Untamed Review, Walibi Holland RMC Hybrid Coaster | Best Roller Coaster in Europe? 

This thing is so small yet it hauls through the whole layout... This thing really is insane!!!

I’m dutch and I love this coaster, but I prefer Taron because of its beautiful theming and it is an amazing ride.

Definitely the best review that I've seen for Untamed. This looks like my kind of ride. I love rides that are always doing something interesting.

This RMC looks absolutely amazing. It is like my dream coaster, it's got airtime, pacing, inversions, wip, hangtime, pretty much everything you would want on a coaster besides posatives. It looks a lot like Twisted Timbers in a way, just airtime hill after another after another and you spend more time out of your seat than in your seat. Great review!

Ridden this a few times and it just amazes me how a coaster which looks small on scale manages to keep such a high pace throughout you really go into the brake run with so much speed left. I love the final inversion it's so low to the ground and took my breath away when I first rode it

Great review for a great coaster! As you say the coaster is relentless and the mixture of the inversions and crazy airtime makes a trip to Walibi Holland certainly worth it. I just wish it was a little closer to home because I really want to get more rides on it. Granted both rides I did have were in the back row so I'm not complaining. Keep the good work!👍

Great review, thanks for using our footage!

Definitely one of my top bucket list coasters in Europe - it looks awesome!

Great video! A solid in depth review. I hope to ride this some day!

That looks amazing, great review of a beauty

Nice review! Untamed is my 2nd favorite coaster with only Taron ranking above it, mainly due to the restraints. I've also ridden Robin Hood and it was definitely not smooth in its last year, but it still had some decent airtime. The operators actually allowed me to check the restraints and dispatch the train for a cycle, so that was pretty fun tho

I absolutely love this ride! It is my #1 coaster overall. It takes a while to warm up, but when it hauls, it hauls! I got to talk to a ride op who works on Untamed after the park closed and he told me, that on warm summer evenings, the coaster is even faster than it is advertised, around 95-97 km/h and you can really feel it because it seems the entire ride is out of control. Let’s hope the theme parks will open soon (and that it is possible to travel to the Netherlands) so we can enjoy this beauty of a coaster again!

This is my favorite roller coaster by s long shot. I havent ever ridden rollercoasters outside of the Netherlands amd Germany, but this thing is just insane! It doe not lose its speed and it keeps hauling until it reaches the end. I am glad this is at my home park, it is an amazing edition. I have ridden it 3 times, but i will be riding more troughout this year.

Awesome video like it ride look good keep going brilliant video 😄👍

aw, all the bears having a good time made me smile @ 3:15

I'm glad Vekoma is selling Rocky Mountain Construction's rides in Europe, because Europe already has amazing coasters, but adding RMCs there is a major thumbs up. I mean we had Wildfire, Zadra, and now Untamed. Hopefully Vekoma and RMC can continue to work together to sell their rides in Europe. Both are doing so well individually, but I'm happy with this partnership :)

That thumbnail is amazing

I Love Untamed, It's just such an insane ride! I personally Prefer the frontrow because of that Dubbel up sideways turn, It's just amazing in the front. For Robin Hood, it's better that it's gone. I've done it in its last season and how good your ride was depended on where you were sitting. Sitting above the wheels (front or back row of a carriage) already or sitting in the middle made a huge difference in bumpiness. Also you either had to sit in the front car or in the last car because the 2 middle ones just felt like they were constantly hitting and bumping against the cars around them.

It's really amazing how fast RMC has grown since it started. It's really a feat.

Just rode this on October 29th for Fright Fest.. We had fast passes so we could ride over and over all day and night.. They had zero lights on for Halloween and the back seat in pitch black was the most insane experience I have ever had on any coaster.. It was a non stop ride of total insanity. For sure going to come back again next year for the Halloween Fest.. They do an AMAZING job with the rides and the crazy lighting and sound on all the rides.. I did get some footage of the rides and the lighting for Halloween which I will put up once I return to the states..

The video with the giant teddy bears is so cute to watch

I went on it yesterday, it was my first rmc, it was so amazing and smooth it didn’t even feel like a real rollercoaster, and the airtime and hangtime damn.

I went on this one yesterday and it was amazing. I was terrified while riding it though because this was my second time ever in a rollercoaster but in the end it was very enjoyable

Definitely one of my bucket list coasters. I expect this to be up in my rankings with lightning rod (currently #1) and I have been on SteVe

Looks absolutely wild...

The name fits so well. From the POV, it really looks a wild horse trying to throw you off

Walibi is mine home park. I've ridden untamed like 400x. And its my fav coaster of all time. Mycoaster count is 160

Im so glad this is at my home park i remember going to it on opening day and i was shaking like hell i have ridden it 167 times so far

This ride seems like wicked cyclone if all of the problems were fixed, and I absolutely loved what wicked cyclone was trying to do, so this ride is gonna be insane, I think twisted timber’s is probably slightly better as the best small scale RMC but I could definitely see if untamed is better

proud to have this at my home park

It may be the best coaster in Europe, but not for much longer when kondaa opens haha. Love your vids, bro

This was the first ever rmc I did and I was just blown away, I didn’t even know what had happend to me in the ride it was so good.

I never rode untamed but it looks very cool! That’s on my bucket list of coasters!

Just rode this for the first time yesterday as my first RMC... oh my god. I've never felt airtime and aggression like that on a coaster before. 10/10.

Love the guys shirt at 9:09

This thing and Wildfire are my two bucket list coasters in Europe, hopefully when the pandemic is finally over, I'll be able to travel to European parks.

Out of all the RMCs this has my favorite layout.

I cant believe that we have no RMC in the UK yet. The Grand National at Blackpools Pleasure Beach is that old it is rough and could do with a retrack ! A RMC duelling coaster would be great.

its in my homepark and the problems it had are reduced by like 70-80%. absolutely love the ride and always ride it when im in the park

Robin Hood was great FUN, it had a great layout and pacing and wasn't neutered with a slowed lift hill or ANY trims. It was actually pretty rough, even after retracking, but not rough in a painful way if that makes sense? More of a "out of control" wooden coaster kind of way. Like a persistent rock n rumble. I rate it 8/10 cause there were some truly extreme airtime moments in both the front and back, and both seats offered such a different ride. I have NOT been on untamed. It looks absolutely breathtaking. The first drop looks weak compared to most RMC's but the rest is taking my breath away even on POVs. The airtime in the back seat looks other worldly.

wait does the lift say "love?" and DAMN that last barrel roll looks EPIC

Since Vekoma had only built three wooden coasters, and since this was their prototype, and since, as you pointed out, it was not a clunker, I would have thought it would have been worth saving for the future as a woodie. I suspect that the ACE group might have argued for that if it had been in the US. While it's possible that the cost of retracking wooden coasters is more expensive than having RMC redo it, I suspect it's more about a park having RMC bragging rights and attracting a particular ridership. All that is understandable. I hate to see so many old wooden coasters disappear. A new RMC is great for those who love them. Replacing a good old wooden coaster with an RMC hybrid may wind up a shortsighted trade. But that's just senior me talking. My only experience with an RMC was Wicked Cyclone, and I didn't have a good time on it. I appreciate RMC's engineering and creativity; they make coasters for the current generation of riders, and from your reviews, it's a match made in heaven.

I once went there when it was going to rain all day, so there were almost no people in the park. There was mostly rain in the morning, and a little bit later on the day, so we were lucky as hell. Untamed had a max queue time of 5 minutes, and that was the longest of the park as well. I could get on other rides instantly. Kinda chose the best day to go there lol

Best RMC in Europe and best airtime machine in Europe. This ride has so many of these ridiculous sharp ejector pops that you really begin to feel on your legs after several rides. The four mini bunny hops at the end still provide my favorite airtime ever!

It would be AWESOME to see a wildfire (kolmarden) review! Thx!

I went there yesterday and untamed had to shut down the two times I went on it. The second time they had to take off one train. But the ride was still amazing and I think it is my new favourite coaster.

I could easily get their (not now obviously) and this has really made me want to go more

Going true the tunnel and being 6 feet and just 16 yet is somethin' that legit scared me when I rode it 😨 and the airtime is enjoyable strong and it has in my opion the world best pacing on a coaster

This ride is awesome! I personally prefer Taiga and EGF, but god damn this ride looks great! Can’t really decide wether this or Wildfire is better tho...

Im dutch and i've ridden quite a lot off coasters in western europe and for me untamed is the best coaster i have ridden.

AHHH I WENT IN IT YESTERDAY IT WAS SOOO GOODDDD

Is better than Zadra or Wildfire? mmmm, good video! 👍🏼

Did ride it today. It was my first RMC and I agree this is a 10/10 coaster. Ops could be a bit better they were stacking the trains the whole day sometimes the second train did stand like 2mins in waiting position till they finally sent out the other one.

2:51 element is so good

Have you ever played those God of War games because for the past two days I’ve been thinking about future roller coaster themes and I had an RMC Hybrid or RMC Wooden Coaster themed to the games in my head

This may be the second most airtime-centric rollercoaster in existence (after Steve) That or Twisted Timbers. They both look like airtime central.

This is my favourite

Is it typical of RMCs to have a big speed differences in tbe late afternoon vs morning? I've only ridden Untamed and Zadra, but they were both very noticeably faster later in the day. Other coasters seem to have much less of a difference. Untamed actually felt sluggish in the morning, which I did not expect, but decently quick around 4pm (though I'd have preferred a little bit more speed even then). Zadra went from fast in the morning to "holy crap this is out of control" later in the day.

I'm surprised about your opinion about the double inverting stall, as that element sadly didn't do too much for me. I feel like the ride really starts to shine in the return trip, as everything from the double up on is absolutely relentless and aggressive, but before that it's still really good and even the weaker elements are still fun.

wowww

rode it 9 times yesterday ( waiting time was between 5 and 30 minutes throughout the day) with the restraints as loose as possible for maximum airtime :) if i have to state 1 flaw ( which is also a HUGE positive ) it's that all rides in the park feel very weak after this one

My home park! And untamed is king!

Untamed, Goliath, Lost gravity...Walibi is amazing.

I wish I could ride this how does it compare to zadra?

Top 10 in the world One of the best RMC’s

The name is aweosme

europeen parks should invest more in rmc coasters. except for untamed i dont know any other. would love to try out a rcm raptor. energylandia has one but is to far to travel from my native land belgium or are the others?

No wonder that this is my favourite coaster🔥🤷🏼‍♂️ but mabye Zadra or Kondaa will take the spot but I think Kondaa has a better chance to get my new number one as Zadra. Kondaa's layout look as perfect as Untamed's but we will see😁

What's the section or part of the ride you did like the most?

How do you have the time and money to go to all of these international theme parks?

That thing you said about RMC having to go through venom a for European it really makes me think does b&M love intamin or gravity group love gci

Untamed is very good, but, being tall, I felt really cramped up in those overbearing reatraints. That kept me from really enjoying the airtime. I still take Troy over this as my favourite ride in the country. I'm just a bit contrarian like that.

This ride will always be my number 1, with Zadra and Iron Gwazi behind! SteVe can go cry at number 6.

im going to ride it this summer, my expectation is at least top 3

Love it when people think 1:30-2 hours is a long wait, cedar point is my home park you’d be lucky to find a 90 minute coaster wait lmfao

Heavy elements, yet whisper quiet… a dazzler, a dream, a delight. Watch the POV movie by Walibi. The sounds are so blissful… A constant warm whizz and an occasional clicking sound. That clicking sound is a tally counter, registering very specific thoughts of the riders on board. It clicks every time a passenger realizes that they feel more affection for this ride, rather than for their actual life partners. One side note; somehow the dispatching was tedious to watch as a single rider. For my future visits, I probably will get the fast-pass to handle that

this thing is insane, especially at 11pm at night after it has been running al day.

Better than zadra?

Did you like wildfire and untamed, two RMC coasters?

I think i rode robin hood before the retracking because it defintitely did beat me up like damn

I want RMC to start making unique elements

Untamed is still mainly a one car ride. Been to walibi 3 times in the last 3 years and it was always one car.

Say whatever you want about the ride, it's amazing; but you cannot dispute the fact that these teddy bears on a roller coaster are the cutest things ever :D

Well, robin hood not being that rough is not something I would fully agree with as a frequent Walibi visitor. Compared to Condor (the first ever vekoma SLC), it was "smooth". But if you would not sit in the middle of the 6-person cars in the train, you'd absolutely leave with a headache.

I had no idea that the people that live in Holland resemble bears! : )

Definitely my favourite coaster but sadly I only got in 2 rides.

The issues are gone. Ow and they are retheming all of the park in a festival vibe. That's why it kinda feels like a party aswell

Since when is 140' considered an inversion??

There's actually one thing about Rocky Mountain Construction that prevents them from being my favorite roller coaster manufacturer, and it's those leg restraints on the lap bars that push against your knees. While those don't affect me at all, they do make it extremely difficult for my mother to comfortably fit in because she had knee replacement surgery a few years back, and those knee restraints cause he to bend the knees back too much which can make these rides extremely uncomfortable for her when going over those ejector hills, and that's not fair because it causes her to miss out on some of the most amazing roller coasters in the industry. Even Lightning Run at Kentucky Kingdom has those knee restraints as well, and that's not even an RMC coaster. So what I want to know is why do these coasters have thise restraints in the first place? F.Y.I. If the answer is to prevent guests from standing up while riding, I don't see how that's possible. If a lap bar is pushed all the way down to your waist, standing up should be unheard of.

9:46 i mean, rmcs don't really focus on +'s. So to me that wouldn't really be a weakness.

I have no doubts that this is an elite coaster, but I find it hard to believe it's better than Zadra. How do you think it's better than Zadra?

Still looking for that 5th inversion

This thing looks amazing. I think this and Ywisted Timbers look like the best small scale rmcs. I rode Twisted Timbers all the time before the pandemic and based on my experience on that, I think it looks a little better than Untamed. Mainly because Untamed looks to be less aggressive than Twisted Timbers, and It doesn't have a triple Camelback lol, but it could surprise me with its length.

Robin Hood was sooo rough! I usually skipped it when i visited Walibi. Same for their SLC, so shit 😂

I love Untamed, but I kinda prefer Wildfire at Kolmården.

Bears in coasteeeeeer

I love Untamed an it is my no1 but I don’t think that it is the best Coaster in Europe, Zadra, Taiga, Wildfire and when it opens Kondaa and The ride to happiness are in my opinion probably better rides. Hopefully I can ride some of these this year.

One of the weirdest things I've ever seen is that Untamed first ran the full train in the morning, in the evening they somehow closed the back car, and even later in the evening they closed the second to last car... I don't know what's happening here but I can't imagine that this is what all RMC's do

Is it still your favorite in Europe?
