I've heard about this ride that it was brutally bumpy, and it does look like that to me from the onride I've seen... at least the ending brakes are just violent. Have you ridden it?

I'll take Phoenix @ Knoebels - http://www.rcdb.com/id143.htm, which can only be described as an air-fest.

Some reviews (9.7)- http://www.themeparkcritic.com/scripts/ ... RideID=426

It may not look like much, but is has to be to be named Amusement Today's #4 woodie. - http://www.amusementtoday.com/2005gtawood.html

not yet, but this is a coaster with a nice and compact layout. Including some really nice inversions. So i picked on look, not on the comments from other people. Usually it will get bumpy because the quick building the ride and breaking it down [;)] So one it's in a park, smooth it a little out. And ride on!

This one's not quite clean... So everybody could take a ride that is cool but just too bumpy to be fun and say "we smoothed it a little to put it in our park" [;)]

I had it on my list - that one and balder for the perfect woodie Out'n'back/Twister pair... But as Balder was gone, I went for the other Intamin airtime machine and another good twister. [:)]

@ Coasterkidmwm:
I didn't even know that summers woodie... I don't know why, but this shot looks pretty scary: http://www.rcdb.com/ig1254.htm?picture=2
maybe it's just the wheater and landscape...

@jimths08: The Heide Park woodie is actually named Colossos - just for your info.

what i mean with it is just that because it's continuesly(sp?) build up and broken down it get's rough. But just when a traveling get's to a park eventually it will be a little smoother.

Hmm, an interesting thought. I don't think it'll lose the roughness it has now; but I certainly agree that if it would've been installed in a fix location from its very first day, it would be a lot smoother. Or ain't that right?

I guess it would be at least a little smoother. [:)] Also I guess it's much harder to maintain a traveling ride then a park ride. So if it's installed in a park. B&M could stop by much easilier to maintain the ride so it runs better [:)]

That does look rather ominous. I think it's because the park is on top of a hill, so that adds to the sense of height.

Sorry to be picky again, I'm not sure if I got your statement right, but this is no B&M Ride... guess they'd be too heavy to transport. Eurostar was built by Giovanola.[:)]

I'd like Kraken please... You've gotta love the insane inversions, three (!) awesome underground segments featuring mist and water-spray effects, and airtime-filled first drop, all packed into one, world-class roller coaster.
