    Major Expansion Announced for Tokyo DisneySea

    Apparently I was completely wrong. As of now (3pm local time), the maximum wait in Fantasy Springs is just 20 minutes. For comparison: Space mountain at the neighbouring Tokyo Disneyland sits at a comfortable 85 minutes wait right now If I recall correctly, they only let you in if you have a...

    Major Expansion Announced for Tokyo DisneySea

    Maybe it’s because of the official opening date being tomorrow? I do imagine that most guests interested in the expansion will have a trip planned for after it’s opened and just a comparably small amount coming earlier after hearing of a soft opening.

    The scale of this project will never cease to amaze me.

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    It’s a new ride, so recency bias will help it a lot. The more interesting reviews will come in a year or so. Keep also in mind that local thoosies may hype it to bits because it’s the first ride with real airtime in the UK. To be fair, Icon last row gives some nice ejector in places, but that...

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    Or cut out parts of the track as seen on The Ride to Happiness by Tomorrowland. Definitely doesn’t happen overnight.

    Walibi Rhone-Alpes | Mahuka | Intamin Hot Racer | 2024

    Be aware of the tunnel towards Turin - it cost us 48€ in 2021 for a one way drive.

    Six Flags Qiddiya | Saudi Arabia | Theme Park

    Aaaand it’s trimmed. Still, the amount of trims is not even close to what Formula Rossa has, but they will make it slightly less insane.

    Bellewaerde Park | Mundo Amazonia | Intamin Rapids & More | 2024

    As of now, the ride is still shut down, with no opening date being published anymore. According to an article on Loopings.nl, about 15,000 people were able to ride the attraction, which is about as much as a regular rafting ride can do within a single day...

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    To be clear: This is an opinion of someone who hasn't ridden Hyperia yet. But my main issue with its lenght is that it is neither a full fledged layout, nor a one trick pony. It's a bit in an identity crisis. It has a total of 4 elements after the drop (turnaround, outward banked, that...

    When is the Munich Oktoberfest ride lineup revealed?

    not an official source, but those guys usually know what they are talking about (german); most posts do contain a source as well. https://www.kirmesforum.de/threads/m%C3%BCnchen-80336-oktoberfest-21-09-06-10-2024.66655/

    Six Flags Qiddiya | Saudi Arabia | Theme Park

    When the 240ft coaster is considered the „step-up“ ride in a park 🤣

    Cedar Point | Top Thrill 2 | Triple Launch Renovation | 2024

    I don’t expect them to ever go public with the specific issue. If it was a mechanical one (as it looks now), it would imply a safety risk and they wouldn’t go public. If it was an electrical issue, it would imply that they didn’t do enough testing and therefore compromise the rides safety - so...

    Do-Dodonpa closed

    After seeing Europa Park going with a quad LSM layout… couldn’t Intamin do the same with their (more powerful) LSM modules? It wouldn’t be as insane as the original, but I feel about 3g average are reasonable. Would at least be some kind of worthy replacement. And Intamin should ride...

    League of Goons 2024: Q&A

    I bet that this was asked often enough, but I want to be sure: If I am part of a group of 3, and just the 3 of us sit in a coaster - does this count as a Solo-ride? Does this also go for Wild Mice, were our group of 3 would keep others from entering the car?

    Battle of the best inverts

    There can only be one answer to the question of the best invert: Monster at Walygator. Take Raptor at Cedar point, remove any trimms and you got yourself a decent amount of insanity. I wanted to write „complete insanity“ at first, but that title has to go to Tornado. But for an invert, it is...

    Europa Park | Voltron | Mack Rides Stryker Coaster | 2024

    I’ve had multiple rides this week, and Voltron can be an amazing coaster. But it can also be horrible. The good trains are fine on the inner seats and rough, but still bearable on the outer ones. The bad trains are rough on the inside and horrible on the outer seats. I think I would rather...

    Six Flags Qiddiya | Saudi Arabia | Theme Park

    If I recall correctly, that „lift“ is supposed to be a 120 km/h launch, so there is plenty of chance for decent airtime.

    Hydraulic restraints question

    Superman sounds like a solid guess. The Mega-Coasters as we know them started 2 years later in 1999. I was just trying to think what my first rollercoaster with hydraulic restraints was, but Colossos is certainly not the first one.
