FreeFaller Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 (edited) Hey guys! This weekend I had to visit my home park ''Holiday Park'' to see what's goin' on there! Since I haven't been there for a couple of weeks (it has NOT been the best time to visit the park (due to weather conditions- snow snow and have I already mentioned SNOW?!) I decided to go there! The weather was VERY nice for April and for a big surprise it wasn't crowded at all! Plopsa did some new changes like paving a new way to the ''Pfälzerdorf'' area and building a new restaurant called ''Maja Restaurant''. To make the waiting time at Expedition GeForce more enjoyable, they did a new game where you can collect GeForce miles! It's availabe in the App Store! With that being said, let's go on to the pictures!!! Look at that AMAZING first drop! Racing for the sky! New queue game! Scan the code to collect GeForce Miles! At the end of the season you can win an annual card if you are the best! 4.5 g-forces! What's that red thing behind the ''trees''? Ahh Intamin Goodness! No leaves guarantee this view! Awesome! Tabaluga got a new entrance! Do you want to build a boat with him? Check out the new Maja restaurant! Sun flowers! Here we go! Plopsa really love sun flowers! They create a good atmosphere in that area! Willy at Blütensplash! The singing Maja! Decoration! New created path to the ''Pfälzerdorf'' area Have a seat! The new path allows new views to Expedition GeForce! Yeah! Intamin! I really LOVE free falls! Thumbs up! No rafting due to maintenance! Sun goes down! More free fall please! Check out the Holiday Park museum with its mascot! There you can see several pictures of the creation of the park's attractions! Very interesting! Here we go with my lovely FreeFallTower! Do some shopping! With the annual card you get a 10% discount on ALL the articles! Palms in Germany? yeah! Last but not least! Expedition GeForce bill!

hansrubens Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Thanks for posting. Never get tired of EGF pictures!!! Were the lapbars on EGF still bearable after 10+ rides? ------Hans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreeFaller Posted April 16, 2013 Author Share Posted April 16, 2013 ^^Thanks! ^ Yes, they were. Leaving them open as wide as you can is great! No pain! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
televisedconfession Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Thanks for the update. It's interesting seeing so much of GeForce due to no leaves being on the trees. Also, I do not remember that section of the park with the flowers and bugs on my visit last summer. Didn't know that was there at all. Maybe I was drunk. Regardless, thanks for the update.

FreeFaller Posted April 16, 2013 Author Share Posted April 16, 2013 ^Well, I think when you don't live close to the park and you're traveling from far away like you, there are definitely better things to do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansrubens Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 ^^Thanks!^ Yes, they were. Leaving them open as wide as you can is great! No pain! They always seem to staple me in. ----Hans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werner Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 ^Well maybe it only hurts when your tall enough like you, Hans. Never get tired of looking at GeForce! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreeFaller Posted April 17, 2013 Author Share Posted April 17, 2013 ^Yeah, I think it's a problem of being tall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansrubens Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 ^ Negative I never had that problem and I don't have that on other Intamin coasters. It's been since they renewed the trains. The padding on the lapbar is a lot firmer. It stays the best coaster on the planet though! ---Hans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPDave Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Has this park changed a lot (landscaping wise) in the past 3 years or do I just not remember the place that well? I don't remember all the open space and stuff?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robinschroder Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 TP - you've clearly not been following our GeForce Weekend trip reports - we've been meticulous in detailing the changes to the park year on year! Ha ha Yes - Holiday Park has been reworked to the max in recent times! I confirm that the padding on GeForce's lapbars is so much firmer than on other Intamins I've ridden - the year where the 1st trim was taken away and the negative Gs were through the roof left us with pain in our upper thighs for a long time afterwards, we got so much airtime! Not a complaint, Holiday Park / Plopsa Germany / TüV - please take the trim away again!! It's not just due to height - I'm nowhere near as tall as Hans!
