Coaster reviews

Disappointing! Discomfort

When we went on it was a walk-on. At first that seemed like a good thing because this is hardly a memorable ride. After the backward part I felt slightly sick. And then (because there was nobody waiting) operations thought to do us a favour to let it ride a second round! Needless to say I was NOT amused, even the forward part increased my nausea. I'm sure to skip this one the next time I visit Phantasialand.

Comfort Intensity

I guess I'm just not so keen on inverted coasters. But this one is perhaps the smoothest I've ridden. But after I felt slightly nauseous, I suppose because you never see where you're going.

Comfort Smoothness Ejectors Dead spots

I had really high expectations for Taron, apparently too high because the first ride in the morning it just didn't live up to those expectations. Don't get me wrong, it's a great ride with some good airtime moments and some whippy turns, and both launches are great, but it's just not as spectacular as I had hoped for. We rode it again late in the afternoon and then it felt a lot better, it had become noticeably faster and it was a lot punchier. But it's easily the best coaster in the park, and maybe I'm just too critical...

Fun Intensity Duration Lap Bar

We rode this 2 times. Our first ride was in the back part of the train and it totally exceeded expectations. With 3 lift hills it's a long ride and compared to other mine trains it's the best I've ridden so far. The second ride later in the day was near the front which was not so much fun, you're going over the hills at slow speed and only speeds up when you're well over them.

Theming Smoothness Discomfort

First of all, the position your body is in was for me a real gamebreaker. I'm tall (1,94) and not very slender so I felt like I was lying on my stomach. Also because you're looking up all the time, my neck hurt a bit. But apart from that, this is a pretty good ride! My first ride of the day was in the morning in front row and it was amazing! The constant near-misses you experience are great. I rode it a second time later in the day and we ended up in the back row. More G's which also meant more discomfort and I didn't enjoy it quite as much (perhaps also caused by the fact that before, we rode the Crazy Bats VR experience which made me slightly nauseous).

Launch Headbanging Discomfort

I'm sure the ride would have been enjoyable if it wasn't so damn painful. I sat in the middle which I heard was smoother but even this was nearly unbearable.

Smoothness Theming Pointless

What even was this ride? Just terrible. Could see the track... seeing the station as you go vaguely nearby is not a good look. The video sections are terrible. Like some bad projector screen. Story was incomprehensible to a non-spanish speaker. Gave it 1 star as the other people in the carriage seemed to like it.

Airtimes Comfort Fun Reliability

This ride is never open but when it is its a ton of fun. In my opinion its one of the more comfortable rides at the park but that's not saying much.

Rattle Discomfort Lap Bar

They just did some updating to those ride and is now called the "Twister III" I thought this meant they would fix some of its bigger flaws like how old the wood is and how much it throws you around. After one ride today I and my partner were sick. I could hear other people on the ride complaining just as much. The wood is broken in many places and feels very unsafe. I used to love this coaster but until they update it I don't think I'd feel safe riding again.

Theming Capacity Rattle Discomfort Lap Bar

Rode 2 times, first row and last row, didn't make much of a difference imho. It's relatively intense for being a family coaster, but also randomly slows to a crawl on various spots. But it sadly has lots of shaking, a bad shared lap bar and lots of discomfort due to the awful restraint/seat/everything. And I just felt bad and a bit dizzy after the ride, which does not happen at all for me with other rides (e.g. Taron). I wish I hadn't ridden it at all. And it's also a very, very long ride, which would normally be great, but in this case I wished both times that it would be over already. I loved the rest of Phantasialand, this was the only bad part for me.
