Probably the Garlic Twirl at Gilroy Gardens. Sure, it looks like a just a teacup ride where you sit in giant garlic cloves instead of teacups, but the whole area is landscaped with garlic, and you can smell it strongly at the right time of year. Makes the experience quite memorable!

I feel like this park has huge potential. It's always a shame that the locals to the areas of these parks complain so much. I think if they could load up on a few big attractions (including those Vekoma roller coasters) it could really take off even more than it has already. It definitely looks to be a beautiful place. If I visit Ireland one of these days I'll definitely check it out.

The next Alton towers in the making especially with residents that moan

They could've had an actual inversion by either: •Increasing the banking on the overbank to or past 135° •Adding a corkscrew on the big hill after the overbank, similar to Hades 360 Maybe they could've done both, and marketed it as having 2 inversions.

Seeing this makes me think of Holiday World in Santa Claus, IN. Small park with EPIC wooden coasters. Truly a (mostly) hidden gem.

This was a great video. I'm from Dublin and it was so nice to hear you talk about this coaster. It is a great ride and I was waiting for years and years for Ireland to be put on the map. You said some very nice things about it, about us. You almost made me cry. I can't wait for the new vekoma!

This is the last good amusement park in Ireland, My former local park was a historic park called Barry's Amusements, it is currently up for rent after being left to rot for 2 years. It was technically home to Irelands first wooden coaster and first roller coaster. It currently has 2 coasters SBNO, a Pinfari ZL42 and a Wacky worm, (of course!) As for Tayto park Cú Chulainn is their best ride, I'm also excited because those 2 new vekoma coasters have been approved! Finally we're gonna get a good steel coaster. That ZL42 absolutely brutal!

I live in Ireland and go to Tayto Park nearly every year. It's basically our equivalent to Disneyland but far more low budget. I remember going for the first time in 2011. It was cool.

Mr.Tayto is really creepy looking! They might of lied about the inversion, but the ride still looks amazing! The first person point of view shots are the best of this video in my opinion! Oh!

This must be the theme park, no one has heard of. However, regarding the ’inversion’, if your head is lower than your legs, technically you are inverted. I suppose the difference is between inversion and full inversion. In which case, 180 degrees is required.

They need a second wooden coaster themed after Guinness to duel with it!!!

I would love nothing more than Tayto Park to become a full fledged theme park with multiple rollercoasters. We've arranged for family trips to go to Alton Towers & Thorpe Park in the past, but it'd be nice to have a park to go to in Ireland.

Another great video very intresting

There is an inversion! A classified inversion is counted beyond 90°, it’s never been counted beyond 135°.

This video reeeeally held up a mirror to Ireland honestly, we needed to be shown how ridiculous this is

This seems like a very promising park. I doubt I will ever get to visit it, but the hope will be that it grows and continues to add great rides.
