Achterbahn Rezensionen

Thematisierung Sanftheit

This older B&M was such a fun thrill to ride and very smooth at 29 years old. The theming was also great around it. I think the amazing thing to me was how like an RMC layout this ride has with lots of less forceful but fun and crazy intense inversions and twists. You look at the track and think it will give you a headache and then it just delivers a smooth fun ride. I wish more B&Ms were this good.

Rütteln

I had others at the park say they loved this ride but for me it had nothing of value and plenty of rattle to dislike. A single rail coaster is a gimmick, not an innovation.

Ejectors

I rode it a night and it was a lot of fun, I liked how they turned the racing coaster into a two-loop race with different courses each time. This just didn’t make much of an impression on me for some reason. I think the lower height RMCs don’t do much for me. They’re still fun but not a top 20 coaster.

It’s not really memorable, it’s sort of a small family coaster with some theming and a light launch at the beginning. I don’t love the helix to start the ride and overall the feeling is sort of jerky.

Komfort Spaß

The reviews on here for Racer 75 were not great but when I rode it I was blown away with how smooth and fun this ride is. I love the straight out and back format, though they were only using the right side. Give it a ride in the last row.

Meisterwerk

Anaconda is a product of its time. The front row gave me a weird sideways rattle coming off the first drop into the loop. The back row was night and day with much more smooth ride and more natural movement through even the second half that seems a bit unevenly paced. My guess is that the brake run midway is nearly stopping the train much more than originally intended to minimize complaints about roughness. I really hope they don’t get rid of this ride just because it’s a link to a specific time that is gone. It oozes 80s/90s charm in its station and overall design with the loud clanking of the lift chain and the scaffolding support structure and the unpolished hand-designed track sections that don’t smoothly mesh. Am I nostalgic, yes, but you’ll regret it when these Arrows are gone.

It’s probably the best wild mouse I’ve ridden but it’s not amazing.

Rütteln

Initially I was glad the park took a chance on this rare type of coaster but after finishing the ride I thought it was mostly a wasted opportunity. I’m almost certain they could do something more interesting than this. There’s just not much to it so it ends up being a kiddy/family coaster.

Komfort

It’s a good smooth B&M floorless looper. The first drop and vertical loop are the best. It’s fun to compare this to Anaconda at the same park because they both try to do something similar. This even has corkscrews at the end. I rarely love a B&M but at least this one was good.

First Drop

This corkscrew is a copy of the others. I haven’t ridden one in a minute so I forgot what it’s like. I always like the solid feeling of the Arrow train and how it grips the track. The track itself has the usual weird glitch that RMC has tried its best to avoid. Entering the corkscrew after the drop, the car tips sideways and then remains sideways as you dip down and then up for the corkscrew and right there I watched people in the train do that fun little Arrow jump in their seats. I’m glad they keep this one running after all these years but it was getting really rusty.

This coaster is a basic but good wild mouse that whips you around turns quickly and does a few awkward dips. It’s not great but the people riding it were enjoying it.

Spaß

This is basically a good family/mine train ride with a strong Japanese design flair and I love that it weaves through the trees. It’s actually smooth and another delightful smaller coaster with a ton of unique charm.

Komfort

This is another of the park’s older smaller coaster collection in the middle and it was an absolute delight. Very smooth and good amount of force to it.

Spaß

I really enjoyed this older launched coaster. It was unique in that you launch out of the station, travel through a vertical loop and up a spike, then backwards through the station and up another spike and then it’s back to the station where the ride ops had to drag the coaster into position. It was comfortable and fun.

Schoßbügel Intensität

I was so excited to ride this Morgan Giga but I think Intamin does this better. The problem with this ride is it’s dropping you and then snapping you back up too quickly so you get too much positive-g force. This gave me a bad headache and was a one-and-done but I’m glad I got the credit. The bunny hops didn’t do much for me either. I would rather ride the other smaller Morgans.

Thematisierung

It’s a fun mostly smooth steel mine train ride with excellent theming.

Thematisierung

It’s very dark with just a starfield at the beginning and then I couldn’t see anything the rest of the ride so I was going based only on feel. It was a twisty ride that felt like it went for a long time with a bit of jerky motion here and there but good overall. The best part of the ride is the theming inside.

First Drop

This is a fun family launch coaster that is smooth and comfortable. The launch is not very intense and the first hill and drop are the best part with some fun inversions.

Airtimes

Jack Rabbit looks really short and small from the front but has that hidden valley that it drops down into giving it some fun surprises.

First Drop

Wild Eagle is intense, I grayed out on the first couple drops. I tend to find B&M loopers to be too forceful but this was still fun and very smooth with comfortable restraints and no worries about head banging. It also uses the hilly terrain really well since you’re in a secluded wooded area.

Spaß

It’s not a coaster if we’re being honest. It is a train on rails with a dip here or there but it’s really a musty smelling heavily-themed story ride with lots of animatronics like you find at Disney. I think it’s cute and worth a ride when at Dollywood.

Spaß Unangenehm

This ride looks like a boring old coaster they keep around for the memories and then you ride it and it constantly surprises. This might be my favorite wooden coaster layout with all the sharp sudden lateral turns you don't see coming. I'm not sure about airtimes but the layout definitely keeps you wondering whats coming next. Like any wooden coaster it can be a little rough but it was acceptable to me.

Enttäuschend!

This ride is forgettable. It's not as fun as a lot of older small wooden coasters with an out and back layout. It seems like a missed opportunity to make a memorable wooden coaster.

Komfort Enttäuschend!

After I waited forever in line for this sad little thing, I couldn't help but imagine how much better this ride would be with an actual story and theme. Like, just take this dark building and throw out the tiny coaster and put a story-based ride in its place about the Prince Ludwig and how he scares his subjects or something. Spend actual effort on theming and make this worth riding.

Spaß Unangenehm

I’m going to say it’s a bit uncomfortable but I still enjoy riding these Arrow coasters that are a blast from the past. A lot of these Arrows are slowly being removed one by one so I hope this remains.

Airtimes Komfort Spaß

Most smooth and comfortable wooden coaster I’ve been on. And it was intense and still had that wooden vibration and sense of being out of control. Ride it in the front and it feels like you’re out of your seat half the time during the turns.

Airtimes Ejectors

The lift hill might be the most subversive ride element I’ve experienced. The way they play on your expectation that a slow lift chain is going to drag you up the lift hill and instead all hell breaks loose and it just keeps building in intensity until the end. It’s just so much fun, so many ejectors. The ride ops were not great since they were blocking people from just entering the station and choosing their row but its a minor quibble. The day I was there a major thunderstorm came through and ‘Lightning Rod’ was struck by lightning (which closed it for an hour or so), go figure.

Spaß Intensität Ejectors

Simply amazing ride. It's so unique with the zig-zag split stacked lift hills and the giant double helix wrapping around the curving station. It's also set in a thick forest of trees so you sort of feel like it's built into the landscape. Probably my favorite wooden coaster.

First Drop Spaß Ejectors

This is one of my favorites. It's just so much fun and I feel like I'm in a fighter jet doing crazy maneuvers. It's an incredible rush.

Spaß

It's a fun little ride that I loved when I first rode it as a kid in the 90s.
