    Un spinning Maurer imposant mais qui ne délivre pas de grandes sensations à l'intérieur. Il m'a un peu fait penser à Naga Bay à Bobbejaanland, en moins freiné quand même.

    Un clône de Sky Scream : j'aime beaucoup ce modèle, fun et intense.

    Ce nouvel Intamin européen s'impose comme une grande réussite, me faisant furieusement penser à Helix avec de vrais launches mais avec moins de moments de longs G négatifs. On apprécie que le premier launch (efficace) soit directement pris en sortie de station. La partie qui suit, bien que très plaisante, fait office de mise en jambe. Par contre, après le second launch (excellent !), tout devient jouissif : les ejectors secs et courts, les inversions, les moments d'intensité ... Je trouve par contre que les changements de direction sont peu efficaces mais ce n'est pas grave : Taïga propose plein de bonnes choses ! Autres points positifs : les fameux trains taronesques et la vue sur Helsinki : voler avec vue sur la ville à bord d'un Intamin, vous imaginez le kif !

    Primera caída Inversiones Fun Arnés

    Though I despised this coaster on its announcement and opening, I've learned to appreciate it for what it is now. Valravn became yet another Cedar Point icon, and after you walk past the graceful Gatekeeper and the roaring Raptor, you come upon the intimidating bronze Valravn. It's stunning, beautiful, magnificent even, and is beautifully landscaped. As for the ride, the vests do really suck, but for my body type, they're easy to look past. The first and second drops give great back row airtime, the inversions are all smooth with wonderful hangtime, and there are a couple moments of floater air in the second half. For this smaller footprint, Valravn is the perfect fit for the ever flexing Cedar Point, and perfects the B&M monster bird trio of the twinkling, nostalgic CP midway.

    Inversiones Velocidad Intensidad

    Raptor is the most aggressive invert I've ridden, and it's given me one of my most memorable coaster rides of my life: A trimless front row night ride. It was fast, furious, and relentlessly powerful, with the loop, zero-g, cobra roll, two flat spins, final helix, and the infamous Raptor snap into the brake run trying to kick my ass, and it is so much fun, especially with the new green paint and the gorgeous lighting giving you some visibility in the dark, and the twinkling midway evoking nostalgic images of America's Roller Coast during your ride.

    Lap Bar Situación Ejectors Incomodidad

    Though it is janky in some parts of the first half, no coaster makes me giggle quite like Magnum. A beautiful beachside location is a great backdrop for floater airtime and loud tunnels before the famous final act. The triangle airtime is so sharp that it's painful, but the simple lap bars soften the blow. Magnum is such a fun coaster, seemingly on accident, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

    Situación Fun Duración Torta

    Though the OSTRs give this one a little bit of classic Arrow headbanging, this ride is still great fun. A swingy ride through the woods with an excellent second half and a long duration to make up for any long waits.

    Airtimes Fun Suavidad Incomodidad

    Gemini is a very fun racing coaster with wacky airtime and an unpredictable outcome. There is some Arrow jank and discomfort on the uncushioned seats, but Gemini makes up for it in laughs. And since both sides have the same queue, you can have other members of your party on the other train and add stakes to the race.

    Though this is the lousiest Mine Train I've yet ridden, this ride is still fun, in a nice location, and I think it should stick around.

    Situación Intensidad Suavidad Demasiado corto

    With Manta not having a major refurbishment since its opening for more than 10 years now, Superman Ultimate Flight is now my favorite flying coaster. It's prettier, with a nicer paint job. It's better paced, with no mid-course brake run. And it's in a better location, being a full on terrain flying coaster. And with it being smaller, you swoosh into the worlds first pretzel loop even faster. The two overbanked turns give great unexplainable forces, and the inline twist is a great finale, and the ground hugging moments are superb. Though it lacks the queue, water splash, and two extra inversions of Manta, it's still an excellent flying coaster in its own right.
