A.J. Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 Honestly, I'm really not too upset that I missed the two Zyklons. The oddly specific ride names at Legendia (that one, Scary Toys Factory, Dragon Wrestling Tournament, Giant Water Pump, etc) were one of the best parts of the park! Though, definitely color me disappointed that some of the crazier flat rides like you mentioned weren't operating.
cfc Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 Pink needs to sponsor this ride. I passed on it because they were having issues with cars getting stuck on the final brake run (I was pressed for time).
MrSum1_55 Posted December 17, 2019 Posted December 17, 2019 Legendia was the weirdest park I have ever been two. They have two different Zyklon coasters with similar layouts. (Though these kinds of coasters are sort of a guilty pleasure for me). They have lots of odd flat rides and a weird looping coaster (closed on my visit). Everyone knows this park for the Vekoma looper, but it was still weirder than I was expecting. Getting there was an experience in and of itself. Katowice is very "Eastern Blocky." If you want to see what a typical Communist bloc city looked like, take the long walk from the train station to the park. I would totally go back.
SharkTums Posted December 24, 2019 Posted December 24, 2019 New Taiga video posted! Such a great ride, Intamin wins again!
Nrthwnd Posted December 24, 2019 Posted December 24, 2019 ^ That looks wonderful! Congrats to Linnanmaki Park!
ytterbiumanalyst Posted January 1, 2020 Posted January 1, 2020 Looks good! In-kind donations can go a long way for a place like this. Thank you for giving them support and publicity. I'll definitely stop by next time I'm in PA.
Nrthwnd Posted January 2, 2020 Posted January 2, 2020 ^ I think you meant this post for the Bushkill Park thread, perhaps? Just a guess, here.
jedimaster1227 Posted January 2, 2020 Posted January 2, 2020 I could definitely be ok with a Taiga clone making its way to the States at some point... What a cool layout!
SharkTums Posted January 2, 2020 Posted January 2, 2020 ^I think the BGW ride is going to be pretty similar, so it should be a win!
robbalvey Posted March 9, 2020 Author Posted March 9, 2020 Today we are not only celebrating TEN YEARS on YouTube but we also may or may not have announced our retirement from Theme Park Review! WATCH THE ENTIRE VIDEO!!!
bert425 Posted March 9, 2020 Posted March 9, 2020 CONGRATS! (and yay for surviving the death defying maneuvers of Barnstormer)!
ytterbiumanalyst Posted March 10, 2020 Posted March 10, 2020 Robb, you are such a troll. Congratulations on 10 (or 23) years! I'm very glad you've made this the best place on the web to discuss theme parks.
Nrthwnd Posted March 10, 2020 Posted March 10, 2020 Hey Robb and Elissa! Congrats on YouTube Year #10, and TPR Year #23! They add up to 33 which is a very lucky number to be, lol. Best Wishes Always and Thank You for all the work you've put into this site, and beyond. Needs several more candles, though. (o;
prozach626 Posted March 10, 2020 Posted March 10, 2020 Troll video is trolling... Love it. Thanks for everything!
Alice Kane Posted March 11, 2020 Posted March 11, 2020 I may or may not admit that that is the cutest TRP video of you two! Congratulations, and many more TPR anniversaries & amazing videos! "Stand by. Roll em! Action!" Alice
Gnome Posted March 12, 2020 Posted March 12, 2020 Damn, have I been lurking for a long time. Congrats TPR and thank you for continually putting out great content all these years!
SharkTums Posted March 20, 2020 Posted March 20, 2020 I've started what I hope will be a short series over on our Facebook page featuring videos from parks that should have been opening. Yesterday I featured Fury 325 at Carowinds as their Season Pass Holder Preview Day should have been today. Today I'm featuring a reason to be happy that parks delayed opening, Grizzly at CGA! Check them out to keep you occupied!
Nrthwnd Posted March 20, 2020 Posted March 20, 2020 ^ So where does Grizzly rank as Worst, among Anaconda, Jupiter, Bandit, White Canyon (RIP), etc. ? In your opinion?
SharkTums Posted March 20, 2020 Posted March 20, 2020 ^No where near those. I mean, it's boring and doesn't do anything, but doesn't try to kill you like those other ones!
Nrthwnd Posted March 20, 2020 Posted March 20, 2020 ^ Noted, thanks! Having never ridden it, but all the others (ugh), thought I'd ask. (I was going to add Colossus in Heide Park. But that was a "rain thing" that visit.)
SharkTums Posted March 27, 2020 Posted March 27, 2020 Continuing our virtual trip of parks that should be opening... Tomorrow Kings Dominion should have opened for the season. This one hurts a bit as I REALLY like this park. I305, Twisted Timbers, Flight of Fear, Avalanche are all great coasters. The park has some shade and decent food options too. I do miss Volcano though. Such a unique ride with so much potential. Let's ride it together on the computer! What do you like best about Kings Dominion?
Nrthwnd Posted March 27, 2020 Posted March 27, 2020 ^ Mmmm. I really would have liked to ride that, myself. Such a unique way of creating a coaster ride.
SharkTums Posted March 28, 2020 Posted March 28, 2020 Today would have been Lagoon's Opening Day. This park was always elusive to me as we always went to Salt Lake City during the winter for skiing, never the summer! I finally visited in 2015 and filmed this video as Robb had broken his ankle the day before! The park was 'interesting'. Some really interesting rides and operations and not quite as 'friendly and fun' as I was expecting from Utah. This was the highlight of our day, Cannibal! Your thoughts?
SharkTums Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 Six Flags America is a park that gets a lot of flak in the 'coaster community'. It should have opened yesterday for the season but once again, obviously, it did not. What would you do/suggest to fix the park up? Here's one of their worst coasters that Robb rode and suffered through just for you to enjoy the footage!
