I love Jungle Rush. Is it the most intense coaster in Australia? No, obviously, but it is an amazing ride experience nonetheless that demonstrates that family coasters can be a great addition to a parks lineup.
The coaster is buttery smooth, features Disney/ Universal standard theming, and delivers riders multiple airtime moments that, whilst brief and family friendy in intensity, are still loads of fun and enough to scratch the itch. There are also several elements that are quite forceful and pull solid laterals (again, these are not on the level of any thrill coaster like Maverick, but they are more intense than they probably needed to be). I'll take it!
The highlight, however, is that Jungle Rush features multiple ride experiences thanks to Vekoma's new switchback turntable. For my first few rides, the park was running two trains, so riders would experience the first circuit forwards or backwards, followed by the second circuit (also forwards or backwards). But in the afternoon when wait times had reduced, the park operated one train but ran the first cycle twice (once forwards and once backwards) before shifting the switchtrack to the second cycle. The result waw four different variations of Jungle Rush, with the two three cycle variants offering a lengthy ride duration. When you consider the fact that the front and backward carriages also offer distinct ride experiences, the result is unparalleled rerideability.
Therefore, the opportunity to enjoy multiple ride variations, combined with the excellent standard of theming and punchy family sized thrills, makes Jungle Rush the family/ themed coaster to beat.

Leviathan is an ultra-fast paced, airtime beast with multiple, significant ejector airtime moments throughout. The ride's duration and layout are fantastic; you are certainly satisifed when the ride finishes. The coaster features fantastic theming as well, with an immersive que that doubles as a pre-show (I found the pre-ride experience genuinely intimitated me). The ride can be a little rough at times and features a steady "jack hammering" (nothing overly problematic though, at least for me). The backwards seat, however, is pretty brutal and knocked me around something shocking. I'm not sure why - maybe it was just disorientating, but that backwards ride actually destroyed me. I'm not sure I would recommend the backward seat unless your a freak like me.

in one's personal opinion, Draken is scariest roller coaster in Korea. It is short but strong and thrilling. In particular, you can feel ejector airtime in the first drop, and You can feel the strong gravity just before Immelmann turn. Next, It's weaker than the first drop, but you can feel soft floater airtime in the second drop and can to experience a splash(water brake)

So, for a family coaster, I was blown away by how good it serves it purpose. Not too thrilling, but still gives a fun and enjoyable layout to all ages. Launch was surprisingly good and punchy, amazing laterals at the last S curves. The thing I didn’t like was the trim brakes. Why trim brake then accelerate?
Rough as hell at the last turns, but the ride delivers insane airtime. Not as intense as I expected ( since I just did eejanaika ) but still fun. And ...
Rough as hell at the last turns, but the ride delivers insane airtime. Not as intense as I expected ( since I just did eejanaika ) but still fun. And also who uses one train ops on this 2045 meter long coaster it makes the dispatches once per 8 minutes.

If there’s one thing Gerstlauer is good at, it’s the launch. The first heartline roll was node, then the 121 degree drop was amazing. The banana roll delivered some strong positive Gs.
