Fun Too short
Its hard to rate this coaster for me. It was the first coaster I went as a kid back in the days (maybve July 2000-2001) and the first time I've ridden such a fast, high coaster let alone inversions. It was a dark ride for me anyway, because I clearly remember I closed my eyes throughout the ride. Honestly, for its build date I find the lay out and elements actually quite good. Arrow/Verkoma did fine on this one. Especially if you compare this coaster and its track/rail design to its newer ones. I'd recommend this for people who want to experience just that little more, like a step up from family coasters.

Fun Intensity Harness Discomfort Layout
It’s a classic. But the restraints are just simply painful for a guy 200 cm tall.

Inversions Intensity Smoothness Theming Airtimes Layout
The makeover in 2018 really helped the ride. It’s very smooth despite it’s intensity. The loops provide a ton of positive G’s, which can lead to greyouts and blackouts, especially at the bottom of the second loop. The corkscrews, meanwhile, are packed with a surprising amount of lateral G’s. The theming, on the other hand, leaves a lot to be desired, considering the park’s current standards. The layout is also a bit outdated at this point, and the drop gives pretty much no airtime, which is a bit of a letdown

Pace Fun
Brother of Shaman in Gardaland. A good family inverted coaster as I would call it. One con - I don't like, that I have to take my bag on the ride.

Inversions Smoothness Theming
The first coaster of Efteling was a Vekoma double loop corkscrew and it was at that time a terrifying rollercoaster. Many years later and a referbishment on the track it's the smoothest wat i've done. But the rest of this park is beautifull themed to fairy's and this is just a coaster without music and thats to bad.

Smooth but kinda forceless

It's a very classic coaster so you can't compare it to newer coasters in my opinion. Back in the days this ride was the longest coaster in all of europe. Nowadays the ride is kinda dull and seems unoriginal, but it's still fun. The ride experience is enjoyable and because of the retracking and the vest restraints it's an enjoyable experience, unlike Big Loop for example.

Discomfort Tear it down! Layout
I never liked this model, even in the POVs looks boring. The trains, as most of old Vekoma ones, are really uncomfortable, too small and have horrible harnesses. The layout is, above all, unoriginal: two loopings, a boring turn, two corkscrews and that's all (well, there is an helix, but it's quite slow and pointless). It was not even fun, and it looks ugly from outside. In light of Efteling willingness to replace old rides (like Pegasus or Bob), I hope they remove this monster as soon as possible.

This ride is a little better than what it was before, little more smooth, but it is still an old and quite standard looping coaster.

This ride really surprised me. I didn't expect it to be that smooth. The loops are very forceful and the rest of the ride is really fun!
