That looks so funny with all those chickens

This thing really looks just a funny ride mostly due the theme.

I feel like this will become a meme soon enough due to the wacky theme. First post!

Hun it's already a meme

Best soundtrack I've ever heard

This would've been really cool if there was at aleast a barn fa??ade behind it.

Well this isn't really suprising: The opening of Wilde Hilde has been moved to 2019

Dang, I hoped to catch a visit this year.

I mean its the least dangerous prototype, how could its opening be postponed a year?! All it has are some slow vertical turns and mild rocking, basically a Rockin??? Tug in coaster form.

The summer season is over, so the biggest crowds have visited the park by now. The park still hopes to do soft-openings this year though

Oh I understand now. Thanks RCT3andNL2stuff!

Statement from the parks Facebook page (Translated from German):

We report today with good and not so good news.

The official opening of "Wilde Hilde" will be postponed to 2019. We would also like to make the roller coaster available to our young audience. As a result, very many and extremely time-consuming fine adjustments are performed. Every smallest change is documented and has to be re-tested. And we'll do that until the overall experience fits in well with our younger audience.

We can understand your disappointment, but we hope and ask for your understanding. There is no comparable facility worldwide whose experience could be used. We continue to do our utmost to launch a soft opening in the fall. " A "soft opening" is a test phase in which the "Wilde Hilde" is under trial conditions in trial operation, but can be taken out of service for rework at short notice.

Surprise, turns out the ride is opening tomorrow at 11:00.

"Wilde Hilde" the totally crazy chicken coop opens tomorrow, from 11:00 clock, for you. Who needs to ride this unique roller coaster with you?

Apparently, this design was chosen for the trains. Just saw that on recent pics from the trains

Oh and apparently, the reason that the ride opened so late is because of the gondola's swinging. The swinging had to be adjusted because it was considered too extreme for families with young children

I'd like them to build a legit extreme version. Always thought it looked ultra tame in the video footage, but I guess that is intentional.

Great video of the ride inaction:
