Coaster reviews

Airtimes Intensity Hangtime

I'm Swedish and I can say that this is without a doubt Sweden's best roller coaster! Helix has everything a roller coaster should contain. Two launchers, 7 inversions and airtime, and it's a long ride. I love that this coaster start straight away with a drop out of the station and right after that there is a loop, instead of it being a lift hill. Which means something is happening om this rollercoaster all the time, there really is no time to breathe. And since this is located on the mountain inside Liseberg, it uses the terrain very well and it feels significantly taller than what the track itself is. My absolute favorite part of the whole ride is the last airtime hill! You just feel how you fly out of the seat when you ride it. Balder's Airtime is insanely good, but the last airtime hill on helix is ​​better than all the airtime on Balder! I understand people who say that you don't feel the launchers on Helix. It's not like you're pushed back into the seat forcefully if you say that. But when I rode it last time, I at least felt that you were pushed back a little bit in the seat. So they aren't completely forceless and didn't ruin the ride for me. I strongly recommend trying to sit both front and back. At the front you get the best view when riding, while at the back you get a much more intense and exciting riding experience. You sit very comfortably in the train. The seats are comfortable and the stafety bar around the waist is the same. You feel very safe when you simply ride. The ride itself is very soft and nice, I must say. Many people say that Helix has become shaky in recent years. And it's not really strange at all, since it has been operating at Liseberg since 2014. But I didn't experience it shaking in any way and it was just incredibly comfortable to ride in every way! One thing I also like about Helix is ​​that it is neither the tallest nor the fastest rollercoaster. Without them being the best experience. Which is also what Liseberg wanted from the beginning. and they really succeeded! So even though the launches may not be the best and it has become shaky in last couple of years, it doesn't matter for me, because Helix is ​​so perfect on everything else. Both the airtime and hangtime are spectacular during the whole ride. I would definitely say that this is one of the best roller coasters in Europe! A clear 10/10 from me!!
