How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk (Epic Universe)

[Disneyhead]

They seem to be lifting a dragon into place on the left side.

I wonder why the sky fly on the left is always the only one operating?

Kersploosh!

Kersploosh!

Animatronic baby dragons moving at end of the video too.

Any additional theme work planned for this area?

Looking good! Also, I find the second launch a lot more intriguing than I thought it would be.

Spoiler

As it comes to a stop when you arrive (akin to Slinky Dog Dash), then proceeds to move forward and go up the hill...only to rollback and then get launched fully.

Considering the machines we're flying on are incomplete, that can be played up as a failed launch and/or the machines running into trouble.

Or they’re just rollbacks during testing and not intentionally part of the ride?

Considering almost every view of that launch had a roll back, I'm inclined to believe that's intentional. And any shot with two trains over there had one train smoothly arriving and stopping as the train ahead was fully launching over the hill. Hopefully we'll be getting more clear footage soon that will either confirm or disprove that.

I assumed it would be similar to Slinky dog's second launch.

Wow, that looks so real. HTTYD is going to look amazing. What an immersive atmosphere if you have dragons flying overhead.

THE DRAGON!! THE DRAGON!! THE DRAGON!!

Sorry, couldn't help myself. XP

With Bio's latest overhead video, I did keep my eye out for a particular sight annnnd...

Spoiler

While it's a little harder to view the second launch as the video is constantly moving around, it's still clearly full testing with multiple trains running the circuit...and at the 28 second mark you can see another rollback on the second launch hill.

As I said before, I do feel that is part of the ride experience. With multiple trains running on the circuit and it's still doing a rollback on the second launch, that's gotta' be intentional.
