But then you end up missing out on 11 acts. Latvia's song last year was probably my second favorite behind Finland and they didn't even make the cut to the final. But yeah, also all in on the Lasagna bandwagon. Marko comes from a small Croatian town just across the Slovenian border and he's...

I think they're fairly inoffensive, at least the one in Skyline Park was more fun than any of their remaining coasters are. But both their capacity and their reliability are absolutely horrible, so I have no idea why any somewhat major park would want to build one and why Maurer are seemingly...

Re: the rattle on RtH, do you feel there's a significant difference between the two trains? When we went, none of us thought the ride had any sort of noticable rattle, but it was also less than a year after opening and one of the trains was out of service after an accident earlier in the year...

Oof, I take it the launch is becoming a right mess? I'll have everything crossed that you can get some rides in today!

Yeah, I wasn't a fan of Dreamcatcher, one ride was more than enough. Vicky the Ride is a bit better, but nothing particularly interesting to write home about. Halvar (or Smurf something as it is known as now) is the better coaster of the two, but it still sucks to not get both of them after...

Is this a different project from Majaland Katowice that they have listed for a planned opening in 2026 on their website? It does feel a bit odd to have two major projects opening in such close proximity in the same year. Also, on the topic of the other possible locations that are mentioned in...

Wow, we're a bit early into the construction, but someone just has to be first, huh? ;)

Yeah, mine are also due for an update, since these have changed quite a fair bit over the past 3 years. The first two post-pandemic trips in particular had a big impact on my numbers, as they were mostly based on revisiting some of the old favorites. Top 10 most ridden coasters are: =1. Troy...

Vertigo was a Technical Park Flying Fury (pretty much a vertical flat ride, so it took up basically no space). I've never visited the park when this was still in operation, but afaik, it was located in the Western part of the park, between the drop tower and the Zierer Force coaster.

I assume the purpose of this poll is to see what the current views of it are and then do it again once enough people have done it with the new trains? But as you said, since most of us are Europe based, there won't be a huge number of frequent posters that will have done the new trains by the...

4 years later and it's moderately fruitful in terms of the new Intamins (only grabbed 70 odd coasters since then, so fair play) Indiana Jones et le Temple du Péril, Disneyland Paris (2009) iSpeed, Mirabilandia (2009) Superman: Escape from Krypton, SFMM (2011) DiVertical, Mirabilandia (2012)...

Started writing this on a slow day at work, forgot to save it and lost it. So I'm making good use of the last slow day at work this year. :P Coaster count at start of 2023: 352 Coaster count at end of 2023: 374 Coaster count increase: 22 (kind of on the low end of the average/decent coaster...

Also hanging at a 90° angle before the drop might be pretty uncomfortable without any upper body support. Tough to do a lap-bars only tilt, unless you do it the Jinma style.

Fair, though I do feel that Magic Mountain was pretty decent with the new Vekoma trains (and before the horrid retrack, though I can't speak through personal experience). Hell, I thought it tracked better than Raptor in 2019... Blue Tornado and Sequoia are worse than Ortobruco Tour, I can give...

And Eurosat was replaced by a new and mostly identical coaster as well and it wasn't considered a new coaster by rcdb or coaster-count. Likewise, Plopsaland and Parc Asterix have replaced their aging Tivolies with identical coasters and rcdb didn't make new entries for either of those. It's...

I think my mindset has changed a few times since I became an enthusiast, though at the moment, I feel like I'm more in the B category rather than A. And even if I do go on trips to regions that don't have any worthwhile coasters, I usually try to tack something else that is of interest on. But...

Any idea on what's going on with Twister? From what I gathered, it hasn't run since September 2022 and while there was some obvious retracking going on in October 2022, the recent reports suggest that the ride is more or less standing idle. Was its extended closure also in part a casualty of the...
