    Emerald Park News/Discussion

    I saw this closure actually being announced on their website. Hope it'll be up soon and not down for the rest of the season. Would be a pity to miss it (though my prime reason for visiting is still the STC).

    Emerald Park News/Discussion

    Does anyone know if the major coasters are scheduled to be open at the weekends in Novermber? At first sight it seems so looking at the park's website but if you go to the individual rides it states opening during spring/summer/Halloween. Not sure if November weekends still count as Halloween...

    Wiener Prater | Wiener Looping | Mack Stryker Coaster | 2025

    I'm wondering about the opening day of wiener looping as I'll have the opportunity to pass by Vienna in September. RCDB still lists September but I couldn't find any recently put out information that would confirm this. Anyone who've been to Prater recently?

    Thanks for the update. Did you notice any differences in how it tracks?

    I did a short UK trip hitting four parks. I don't intend to write a full trip report, so let me briefly post my impression of my last major creds here. Blackpool Pleasure Beach I had a fun day here. It’s a quirky park, which is not exactly aesthetically pleasing at first sight as it appears...

    Voltron: I visited Europa Park last week's Friday for the first time in a couple of years. The weather was fabulous, and the crowd levels were actually lower than Queue Times predicted. I had a blast, enjoying the park's great atmosphere. I'm not sure if they've improved that much over the...

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    I actually wouldn't be surprised to see it rising even further considering the rave reviews it receives. Have just booked my trip to the UK for end of July, so stoked for that beast 🤪

    The one at SFMM was indeed surprisingly rattly already in its opening year while jersey devil was mostly smooth except for one jolt at a track joint just after the first turn around (pull out from the dive loop). The one at SFFT actually wasn't that bad when I rode it last years February. Ok, it...

    Great review as usual! I particularly love your *breakdown* ;) of the sequence of elements. 😅

    Hansa Park | "New and very big" attraction | 2025(?)

    Indeed, the video is a bit annoying, trying to make 8mins of nothing sound important. Other than that the building would complete the new esthetic of the front area and is Portuguese themed, it doesn't say anything. Oh ya, and they keep on emphasizing stuff like 'the steel for the concrete...

    Wiener Prater | Wiener Looping | Mack Stryker Coaster | 2025

    Could someone remind me why both of these Mack coasters are actually discussed in this thread? Was there actually a point in time where it has been considered to sell the coaster planned for Vienna to Fantasiana or was this just us confusing the two projects which, however, evolved totally...

    Thanks, JoshC., for elaborating on this. So, in conclusion, whatever they changed, it seems to affect unloaded trains more than loaded trains. Really makes me curious...

    I was actually missing this detail. So, you are saying after the fix Hyperia ran slower, do I understand correctly?

    "One of the staff making their way up to give them a bit of lunch." -- Regardless of whether this being true or not (seems very made up to me but what do I know), this is a truly outstanding location for serving lunch 🤩 I like it 😉

    Now that Mack has joined RMC in the club of pushing the boundaries of crazy elements, they also seemed to have signed up for loud chainlifts. ;)

    Are you at the park while testing takes place and find it is loader than before the fix?

    The headline rolls look awesome. Seems they have a brief ejector pop at the beginning that really throws you into the element. Can't wait to ride this.

    For adding drive tires you have to remove the piece of track and replace it with another one fabricated to accommodate drive tires afaik.

    Thanks sharing your thoughts. May I ask what are your number 1 and 2 coasters?
