Airtimes Inversionen Intensität

Holy shit. By far the most underrated coaster and currently the best B&M I've ridden, that list including Fury 325. The rides helices ride similar to i305's first turn and they just try to kill you. Then there's snap like elements that are close to i305s. The first drop and drop off mcbr give good floajector. Low-key a masterpiece.

I remembered it to be more or less like Stampida, with a drop which was even better, and some reviews confirmed that, but when I rode it last time, it turned out to be just a good family coaster, yet not anything better than its neighbour. I guess it's just expectations: if you think you are going to a kiddie, and you ride this right after Stampida, which seemed a thrilling coaster and actually is quite family-friendly, then it will look like if Tomahawk was more exciting than Stampida. However, being unbiased, it's just a family ride. It's really good for what it is, with some strong laterals and a couple of fun drops, but it cannot compare to the other woodie. The new trains, however, are extraordinarily better than the old, yellow ones. I've always loved GCI's millennium flyers, and I was not surprised to find out that mini-llennium flyers are just as good (only a bit smaller and tighter). Moreover, the capacity is great, since, even though it was an empty day, with no queue times over 15 min in the main rides, Tomahawk was running two trains, so there was never any queue!

It does not rattle. Not at all. I don't understand why people complain about it, especially having Furius Baco right there to compare. Yes, it is true that Stampida is a bit shaky at the back rows, which is understantable considering it is a 23-years-old woodie (as of 2020), but in the middle-front seats it's rather smooth, the drop is quite fun and it provides a long and enjoyable experience overall. The trains could be improved, but the coaster itself is really nice, having some weak yet fun airtime moments, hills, turns and that interesting racing element. Moreover, it is a woodie, which is an extra point for me, and hearing the roar of the wood as the train goes by is already part of the experience. Really recommendable, though it could do with some more theming.

It was better than expected. Despite being obviously way too short, leaving me desiring more, it was so intense, and the train hit so hard the final brakes, that it was definitely worth it. It can be a bit rattly at the back, especially at the end of the launch, but that didn't bother me at all. The (Mack copied) restraints were really comfortable, though they seem extremely dangerous (when the ride is over, they let go so fast that I think they could have cut off my head if I hadn't reacted quickly ;) ). The train is nicely themed, but unfortunately that's all the theming it gets. However, it's not something too important in this coaster for me, as it looks really, really, really impressive, and you don't even notice it lacks theming. The launch is great, very sustained and reaches a record speed, and climbing up that huge top hat is as impressive as it seems. At the back rows, the drop is amazing, and you feel that life is going to be over soon. At the very front one, however, despite having some weak floater at the top hat, the drop is not that good, though you get some breath-taking views. Moreover, feeling the speed and the wind on your face is thrilling, and the security glasses are cool. To end with, as the park is a bit stingy, we don't have a nice speed hill like in Stealth or Kingda Ka, but at least we are offered a tiny bunny hop which provides some short floater pop as well. The ride is over before you realise, yet it's so intense that it leaves you breathless.

I didn't think it was rattly or uncomfortable at all, contrary to popular believe, and even though it might not be the smoothest coaster out there, it's quite liveable. Although the OTSR didn't offer much freedom, as typical, the trains were quite comfy, providing plenty of leg room - something I value a lot. However, it doesn't live up to other B&M loopers which are a bit more modern, such as Superman: La atracción de acero. The drop was disappointing (yet I understand it was a good one at it's time) and it was overall worse. Nonetheless, it featured some intense elements, outstanding the insane zero-g-roll with its crazy whip. Perhaps it also lacks some airtime, but considering it is located just under that massive airtime machine, I'll look past it. The color scheme is beautiful, and the location by Shambhala is really impressive. Being able to wander under the structure and hear the deafening sound of the coaster is an invaluable experience. A nice, classic coaster worth riding.

Better than I remembered some years ago. The theming is outstanding, with that catchy soundtrack and the eerie story, which perfectly fits the ride, and those nice trains and awesome preshow help make it more credible. The winged trains are a nice plus, and not having a floor forced intamin to leave some comfortable leg room ;). However, they are not very comfy (my issue wasn't with the harness, but with the seats and their too straight back), and, as expected, if you get an outer sit and/or any row other than the front one, the ride can be quite rattly. I didn't mind it a lot, however, even though it was a bit painful and it wouldn't be adviseable to marathon (might have unpleasant consequences). Unfortunately, there are always long queues on the mornings, due to its location, but on the afternoons it calms down a bit. As for the coaster itself, it is definetely intense, you really feel the speed, it's fast paced, the launch is great (my favourite so far) and you even get some airtime after it. The inversion offers great hangtime, which I'm a massive fan of, but it can be a bit uncomfortable, especially if you ride an outer sit. Perhaps it feels too short, right, but if it were any longer, people on the outer back sits wouldn't survive, would they? On the whole, a great winged launched coaster, highly recommendable if you are willing to look past that little discomfort.

Airtimes First Drop Schoßbügel

Exceeded expectations (which were rather low despite its popularity after Silver Star's huge disappointment). The location is outstanding, with that gorgeous color scheme, mixed up with the Dragon, and they both can be seen from almost every corner of the park. It looks impressive, especially when walking under it through the Himalayan area, and it's highly comfortable: really smooth, and great trains, providing freedom, comfort, nice views from every seat (thanks to the staggered seating). Those B&M clamshells enhance the already awesome experience. The first drop is one of the best I've ever ridden, and the airtime is way better than in Silver Star (actually, all the forces are stronger). Front rows provide more sustained floater, whereas the back ones offer stronger airtime at the drops. The speed hill gives some really strong airtime, great at every row, and, together with the drop, it's my favourite part of the ride. Overall, a magnificent coaster with great airtimes, duration, comfort, look and drop, which didn't get repetitive nor boring as expected after more than ten rerides (11).

It's more a dark ride than a coaster, but it's anyway the most beautiful ride at the park (as of 2018), and probably one of the best dark rides in Europe. Seeing everything from above, with rotations and changing speed, gives the ride an extra point. Also, the coaster part is really nice, and it looks gorgeous from outside, when it leaves the building just before finishing. The indoor area and queue are really well themed, as well, and the part when soaring over the zone's square feels magical. I really loved this ride, and I'd love to see more dark ride-coaster hybrids coming to Europe soon!

First Drop Komfort Dauer

First of all, I don't fully consider this to be a roller coaster, but a simple boat ride. This being said, it's my favourite ride of it's kind, having perhaps the greatest drop a water ride can have. Also, I listed "Duration" as a pro, not because I think it is long, but the opposite: it is short and concise, it doesn't wander around for ages until you eventually reach the thrill part, and that's something important for me. In such a short layout, it has the typical backwards tiny drop, the big one and a small airtime moment afterwards. Besides, the dolphins always surprise me and leave me soaked, and the trains are highly comfortable for a water ride, featuring roller coaster restraints. Finally, it has some nice theming, specially in the queue, although not as good as other rides at the park. EDIT: Not my top water ride anymore; I've ridden Chiapas...
