Silver Star • Europa Park

Airtimes Capacity Fun Rattle

Silver Star is a great and underrated ride in my opinion! The first drop and the camelbacks deliver sustained floater airtime. You even get ejector on the drops of the MCBR and the helix. The valleys can rattle a little bit in the back but I recommend the front anyway because you really feel the speed there.

Airtimes First Drop Smoothness Theming Discomfort

Great ride that provides some excellent floater airtimes, but unfortunately I got stapled on both of my rides, so that may have effected the experience slightly. Nevertheless, the first drop is amazing, and probably the best part of the ride is that drop off of the MCBR, because that offers a (very small) moment of ejector, and the twists into the brake run are just great. Quite a smooth ride, but with a noticeable rattle the further back you go. The inside queue has some really cool theming, with the whole Mercedes theme. However, the outside queue is just cattle pen after cattle pen. Second best ride in the park, only after Blue Fire for me. It is a car park coaster, but it does have a car theme, so I don’t know if that was intentional or not, but it could have been better themed on the ride itself, especially because it’s at Europa-Park.

Airtimes First Drop Intensity

For me Silver Star offers one of the best airtimes in europe, due to its shell-B&M restreaints and nice pace. I love this coaster. It will never get old.

Lap Bar Harness Duration Rattle Disappointing! Airtimes

Sometimes this coaster has days where it gives good and amazing airtime, and then there are days like today. It has really weak airtime and it doesn't do anything for me as of now. Maybe it will get better, but I don't have high hopes. The ride also has a noticeable rattle in the valleys (especially in that first drop Valley). I would really like to love this coaster, but it sadly falls flat for me. The 2nd half is the only good part that saves this coaster.

Capacity Comfort Duration Theming

Among many enthusiasts, this B&M hyper coaster is seen as boring. I personally still really like it because it's a very long ride, seats and restraints are comfortable and due to the moderate intensity, it is simply enjoyable for everyone. After the block brakes, there are two stronger airtime moments, which are almost flojector - and the S-curve finale is a very elegant ending for such a coaster. Especially night rides during christmas season over an illuminated park are amazing! Another advantage is the impressing capacity, with three large trains and quick dispatches, so waiting time is mostly moderate for a coaster of this size. The only downside is that this coaster is one of the least themed rides at this park, the Mercedes Benz hall doesn't really match with the French section of the park. But overall, this is the second best coaster at Europa Park after Wodan!

Airtimes Pace Theming

Great ride for people who love BM hypers but it's one of the weaker ones. Also theming is very strange and it's surrounding's are literally a car park

First Drop Comfort Airtimes

Doesn't live up to its reputation. Floaters are rather boring - and most of them simply too slow. First drop is great, but after that, it basically becomes a snoozefest.

First Drop Lap Bar Pace Dead spots

A good hyper coaster that could have been a very good or an excellent one. The layout is attractive and the lift hill is impressive. In spite of a good pace, this coaster lacks of originality and airtimes. It's a bit too smooth for an hyper coaster.

Quirky last turn! First turn with top speed is a little discomforting.

Not my kind of ride at all but still fun

Silver Star is sadly the roughest B&M I've ridden. Pretty much all spots with positive G's have a strong rattle. But the airtime doesn't suffer from this. All the hills have floater airtime, so don't expect some crazy ejector. The trains themself are very comfortable.

Comfort Smoothness Duration Airtimes

Don't get me wrong. Silver Star has a lot of airtime, but almost in every cases it is just floater, not ejector. It is the only con this roller coaster has. It is very comfortable, very smooth and the ride is really long. My favorite part of the ride is the drop right after midcourse. The best place to sit is in the back row.

First Drop Comfort Fun

As all B&M Hypers very enjoyable, comfortable seating, no rattle (only a bit on the first curve up after the first drop), amazing first drop, typical out and back layout, airtime was a bit missing though, very fast and intense curves at the end. Theming was only in the station and queue line. There is also never long waiting, since the trains hold a large capacity. Thrill: 4/5

First Drop Capacity Duration

Surprisingly good ride. Some pretty decent airtime in the back row, especially the first two drops after the MCBR.

Capacity Comfort Duration Theming

Very underrated ride with a good first drop and long layout. The first is good but the second one is where its at. During the Winter season I had my best rides on it with the trims not hitting at all sometimes.

Airtimes Capacity Fun

A criminally underrated and very reridable hyper, I didn’t find one hill without airtime - you even get whipped out your seat flying through the MCBR. There’s a rough spot at the bottom of the first drop but it’s pretty smooth besides that.

Comfort Fun Theming Disappointing!

Being this my first hypercoaster, it disappointed me. The drop was not nearly as impressive as I had expected, and the airtimes, although fun, weren't that good. Also, the theming is one of the worst in the park, specially for me, as I don't like cars. Just a dull queue with a couple of automobiles and some pictures. The ride itself isn't decorated whatsoever, and it just flies through the hideous parking! On the contrary, the trains were comfortable, and as typical for B&M, the four-people-per-row disposition offers a high capacity, which, combined with the park's great ops that manage to keep three trains moving without almost any wating, reduces the queue times a great deal. However, the coaster itself is pretty bland, and the layout, unoriginal, just one hill after another. I felt that after a couple of hills, none of them provided any new experience, and as all the air was floater, the pace was quite improvable.

Propably the worldst biggest family coaster.

Airtimes Comfort Fun

Not anything wrong with it, it just isn't good enough to deserve a 10/10 (It can be disappointing before it has warmed up). So easy to re-ride (Especially with those stellar operations) and the layout doesn't have any dead spots. Extremely comfortable trains that didn't staple me.

Ahh you gotta love SilverStar! Once the tallest in Europe is not a bad title to have ;) It looks epic towering over the skyline of EP. I remember when it first opening being soo impressed by it (I was pretty young) but I still love it, soo much fun everytime, I could sit on it all day ! Theming is alright.. Not too keen on the video being played on the main screen in the queue line now.. Not the best interview from Lewis Hamilton .. Any one else remember the song that used to play in the station? "The silver, silver staaar.. the Silver silver staaar" hahaa must have drove the staff mad ! But yeah.. SilverStar is still awesome ! Edit July 19': I've been back to EP a few times recently with it being my home park.. and I still love this coaster! No it's not the best of its kind, not the most intense but its just soo much fun ! Big smiles all the way and its deff a back row ride for me :-)

Airtimes Location Comfort Disappointing!

Had really high hopes for this: but, i ended up not really liking it. Probably due to the fact that i only rode this one time and got stapled on it, but i will have to ride it again, kinda.

We personally love B&M Hypers. Good floaters on the first drop. It isn't very intense

Love the floating airtime! In Europe this is still one of the largest coasters. Very smooth ride.
