Icon is a Mack Multi Launch coaster located at Pleasure Beach Resort. The coaster has some great moments, my personal highlights being the: non inverting immelmant, top hat, hangtime on the inversion, s bend and a few little pops of ejector airtime. What really makes icon is the fact that its as if old meets new, as it interacts with many classic rides in the park. It truly is a great addition to the park and as of 2025, is my 2nd fav coaster in the UK. I guess the only con with icon is the forceless launches, however they do the job.

What do you expect from an SLC? My head hurt after a ride on Infusion, however it is very aesthetically pleasing and looks nice. The layout is relatively impressive as it takes up an incredibly small footprint, however the restraints are just horrible and there is endless headbanging throughout. Tear it down and get something else, please Amanda Thompson Remember youll find some great photos on my instagram @airtimeofficial , any suppirt is massively appreciated

Taron is an Intamin Blitz coaster located at Phantasialand. Starting with the area its in, Klugheim is absolutely breathtaking and the theming is on a world class scale. Rockwork is everywhere, with taron being the centerpiece, weaving in and out of rocks and buildings. For the queueline, get rid of that stupid cattle pen i hate it. The ride itself has 2 launches, s bends, overbanks and some nice whippy moments. I really did enjoy the ride overall, but taking aside the theming, this coaster isnt really all that. Youll get honest reviews from me which is why im praising the theming endlessly, however the actual layout is kind of lackluster in some areas. Dont get me wrong, the second launch is fantastic, and some of the transitions do throw you about, but there really isnt much airtime atall! The theming is 100% the standout for me on Taron, however in my opinion, F.L.Y is definitely the better coaster. Although the ride didnt fully deliver what I was expecting, it is still a fantastic coaster, and definitely has some great moments! Remember to follow my insta @airtimeofficial.

Silver Star is a B&M Hyper Coaster located at Europa Park. Although the theming isnt upto europa park standards, the ride sure does make up for it. Climbing the lifthill, you really do realise how high the first drop actually is. At the back you are pulled down the first drop and the sense of speed is fantastic. The drop is followed by some lovely camelback hills providing a little bit of floater airtime, but not too much. After an intense turn around and a couple more hills, you enter what is, in my opinion, the strongest part if the ride. The airtime on the 2nd half is fantastic, especially on the drop after the mid course. The ride is truly fantastic. Its intense yet floaty, powerful yet graceful, and my 2nd favorite coaster at Europa Park. This ride doesnt have a con, and although its not the worlds best coaster, it certainly is one of my favourites! Remember to follow my Instagram @airtimeofficial, i appreciate any support!!

Wodan Timbur Coaster is a great wooden coaster and fits perfectly at Europa Park. The theming is very strong, especially in the queueline. The ride itself is a great thrilling wooden coaster, with some nice punchy ejector hills scattered throughout. The sense of speed on Wodan is fantastic too, flying in and out through the structure. Although it is a little on the shorter side, it most definitely does not take away from a fantastic wooden coaster! Remember to follow my instagram @airtimeofficial.

Voltron Nevera opened to the public in 2024. It is a Stryker model coaster manufactured by the incredible Mack Rides. The ride has 7 inversions, incredible airtime and a few suprises throughout. I am going to talk about the ride in detail, so if your super excited to ride this coaster, im sure youll want to read this! In regards to the queue line and station, the theming is perfected. The musical tessela coils on the roof are truly mindblowing and incredibly loud! The station is beautifully themed, with booming audio, incredible operations and a fantastic atmosphere. As you are arranged into your incredibly comfortable trains, you make your way to a trick track element where the track jumps up and down, giving a little pop of airtime, however it is obvious this is just to show off what the Stryker model is capable of. The launch kicks in and you go up into the Beyond-Vertical launch, which is incredibly strange and a very unique sensation. The hangtime at the top is fantastic, and you make your way straight into a whippy inversion. You then enter an ejector airtime hill, followed by 2 non-inverting immelmans. After this, you head into the booster launch, followed by an incredible zero g stall. After another airtime hill and a couple meanders, you make your way into a brake run. Is this this the end? Nowhere near. You head into a turntable which rotates you 180 degrees, and into the backwards launch. After this, you head up into a spike, before launching forwards into a fantastic top hat, dropping down into an airtime hill providing great sustained ejector, and then into the wave turn, my favourite element on Voltron. You are chucked out your seat and it feels so weird but also fantastic. Following this, you enter 2 more great airtime hills, into a mid course, which doesnt slow you down at all. You then enter the final section of the ride, consisting of 2 great corkscrews, some very intense turns, a cutback and a great airtime hill. This ride is truly mindblowing, especially at night when the lights are on. I can quite confidently say that as of the start of 2025, Voltron Nevera is my number 1 coaster, only just beating the Ride To Happiness. The one issue i have with Voltron is its unreliability when it comes to smoothness. Some seats are alot smoother than others, and while I can get past it, I can understand that for some people, this really may affect the ride experience. I am so happy that I had the privilege of riding this coaster as it really was a bucket list one for me, and the park is absolutely breathtaking, especially for their winter event. I can’t recommend Europa Park more, and i really hope you all get to experience Voltron! A follow on my instagram would be much appreciated @airtimeofficial as i am a photographer and love taking photos of incredible rides across the globe!
