Théma Fun Inconfort
Update January 2024: This is actually a pretty agressive coaster. It's not smooth, it's got a few transitions that are questionable, especially those on the first turn. A few more were pretty awkward but it was a bit more intense than I remembered. The brakes near the end didn't slow the train down nearly as much as on my previous rides so that ending seemed normal. The brakes are still brutal though, and the ride itself is pretty useless, with Pégase Express right next to it. I guess it's the smaller family coaster so it still has a role to play (maybe), and I just think the park keeps it because it's a people magnet for some reason (It gets waits around 30 minutes of the time during the summer and winter seasons). Update August 2023: This was quite a nice surprise compared to what I remembered. I rode it in row 1 and the transitions are actually really good and it's butter smooth. Some of the transitions in the first half are quite whippy. Discomfort isn't a real issue in the front part of the seat too. A better ride than Voyage Dans Le Ciel. The slow banked turns at the end are still awkward and the brakes are quite violent. Update October 2022: The roughness on this coaster is actually not that bad but the inline seating is definitely a problem. It is incredibly uncomfortable. I was behind my friend and he told me that being in the front part of the seat was painful, I even banged my head with him on one of the jerky transitions. Speaking of those transitions, they are taken so slowly at the end that you get pinned to the side of the train. The theming in the queue is a nice touch though. Ok, let’s talk about downtime. This coaster is always down at least once when I visit the park and this time and this time it broke down right in front of me. The problem this time came from a brake at the final brake run. This ride has weird banking. It seems as though it is not banked enough where it should be banked a little more and it is weirdly banked way too much at the end where it crawls through the final section. This ride is weirdly unique and charming in its own rights. I no longer think it’s one of the worst coasters ever as it is fitting in the park and I hope the park keeps it around for the foreseeable future and I don’t know how it rode before its retrack between the 2016 and 2017 seasons but I definitely think the retrack will help with keeping it around. I can overlook the discomfort and appreciate the oddly unique layout and it is a good fit for families who are not looking for huge thrills. It absolutely needs a raise in my rankings and I will give it 2 stars compared to the 1.5 stars that I gave it originally. Beware of the brakes though, they hit pretty hard. Original review: This coaster is one of the worst coasters I've ever ridden, its capacity is atrocious, I mean when I went there the queue stretched out well beyond the entrance. The ride has an unbearable rattle and the turns are extremely jerky. Of its brake runs is awkwardly banked to the right and the first brake run has booster wheels before it because the train dosen't have enough speed to make it up there. That just seems like bad design to me... oh and the ride is at least from my experience really unreliable, when I went there in 2018 the ride didn't even open from the park's opening to its closure. At least S.O.S. Numerobis, which is worse, doesn't have an hour of wait time. For all the people that dump on Goudurix, this is worse and I personally think Goudurix is more ridedable than this and I still don't undersand why Goudurix has a worse rating than this piece of crap, however i think this has three things that push it up to 1.5 stars for me: 1. This ride has no assigned seating, you can choose where you ride. 2. It's a uniquly weird coaster. 3. The theming in the queue and station is good, but when you're on the ride itself, it's got none when you're an the ride aside from a lazy netting over the lift hill and a sun a the end of the lift hill.

Airtimes Launch Intensité Débit
This format seems to get a lot of criticism, which is compounded further by it's status as a clone...but, I love this format and loved my ride on Tigris. I went on Tempesto this summer, so Tigris didn't catch me off guard in quite the same way, but I really enjoyed it nonetheless. Capacity is a challenge. We were lucky, it was a slow day at BGT so we didn't have to wait too long for it. The launches are great, the stall/airtime after the backwards launch is a fantastic element, the slow inversion at the top is quite enjoyable, and the shoulder harnesses didn't both me in the slightest. I may be in the minority, but I'm a big fan. Both Tempesto and Tigris are severely underrated in my view...

Launch Layout
Pipeline was a solid update to an otherwise fatigued format. I hope it breathes some life back into the stand-up coaster genre, which I feel has been too harshly judged over the years. The theming, launch, design and layout are all extremely well done and the ride has some really good moments of intensity beyond the launch, which was the highlight of my ride. The only gripe is that it never gets beyond "3rd or 4th gear" in terms of speed or intensity. I was hoping for a little bit more from it, but I recognize my tastes are not that of everyone else. I think it's a smart addition to the park with appeal that should lend nicely to the masses and aspiring enthusiasts. Extreme coaster enthusiasts should give it a shot with tempered expectations and look to Manta to scratch their extreme intensity itch.

Théma Fun Longueur
It’s amazing! My number 2, Taron being number 1. But man this is so good, probably the best themed rollercoaster IN THE WORLD, it has airtime, is comfortable, has the best operations that I have ever seen! Definitely book a trip to Phantasialand to experience this one of a kind attraction!

Théma Fun Layout Débit Intensité
This is where some extremists of opinion won't be able to understand or relate because they honestly feel that there's some 'objective truth' in VelociCoaster being the best there is to offer.... But for those of us who look for rides that pack thrills into an experience without violent and rapid shifting, this ride isn't all that it's cracked up to be (especially after travelling across the continent and then waiting an additional 2.5hrs to get on this thing). That's not to say it isn't fun and has a cool design (because BOTH of those were true for us), but I'll still take Hagrid's over this ride. I thought I'd be alone in this perspective, but it turns out all the other adults in my group felt the same (the kids preferred VelociCoaster)...

Théma Débit
A well rounded coaster for kids. Since it's a family ride, the line can be too long, and all of that for 30 seconds of ride

For its age, it's a very well maintained coaster. At some moments can be uncomfortable, but overall it is very smooth and very enjoyable. It has some surprise airtime moments which are good.

Théma Intensité Vibrations
This is one of the many SLC Vekoma clones worldwide. Unfortunately, for Brazil, this is, as for today (2024), the best we could get in terms of steel coasters. But the park has done a great job on making it less painful and more re-rideable. I've been also on Skydeck at Canada's Wonderland, which was full of headbanging, but Firewhip changed the over shoulder restraints making it more bearable. Also, the color scheme is great. Overall, it's a fun ride.

Inversions Vitesse Intensité
Manta completely changed my view on the flying coaster format. I've been on Superman Ultimate Flight (SFOG) and Nighthawk and really didn't enjoy either, but Manta was a stellar experience...bigger, faster, and much more forceful. I don't know why a more intense combination of the same elements I've experienced before were so much more enjoyable - they just were. And I'm grateful for it. I was not expecting it, but Manta was the best coaster in the park. Great theming, beautiful design and a wicked experience...and the pretzel roll...just wow! Loved it front to back. Only complaint was having to hang for about 90 seconds after our ride finished waiting for the train in front of us to clear. A small gripe in the grand scheme. Bring on Tatsu!

Airtimes First Drop Situation
There's nothing to complain about here. Mako is a solid B&M Hyper. I loved the color, layout/location and theme/connection to the park, but these are secondary things for me...as a ride it ranks in the middle of my B&M hyper experiences. Really good, but not great...Nitro is still the horse to beat (among those I've ridden.)
