Achterbahn Rezensionen

Spaß Layout Rütteln Kapazität

Especially the first drop, but also some other moments have some jolty moments - at least the mouse curves are taken smoothly and the ride experience is alright. Theming looks good from the distance, but the closer you get, the simpler it looks - and not to mention the eponymous dragon, which looks like it has been gotten into a car crusher!

Thematisierung Zu kurz Layout

Layout is pretty short and bland, but there are some unusual theming objects you would not expect - especially on an alpine coaster!

Standort Komfort Airtimes Dead spots

Not as bad as I expected: yes, the hills are taken way too slow to provide any airtime (even on a hot day) and the ride experience as a whole is underwhelming considering the appearance of this large structure. But on the other hand, there was no major rattle, seats are quite comfortable and some of the drops are still fun. And somehow I like the location close to nature which fits to the charme and appearance of this coaster - and the adjacent railway line can lead to funny duelling effects with the coaster train :)

Il est trop bien !

Thematisierung Nette Überraschung! Spaß

A really cool combination between a darkride and a family-friendly indoor roller coaster. Theming is done very well, there is even a (surprisingly dark!) background story. The faster part of the ride is great fun - for this small footprint, the overall experience is amazing!

Tempo Spaß Layout

Size doesn't matter - considering the relatively small size of this coaster, the ride experience is outstanding: The turns and changes in direction are taken quite whippy, there are some bunnyhops with great airtime and pacing is kept extremely well from the first drop to the break run. Additionally, the layout is creative and has a decent length - I really like how it is intertwined with the log flume. Additionally, the staff was very kind and funny which adds to the very fun experience on El Toro! Last but not least, a tip for some extra speed: Ride this while or shortly after rain - with wet rails, the bull goes completely crazy :)

Irrelevant Layout

Prepare yourself to get hit with small brushes by the operator :D

First Drop

A very smooth ride that has a fun layout and a good first drop but it is just too tame to be considered a stand out coaster. I think some of the airtime moments would have probably delivered more with lap bars instead of vest restraints. A good family coaster rather than a top thrill ride.

Airtimes Layout Ejectors

Hyperion delivers an airtime packed layout. It has an outstanding first drop followed by an intense airtime hill that gives an insane amount of sustained ejector- the best single airtime moment I have experienced. The rest of the ride is snappy and aggressive with more fantastic ejector moments and strong laterals.

First Drop Meisterwerk Intensität Airtimes

Wodan et son agressivité peu commune complètent parfaitement le trio d'Europa Park aux côtés de Blue Fire et Silver Star. Dès l'entrée de la file d'attente, on est plongé dans l'univers des dieux nordiques, et ce n'est qu'un avant goût de ce qui nous attend. La file d'attente extérieure qui serpente entre les supports de cet imposant wooden est sympa, mais c'est de loin la file d'attente intérieur, son ambiance et ses nombreuses surprises qui m'ont le plus bluffé (domage qu'elle ne soit plus accessible dernièrement). La musique est harmonieuse et les détails dans la station comme les statues de Valkyrie qui tournent la tête lorsqu'un train quitte la gare sont remarquables (et peu communs pour un wooden coaster). C'est donc dans une très bonne atmosphère et dans un train confortable qu'on s'installe pour rider Wodan. En haut du lift, un virage permet au train de prendre de la vitesse et permet de super bien anticiper la first drop. Celle-ci est plutôt bonne, voire carrément exceptionnelle lors de certains de mes rides. Le train acquiert une vitesse assez folle qu'il va conserver sur tout le parcours. Il n'y a pas vraiment d'airtimes, mais l'intensité est au rendez vous. Le train fait une démonstration de la puissance d'Odin en faisant trembler toute la structure sur son passage (ce qui impressionne d'ailleurs les visiteurs dès la file d'attente). Les vibrations sont présentes mais pour ce coaster en particulier ne sont pas gênantes. Bref, Wodan c'est un coaster punchy, avec une bonne intensité et une théma excellente, surtout pour un wooden ! Et pour cela, il mérite l'appellation de "chef d'oeuvre".
