From the reverse POV I have seen it shuffles a great deal: there are noticeable jolts between first drop and immelman and coming into the brakes.

I am quite intrigued by the proposed Lion King area. This would be huge, if well pulled off!

I think there was a missed opportunity here to bill this as "the most shocking family coaster".

Aren't their rapids already #1?

The concept art looks amazing! Owning so little land, I am sure that Grona Lund will invest wisely. However, I am somewhat disapointed that they didn't go for a tilt coaster (as rumoured) or even an RMC Raptor, given that their sister park already has one of the biggest RMC coasters on Earth.

The one they had in 2004 and 2005 was not theirs, but it was a fairground model that they had rented from a Spanish showman to turn the park around. After a smashing success, the park wanted a permanent ride, but acquiring exactly the same model would not make sense from a marketing standpoint...

And to think that the new one will be almost twice the size... that one was scary as f***!

I am sure any manufacturer could produce a basic loop according to Schwarzkopf's original specs. Reviving this cursed project is coaster justice. Hopefully we can enjoy Monte for many years!

The terrain where it sits is completely flat and was home to the former top spin, so there will be no problems, I expect. As for the opening, the park stated that they want this to be running in Spring, hinting at a possible late-April/May opening. After all, this won't be as themed as El Grito...

I am sure after your many rerides your chiropractor appreciates El Condor as well.

Bump! Two days ago, the park held a press conference to announce some details about the upcoming ride, which is expected to open in Spring 2024. Height: 52 meters (173 feet) Capacity: 24 riders Minimum height requirement: 125 cm (50 inch) Cost: 2,400,000 € The park have also mentioned that...

Will there be a single rider line? Continous loading plus single rider line could make for exceptional capacity. I can't wait for March to see what Voltron looks like!

Uncharted (#484) I went to PA to ride Uncharted especifically and I had low expectations. It didn't disappoint delivering a poor experience. I would sum up the experience using this meme: Uncharted is essentially a poorly executed yet perfectly good family coaster. When riding Hurakan...

Parques Reunidos, Parque de Atracciones being the worst offender, have some of the worst guest service policies in the entire industry. Some years ago we went to guest services to complain about a safety issue we encountered during our visit, with pictures to prove it, and their response was to...

Plus they already have a second gate in Warner Beach, which is still to be developed into a full-day water park. As you mention, it is a much better option to round up their current line-up. Also, I wouldn't read too much into the Avatar-esque simulator: they state they are interested in the...
