Yeah I haven't been to do such an in depth teardown as the above, but it does look really really cheap for what you'd expect out of Europa park.

Looks fun for the whole family but I agree, having the train stop mid ride to do essentially a separate layout compared to other coasters in this genre is a bit strange. What is definitely awkward is the placing of the camera for this on-ride footage.

I believe I heard the fountains are pretty low on purpose right now to avoid any wetness for riders while it's still rather cool, and they'll go higher on warmer days, so that people don't avoid riding it on cooler days out of fear of getting wet.

The colours in these graphics just kinda make it look like Swingi at Linnanmäki without the music notes

^^ The coaster experience itself doesn't have rotation, right? Looks like they turned the F.L.Y rotation system on it's side, with how the trains on that have the seats rotate as they exit the station.

Even less distinguishable since even the lapbar Eurofighters use a different train/restraint design to the 2-row infinities. If Voltron was the definition of Stryker I'd get that it was a style/layout compactness thing but if this is a Stryker, I'm confused.

"Aspro Parks has invested over £25M since rescuing the park" that is... not much over that many years for a theme park. But, it's Aspro parks who really really really hate doing any worthwhile investment in their properties unless they really have to, letting their parks rot first and then...

Skyline hasn't exactly had the best start in the industry, huh

For less in the sense that this involved a tragic death, but the Do-Dodonpa broken bone incidents were actual riders getting injured from riding the ride so it's more impactful for the fate of the ride itself, presumably.

I'm here for the resurgence of HUSS, please be somewhere I can visit relatively easily

Now watch them have issues with the supply chain in regards to the repaint/retheme causing this to get delayed another year till 2026

Those Technical Park suspended powered coasters aren't listed on RCDB in any case, at least not the one at Linnanmäki (my home park) either. Probably because they move slower than a ghost train, if I had to guess.

My point with the last sentence was just that there's immense injustice across the world so I don't think Russia getting coasters is exceptionally sad or reason to get upset. Especially when with countries like Russia it's not like it's gonna improve their tourism industry.

I haven't had embarrassing experiences on them yet but I'd be conscious of that too unless I was going with other friends. But as another no-kiddie creds team member checking in; there's also the factor of just fun, aka the same reason I don't go on classic loopers and such if I have any inkling...

I guess it wasn't in this thread that I said it but it's also worth to note that Zamperla shipped an entire park's worth of rides including a Volare to Kaeson Youth Park in Pyongyang yet I think the sanctions are and have been tighter on North Korea for decades than they are on Russia, a couple...

This ride is... Odd. Granted, some of the Eurofighters Gerstlauer has built are also really short in length, but not only is this really really short I'm also confused about the oddly steep lift hill and the fact that it seems to have pretty intense turns but no inversions.

^ Since the closures were announced and they didn't immediately file demolition permits for Ka like they did for GL the coping "NO THEY WILL REOPEN IT!!!" has been insane. Hopefully this will put an end to that.

At least for me when I don't feel anything for a coaster project like it's got a lot to do with whether I actually have a chance in hell to ride the thing.

Off topic but that's not nearly enough of a fine for Baby's First Credit Card Debt

Idk about anything else but pirate ships are also the only ride that are guaranteed to make me sick, no matter how rested, how fed, how hydrated, if I've ridden anything else that day, I'll always be nauseous coming off a pirate ship. Technical Park Pegasus, HUSS Booster, spinning coasters...
