    New style Vekoma shuttle family coaster. Great theming. Not very comfortable for a six foot guy

    Débit Launch Fun

    Nice, long, well themed Celina mine train with some very surprising and unexpected twists and turns. No seat devider so you will be tossed around. It has some nice laterals in some parts and the theming is outstanding as is expected of Phantasialand. Great family coaster, have been riding it for over 25 years now and I still like it.

    Théma Chef d'oeuvre Intensité

    Love this ride. Not a drawn out long and massive b&m invert, but a shorter, twisty, low to the ground, intense experience. Do it in the front and you will get a new definition of what a head chopper or a near miss is. Sit In the back and you will have no idea what is coming since the whole layout is obscured from vision. Some say it kind of meanders towards the end, but actually the last part is designed to have a lot of downwards positive g's so your legs feel wobbly when you come of. This is in sink with the theme of a black mamba biting you and you slowly lose control and also sight, since you end the coaster in the dark.

    Inconfort A raser ! Temps mort

    Sorry I could add only 3 cons. This is a pointless coaster, with no redeeming attributes. It is rough, shaky, has abrupt brake stops and has terrible capacity.

    Airtimes Ejectors Longueur Vibrations Inconfort

    This is a weird mix of intensity, airtime, great layout, long coaster, good pacing, combined with a lot of rattle, roughness and slightly too small trains for a 6 foot tall guy with a backpack he needs to take on the train. Came off liking it but with a headache.

    Fun Longueur Temps mort

    Ride alone if possible, don't lean against the back rest and you will have an enjoyable ride filled with some decent laterals and some fun experiences since it is a bobsled coaster. Ride with 2 and lean against the back rest and you will experience a lot of rattle and discomfort.

    Fun Inconfort

    Standard kids coaster with a surprise amount of laterals the second and third time you go around just after leaving the station.

    Intensité Fluidité Longueur Théma

    Nice b&m invert. Smooth, intense and long, with a few surprise twists you don't see coming. Great capacity. I am not a fan of the theming.

    Inversions Confort Fun

    Underrated gem. I did have a odd experience with the restraint. The lap bar wasn't snug and I had about 7 inches of room. On a RMC I would not be complaining but it was quite odd on a flying coaster. I needed to hold myself up because it was hard to rest on the restraint so I got very tired by the end. It definitely made it a memorable ride.

    First Drop Inversions Intensité Débit Harnais Inconfort

    I came off Shockwave the first time and said I have no idea why I enjoyed that, but I did! There's no doubt that the restraints are very uncomfortable, and very awkward. There's no doubt that this plus only running 1 train means the dispatches take forever. There's no doubt it's short. And there's no doubt that the brakes hit so hard at the end that you see those who aren't expecting it fly forward into their big uncomfortable restraint, which must hurt a bit. But both rides I had were just great fun. For a nearly 30-year old ride, it runs surprisingly smoothly all the way round, the first drop is really good, and all 4 inversions are very intense and taken at a really good speed. The highlight being the zero g roll which is pretty crazy, but actually feels really well profiled. Not to mention how unique the ride is. Stand ups have long been out of fashion but I hope Drayton can keep it going for a while yet, and I actually hope it stays as a stand up rather than getting the floorless treatment. Just a great fun, unique ride and i'm very pleased I finally got to experience it
