I love Mystic. Sure the theming could be better, but layout wise is my only concern. It's just airtime hill and airtime hill, whereas if you take something like Rengade at Valleyfair or something like Gold Striker, those have superior layouts and both have better pacing.

Gravity Group's second family woodie in France is a blast. Wood Express delivers an impressive amount of airtime, and keeps a good pacing throughout its layout. It rattles just a little enough to convey that appealing 'out of control' feeling so familiar with many great wooden coasters. The first drop was slightly not as exciting as I expected, and overall the ride also lacks a sustained airtime moment. Nevertheless, Wood Express is arguably second-to-none when it comes value-for-money for a ride of this size!

Go on a dead day, the ride ops will let you stay on the ride, stop complaining about the length. There isn’t a single element on this ride that feels boring or pointless. This is the second best RMC, with number one being the bae steel vengeance

Worth to be noted - I never rode the original Eurosat. Can Can Coaster, from a theming point of view, is a brilliant realisation that perfectly completes the now fully refurbished French zone of the park. The queue as well as the exterior aspect is spotless, full of details and references to other parks. Plus the theming of 'Le Moulin Rouge' in itself is very original. Onride, even though the coaster is smooth as butter, theming is bit cheaper - probably to suit Eurosat's original atmosphere, which is understandable but debatable. Overall, certainly a great family ride with an outstanding theming, but if it is as memorable an experience for guests as Eurosat used to be remains to be seen...

Hyperion provides an excellent mixture of diverse elements: an incredible first drop, both floater and sustained ejector airtime hills, fast transitions, two aggressive Stengel dives and a Twist and Dive element, which is definitely the highlight of the ride, as it combines excellent airtime with a quick inversion and it is taken at an incredible speed. Even though Hyperion uses a traditional chain lift, trains quickly reach the top of the first hill and keep the furious pace right until final brakes. Trains are very spacious and open, giving you an awesome sense of freedom. Taron-style restraints are very comfortable and nice theming definitely adds to the experience. The ride is smooth, although I could feel a minor rattle on the second airtime hill from time to time. While Hyperion is an intense ride, it definitely is not too intense, which is great because it makes you want to ride it over and over again. EDIT - after riding Hyperion more than 20 times I correct my rating and give it full 5 stars instead of 4.5. The ride is just pure fun and slight rattle in the back of the train is not enough to spoil it in my opinion.
