    Top 10(ish): 2024 Edition - page 124

    Interesting! Do you consider Dinoconda to be better than the other 4D coasters? It seems rather similar to Eejanaika. Would be interesting to hear your thoughts on how it differ from it's siblings! (having only been on X2 myself) Also: interesting with Soaring with Dragon that high in your...

    Monster-Raving Goony Party: Liseberg.

    I'm glad you persuaded(/forced?) your companions to go on Snake! Like I wrote above I really loved the ride: some great and unexpected forces, not too dizzying and awe-inspiring looks. I hope that (at least) the majority of the group enjoyed their ride 😂

    Hornets, heatwaves and Hooters- 10 days in the US

    Great to see some I305 appreciation! I totally agree with you Serena: what a rush! Wish there where more of these around 😊 Also glad to read that you had a really good time!

    Monster-Raving Goony Party: Liseberg.

    So I'm waiting for the Howie trip report and all, but meanwhile I'm wondering what your impressions where of Skara Sommarland, and Snake in particular? We actually went to Skara with the family a couple of weeks after you've been. There have admittedly not been much cred hunting since we got...

    “Size isn’t everything”… or is it?

    Interesting topic with som interesting answeres! I'm with you Matt. A lot of people in the enthusiast community proclaim that size doesn't matter. But me, I love a big old coaster! Sure, looking at my top 10 I got some smaller coasters like Juvelen and Phoenix. But the vast majority are big...

    PortAventura | Uncharted | Intamin Multi-Dimension Coaster | 2023

    ^ Exactly. An Intamin Family Launch Coaster would be a perfect fit! But I would not expect anything as well themed as the NL2 creation actually showing up at the park.

    PortAventura | Uncharted | Intamin Multi-Dimension Coaster | 2023

    I think this would be a really good fit for the park seeing as Port Aventura imo are lacking a bit in the family thrill department. Diablo is plain boring and Stampida is coming of age. A new and exciting family thrill coaster like "Immelman Footers" is proposing would be perfect!

    Theme park books; read anything good lately?

    Great topic! I always enjoy a good read :) Good tip with David Younger. Haven't heard of. Will have to look that one up 👍 On a similar note Salvador Anton Clavé has written the all-embracing Global Theme Park Industry. As a researcher at the Univesity of Tarragona (next door to Port Aventura)...

    Your favourite MCBR entries and exits

    I would actually say that the exit from Dragon Khan's mcbr is even more spectacular: fast, snappy and loaded with positive G's. Dragon Khan is one of the few rides where the mcbr feels like an integral part of the experience and actually enhance the ride!

    Parc Astérix | Toutatis | Intamin Launch Coaster | 2023

    I'm with you. I think it's the secrecy that makes me excited. Plus I've always wanted to visit Parque Warner. It just looks like a really solid park. But without a standout coaster I have always choosen another destination for my trips. Superman looks good and Batman clones are always fun, but...

    How many different number 1s have you had?

    Finally something knocking Skyrush from the throne 🙂 What is it that you like so much about Zadra? Seeing as no other RMC have been able to dethrone Skyrush. What's unique and so good with Zadra? Personally I like RMC. They're good fun rides. But out of the ones I've been on no one is near my...

    Rank your Ridden B&M Inverts

    1. Katun A giant beast of a coaster. Tall, fast and forcefull. Great theming too, and the landscaping with all the plantings is top notch! I really like #2 and #3 as well, but what puts Katun apart for me is the sheer size and speed. 2. Black Mamba I'm a big fanboy. Both Katun and Black Mamba...

    Monster-Raving Goony Party: Liseberg.

    Great read! Sorry I couldn't join... I had work and couldn't take the time of. But at least I did take the time to log onto CF after a looong break to check out how things went 😄 It looks like you had a blast at Gröna Lund! Great park. Even though they've been missing a headliner, the park...

    Overrated and Underrated Roller Coasters

    The only problem I have with Rita is that it's way too short. And Furius Baco, besides being rough, is a ****ing faboulus ride! Think I'll love Maverick ?
