This
is one of the most cloned looping roller coasters designs ever. This is
because it's a compact design of a suspended coaster that allows for a park
to have a big attraction (assuming no one else nearby has built one) on a
reasonable budget.
There's
at least 20 versions out there, including this and Infusion at Blackpool.
This one has an interesting
setting. It's set in an area with a lot of tall hedges, giving the area a
nice atmosphere. The area around the ride, including the queue also gives
you some great views of the ride. There is a bit of theming by the queue
entrance,
but
it's so bad I think it would be better if it wasn't their. It looks like
something you'd see outside a village hall on Halloween, not like something
any major theme park should have.
My experience riding this type
of coaster has been mixed. Some have been poor, failing to get the potential
from the track layout due to an excessively rough ride. I didn't have this
problem on this version though, this is one of the best versions I've been
on.
The train tears around the track
at an exciting rate, with you passing around a good selection of ride
elements at a fast non stop rate with no dull points from the top of the
lift to the breaks. It doesn't rank as a must do ride, especially if you've
already done a copy elsewhere, but it's one I would prioritise on visiting
Walibi Belgium. |
