Personally I like the rides at Gardaland but after one or two times I ride tham I have enough. The only exception could be Raptor but with no single rider is difficoult to get many rides now. At Mirabilandia there is probably less to do overall (if you are not into the waterpark) but you could easily spend one day just riding iSpeed and Katun! Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk

In September you should be fine, especially in week days because the kids are back in school. I think one day is ok to do everything multiple times. Personally I would do one day Gardaland and two days Mirabilandia! Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk

I'm glad I managed to try ride the original version but I am curious to try the loop too!

Thinking about a quick visit to Europa Park on the 29th. Then I have Heide Park and Hansa Park in May! Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk

Looks like a pretty good ride! The view from the edge of the first drop is going to be amazing! A good new dark ride will be another good addition in the future! Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk

Anyone here going to Defqon 1 next weekend? I will be at Walibi Holland on Friday before the Gathering. If you see me say "HI"!

Did you ride the INTAMIN monorail at Xi'An???

In the end I will buy one regular for me and one gold for my friend so we can get the free parking at all Six Flags parks and save 30 $ each for the fastpasses!

Since I am going to use it only once at Six Flags New England, is it worth it the extra 60 $? For the parking in the other Six Flags parks I'm visiting I already have another plan!

A couple of quick questions: 1. At what time is the early entrance for Gold pass members? 2. Which rides are available during the early entrance time? I did some research both here and with Google and I can't find anything!

Going to Gardaland tomorrow!

Personally I prefer the old ones. Never had any problem. Maybe some headbangs but I was probably not paying attention to the layout. With the new ones I always feel like that rubber part pushes too much and sometimes for me it's hard to breath when I reach the brakes (I'm 6 feet 2, 150 pounds). On a positive side I noticed that those newer ones like those on the wing coaster at Heide Park can be moved a little more than the old ones. I can't stop wondering: why can't B&M just remove that rubber vest??? Like this! (photo from RCDB)

Quick question: is there any way to save money on Europa Park tickets for 2 days? I have a discount from the European Coaster Club which gives me the entrance at group rates but I need another one for a friend. Any idea? I live in Switzerland and I thought maybe Coop or Migros have something.
