Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure - Universal Islands of Adventure
Eric Esty hace 4 añosTematización Situación Launch
The only con with this coaster is the erratic pacing and that the coaster itself isn't as forceful as an extreme coaster. But those cons serve a greater purpose of making this one of the best family coasters in the world. Cool animatronics that are just detailed enough for how fast you pass by them, excellent launches that feel like a motorbike taking off, great twisty coaster sections, and excellent surprises. I will always be willing to wait an hour or maybe even two to get on this one.

Tematización Fun Obra maestra
While many dread screens on Universal Attractions, there are three that I believe utilize them to their fullest. Transformers does the minimum to make it effective, Spider-Man does the maximum, and Gringotts is somewhere in the middle. However, this ride has the benefit of having awesome coaster sections and speed, and as such doesn't break down nearly as often! There are so many excellent moments with Voldemort's giant fireball spell, the trolls launching you away, Mr. Weasley launching you away with a triumphant "Wingardium Leviosa!", Bellatrix making the track tilt down in a very rare coaster element, and the finale where the Norwegian Ridgeback launches you out of the Bank. Plus, the queue is one of the best in the world with a mini-ride midway through, and the onride soundtrack goes harder than the other Potter attractions. While my first rides left me disappointed, I now fully appreciate this attraction.

¡Romper en pedazos!
Screeeew this coaster! If Everest is the Magnum Opus of Imagineering, Primeval Whirl is one of their Opuscules, up there with Superstar Limo. Terribly and disgustingly themed, rough, uncomfortable, bad capacity, smelly.. and did I mention this and the whole Dino-rama are an eyesore? Please replace this with absolutely anything. A new dark ride, a new coaster, a new area, anything to replace the entire crappy section of Dinoland.

Rock'n Roller Coaster starring Aerosmith - Walt Disney World - Disney's Hollywood Studios
Eric Esty hace 4 añosTematización Inversiones Launch Torta Tiempo muerto
Wait a minute, I love that idea! This ride, which I just call Aerosmith, is a huge guilty pleasure. The best launch in Florida (Yes, including Cheetah Hunt, Hulk, AND Hagrid's!), an awesome first element, an excellent corkscrew, cheesy billboard theming, and awesome music. Complete with pointless meandering, bulky restraints, and poor track profiling! This ride is an absolute creative mess and I adore it for that.

Intensidad
This ride is literally empty. It's not particularly smooth or comfortable. There are no forces to speak of. The launches feel like nothing. The theming is mediocre, especially for Disney standards. But then again, it's not a bad ride either. It's just a glorified kiddie coaster.

Tematización Suavidad Demasiado corto
While this ride is much smoother and better themed than Big Thunder Mountain, it's also smaller, shorter, and less intense. And the wait is always long for this one.. I can only enjoy it if I have a fastpass or if the line is somehow less than 45 minutes. Because other than that, it's simply not worth it. Still, the turns are fun and smooth, the theming is impeccable, and the indoor dark ride section is the highlight. But the coaster itself is wholly unmemorable without many set-pieces besides a nice looking bridge.

Tematización Fun Duración Incomodidad
My only gripe with this ride is that the transitions are somewhat rough, and the single lap bar means the smaller rider will often have too much room, and you'll likely be sliding around on the plastic seat. Other than that, this is a serious contender for one of the best mine trains ever built. Excellently themed and landscaped, fast paced, and pure fun.

Tematización Comodidad Ejectors
Space Mountain is a very special ride to me, and I also think it's an exceptional roller coaster, seemingly by accident. Four of the three drops have sharp, Magnum-esque ejector airtime, and the largest drop has great floater air. There are also two sharp ejectors into midcourse brakes, which don't brake much at all. The ride feels very fast, with twinkling stars and supports whizzing by, Starry-O-Phonic sound effects making it feel faster, the projections on the dome, the awesome soundtrack, and the blasting A/C really create an awesome atmosphere for this coaster. The ride is also very nostalgic to me, and the queue's soundtrack takes my coaster loving heart on a journey. I also love the minimalist lap bars that you can leave a lot of room with, and the single row seating arrangement. I love everything about it and it's one of my favorite coasters in Florida.

Velocidad Intensidad Layout Vibración
On this coaster, opinions differ widely - I personally really like it: it is a relentless thrillride that stands out of the variety of german rollercoasters. The launch, the inside top hat and the loop are quite forceful, but in fact, they are just the beginning of a white-knuckle ride! The following strange helix provides very high and long-lasting G-forces which led to a greyout at every single ride I took (it was a very hot day, over 30 degrees!) and the rest of the layout is short, but stuffed with many snappy turns and other elements coming in one tour without any pauses in between. This ride is definetely not smooth, but with the comfortable lap bars there wasn't any headbanging, so the rattle was still bearable. Theming in the queue was quite good and the entire ride is beautifully embedded in the landscape, so it is also nice to look at. For me, this ride is the most intense rollercoaster in Germany and I would recommend it to every thrillseeker around!

Inversiones Fun Intensidad Incomodidad
Compared to other old-style Vekoma rides, this ride runs okay, there might me a little headbanging or some rattle, but nothing too dramatic. All in all, it is alright and the best coaster in the entire park (what is in fact no big deal!)
