AlpenFury Capacity Analysis & Thoughts - Canada's Wonderland's New 2025 Roller Coaster

[@MidcourseDiscourse]

I feel like not enough people are talking about how much of a departure this is from (legacy) Cedar Fair’s recent track record of “safe” additions. Family coasters, B&Ms… it’s so refreshing to see just a crazy and unexpected ride taking shape!

[@toxicghoul238]

It’s post merger so there’s a chance this was also six flags idea

[@Onion742]

Means KI has a chance at getting a Mack Xtreme spinner in the Vortex plot 🙏

[@MidcourseDiscourse]

@@toxicghoul238I’m sure there could be some say either way, but a project of this scale has definitely been in the works for quite some time, likely before the merger was closing

[@gtonyxkid2012]

@@toxicghoul238I doubt it. Since it was announced this year and opening in 2025, this project has probably been in the works for the last 2-3 years. Takes 9-12 months for manufacturing, 6-9 months for installation. Manufacturing and installation can somewhat overlap but planing and working with the manufacturer on a design/concept etc is usually 1-2 year process not counting the legality side of things such as zoning, permits, getting the project approved by the city. I’d say this process and project started in 2022

As someone whos home park is Canadas Wonderland, I dont think it ruins the mountain. We're all coaster lovers here and I love nothing more than seeing tracks and supports in every place possible, it just shows you what you're here for.

Glad you pushed this out fast cause I wanted to hear your in depth take on the capacity of this coaster. Also, I think the fire serpent roll looks awesome in the mountain sight line.

[@1DimpleFTW]

SO glad you put this out so fast, obsessed with your videos! Some insight from a Toronto-based rollercoaster enthusiast: A little worried about this queue wait time to be honest, hopefully they get creative. I'm pretty sure Leviathan and Behemoth premiered without seatbelts as well, but then they were added in. Wonder Mountain's Guardian used to operate with paid lockers and they only recently worked out a system to eliminate those so HOPEFULLY they can implement it straight away this time. SO excited to get our own launch coaster!

[@CZsWorld]

This looks awesome. I hope the launch is good. Full Throttle is awesome, but West Coast Racers is weak af. The elements look great too.

[@Sonic-gy7kq]

West coast racers is pretty weak. Its just aight. Its like a family coaster when that wasn't the intetion. Thats its problem. The launches on full throttle are great, but like everyone else says... it needs the other half of its layout😭

[@JungleJetAviation06]

If Full Throttle had WCR’s second half it would be a perfect launch coaster. Full Throttle’s launch is flawless and smooth, it’s just missing its second half.

Premier Rides also adopting that fast-paced design influenced by RMC and being implemented by Intamin, Mack, and Vekoma.

(Seems far easier than adding a second one to Flash: Vertical Velocity.)

I was going to say the same thing! There were actually two churches there, there was The Little White Church that got moved across the street but the mission style church was razed. Silver Bullet really destroyed that quiet area of the park.

[@culture_clash]

Holy crap! This coaster looks INSANE! What a treat for the Canada's Wonderland locals and a definite top-tier addition. Its interaction with the mountain, including its main launch going through it is freaking SWEET. This is just what they needed since their lineup has quite a few junk coasters that need to be offset by prime additions like this. Well done.

[@TonyKimtheamusementparkfan]

I wouldn’t be surprised if this overtakes Yukon Striker for the 3rd best in this park 😊😊 Behemoth, Leviathan, Yukon Striker, and AlpenFury all are just amazing.

[@JD-rox]

@@TonyKimtheamusementparkfanI think it’ll be number 1 at the park just because of how different it is from the other 3 B&Ms

[@SpiderWaffle]

Agree with Ryan's block zones! Wish the trains had four cars instead of 3, or different new trains altogether.

[@TonyKimtheamusementparkfan]

I think one of the biggest things that we should take from this is that Canada's Wonderland and Premier Rides really outdid themselves with this roler coaster. I mean I knew Premier Rides could probably do this, but it's nice to see that Canada's Wonderland wanted to work with them to see what they could do with the space. And they delivered! Plus this ride looks soooooo cool with it interacting with different pathways and with Wonder Mountain. I really want this ride to be a success for the park, and I think it will. Canada's Wonderland already gets really large crowds, so no doubt that this will be achieved. But yes, capacity will be affected because of the fact that there are only 2 trains and the trains are not really large. I mean the trains on Backlot Stunt Coaster are not the largest, so Idk how the Sky Rocket trains will feel, but I can't imagine they would feel any bigger.

[@bigpboy1012]

Wonder Mountain's Guardian began using the movable bin system that Yukon Striker has earlier this year. While I haven't been, I understand that park staff were very particular about what bags were and were not allowed on the ride (with anything that couldn't ride with you had to go into a locker).

[@Daniel_Coasters]

Wooo more block sections!!!! And another great video!!

[@Sonic-gy7kq]

These are the types of roller coasters we need. Intamin blitz style coasters are genuinely up there with RMCs when done right like Maverick. Mack tends to make them boring, but Premier, S&S, Intamin, and more companies im forgetting do them really well.

[@HumanStateOfEmergency]

This ride is beautiful. Off ride shots in the animation make me love it even more. Im obsessed with the floating support that connects to both of the roll tracks and the structure, shape and size of the supports sutaining the inverted top hat. Specially the right one that continues all the way down supporting the rest of the drop. 😍 I think Premier supports are my favorite. I have new appreciation for Premier.

[@austintayloradt]

Was at Cedar Point this past weekend and they were running 2 trains with probably 2 minute dispatches...checking seat belt and not allowing guests to pull down lap bar similar to Steel Vengeance - I really hope that improves next year, it's a capacity killer

Wonderland really should consider expanding more into their copious parking lots. Turn some of that ugly sea of asphalt into usable space for guests and attractions. They've already done that with the Leviathan coaster and It would mean not having to overlap so many rides in such a tight space.

I worked there the season that ride opened and the only reason I was able to save the 5 bucks on a locker was because I knew the people operating the ride so they could hold onto my stuff lol. since then i'm pretty sure they've added bins, but it's been a very long time since i've been on the ride.

Six Flags Great Adventure is my home park, so I can normally only make it about halfway through videos like this where a park is getting a new custom layout coaster. I start out happy for them and then remember it's been 18 YEARS since we got one. For Kings Dominion 50th anniversary - Custom layout launched wing coaster For Great Adventure 50th anniversary - low capacity boomerang that they got cheap because the original buyer had to back out. Oh almost forgot, probably won't even open in 2024 so I guess it's for our 51st anniversary now.

[@RideTheRollerCoasterMarcus1994]

what is cool about Alenfury is it's gotta a hint of maxxforce sprinkled in it's layout so it's very creative so kudos to C.W.

[@trentrissubsidiary4619]

Surprised he didn’t talk about this, I was thinking the same thing. Both the fire serpent roll and the dual inverting element Ryan compared to a cobra roll partway through the layout remind me of the “dog tongue” element on Maxx Force, just reshapen a bit. The more I look at the layout the more I can appreciate the difference between most of the inversions. Hoping it’s a success.

I visited Canada's Wonderland a bit ago and was surprised to see the faith space already gone in person, since it was something I remember using in my childhood with my family. On the bright side though, I did spot a new one (at least I think it's new) to the left of the entrance so I doubt there's any issues.

[@bargemaster_band_fl]

I agree about the trains. It's real hard to look smooth getting in and out of them, especially when you're tall and like the back row. Busch Gardens Tampa should do this with Jungala and not a B&M hyper. I'd even accept a clone of Alpen Fury, but would prefer that the changes happen that Ryan suggested about amount of trains and an unloading station, because this as it is probably wouldn't have the capacity Busch Gardens Tampa would require.

I want to talk about the lesser talked about record, that being the amount of the actual ride that is visible from the station! I know this area quite well! You know that feeling of anticipation you get sneaking peaks at whatever elements you can see from the queue? Here, all you're going to see is the beginning the launches, and a bit of the trains coming back. This is not me compaining in the least! It's just an interesting observation. Has to be just about the lowest for any coaster that isn't also a dark ride! I'm sure we'll be treated to a regular accoustic of screams every launch! Now of course, you've still clearly gotten a great view of the ride walking from front gate so the point is mostly moot.

We rode Dragonfyre, Wyld Beast, the mighty Canadian Minebuster, or Spinebuster depending on your take on it. Later Top gun and Vortex and that stand up that was stellar front seat (can’t remember the name but heard it was 1 of two).

I think the capacity won’t be too big of an issue, because Busch Gardens and SeaWorld both have Skyrocket coasters that don’t have the best capacity, but their higher intensity level lessens the demand a bit. (Which of course is ironic when you’re talking about Ice Breaker which was supposed to be a family coaster)

[@ksoccer2415]

I honestly wonder if Premier proposed two options: A three train version and a two train. Because the last two bunny hops feel so last minute and almost “autocompleted” that I wonder if they had another proposal with that being a brake section. I wonder if Canadas Wonderland ultimately went with the two train just for budget reasons though. As this is a super large investment.

[@TR_145]

Wonderland is my home park. I think a lot of people were apprehensive because our only experience with Premier is Backlot Stunt Coaster. I'm excited for this ride but I think the decision to only include 2, 18 person trains is a fireable offence for whoever made that call. This is Wonderland- not Michigan's Adventure.

[@amosnider]

Totally agree, not sure why they did not choose a 24-person train design for a top-tier attraction, that's more in line with Yukon Striker. A 18 vs 24 person train is a 30% increase in capacity while the additional operating expenses for a longer train would have been negligible. Not sure if a longer train design with an extra cart would require dramatic differences in track layout design/costs, with respect to the reasoning why they may have chosen a 18-seat train vs 24-seat train.

[@miotch8225]

Nothing wrong with Backlot. It's not super intense but it's fun and a great intro ride for younger riders looking to get into coasters.

[@TR_145]

@miotch8225 Nowhere did I say there was anything wrong with Backlot. But that's all we have to use as a comparison and if you are expecting an elite level coaster it'd be nice to have a frame of reference.... like we knew what to expect with Levi because of Behemoth...

[@huspy8168]

I have to disagree on the theorized block zones and capacity, I think there's one less block zone and less capacity than you've stated. Premier coasters have block zones set up so the train stops on a pair of slap brakes, which are always located on a perfectly flat portion of track with no pitch. The final brake run seems to be at an incline until it reaches the station, which would be able to host the slap brake as it's a perfectly flat piece of track with no pitch, which means the theorized transfer block may also be part of just the final brake block. In this case, multi move may be needed to get the train out of the brake block fast enough to allow the final brake block to clear before the next train passes the crest of the fire serpent roll. If they were to add an unload to the final portion, it may actually increase dwell time as you'd need to unload a train before you could dispatch the next train in order for it not to set up on launch 2, making an unload only pointless. As for capacity, the ride seems to be just a little longer than full throttle at magic mountain. If we look at premier's website, full throttle has a theoretical capacity of 650 - 700 riders per hour, which seems to be the target capacity premier coasters try to hit across all models. That's a theoretical of around 37.5 trains an hour, which is what I believe they're going to try to hit on this coaster as well. If this is a mistake is something to be seen, but I fully expect for this coaster to have an incredibly long line.

[@philhutchings7354]

The reference to storage track... there is a in the mountain tour on KZbin where the premiere engineer who toured folks around specifically mentioned the storage for the train would be in the mountain on a diverted track. The other train presumably would stay in the station. For storage or maintenance, the train will be in the mountain. Please review said videos.

[@TheCoasterSpot]

We do have an update on some things No Seat Belt Dropping Floor so no foot guards are needed Transfer Track will be in the mountain before launch 2 I agree that they should have done an unload though

The multifaith space was demolished to make way for the new station. The old building was a station back when the park opened.

What I want to know now is how a block zone starts and stops in the middle of an inversion

With a ride time of 80 seconds from brake to brake, I highly doubt it will hit that max capacity of 60 dispatches an hour. At most, this will send around 800 riders an hour (40/45 dispatches hr). I agree this is the biggest missed opportunity of the ride as I hear the lines get pretty slammed at Canadas Wonderland. As always great content!

My instant thought upon seeing the animation was "That's a B&M coaster" I've been watching your channel for so long I recognize the manufacturers by the rail design. "Produced by Premier Rides" ... I have brought dishonor to my family

[@BOOSETO]

B&M doesn't make launch coasters to begin with,

@@BOOSETO Idk if you are being sarcastic or not but yes they do... Thunderbird, Pipline, Hulk, and Rapterra are B&M.
