This ride was a pleasant surprise: first of all, it has the "right" level of roughness for a classic wooden coaster which is loud, rustic and wild, but not in a displeasant way. I really appreciate the long and twisted layout which can lead to cool interactions with the adjacent "Tomahawk". The racing aspect is the icing on the cake, it provides great fun to both trains, you can fool around with the other riders on the lifthill and when both tracks separate and the trains head towards each other, it leads to a cool surprise effect. However, theming could have been done better and the Kumbak trains are a bit uncomfortable and appear quite outdated. Nevertheless, this coaster is loads of fun and when the rails are wet from the rain, it goes completely berserk!

It's a fun little ride, nicely integrated between its "wooden parents" and I really appreciate the idea of a wooden coaster for the youngest: albeit being completely family-friendly, is still has this typical woody feeling and is a great starting point for ongoing coasterfans. It also provides some fun to full-fledged enthusiasts, but beware: two adults side to side this Mini-llenium flyer train can be a bit narrow...

This weird mine train looks way better than it actually is: pretty boring and the narrow seats are not very comfortable. However, it is nicely themed, the interaction with the adjacent log flume is a fun gimmick and with three long trains on the track, it had a decent capacity.

Hmmm, difficult to rate this one: first of all, theming is done beautifully and the preshow with the quirky storyline is also very nice. Additionally, the launch is very powerful and the terrain-hugging layout is also very cool. However, the ride has a strong rattle throughout the whole layout which is a bit annoying on the inner seats and almost painful on the outer ones. The restraints are also rather uncomfortable, especially during the inversion. This bizarre ride has its strenghts and its flaws, but overall, it is alright.

I expected this coaster to be mediocre at best, but in fact, it was pretty disappointing: it looks really nice and impressing (besides of the god-awful color scheme of the trains), but the layout is very monotous: inversion after inversion, mixed with heavy positive G's - which quickly gets old. That alone might not sound too bad, but this coaster has a really nasty, headache-inducing rattle which, especially in combination with the bulky restraint, completely ruins the experience. Riding in the inner seats might help a little, but is still not a pleasant experience.

I expected this ride to be really good, but it was top notch: it might not be particularly intense, but is glossy smooth, extremely comfortable and offers an amazing experience in every seat. If you have a little bit of room between you and your restraint, the amount of airtime is extremely high. Yeah, it is mostly floater and a little flojector at the small speed hill, but is so enjoyable.The "awesome curve" (or whatever this large turnaround resembling a giant "&" is called) looks is very impressive both to look at and to ride - it is a more creative way for a switchback than your traditional horseshoe. Additionally, this coaster is beautiful to look at - the color scheme both of track and trains looks very elegant. There is some light theming, but it still looks pretty neat for a coaster of this size. I highly recommend this graceful coaster to every enthusiast - especially the airtime lovers!

Rode it as a travelling coaster at Cannstatter Wasen, Stuttgart and considered it as one of the best travelling rollercoasters: it was quite fun, with an interesting layout, a lot of spinning and the weird theming mix was a good laugh (I mean, the facade has a old western mine theming and in the inside, there were disco-like light effects and christmas trees :D)

My favorite coaster at Disneyland Park - it might not be very forceful or thrilling, but the overall experience was fantastic: first of all, it is a very long ride providing great fun for every age. The location on the island is stunning, but the biggest strength of Big Thunder Mountain is the beautiful theming: the mountain itself looks very impressing, but the Western buildings surrounding it are also pretty nice. There are many tunnels making the ride more diversified, the one housing the third lifthill with cool special effects is my favorite. Queues are often quite long (despite the high capacity due to five trains and a dual loading station), but they are definetely worth the experience!

Easily the worst coaster from both parks of Disneyland Paris: First of all, make sure to hit this coaster as early as possible (at best, right after coming off Crush's Coaster), because lines typically get way too long. The over the shoulder restraints (typically used on much more intense coasters like Desert Race for example) are completely pointless and kills every little bit of airtime you might get. Additionally, the ride cycle is very short - as soon as the car has reached the highest points, the ride is almost immediately slowed down. The tacky theming may be okay for the target audience, but I think it looks cheap. In my opinion, RC Racer doesn't fit in this park.

The ride itself has some nicely themed areas (although some parts are in a completely dark hall), runs pretty smooth for a Maurer and due to the moderate thrill level, it is fun for every age. On the other hand, theming is done rather poorly in the queueline and capacity is not suitable for this park. For enthusiasts, this ride is okay, but mostly not worth the horrendous queue times (mostly around 80-120 minutes during my visit at February 2022).

I rode this coaster twice during my visit: the first ride during noon was quite rough and I experienced quite some serious headbanging in the turns, while the second round was at about 8 pm shortly before closing time. This time, there was barely any headbanging and the ride felt faster - so I strongly recommend a night ride, the illuminated theming creates a nice atmosphere. The tight vertical loop is clearly the best part of the layout - it is taken very quickly while the rest of the layout is rather bland. Additionally, the trains are really uncomfortable and narrow.

For small children, this mild and neatly themed ride is a good choice. For credit counters, I can recommend the very last row which is faced backwards...

For small children, this mild and neatly themed ride is a good choice. For credit counters, I can recommend the very last row which is faced backwards - so you might get a tiny bit of extra thrill during this ride.

After all these negative reviews on the internet, the actual experience was better than I expected: Theming in the queue area and the station is really nice while the one during the ride is merely okay. A cool gimmick is the orchestral version of the former theme "In a second orbit" during the lift - and the French countdown as well as the Cancan playing during the ride is also quite fancy. I also can't understand people considering the new ride as "too tame" - it is definetely not as intense as the old Eurosat, but still good fun (it has even some small airtime moments) and now it runs absolutely smooth with comfortable trains. The Cancan coaster is different than its predecessor, but nevertheless a great family-friendly indoor ride.

This is a really cool and unique coaster - because of its quirkiness: it is basically a long upwards helix with another downwards helix wrapping around it. Sounds pretty boring at first, but it has some surprising drops in complete darkness and with oldschool light effects, a trashy movie projected onto the ceiling and an pumping synthiepop soundtrack this ride is a quite psychedelic experience. Additionally, the open bobsled-like cars provide much room and comfort, the ride runs very smooth and the sight of the absurdly long train winding up the spiral lift is ridiculous. Overall, I enjoyed this freaky experience more than I thought!

This powered coaster has a quite long and unusual layout with some unexpected moments, even with a slight burst of airtime. Setting above the lake is also pretty - overall, a nice family ride!

Albeit not being very intense, this coaster is just enjoyable: it has a nice layout with some airtime moments besides the fun inversions and it runs quite smooth, but also the seats and restraints are comfortable - I don't have a problem with the B&M vests. Theming is (considering this coaster is at Heide Park) also well done, especially the trains look really cool. I really like the atmospheric soundtrack creating a slightly eerie atmosphere. After Colossos, this is my second favorite coaster at Heide Park!

I absolutely adore this ride and could add many more pros to those three above! First of all, the theming of the area "Avalon" is really amazing, and this coaster has the most beautiful trains I've ever seen - how they shine in the sun, wow! Starting off with an impressing dive drop, the layout has everything from good coaster elements: some nice airtime, a helix with really high G-Forces and three inversions. This ride is quite intense, in the helix I experienced some mild greyouts, but in my opinion, it's still re-ridable due to its smoothness and overall high comfort. If you consider the development of this park from an indoor playground with a small kiddie coaster to a full-fledged amusement park with such a high-class-coaster like Fenix, this is really impressing - I am very curious what this park will look like in the future!

This is way better than the other wild mice travelling around: The two big drops pack a great punch, the hairpin turns seem to be faster than other comparable rides and the ride runs relatively smooth. Additionally, there is even a small funhouse parcours in the queue, which would be a nice addition when queueing at coasters in general :-)

The first drop, vertical loop and one particular helix are pretty intense, I even had a slight greyout. The rest of the layout has a quite slow pace, so it's quite dull and doesn't do anything for me, the barrel rolls are a little uncomfortable and besides that, the layout reminds a bit of the classic Wildcat/Zyklon coasters, which feels awkward with those wide trains and bulky restraints. Speaking of the vehicles, they are not really comfortable and appear quite chunky - and also the coaster itself doesn't look very nice.

In my opinion, waiting times of 20 Minutes or more are not worth for this coaster. The Swiss village looks very nice und the ride may be something special, but the actual experience is disappointing: it lacks in intensity and the actual "coaster section" is very short. Additionally, there is a decent rattle during the faster parts and the cars are a little uncomfortable, unless you share it with someone you really like ;-)

A short, but sweet family coaster with a decent layout, nicely themed trains and overall it's fun for all ages. Especially the first drop is in the back of the train surprisingly whippy and for a ride with a minimum height of only 1 meter, there are some good forces. The soundtrack on the lifthill is also quite neat and due to the location in a dead end of the park, waiting times are mostly not very high.

Among many enthusiasts, this B&M hyper coaster is seen as boring. I personally still really like it because it's a very long ride, seats and restraints are comfortable and due to the moderate intensity, it is simply enjoyable for everyone. After the block brakes, there are two stronger airtime moments, which are almost flojector - and the S-curve finale is a very elegant ending for such a coaster. Especially night rides during christmas season over an illuminated park are amazing! Another advantage is the impressing capacity, with three large trains and quick dispatches, so waiting time is mostly moderate for a coaster of this size. The only downside is that this coaster is one of the least themed rides at this park, the Mercedes Benz hall doesn't really match with the French section of the park. But overall, this is the second best coaster at Europa Park after Wodan!

A short, but powerful ride that keeps its pace from the drop to the brakerun: The dive drop provides cool hangtime and the micro bunny is a surprising airtime moment in the hole - combined with some fog effects, this looks really cool. The rest of the short, but sweet layout is quite forceful and the final brakes come pretty abruptly. Theming is done very well, especially the queue line and station house with the Zero-G-Roll look fantastic. The ride even has an own Wildwest-movie style soundtrack by IMAScore, which is extremely catchy. Typically for a Mack Product, the seats and restraints are very comfy and the ride runs quite smooth - all together, a really great overall experience for this small park!
