    Airtimes First Drop Intensity

    In my opinion, Orion is by far my favorite giga coaster I’ve ridden. It’s a really intense ride and it also features strong airtime moments. My favorite part is probably the first drop in the back row because you get sustained ejector air going down that drop. I also like the helix before the final hill because it’s super intense and I greyed out. However, I prefer the front row for the intensity because you feel the airtime and the other forces more than you do in the back row. Overall, Orion is a really fun coaster that packs some strong airtime and some really intense moments. It is also a great fit for Kings Island!

    I rode it like 15 times in a row in the rain since there wasn't a line and we loved it THAT much!

    First Drop Fun Smoothness

    Since this coaster recieved shiny new trains, the ride experience is now much smoother than before. Besides that, Alpina Bahn has never been a bad ride: The first drop is especially in the back surprisingly whippy, the big hill provides some nice little floater airtime and the rest of the classic layout is also great fun with good forces. Additionally, the overall appearance is impressive, there is even some light theming. To sum things up, I can strongly recommend Alpina Bahn - one of the largest and best travelling rollercoasters!

    Nice surprise! Comfort Fun

    Nice spinner for the whole family: smooth, comfortable and nicely themed station and cars. But with two people versus an empty row, the ride can get much more spin :)

    Masterpiece Intensity Layout Harness

    The best travelling coaster out there. First of all, the overall appearance of this coloss is stunning and it looks fantastic with those five loops resembling the Olympic rings. The only major downside of this coaster are the rather narrow trains and the weird restraints which are not really comfortable, but the ride itself is awesome: it's intense, forceful and really long. Aditionally, it runs pretty smooth! I love Olympia Looping and ride it everytime I get the chance to, who knows how long this beauty is still remaining to us? UPDATE August 2021: In Luxembourg, this ride was unfortunately surprisingly rough (even in second row), maybe it depends on the trains and if warmed up...

    First Drop Intensity Intensity

    This ride is incredibly intense, easily the most intense coaster I’ve been on. I loved it, but if you’re someone who is still getting into coasters, hold off on this one for now. It’s awesome and tons of fun, but you need to work up to it.

    Theming Launch Smoothness Too short

    Superman deserves the tallest and fastest to be named after him. While this is taller and faster than most other rides in the world, it could be better. I’ve only ever been launched backwards, maybe I’d enjoy it more if I was facing forward.

    First Drop Nice surprise! Ejectors

    Similar story with Cat-o-Pillar; first drop in the back gives a good pop of borderline ejector airtime then the rest of the layout just kinda, yeah. I like the little dip before the main drop too. (I think I'm too easily amused by these types of things but I don't think that's a bad thing; all I know is that it could've been straight track and I'm glad it wasn't.)

    Lap Bar Duration Dead spots

    I straight up do not remember a minute of this ride. The turnaround at the top of the lift is good, ..., .....? I don't remember it being rough or anything at all, just kinda, rode it and moved on. Admittedly this was pre-enthusiast so I don't know if I still hold this position towards the ride.

    Nice surprise! Pace Layout

    The interaction with the rapids is great, unique layout, has good speed and is just way too much fun in general.
