    First Drop Rattle

    The main selling point for this is the vertical lift and the first drop (which is, however, very straight). The rest of the layout has the same problems as 'Poseidon' in Europa-Park: The boat rattles ...

    Launch Fun

    iSpeeds launch packs some punch! The rest of the layout is full of intensive moments.

    Fun

    This is the better wooden coaster in the park - even if it is a family ride.

    Fun Discomfort

    I'm a fan of dueling wooden coasters - but this is a little bit too shaky and rattly for my tastes.

    Launch Discomfort

    Most people don't like the rattle (or vibrations) on this ride, especially in the outer seats. Well, at least it is a short ride, so headaches might not occur. I like the really intensive launch thoug...

    Ok for a mine train, but nothing special.

    Capacity Headbanging

    This is a little bit overrated. There was a time where the parks always tried to get the roller coaster with the most inversions and the result was a lot of mediocre rides which feel more like a flatr...

    Airtimes Capacity Comfort

    This is a more modern version of a B&M Hyper compared to Silver Star in Europa-Park. If you like this kind of ride (long floater airtime hills, high-speed cruisin' with comfortable lapbars) this is on...

    Tear it down!

    Wow, what a waste of wood it was in the end! No airtime, lots of rattle, lots of slow curves.

    Launch

    These Intamin shuttle launchers are fun, but resemble more a giant swing than a roller coaster.

    First Drop Harness

    I prefer the new restraints over the bulky older ones on Sheikra and Griffon (I still got enough airtime and had a new sensation of freedom with these vests). It's longer than SheiKra and Griffon but ...

    Fun Masterpiece

    This "one-trick-pony" gives you a 30-seconds kick of sensations. The setting in the middle of the park and the lap bars are a big plus compared to Kingda Ka.

    Capacity Comfort

    The conversion to a sit-down coaster was a good idea.

    Intensity Intensity

    Compared to more recent B&M inverters, this is nothing to write home about. Very intense ride, but I don't think this is in any way better then the Six Flags Batman clones.

    Fun

    Speed and pure fun, not very intense and could use a little bit more of airtime. A classic!

    Masterpiece Discomfort

    Overrrated! All Arrow hypercoasters have some strangely bent tracks and are overall not very comfortable to ride. This started the "Coaster Wars" back then, where every park wanted to have the highest...

    Comfort

    Well, the Bat in Kings Dominion is better, but this is also good family fun.

    Masterpiece Harness

    This is a masterpiece from the past and one of the best Arrow coasters I have ridden so far.

    Comfort Smoothness

    B&M wing coasters are relatively forceless and very smooth - and this is no exception. Loved the near-miss effects.

    Headbanging Discomfort

    Ok, this is an Arrow classic. And not the most comfortable one.

  • Heiko Hartmann 7 years ago

    Pointless

    Compared to more modern mine trains, this is an uncomfortable ride with lots of pointless breaks.

  • Heiko Hartmann 7 years ago

    Fun

    Nice family woodie.

    Launch Ejectors

    Much hype around this - and left me a little bit disappointed. The first "launch" lift hill is a forgettable gimmick, the second launch is great, though. I didn't like the pacing on this coaster, a li...

    Launch

    The launch really kicked in - but ended a little bit too early. The rest of the layout had a footprint which was too small.

    Fun Masterpiece

    Nice terrain coaster design from Anton Schwarzkopf. A classic.

  • Heiko Hartmann 7 years ago

    Comfort Fun Masterpiece

    If it only had more intense launches - it would be my number one roller coaster. As it is, it is easily in my top 10: It's flying through the terrain, nice inversions, some airtime moments and a wonde...

    Airtimes Fun Smoothness

    For me, Balder is the number one of all classic woodies. So smooth and yet so wild. Love the drops and the tunnels.

    Masterpiece Intensity Smoothness

    Go and ride this! The best RMC I have ridden so far, and it already starts with the looks from the outside. The coaster is build INTO the rocks. I absolutely love the first drop, the zero-g stall and ...

    Pointless

    Well, a rather tame ride on this one, even for a Junior woodie.

    Headbanging Discomfort

    Oh I hate standup coasters. Loading and unloading takes ages. Standup position is not comfortable at all and doesn't add much to the ride experience. Lots of headbanging here. It's no wonder that park...
