First Drop Theming Masterpiece

Black Mamba is an excellent attraction with probably my second favourite first drop (just behind Troy). Black Mamba also features X very whippy inversions. This is defenitely a back-row ride. You get the greatest amount of forces here. The line never gets long. On my 3 day visit, the line didn't exceed 20 minutes, while FLY, Taron and River Quest regularly had a 40 to even 50 minutes waiting time. Black Mamba has by far the most beautiful queue I've ever seen, being an african jungle featuring a bridge, african buildings and waterfalls. The ride also interacts with the queue a lot giving great visuals for the people waiting. This ride is defenitely a must-ride when visiting Phantasialand, especially because it's never a long wait. Even if the line were to be 30 minutes, I'd say it would still be worth it. Good luck batteling the Black Mamba!

Theming Masterpiece Duration

FLY is an absolutely perfect attraction: It has launches, It has some decent drops, it's forcefull, it has whippy inverions, It's absolutely stunning (this also counts for not only Rookburgh, but the whole park). This ride has very intuitive restraints. I've heard that restraints were big issues on B&M flying coasters, but these new Vekoma ones are very easy. This ride is defenitely a back-row ride, giving some great airtime in that row, which is a very unique experience while in a flying position. This ride shares the longest lines with Taron (and Chiapas/River Quest on a hot day), but it's still a must-ride when visiting Phantasialand. Lines don't get particularly long in Phantasialand, but 30 minutes for FLY is a regular. DON'T wait for the front row, it will add a whopping 100+ minutes to your waiting time, even when it looks like the front-row-line is empty. Good luck with flying!

Launch Fun Intensity Too short Capacity

Waited over two hours for this bad boy. Totally worth it, but my parents and sister would say otherwise.

Airtimes First Drop Lap Bar

Blows Superman at SFNE out of the water.

First Drop Theming Smoothness Too short

Love the last airtime hill before the brakes, the first drop is always good as well. Could use some more inversions and a longer layout tho.

First Drop Pace Fun Rattle

Excellent first drop. First air time hill and the turn around are excellent. 2nd half of the layout is a little sluggish at the start of the day but once it warms up it's much better. Flew a few places up my list after a ride later in the day. As others have said. There was a lot of rattling which is strange considering it's only a couple of years old. It's really bad towards the back, At least on the train we had (1 train ops when I went). Front row didn't have any rattle so I'd recommend a front row ride every time.

Capacity Inversions Fun Theming

Fun fact: the yellow train is heavier and goes a bit faster, also the back row is way better ride than front.

Intensity

Fun little forceful family suspended coaster with some nice turns

Airtimes

Besides the insane hill at the end it’s a pretty typical and relaxed mine train but that kink on the ejectohhh hill is very strong

Theming Nice surprise! Fun

This easily my favorite mine train with some fast and lateral filled downhill turns and cool terrain usage. The ending lift hill is weird but cool and the ride is overall fun.
