Does RMC not know actual living human beings have legs or do they specifically design their trains for water dummies? I thought their regular trains were bad, but these take the cake. The extremely awkward seating position (feet out, knees in) combined with the harness / lapbar make this into Hip Displasia - The Ride. The twisted first drop is a lot of fun and the interaction with the Chill-side is cool, but on the second day of operation the trains were only synched up half of the time. Smoother than Chill, but still not as smooth as you'd expect from a new coaster. It's an ok ride, but I won't go out of my way to get on it again.

Other than providing the fun dual element with the Thrill-side of YoY, the family friendly Chill sides doesn't do much. It feels slow, there is no airtime to speak of and the seats are so awkward and ...

Other than providing the fun dual element with the Thrill-side of YoY, the family friendly Chill sides doesn't do much. It feels slow, there is no airtime to speak of and the seats are so awkward and uncomdortable Especially towards the front of the train, there is a nasty rattle. Kind of pointless, even for a family ride.

Nothing negative to say about this amazing ride. From first drop to finish, non stop fun. It's a family coaster, but pretty intense, especially in the valleys. The final banked turn with the inversion...

Nothing negative to say about this amazing ride. From first drop to finish, non stop fun. It's a family coaster, but pretty intense, especially in the valleys. The final banked turn with the inversion straight after it might be my fav element on any coaster. The theming (notice the train has the large spear on it the 7 Schwaben use to go after "the monstrosity"), story and interaction with Volldampf make this an almost perfect ride. One of the two trains has a bit of a rattle near the back, the other runs smoothly. I hope Vekoma gets to install many of these around the world. They should do a deal where they replace SLC's for these at a discount, as a form of apology. ;-)

A fun if unremarkable wild mouse, historically important since its the first Gerstlauer. The theming is cool, with the coaster going around and through the castle, the helixes are pretty forceful. For a taller, bigger guy like myself, the trains are rather uncomfortable.

The ride looks the part, but it really doesn't do much. Too slow, no forces, no airtime. It doesn't rattle as such, it's more of a shake. The track seems to be too wide for the trains. Pro-tip: sit in...

The ride looks the part, but it really doesn't do much. Too slow, no forces, no airtime. It doesn't rattle as such, it's more of a shake. The track seems to be too wide for the trains. Pro-tip: sit in the middle row of the 3 row carts. That way, you don't sit above the wheels and the shake is a lot less violent. The tunnel with the smoke and the show scene at the start are fun. I did a night ride during the Halloween event and that made the ride more enjoyable. The first time I visited Tripsdrill I hated this ride, but I enjoyed it a lot more during my last trip. Kids seem to enjoy it a lot. It's an intimidating looking coaster that is actually pretty mild, so a good entry coaster for younger riders.

This is absolutely my kind of coaster. Snappy launch, airtime, hangtime, great inversions, not too intense but intense none the less. I adore this ride. There is a bit of a dead spot in the transition...

This is absolutely my kind of coaster. Snappy launch, airtime, hangtime, great inversions, not too intense but intense none the less. I adore this ride. There is a bit of a dead spot in the transition from the mid course to the finale, but than that dive loop into the tunnel whips you out of your seat, getting you ready for the final inversion to do it again. First row, outer right is the seat to be for maximum whip. The cream colored train is a bit slower and has a slight rattle, the red train rides pretty smooth. Did not have a chance to ride the blue train. Had a nightride during the Halloween event which ups the level of fun even more.

I just came off Troy after not riding it for 3 years and I'm in shock. What on earth happened to my favorite woody? For years it used to be butter smooth. Now it suddenly rides like a shopping trolley down a rocky hill and all the awesome airtime anf speed are completely gone. I would say this now rides almost as bad as Bandit. I don't get it, because Toverland takes really good care of this coaster with yearly retracks. So disappointed, I want my favorite coaster back!

Did I really just wait 45 minutes for a spinning wildmouse? Well, a cred's a cred I guess, haha. A piece of rusty junk from Mexico that took them 3 years to get open and it still rides like every shitty fair ground spinner. The station building is very well themed and the ride ties in with the story in the area nicely, but otherwise... why?

A smooth Vekoma looper with comfortable trains, a cool story line (spanning the themed area), some nice theming and a cool soundtrack? What's not to like? The pull in the loop while riding the back row is nice. They preserved a classic ride and now it's a perfect stepup ooaster for brave kids after the other coasters in the park. Shocked that it was walk-on all day while the standard fair ground wild mouse next to it got queues over an hour!

When I was in line (which took ages because they were running it on one train) this little girl behind me with her parents (I guestimate she was 10) was a bit anxious but very excited to ride. I didn't want to scare her, so I did not tell her it sucks and hurts, but I did warn her parents that these SLC coasters can be pretty unconfortable and somewhat violent. I urged them to ride towards the front of the train. But dad wanted to show he was a man, so he took his family towards the back. That little girl came off the ride in tears, inconsolable, because this coaster had hurt her so much. I saw them again 20 minutes later, she was still crying. Not because she had been scared, but because this coaster had abused her. Poor thing. I rode the front row, my ride wasn't that bad. It still hurt tho. But come on Moviepark, get rid of this piece of junk.

When I first rode this a few years ago, I didn't think it was as bad as everybody said. Maybe I rode a none wheel seat back then, because today, I fully understand it's reputation. You can see the tra...

When I first rode this a few years ago, I didn't think it was as bad as everybody said. Maybe I rode a none wheel seat back then, because today, I fully understand it's reputation. You can see the train violently shaking side to side during the ride. Not a fan of RMC personally, but if any ride deserves a visit by them, it's this one. Never going to happen tho. Since queues are always the longest in the park, MPG is not going to do anything about this, the general public will ride this hellhole regardless

Man, this coaster aged poorly. I absolutely loved it when I first rode it a few years back. Today I came off disappointed. A pretty violent rattle, especially near the front and the launches seem to have lost all of their punch. They skip the pre show with Geordy LaForge on the Enterprice bridge now, so that cheap looking but ok bit of theming goes unused (I know a lot of people prefet it without, but I love a good preshow). The light effects on the Borg Cube head chopper weren't working. Still a fun ride, but it used to be so much better.

I really don't get the high ratimgs here. This is a poor kids coaster disguised as a very poor dark ride. The theming is literally just bunch of old junk they had lying around from previous attractions and IP''s they lost when Warner Bros left. The coaster is too short and the stopping and starting doesn't do the experience any good. Only the storm scene at the beginning with the backwards launch is sort of fun. I had heard good things, but left seriously disappointed.
