I guess this means the Supersplash is definitely on hold for now. But still, woop!

Re: "Unknown" - Mack Spinner, Toverland
Looking at the park, could fit it quite well, but I do remember Knott's being quite boring...
Euro-Mir is Euro-Mir though, though the ride section is just weird...
Chalk me up as a great big meh...

Yup. That one was a huge surprise at how fun it is.
Fun. Not OMG airtime/G-forces/intense.

Re: "Unknown" - Mack Spinner, Toverland
Ahh I forgot I'd been on the one at Knotts too. Which is absolutely DIRE. Completely useless, somehow also made me feel sick even though it barely spun.
But I think EuroMir is really underrated on here. It's amazingly unique and experimental. The lifthill is just awesomely fun, as is the top bit. And the coaster section is simply really great. And REALLY intense if you're facing backwards.

Re: "Unknown" - Mack Spinner, Toverland
I don't understand what's so great about Euro Mir?
It's cool because it's messed up, not because it's actually good...
The coaster section is really slow, pretty rough, very repetitive and it doesn't spin much at all...?
Anyway, they're more like Knott's now, and that other one at Le Pal, which is to say, pretty crap.
I dunno what's so great about USJ's one, but, I doubt it's altogether too much that will correlate with this one.

Re: "Unknown" - Mack Spinner, Toverland
There is controlled spinning during the lifthill and the 'top section'. Then the cars lock and you either go down the first drop forwards or backwards. Then, on the first MCBR, all the cars control spin 180° and lock. There is no free spinning at any point or any spinning during the coaster section.
That's because it's not really a spinning coaster, the spinning is locked throughout the entire coaster section.Ben said:

I quite liked the look of the one at Le Pal, small and quirky. I think Euro Mir was turd though, very boring.
I'm quite disappointed that Toverland is getting one tbh. I was hoping for them to get something amazing but apparently that's not happening.

So much for the rumoured Batman clone from waaaay back.
Now well. This will be a neat addition anyway. Might be a hit with families.

Re: "Unknown" - Mack Spinner, Toverland
^Exactly. As diappointed as I am that we're not getting another Troy-like addition, what we have to remember is that as the end of the day, Toverland is a kids park. It seemed like they were making steps to broaden their audience with Troy, but now I can't help but see that as something to keep the thrillseekers in the family content?
I hope I'm wrong, but it looks like we won't be seeing another high-thrill attraction at Toverland for a while now.

Re: "Unknown" - Mack Spinner, Toverland
The one at Knotts when I rode it was awesome. Got so so much spin, so much more than I ever have on Spinball. We were loaded nicely with myself and a uni mate on one side and a 15 year old kid on the other.
It seems most people on here had the opposite experience but i guess as with every spinner I have ever ridden your ride depends so heavily on loading that ride experiences will always vary.
