Black Mamba • Phantasialand

Theming Intensity Smoothness

This ride is often overshaded by Taron, but it is still a fantastic inverter: It is glossy smooth and very comfortable, the inversions are great fun (especially the Zero-G-Roll) and the turns provide really strong G-forces. Theming is extremely immersive and the whole area looks absolutely gorgeous. I also really like the station which is basically a cave built underground, which gets dark and plays very loud drumming music everytime a train dispatches. This feature raises the adrenaline level, especially if you don't know about it!

Theming Location Intensity

Insanely good B&M invert. The theming is really well executed and its amazing how you can barely see the ride from anywhere. Also I find it amazing how intense of a ride they can pack into the 26m height. The last helix is amazing and just as good as the enclosed brakerun in a cave.

Inversions Intensity Duration

Very good coaster. This the best inverted B&M I've ridden so far. The intensity, the layout and the theming are great. The restrains could be improved

Theming Inversions Intensity Rattle Headbanging

Very good ride with excellent Theming, but Headbanging especially in the Backrow!

Theming Inversions Smoothness Too short Dead spots

Very intense B&M coaster, great themeing at a good pace. - Seems a bit too short at times though.

Theming Smoothness Capacity

Having only ridden a vekoma inverted coaster, I was afraid for a headache after this one. But this coaster is so smooth, and the near misses with the scenery made it an amazing thrill ride. No headaches here!

Theming Inversions Intensity

Probably the best smaller-scale B&M invert in the world. The theming is world-class, with an incredible amount of fantastic near misses. While I generally would prefer a larger-scale invert like Katun, for an invert of this size I think it is perfect. The layout to me does not feature a particular highlight, but flows very well and is consistently extremely forceful. Slamming into the pitch black indoor brake run is another fantastic effect. Best experienced in the front row, though the drop is fantastic for its size in the back.

Is ok, funny

Theming Pace Intensity Pointless

Great ride the ending felt a bit pointless an extra inversion would have been nice. Brilliant theming.

First Drop Comfort Duration Rattle Disappointing! Intensity

Very shaky for a B&M and lacks intensity after the first inversion.

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!)

Intensity,phenomenal theming,great pacing - What's not to love ?

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.
