First Drop Inversions

This is a solid floorless coaster, but it did not stand out above the others I have ridden as of now (Scream/Bizarro). The straight first drop surprisingly provided some floater airtime which was a good start. The majority of the elements are typical for this model, and the sea serpent roll, although rare, did not provide any unique forces. This is a solid #2 and supporting coaster at the park.

First Drop Débit Déception ! Temps mort

A bit disappointing tbh, it just doesn’t do anything. It’s not even super smooth. The inversions aren’t exciting and the only credible thing is that first drop.

Inversions Intensité Layout

Very cool ride. The queue had nice aquariums to look at. The coaster itself is amazing and had one nice ejector airtime spot, its fast paced, no rattle, not too short and has a good layout. Thrill: 4/5

First Drop Fun Intensité Layout

The first drop is the best of the ride, its amazing and very long. The first half of the coaster focusses more on drops while the second half more on intense curves. The mid course break slows you down a bit too abruptly and is a bit of a buzz kill. Then follow some curves and an intense helix which gave me a short grey out. The layout is not the ride's strongest feature, its is very smooth though. Thrill: 4/5

Airtimes Layout Temps mort

Many people say this is the worst RMC, and while I have not ridden enough of them to make that judgement, it is the weakest RMC I've ridden to date. The layout is unique in that they had a relatively small space to work with, and the elements are very compact. There is airtime, but it is honestly weak for RMC standards. This is a result of the ride's biggest flaw, which is its poor pacing. Even the first few elements felt noticeably slow, and it kept its mediocre pace constant throughout the layout. That being said, it's still a fantastic ride and #1 at the park. It is unique in the lineup, and is much better than the GCI that it was converted from. (p.s. This was my 100th credit!)

Lap Bar Launch Débit Déception ! Inconfort

This was the first Premier Sky Rocket ll I've ridden and, as of now, I am somewhat disappointed. The triple launch was a good start, but then starting with the twist to the top, it got very uncomfortable. All of the transitions were painful as they whip you quite hard to the side. The hangtime at the top was good, and the non-inverting loop was also fun, but the discomfort stopped me from enjoying the ride. Admittedly, I only got one ride, so I hope my opinion will change as I ride more of these. One other thing to note is that this installment, being the original, one only has two cars which makes the capacity pretty bad.

Situation Vibrations Débit

This is a weird coaster at a weird family park in the middle of nowhere, Oregon. The strangest part about the ride is probably the cars, which are fully enclosed and have bench seating like a log flume. Each car can uncomfortably seat 2 adults or an adult and two kids (I recommend asking to go solo in a car if you're a full sized human). In short, the layout consists of going up a lift hill into an "Ice Mountain" and then dropping out into the rest of the terrain layout. The greatest strength of this coaster is its location, as you ride through a tree filled hillside sort of like a mountain coaster. The worst part of this ride is how rough it is, but that is the same as what you would get on other family coasters from Zierer or E.F. Miller. Also, the capacity is terrible as each train only has 3 cars and that means on average 6 people per train. If you enjoy weird and quirky coasters, you will enjoy this one. Otherwise, I don't see why you would make the trek out to Oregon for this. TLDR: Discount Matterhorn Bobsleds.

First Drop Fluidité Trop court Débit

This was my first Gerstlauer Eurofighter, and it was mostly what I expected. The first drop is fun, there is good hang time, and it is a smooth ride. The main weaknesses of this ride were that it wasn't very forceful, and that it is a short ride. However, it's still awesome that a small park like Oak's got a new addition from a top manufacturer. I probably won't go back to Oak's unless they add something unique down the line, but it's worth a stop if you're passing by Portland.

Lap Bar

This is a standard E&F Miler coaster, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. It is fun in that you get whipped around with the lap bars, but that's the only interesting part. This park needs a kid/family coaster, and this is a solid ride for that slot.

Bonne suprise ! Vibrations

Being my first SBF Visa, I was pleasantly surprised by this compact spinning coaster. The one big issue is that when going over the lift tires, the cars shake like you're offroading. If you keep your head back, it will get jackhammered by the hard plastic back/headrest, so I recommend leaning forward during the ride. The surprising thing was, given my seating position, the cars would spin when you are spiraling down in a way that gives some solid Gs pushing you against your seat. But aside from that, the ride is very tame. This is definitely more interesting than most kiddie coasters, so it is a good fit for small parks like Playland's.
