The seats itself are the same as on Silver Star. And yes, I think, they were tight. I mean, I like those the most, but yes. They are pretty tight. -

Oooooh me god. Blue Fire is so amazing. I luv it! LUV IT! Rode it two times today, and it was simply AWESOME!!! The Darkride Part at the beginning is... well. Supershort, but okay. The train rushes through the tunnel, with at least 20 km/h. You don't even have time to watch the scenery. The sound all around is just fantastic. It works with a deeeep bass, like drumbeats, and with the sound of a siren. Than the gate opens. OMG OMG! Frikkin intense Launch ahead! The Launch is smooth as silk, but far more intense than I thought - well, it's not the ultimate killerlaunch, but it pulls you quite into the seat. The launch part of the track is pretty short (35 Meters), so I think I know why the launch is actually intense^^ The Horseshoe after is probably the most amazing part of the ride. You know everybody talks about "Wooow, first Looping Coaster at EP" and "That loop will kill me" but it's actually the Horseshoe. It's not only incredible fun, but also intense as hell. Through the launch you get up there pretty quick, and I wasn't expecting such a steep curve at the very top. When you look on the photos, you don't even get an idea of what awaits you. It's even more inclined than the horseshoe of Silver Star, and that means something. Than you rush down and through the cave into the loop. One tip: Do NOT, I repeat, DO NOT put your hands up in the air until you are in the loop. Everything else would probably let you cost your hands. The cave into the loop is so basely, I ducked my head. And so did everyone else on the train. Believe me, I mean it. This cave is dangerous. Then Loop. Giant Loop - Giant Fun. From the watchpoint besides the launch it looks like the train is pretty slow at the top of it. But that's wrong. You rush through it verry fast. Than Hump. (Is it a hump? Can we call it THE hump?) The hump's pretty sweet, and just as inclined as the horseshoe. I think, it's EVEN MORE inclined than the horseshoe. You might think that it is an inversion, but it isn't of course. Anyway, up to the brake. The brake doesn't really decrease the speed. Well, maybe a bit, a few mp/h. But no much. You just hav enough time to clap your hands for applause. Than next inversion, giant corkscrew through the cave. The cave is far more safe than the first one. Here you can put your hands up if you want. You won't get injured. There's enough space over you. Right curve through the canyon and into the next corkscrew, this time above the giant volcano rock. One word: Sweeeeet. When you reach this point of the ride and upside turns down you think that the giant rock is a borer because it twirls under you. Funny to look at, really. Through the loop, left curve, and than.... OMG! Heartline Roll! Bam. The heartline roll is the most intense inversion I think. Maybe because the train isn't as fast anymore as it was at the beginning, but you judder pretty much in your seat. But anyway, also funny inversion. Right curve, final brake. Done! Awesome! I like it. I really like the coaster. It's smooth, it's got inversions, absolute awesome theming (as always), and you don't have to wait very long because there are always at least three trains on the track - one in the station, on in the darkride, and one outside on the track (When the secon d one reaches the final part of the darkride, the first one is mostly at the first brake). Yep. That's it. Go visit Germany and ride Blue Fire. You will love it. LOVE IT I SAY! I wanna hear an AMEN! Oh, and by the way, later today, I rode Silver Star in the Front Row with Roland Mack -

"Können wir was heißes haben?" - "Klar. Setzt euch zu den anderen!" Superb funny trailer. I will be at Europa Park at Saturday (Opening Day of the new season) and will ride this at first! I'm so excited. I'll take my camcorder with me, and I will make an offride video for sure, maybe even onride. We'll see. -

Lol, these kind of machines are so usual in Germany. The ones with tracks are also used, but not very often. Mostly it's this shown type. Because you can drive with it far better on the streets. -

Yupp they're testing it at the moment with 2/3 speed - and it already runs through the complete track! Awesome, nothing more to say. Can't imagine how great it will be at full speed. -

As german member I am forced to upload the newest pictures of course... And that's what I do. So enjoy the pics of the new and actualized Parkmap, including three languages, and the new Island-Area with it's little village, lake, waterfall, and the new Launch coaster. The Parkmap will be available for free from Day one of the new Season of the Park. Besides, I think this is a pretty good chance for these guys of you that never went to Europa Park before. Now you can... Not really, but I think, the drawn map is just incredibly detailed. I love it. -
Mystery Mine...IN THE RAW!!!

Well I like Gerstlauers Coasters. Mystery Mine's got a nice theming and very atmospheric music... But it looks kinda... slow?
