Der Schwur des Kärnan • Hansa Park

Theming Intensity Layout

I was stunned by this attraction: The overall apperance is just impressing, the theming is great and even the "pre-show" which decides your seat is a unique feature I had never seen before. But the ride itself is not less great: it is very forceful, fast and the layout is extremely variable, so there is no dead spot. There is a rattle, but it didn't bother me, I thought it even fitted to this relentless thrill machine (it is DEFINETELY NOT a "Family thrill ride", how the park once called it) After the final break run, the final inversion and helix are quite slow, so they seem a little pointless. But the rest of this coaster is absolutely amazing, it's one of my favourites in Germany!

Theming Pace Duration Capacity

Such an amazing ride! I loved every bit of it. I didnt think there was a rattle tho. It was really fast and an amazing front row coaster! The capacity is such a shame. I would love 20 rerides but it almost doenst make 20 rounds a day....

First Drop Nice surprise! Rattle Discomfort Intensity

I only liked the nice suprise in the building and the big drop. The rattle on the coaster was unpleasant at this speed. I tried front row and back row.

Der Schwur Des Karnan is an outstanding Coaster, with world class theming and intensity, with dashes of: Laterals, Hangtime, Ejector Airtime, and Pacing, All slapped together into insanity. The amazing theming is just the start, with an immersive story and great station, You then climb the vertical lift and :Spoilers: IT DROPS YOU BACKWARD 200FT. So after you've recovered from your panic attack you just had after re-climbing the lift, you crest over a 250ft, 90' twisted drop, pulling out at 5G. So as you rise 176ft into the non inverting sea serpent roll, while being blinded by the light. The Sea Serpent roll give good twisting floater. You fall down, with more G Force, into an insane over-bank into an insane transition - just as much whip as i305. You twist down into a 90' curve down into the low to the ground turn. You rise into a double transition and into a great Ejector hill, into another tight G Force turn. You then rise into a few twists, and into the breaks, but then :Spoiler, you enter a slow heartline roll, providing world class hangtime. This coaster provides insane intensity and great theming, and imo, a back row ride for the whip and intensity.

First Drop Lap Bar Intensity

Incredible ride, brilliant theming and that brief ejector hill into the brakerun is just fantastic! The entire ride is also enhanced by the ludicrously comfortable lapbars. Brilliant!

Lap Bar Nice surprise! Intensity Rattle

Oh Shit. Now that's some intense ride right there. The cue line in the castle is incredible, probably the best cue I've ever seen in a non-major-brand-park in Europe. Being chosen randomly for the rows adds to the excitement factor and I like it, though you should hope for front row! This is where the coaster packs the most punch after the drop. At first you are pulled up vertically into the tower, where a pre-show begins. Unfortunately, there is too much reverb to understand what is being said, which does take away from this part of the ride. You do the backwards drop (better than expected, but starting too soft for a real drop feeling) and then rise to the top and into the first drop. It is best experienced in the back, but isn't bad in the front either. Not my favourite drop, but very good for sure. You then shoot out into broad daylight getting some good Gs in the valley. As if that wasn't intense enough, we once had a ride where it had started to rain in the meantime and we were in pain because of the impact of the drops, which coincidentally was probably one of the most intense rides I have ever had. The heart-shaped element coming up next is great, the change of direction at the first peak being a violent highlight in the front left. The beginning of the low-to-the-ground-part that follows is my favourite part of the ride, it is stupidly intense. The one airtime hill in the layout also delivers. Unfortunately, the coaster slows down significantly in its final 300m or so, failing to give you that slamming-into-the-brakes kind-of euphoria. What follows is a very slow heartline roll in the dark (fun) and a surprising photo point, when you are basically already rolling back into the station. World-class ride with world-class theming and world-class intensity in its first two thirds. Ride is not supersmooth, but certainly fine. Amazing overall, the pre-show can get tiring when reriding.

Definitely a front row coaster!

Airtimes Theming Intensity Capacity

Kärnan is an extremely intense ride with great transitions and airtime. On top of that, having such a fantastic ride with such good theming is rare, making it a truly unique and exciting coaster.

Airtimes Masterpiece Intensity Rattle

So weird, yet exhilarating! Kärnan is really a one of a kind ride, very intense and relentless. It has several good pops of airtime, crazy snappy turns and an excellent drop to top it off!
