The layout reminds me so much of El Toro even though they aren't the same, just the way it's set up. Also that tree monster, a surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.

i had the luck to ride and operate the old colossos before she was closed for 3 years and even before the park installed trim brakes on the coaster ... before the makeover happened she had the old heavy trains like balder or the one in korea and i really miss the airtime colossos once had ... i rode el toro a few weeks ago and i feeled the airtime again colossos once had but without the first drop the first half of el toro feels totally like colossos and i loved it !

I went on this ride with my kids, about 5 times in a row! Really great ride! 🤩🤩

Lift hill was eeriely quiet. Nice set up for that drop

The robust acceleration in the first curve at 0:52 was so unexpected when I rode it, it made the anticipation of the 1st drop the scariest part of the whole coaster.

Classic!

I remember watching POVs of this ride on the TPR dvd's (being a coaster enthusiast in the mid 2000's)... and being blown away by this ride as well as Balder at Liseberg on the same DVD. It was one of my favorites; and that was before they put in that awesome dragon encounter! Had no idea they'd done that. It's brilliant!

Broooo that was amazing!!!!

Wow! Awesome!!

Great Job Austin. ✌

Yeah! I have been riding that!

The first half of this ride is exactly like el toro, but then in the second half the ride just does whatever it wants

This is practically the same track plan as The Mighty Canadian Mine Buster at Canada's Wonderland, north of Toronto. Though the MCMB's helix is enclosed and the track after the helix is much shorter, not offering the additional enclosure and fire effects. Great ride...Lots of air time.

After opening in 2001, the coaster became faster and faster. At some point it got so bad that the coaster was 20% faster than the calculations before construction. The train then constantly displayed "train too fast" in the operator status. The TÜV did not like this, which is why 3 trim brakes were installed at the time. However, these did not bring the desired result in the long term because the train was still going too fast. So now after retracking so many trim brakes were installed that really ruined the airtime.

My parents and I were there a few weeks ago. My brother (13) and I (14) both rode it... that was our first ride in our lives I had the feeling I was dying but to be honest I would ride it again xD I was shaking like hell afterwards but the long wait at extreme heat and fear of the start was worth it My parents didn't dare to go up there My brother and I sat in the back...if someone in the front or the middle should read it...how was it for you guys?(translated with google)
