Limit, Is a steel roller coaster located at Heide Park, Germany. It opened in 1999 and is a standard 689m layout Suspended Looping Coaster manufactured by Vekoma. The colour scheme of the ride is a white track and olive green supports. It is located in the 'Transilvania' section of the park.
Ride Experience
Limit, is a much used layout with many copies around the world.
The ride starts with a 109.3ft to the top of the lift hill. Next the ride drops 91ft down a banked drop reaching speeds of 50 m.p.h. The train then immediately navigates a sea-serpent roll (2 Half loops connected by a corkscrew). Once the train exits the sea-serpent roll it then navigates a banked turn, sidewinder, helix and into two heart-line rolls. The train then performs a few turns and into the brake run.
Colour Scheme
Limit has exactly the same colour scheme as Big Loop, a nearby steel roller coaster also manufactured by Vekoma. People often think that Limit and Big Loop are one long roller coaster due to their colour schemes and the similar locations. The bob-sled roller coaster elsewhere in the park has the same colour scheme.
