Black Mamba • Phantasialand

Inversions Masterpiece Intensity

The scenery, the ride, the intensity. I just love this ride.

Inversions Location Intensity

Phantasialand worked wonders with B&M to get this to fit in at all. Uses a narrower gauge track than many B&M's, which helps with the tight gaps and bends it has to negotiate. The trains are detectably narrower than other recent B&M's - but that's an incredibly picky point! Intensity is high and proximity effects abound. The pacing not quite so perfect as it's older brother Nemesis; the windy section at the end essentially an RCT-autocomplete to get home... But still, it's an incredible ride in a incredible park; that probably deserves more recognition overseas (memories of early 1990's school trips to Germany definitely do not echo what Phantasialand is now!)

Best themed inverted coaster

Theming Inversions Intensity Intensity

Absolutely great setting for the B&M inverter - which seems to hurl and burrow through the ground. Lots of near-miss effects. Unfortunately, for me, the coaster is a little bit too intense.

Theming Fun Intensity

Black Mamba is more intense than it seems. The interactions with the surrounding scenery is really impressive, and it is generally smooth. However, the layout isn't the most original and it lacks the "wow" factor other inverts have.
