I was just looking around on rcdb.com looking at some coaster info. Upon my looking into La Ronde in Montreal, I noticed something odd in their coaster line-up. Now this may be news to some, or already known to others. They moved a Vekoma SLC there that was originally at Six Flags Astroworld which opened this year and renamed it Ednör - L'Attaque.

What makes this "odd" is the fact that they already have the B&M Batman clone Vampire.

It seems weird to have 2 adult size, full circuit inverteds from 2 diffrent manufacturers in the same park; even tho the SLC was transplanted. They also both have 5 inversions. I know they are 2 different experiences, but still seems like an odd choice. Of course if they had an adult and jr would make sense (although, I wish B&M would make a jr version...those Vekoma Jr's are HELL as many have experienced). I guess some could look at it like parks having multiple wood coasters which are alike- yet different, but still. Anyways. Thought I would share.



**EDIT**: I see it was mentioned in another thread, but with little discussion as it was about SFKK closing.
