Achterbahn Rezensionen

Tempo Intensität Layout

A raw, powerful wooden coaster, RFII packs the punch of a pre-depression John Miller creation with the smoothness that comes from modern technology and a devoted upkeep team at Waldameer. The speed and intensity are so incredibly out of place at this family-oriented park, but I can't complain about walking on a half dozen times for less than admission to most parks.

Inversionen Tempo Layout

Moving efficiently from element to element, this ride turns you upside down smoothly early and often. The theming is well-placed, and the mist dispensers are welcome on a hot day. But the shining star of this ride was the zero G roll - the smooth rotation taken at the perfect speed to spin you without exerting any forces; this was the best-executed zero G roll I've ever experienced.

Airtimes Tempo Layout

The first ever B&M hyper is easily the best I've ridden. The smooth airtime was expected, but the forceful low turns surprised me. It packs more variety than any other "airtime machine" model I've been on.

Abschuss Rückhaltebügel Hangtime

The incredible hangtime on the JoJo roll, where I felt like I'd fall to the ground the first time I rode it, is a good indication for how the ride will go. It's far from a one trick pony, though, with a fantastic launch and a few solid moments of airtime.

Tempo Intensität Layout

When the launch and inversions are among the tamest parts of a ride, you've got a winner. The only dead spot in the intensity-packed layout is the S-curve at the former site of the ill-fated inline twist.

Intensität Layout Ejectors

The marquee to this ride is the sustained ejector air - the sound of upstop wheels permeates half the park - but the intense laterals into the banks of the twister section and the near misses with the structure that forced me to physically duck pushed this firmly into my top 5.

First Drop Tempo Layout

A relentless layout makes the wait for the metal detectors well worth it. A fun drop kicks this one off, but it's the laterals on the wave turn (which has no right to feel as enormous as it does) and the out-of-control airtime of the trick track double up that make this a world class ride.

Tempo Meisterwerk Intensität

From the dip out of the station to the themed brake run in the shed, this ride is relentless. The theming in the queue and on the lift hill is a nice added touch, but this ride's speed, airtime, laterals, and positive forces stand alone as an intense, exhilarating ride.

Tempo Meisterwerk Intensität

The airtime is exquisite and the pacing is tighter than any other coaster I've ridden - the only chance to breathe is the MCBR - but the best part of the ride is the absolute intensity, with laterals and ejector all over the layout.
