Nice surprise! Fun Hangtime Too short
This is a great ride that should absolutely be the next big clone. The backwards section is wild and the hang time after the third launch is so good. Also the two drops are stellar.

Airtimes Location Layout Rattle Disappointing! Discomfort
I had such high hopes for this legendary wooden coaster but after the section of titan track the ride got very rough. Obviously the layout is great and setting is gorgeous but one train ops and a rough ride really bring this coaster down a bit.

Theming Lap Bar Fun Dead spots Intensity
This had some lovely theming, with a scare maze type trip through the corridor before and after the coaster. Shame the scary adult theming is wasted on a slow, family friendly rollercoaster. A wasted opportunity. Still, a fun experience and worth a re-ride.

Theming Pace Intensity Rattle Capacity
Wow, what an experience! The theming inside the queue is so cool that it distracts from the slow moving queue, but it gets even better! There is a nice pre show before you board, although seating selection is random. The ride has a vertical lift hill inside this giant castle tower where you climb up with a comfy lap bar, except you freefall backwards! You twist down an incredible vertical drop full of ejector airtime into a non inverting sea serpent roll which provides amazing positives, airtime and laterals! There are a few fast banked turns which have amazing whip as well as 2 powerful airtime hills full of ejector! Every twist and turn is paced perfectly which makes them feel like they aren't boring. You think the ride is over, but it throws in a really slow heartline roll to add excitement! There's a noticeable rattle, however it's fine for a Gerstlauer. The Oath of Kärnan is an absolute masterpiece which shouldn't be missed!

Layout Ejectors Hangtime Capacity
Taiga is an absolutely brilliant ride! It includes 2 great launches, powerful ejector airtime moments, high intensity, great pacing and whip through twists, fantastic hangtime filled inversions, one of the most beautiful and comfortable trains created by Intamin and nice theming with a great soundtrack! All of these great things form a ride experience like no other with a beautiful layout, and don't forget the great location on a hillside! Only problem really is operations aren't amazing. Definitely worth travelling to Linnanmäki and Finland in general just to experience this coaster.

Rattle Tear it down! Pointless
Hilariously terrible. Maybe I sat on a bad wheel seat or something, but this ride was rougher than any other coaster I've ever been on. The layout is stupid and the only airtime I got was being flung up by the ride's jackhammering. Still though, I had a smile when getting off simply because of how flabbergasted I was of how rough it was. Worse than time warp

Fun Layout Rattle
This was my first "big" coaster when I rode it as a kid. It scared me to death. After all these years, it still holds up pretty well. The helix at the end has gotten pretty rough, though.

First Drop
This corkscrew is a copy of the others. I haven’t ridden one in a minute so I forgot what it’s like. I always like the solid feeling of the Arrow train and how it grips the track. The track itself has the usual weird glitch that RMC has tried its best to avoid. Entering the corkscrew after the drop, the car tips sideways and then remains sideways as you dip down and then up for the corkscrew and right there I watched people in the train do that fun little Arrow jump in their seats. I’m glad they keep this one running after all these years but it was getting really rusty.

This coaster is a basic but good wild mouse that whips you around turns quickly and does a few awkward dips. It’s not great but the people riding it were enjoying it.

Fun
This is basically a good family/mine train ride with a strong Japanese design flair and I love that it weaves through the trees. It’s actually smooth and another delightful smaller coaster with a ton of unique charm.
