), which is similar to F1 cornering and full braking, is applied here. It was very interesting! Please come and experience it for yourself.

To see what happens from here, please take a look at the video taken with special permission at the test drive event. However, please note that the information is quite blurry.

New Steel Dragon 2000 introduced at Nagashima Spaland

The Steel Dragon 2000 course first passes over two large mountains shaped like camel's humps, then curves right around JazzDreamNagashima, and ends with six consecutive humps. With a total length of 2479m, it is the longest in the world.
Reach the goal filled with thrill, excitement, and joy. It was more amazing than I imagined.

Raise the safety bar, unfasten your seatbelt, and head for the exit. When I went down the stairs, I saw pictures of all the passengers displayed on the monitor. Everyone was looking back at the three and a half minutes earlier and laughing and saying things like, ``You look amazing,'' ``I'm embarrassed,'' ``I'm looking down,'' and ``I'm happy.'' It will be an unforgettable photo.

On this day, an advance test drive of the new Steel Dragon 2000 was held, and people who won the lottery were lined up.
When I spoke to a couple from Nagoya, they said they love the thrilling rides and have been coming to Nagashima Spaland often since November of last year. I'm looking forward to the new Steel Dragon 2000! that's what he said. How was it?

Since I had the chance, I took a tour around the park. Perhaps because it was spring break, the place was crowded with many students even though it was a weekday.
It was a little too fast from the Steel Dragon 2000, so I took the Ferris wheel and calmed down from a height of 90 meters to enjoy the scenery. You can hear the sounds of various attractions moving and happy voices.
The wooden coaster White Cyclone also looked very bright and beautiful.

The highlight of Nagashima Spaland is not just the screaming machines. The kids town is very fulfilling for small children.
This time, along with the Pokemon walk-through attraction, we stopped by the "Chibikko Hiroba", which opened last year and is aimed at infants and toddlers.
There are lots of fun play equipment here, including slides and jungle gyms. It also has a roof, so you don't have to worry about it even if it's sunny or raining.
Also, the ground is covered with a soft safety mat that won't hurt if you fall, so it's very safe.

・Target: 1 year old to 6th grade elementary school student (must be accompanied by a guardian of high school age or older)
・Fee: 500 yen for 45 minutes for children, 500 yen for one time for parents (passports and vehicle tickets cannot be used)

There was a family playing here with their children, so I asked them about it.
They came from Aichi Prefecture with their two-year-old and one-year-old children, and they said, ``Even small children can feel at ease.It's spacious.There's a lot of play equipment.We can have fun together.'' When children are happy, parents are also happy.
By the way, his wife likes the thrill rides and used to come to Nagashima Spaland often, but since they had a child, she hasn't been able to go there anymore, so this was her first time in a while.
If you are raising children or have a baby, please go to Nagashima Spaland and take a chance to ride the new Steel Dragon 2000. Or, it would be a good idea to go with your grandparents, all three generations, and have them take a look.

Although we did not interview this time, the ``Nagoya Anpanman Museum'' attached to Nagashima Spaland is also very popular with small children.
On this day, we could hear fun music and children's voices.

・Fee: 1,500 yen (1 year old or older) (free for children under 1 year old)
*Kids over 1 year old and under elementary school age will receive a souvenir.
・Time: 10:00-17:00 (last entry 16:00)
*Changes depending on the season and may be closed for maintenance.

*The information posted is as of March 2013.
