Thank you~ lol As I sit here watching tis vid, my inner dialog was.. why do they keep stopping it? Another lift hill? hahaha I'd rather a shorter but more fun mountain coaster for sure.
This video is deceiving. It's quite fast and very fun. Riding this in real life, I didn't notice how long the lift hills were. This video makes the ride look kinda boring, but it was awesome fun!
I am a full-grown adult who has health issues that make adrenaline difficult to handle, so I don't get to ride many rides or coasters. I see a lot of people complaining about it stopping or being slow. I had an INCREDIBLE time on this coaster. It was exactly what I needed to feel safe and comfortable while having a blast. I rode twice in a row even in the pouring rain. If you want a thrill ride that isn't scenic or self-driven, ride a regular rollercoaster. This was invented for the rest of us. The scenery was fantastic and the ride was beyond fun! I'd ride every day if I could.
Boring but dangerous. People get killed on them all the time, because since the riders can control their own speed with the hand brake, you always have people breaking too much, and then getting clobbered by someone coming down behind them. All the boring slow downs are put in place so they can make sure people who are doing so ahead of you have cleared the way, but accidents still happen.
Like everyone I've got my limits when it comes to coasters. They're supposed to be thrill rides. Seems like the biggest thrill was getting off the thing so you can go onto the spinning teacups.
This has more lift hills than an Arrow mine train! And the block brakes throughout are really odd. I can sort of understand what's going on: I assume since they didn't have a really high mountain to work with, they simply repeated the trip up and down different parts of the hillside. It's a nice long ride, but one of the strangest mountain coasters I've ever seen.
Rode this in the spring at night. Full speed down. It can be alot of fun if you dont go slow. Yes there is alot of lift time but I did enjoy the rides down. No one was in front of me so it made it faster. I also tried the one at Ober Gatlinburg and by far the worst most painful experience on any coaster and found out the hard way if you catch up to someone it slammed me to a stop. Not to mention the track was completely misaligned. I like mountain coasters, but for the cost it's just not warranting many more tries.
Way too much time spent on the lift hills... You'd think that the beginning would be at the top of the mountain for a fun fast winding way down... Major design flaw .
@@jackh.9760 I think what they meant was that it should of just been one long lift hill up instead of multiple short ones, like most alpine coasters are. Instead, it just brakes whenever you start to pick up speed
Still heading up the lift hill but seems like a good first coaster. apparently from reading the other comments it's very boring and slow,so in theory wouldn't that be perfect for someone who's just testing the waters of rollercoasters?
The thrill comes from knowing that a branch could fall at any moment, hitting the exposed and tensioned return side of the lift cable, causing it to slice your head right off. How was this design approved?!
I know it doesn't look like it, but these things are actually probably the most dangerous roller coasters in the world. Since riders can control their speed with the hand break, every couple of years you end up with someone over applying the break, and another sled ramming into them, in a lethal accident.
You should visit bobejaanland at belgium there is a triple lounchcoaster but with a special feature everyone gets to vote to go forward or backwards the ride is called fury just putting it out there
Listen guys, I've been on this coaster, sure the lift hills suck, but the actual coaster parts are very very fun, you have to ride this to see for yourself, the video doesn't do it justice
Thanks for paying to ride this dud so we don't have to. After all that lifting i was thinking it must be one hell of a down hill. I mean how you climb more than go downhill. Are the laws of physics different on this hill? Was Dr. Who involved in its construction.
So having been on alpine slides in the past, this doesn’t do justice the kind of speed you feel like you’re riding at. The big difference is that the one’s I’ve ridden aren’t tracked like this, they’re loose sleds on wheels whereas this is upstopped to the track. You control the brake yourself and hitting those turns too fast might throw you out. Super long lift hills but these kinds of things usually you have to take a ski lift to the top for each run so you’re really getting 4 for the price one
Wow, that was almost as bad as when I got stuck behind a conversion van on a twisty back road 6 weeks ago that was so worn out that it looked like a drunk Weeble as it was going around the curves.
The main idea for a coaster in the woods with some small (mountains) hills is great. BUT during the ride there are too many stops and lifts. If you´re looking for a thrillride..... this would be the last place you have to look for. When I show it to my nephew, they asked me where the thrill was. Unfortunately I had to say "I do not know".... pls think about a new track with less lifts an more up and down in the track. Thanks a lot for the presentation
_"The sleds are designed to not come off of the track during the ride"_ ...I would hope so, sure & don't think there will ever be a problem moving that slow. Nevertheless, _waaaaaaaaaaaaay_ too slow. They forgot to add *THRILL* to the design when they put this together. The "Welcome to the top" automated recording was a great spot to get off, so I turned the video off . Sorry, just bein' real. At least I now know not to visit the Rocky Mountain Coaster Ride if I'm ever in the area. Thx!
I thought the last uphill meant it was going to be a very long, fast, thrilling ride all the way down, then all of a sudden, rides over!!!! What Happened ! ! ! ? ?
What a burn!!!! 90% of this is going uphill!! You go all that way to "the top" and only ride down about 2:00!! They actually spent money to build that??? Holy shit, even my grandmother would be pissed off after that!!
