asr Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 You know, one thing I loved about Superman at Warner is it's one of very few, (wait are there any others?), B&M superloopers with a "straight forward" drop. Twisting is fun, but you can't beat a great big drop straight ahead. Anyone else share this opinion? Dragon Khan, Medusa West, and Kraken atleast have straight drops. Anyway, cool update. I espiecally loved when Steve decided to crash a wedding EDIT: I just watched the Superman POV, and wow, it looks awesome. Very big and very fast. And did the airtime hill before the corkscrews have any ejector air? it looked like it was taken fast enough to have some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickey Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 Thanks for all the updates of your Spain trip! They have given me a good few laughs. Looks like you had a lot of fun and it makes me really want to come on one of your trips when I am a bit older. Thanks for the updates and the laughs, and for teaching me something… there are quite a few decent parks in Spain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPDave Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 Nice POV Robb, did you tape it to the bottom of the train? At the risk of sounding like a tagger on, yes it was on the bumper thing. Robb, thats not a union jack, very disappointed with you! But yeah, nice pictures, i'm already feeling nostalgic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 ^ Dave, did you just manage to post in a thread that has recently contained discussion of B&M coasters, without actually creaming all over the thread?!?!?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tömmioh Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 Thanks for all the updates Robb! Great times at parks and great times at bars. Unluckily I missed that wedding afterparty, looked like fun, hehe, I just had to get more than the average of 6 hours of sleep... btw. Does anyone remember the free sushi, sandwich-plates we got and the bar guy etc. antics on the last night before Mini-europe? Oh yeah I miss Spain. btw.The rapids at Warner Madrid are one of (if not) my favourite rapids ever, so many small fountains, mini things squirting water, it was really fun. And anyone going on a TPR-trip, I promise you'll SO enjoy it and have fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those rapids were my favourite of the trip too, VERY closely followed by the ones at Phantasialand, but for very different reasons. Miss you Dave, you're cracking me up!

larrygator Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 It's been less than the week and all these Spain parks are starting to blend into each other. I don't remember which rides were at which parks (outside of the coasters). Alzheimers, maybe? But at least I'm not as old as Jeff Johnson.

RonFrost Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Yes, the bar tender, Omar, was really great. He had that food brought over from the wedding reception, I think. When we were back in that same hotel on the night we returned from the mini-Europe trip, he gave us Panthers more free food. We took care of him with tips!

treebeliever Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 What an awesome trip! Perhaps in the near future I will join you guys. Also, the comic pic with the cat (is it Tom, from Tom&Jerry? not sure)...he's not really saying anything unless it has a meaning in catalán. I assume is their way to express a *gasp* or *shocked* expression. - Mary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveH80 Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Wow, looks like you are all having a blast. Superman to me looks like an amazing B&M floorless. It has a drop simular to a B&M hyper/air hill and in my opinion some of the best inversion elements. How would you compare it to Dragon Khan or even Kraken.

BeemerBoy Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 I never thought Lou sounded so... british. 70+ pages, and still my favorite quote thus far. Scott "Yeah, what's with British folks having a British accent?" B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airtime&Gravity Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Great tr so far, and Parque Warner looks like a really nice park. The coasters look amazing(well Coaster Express looks nice architecturally), and if all SF parks looked like this park, then SF be one amazing park company Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott "Yeah, what's with British folks having a British accent?" B. Hey, it might be funny to you, but for me, that kind of revelation is rather traumatic!! I had no idea I sounded British, and finding out from a stranger on an internet forum... that's just cruel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
