Sandusky, Monday, 1 September 2025.
On Monday Vekoma unveiled three strategic moves across North America: Siren’s Curse, its first U.S. tilt coaster, now operating at Cedar Point; Yeti Trek, a compact family coaster at Santa’s Village; and an expanded Orlando office to anchor regional sales, delivery and field service. The most striking detail is the tilt-coaster’s novel launch/tilt mechanism—marketed as delivering headline thrills while boosting throughput and shrinking footprint—paired with a family model engineered for high dispatch frequency and low operating intensity. For operators, these actions signal a clear commercial play: diversify the product range to capture both capacity-driven family demand and marquee coaster investments, and reduce project risk by localizing parts, engineering and installation support. Expect shorter lead times, stronger aftermarket service in the Americas and closer collaboration on integrations. This package matters to parks prioritizing operational efficiency, capacity management and faster time-to-revenue for new attractions.
