Disneyland Resort Paris

Hi everyone,

 

First park of my new coaster season. Traditionally we go to Disney on the first week of february cause this time of year the crowds are light and the weather should be nice and it was.

 

We did have some snow but that was just part of the Disney winter experience.

 

There were no lines at all except for Crush Coaster which has a very low capacity and it has very bad operations. Now we only had a line of 20 -30 minutes but on crowded days this line is unbearable with lines exceeding 100 minutes.

 

On to the pics.

Thanks for reading.

This is such a beautiful ride but it's SBNO now for a couple of years. I wonder when Disney will get it up and running again.

Space Mountain was running well in the front for a moment I thought it was smooth but when we rode it more to the back it was rough as hell again.

Cool report.

 

What did you think of Tower of Terror and have you been on the others? I thought it was the worst one simply as it was to bright, you could see the all the walls. Seeing as its the same as the one in California I did not even find it as good as that.

 

We also found Space Mountain really rough and I dont know what they have done to Thunder Mountain but it was running so slow when we went in October.

Did you go on Indiana Jones too? Isin't the Indiana Jones ride in paris different from the ones in California and Florida?

 

Yes we did ride it. We've done two "marathon" sessions with 4 or 5 rides in a row.

 

It is a single looper model by Intamin and I think they copied it from Pinfari. It's my least favorite Intamin coaster though I liked the Intamin looper in Moviepark Germany.

1. The Paris version is the only one that I've been on. In August I'm on the West Coast Trip so I will be able to do the California version as well. So I don't know yet which one is better but indeed after a few rides I could clearly see the ceiling and walls. However I found the ride experience amazing.

 

2. Yes it is rough there is no question about that but my first ride was in front and it was a bit smoother there.

 

3. Maybe it runs a bit better when it's warm but i've didn't been on it in the summer for quite a time so I couldn't tell that but in my opinion it runs the same as it did last year.

We didn't have that problem with DLP's Big Thunder Mountain back in early July. It ran quite well, even when we got the very first rides on it in the morning before they let the GP on the ride.
