I just love how Phantasialand manages to pack so many cool rides and theming in such a small area. All the rides are intertwined, the park feels like a maze (and that's a good thing at this park!) with stairs going up and down, winding pathways, etc. I really hope to visit this place again one of the following years, one day wasn't enough on a busy summer day to do all the rides (and Taron was down that day :( ).
That whole park has the best themes I've ever seen, and I've been to parks all over the world. Europa Park has better coasters, but Phantasialand can't be beat for atmosphere.
This is a FANTASTIC flume/water coaster! I love how many lift hills/drops there are, the reversing is awesome, theming is cute and that camelback element in the final drop is amazing!! I love this, wish we had more like this in the States.
I don't get why people are saying this is a cheap Version of splash mountain and Indiana jones combined (comment below mine says that) but I think this ride is bad ass!
J S yeah I’ve been on Valhalla, at the time I hadn’t but this is still my favourite, the sheer beauty of the ride and the fast yet nicely paced nature of the ride is what I live about it, for me Valhalla is awesome and feels like the absolute classic that it is, but you can’t see the ride from the outside and there are lots of moments when the theming ends and you are left in huge blacked out rooms for ages, I feel the pacing of Chiapas is perfect
This... This is beautiful. I honestly can't get over how much detail was put into every little aspect of this ride. It's mind blowing. I would kill to be able to take a trip to Germany specifically to ride this.. It's a stunning example of amazing ride design and complimentary theme being done right.
That is the best if not one of the best flume rides in the world. Nice themes. Nice length. Complexity with the moving rails moving you forward, backward, then forward again. Smoother lifts than I have ever seen. It even has a nice drop at the end and brings you back up. It really shows its is possible to have everything. Amazing video - wish I could go on this one.
@@user-ey9uj6vp9s This video goes over 10 in the world that they like - I like some of these (some of which I have been on). The one in the video above is amazing however. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MZdodSYiaUE.html
I am amazed by the amount of jealous people in the comment section, probably because of the fact that Chiapas is way better compared to Disney's log flume's in price/quality ratio.
No splash mountain may be old but it’s still a lot of people’s favorite ride including mine I agree this log flume is one of a kind cause it is probably hard to find but still Disney cost way more money than this and trust me I’d rather spend my money on Disney and go on a bunch of rides then spend my money on this one ride splash mountain has more entertainment ,it’s more thrilling,and it uses a lot more elctricity I do not agree splash mountain is NOT overrated
Joelle Robertson splash mountain is 100% overrated. Also phantasia land is WAY better than Disney. This log flume is not only faster but it has more elements. Splash mountain is absolutely destroyed by this ride in almost every way except for animatronics. Also why would you pay money to go to phantasia land only to ride this ride? Taron, black mamba, and other rides are way better than anything Disney has to offer.
For those who does not know what Chiapas Means,here's a little resume of Chiapas. Chiapas is a Mexican state situated on the southern region of México,and it is the Home of Palenque and Bonampak of the biggest cities of the Mayan civilization, it is also Home of La Candona jungle which is one of the biggest lungs of Latin American Region (second place just preceded by the amazona), Home of more than 4796K people, Chiapas is a great place to live due to its natural resources, people's hospitality and beautiful beaches!.
0:46 is the wettest part of the ride, the waves that slam into the boat soaked me a lot more than all the other drops combined! The best flume ride I have ever ridden. Awesome theming, surprise elements, insane final drop! I visited phantasialand yesterday (4/4/2014), very calm day at the park, all day the max waiting lines were around 0-5 minutes. With exception of chiapas, that had a 20 minute line max. Chiapas broke down too, and had to be evacuated. Luckily it opened again 2 hours later
This looks AMAZING! The layout is pretty, and the fact of a reverse log flume...this is ingenious and I really like the backwards drop view at 2:20 of its aestheticness
I love the Mexican theme and the coaster itself is pretty dope, will be going to Holland in September to study, I will most definitely be checking out what Germany has to offer.
OMG it looks like the best log flume ever ! and this park is just at two hours of my home ! I'm so lucky, I have Europa Park at one hour, Holiday Park ( expedition ge-force+ new premier ride clone of superman ultimate flight this year) and Phantasialand at two Hours :D What a great year for me !
Was anyone else looking forward to the rollercoaster part seen at 0:40 only to be dissapointed? I thought this was some flume-coaster hybrid like journey to atlantis
Went here a month after this ride opened, had no idea it was brand new at the time. Best non rollercoaster I've ever ridden. Wish I'd been at the park longer than an afternoon (residential school trip, you see)
Chiapas looks really amazing and it's very well themed. I live in Sweden near Gothenburg and Liseberg is my homepark. When i am at Liseberg i'm sometimes riding Flumeride sometimes and it's fun but it's also kinda a family ride but this looks like another level, Chiapas has an amazing theming it's pretty long and that last hill looks amazing tall and fast. I just need to visit Phantasialand some day in my life to experience all the great rides.
Best one I ever did, SO much fun. And two world records too, if memory serves (highest drop and steepest drop for a water ride like this). Went on it twice yesterday, got completely soaked :-D
I went on this when I went Germany and there was like nobody on this ride so me and my group stayed on it for about 6 rounds and I broke my phone 😭😭 so fun though
