Thanks for the information. We’ll see how things go and hopefully the weather isn’t too bad. -
Europa Park Discussion Thread
rcjp replied to Ultracoasters's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Hey guys, thank you for the previous advice. Does anyone know how their rain policy is? Because I don’t have many options to got there and the weather forecast might not me too good. Do they usually close rides (specifically the coasters)? -
Best Roller Coaster you rode THIS MONTH!
rcjp replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^It's funny that after a year without posts I'm coming here to say the same. Ispeed!! It was an awesome ride! One of my favourite coasters, now. Could be a bit longer but it packed a massive punch during the entire ride. Now I see why everyone loves maverick, given that they are a similar type of ride. -

Master thai at mirabilandia it was supposed to be a VR ride but for some reason only a few trains got it... It was just a family coaster, then -

Europa Park Discussion Thread
rcjp replied to Ultracoasters's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Hey guys, I'm currently studying in the north of Italy and was thinking of going to Europa Park. I have other parks to visit and not much time as some close in the end of October. I saw EP is open also in November and December but my question is if it is common for the park to close some rides in that time of the year because if it is perhaps I'll try to go there sooner. Thanks -
What's your closest coaster?

93 miles away from a crappy family coaster, 268 to a mack water coaster and 291 to a vekoma slc. So.. I'm pretty well -
Carowinds Discussion Thread

Strangely enough I have experienced the same thing. I've ridden extremely rough rides and only three have given me headaches, one of which was gatekeeper (in 2013). I used to think people were making this rattle issue up and so I was extremely surprised when that happened to me. I still consider most B&Ms very smooth, though. I find it amazing how I've ridden 20 year old B&Ms which were as smooth as it gets and perhaps that's why I find it odd that there have been these reports on some of their newer rides. -

Furius Baco at Portaventura. Still very rough but still amazing, though. -
The funny thing is that while you're joking you're still overestimating the wait times by a full 2 trains. I've been going to Dorney since I was a kid (mostly on weekends) and have never seen a 2 train wait for Hydra in my life. The Hydra queue is almost always empty. Even on weekends, the line is never past the staircase. However, I was there on a Sunday this year and somehow the line was going down the first switchback. Obviously this is Wow I must have been really unlucky. I've only been to dorney once and yes, it was on a Saturday. But later in the day the line got longer than in that pic and I actually waited 40 minutes for talon. So I find it a bit strange/funny when I hear people saying how ridiculously short the lines are.

I still have to say skyrush even though I complain about it being painful. I just haven't ridden anything quite like it since
