Good spot! Wonder if there will be a €15 upcharge...

I cannot remember where, but I believe I saw somewhere that it will be a 9€ or 12€ upcharge.

The new track is very obvious, and that 90⁰ thing looks cool

Wait, is there a new tunnel before the final leg of track? This looks so nice!

 

[Peet]

Love it, I reckon this could be in the same league as Wodan and Troy.

Another testing video!

Looks like it will be great! Bet it will ride faster though.

Visiting in a week and a bit, can't wait to try this! I last rode it 11 years ago so it's been a while...

A ride that people have always raved to me about and I've never understood why.

Hopefully this has done it some good

T2Z POV:-

The coaster re-opened today; it looks so good and well-paced.

 

[oriolat2]

Do these trains feature seatbelts? This overhaul looks amazing. The ride's pacing is great as well as the little touches like the nod to the old helix mid ride and the tunnel with mist and special effects.

the nod to the old helix mid ride

Did not notice this first time round, love it.

As great as RMCs are, I'm really pleased to see this as another way of rejuvenating an ageing wooden coaster without turning it into a steel one.

Looking forward to trying it, but of course I will be waiting for the Intamin.

Also, here's a backwards seat POV:-

That looks awesome. Anyone know how much they are charging for it?

 

[oriolat2]

I read somewhere it costs 15 €.

That thing used to crawl through the last helix so very pleased to see that it now takes the last half with quite a bit of speed.

I read somewhere it costs 15 €.

12€, including a fast lane.
