My son and I rode for the 1st time 2 days ago. The pretzel knot ending really unique and surprising. Plus the fact this park is mostly empty = multiple non stop rides

[@DDK_channel_1]

The pretzel knot ending you are talking about is a "Batwing". It is used on many arrow loopers, such as Vortex, Viper, and the other Viper

[@boltgaming248]

@@DDK_channel_1 the so called "batwing" you called it its actually a bowtie

[@thethreeparroteers]

@empty_channel_ are you perhaps talking about the vortex roller coaster thats located in Canada's wonderland?

[@gabedoesstuff429]

@@thethreeparroteersno it’s at another cedar fair park

[@The_MenraC]

@@thethreeparroteers no he’s talking about Vortex at Kings Island

[@RemixedVoice]

Still find it fascinating that this is the only coaster in the world with a bowtie inversion... Two half loops and two corkscrews, how could something so simple be so unique??? Lol

[@asdaiu]

This isn't simple it's cool

[@sharkarootwo]

Viper at Six Flags Darien Lake has the same type of inversion. It's a bit different in which direction it ends, though.

[@zachguest8565]

marineland is a negative park kiska died cause of them millions of animals suffer there help empty the tank if ya want thrills go to canadas wonderland and if that parks to far go to darien lake keep marineland empty help bankrupt the park once and for all

[@FilmedByRonya]

Its so cool

[@noosebrother]

wow that's like a long scenic commute between two ride elements. XD

[@brybryguy6314]

I'm happy I have this credit on this coaster, a few times actually. It is one of the craziest Arrows ever built. Fun fact. This coaster has the one and only bowtie element.

[@Coaster_Focus]

Yeah, this ride is very unique and I'm glad to have ridden it!

That's a killer drum beat on the assent.

[@appalachianenthusiast9499]

While I definitely do not believe that Marineland should remove Dragon Mountain, I think that they need to look for a supporting coaster or two. Both a Premier Sky Rocket II and a Gravity Group Family Coaster are not terrible ideas for this park.

[@wendyokoopa7048]

Yeah sadly the entire works maybe up for sale. Sadly due to virus discretionary spending including travel really took a hit especially in Ontario. I think Marineland was the only Canadian amusement park opened. Wonderland didn't open at all last year. Even Niagara falls proper wasn't really opened for business.

[@wendyokoopa7048]

They actually do have a 👪/ kiddie coaster simply called the 🐞 coaster. However the entire park has always been a contentious one around here due to the animals. So for any potential new owner the first order will be addressing the animal issue as its homes to many beluga, killer 🐋, many seemingly underfed 🐻, and 🐧.

[@appalachianenthusiast9499]

There actually is a new owner (the former owner's wife), and she is investing money into animal research and determining how to improve animal habitats in the park. Last year alone, she donated $10 Million, which also shows that the park is profitable. Since they are teasing a New for 2022 attraction as well, I can see what is in Marineland's future, and that is success.

[@wendyokoopa7048]

@@appalachianenthusiast9499 I hope that's true. It can be a great park and after the devastation the falls got due to cough cough they need this.

[@Metisp]

I remember seeing this on that old VHS: World's Greatest Roller Coaster Thrills in 3D! Even as a kid, I wondered why it looked so bare.

[@jd0604]

Was on this back in 92' My first coaster ride. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

[@RaptorZX3]

i went to Marineland when i was young, like 10-12 years old, and i remember being terrified by those big drops in rollercoasters. Well, i really liked it in the end, and when i was there, it was a slow day, so i was able to redo it like 8 times in a row without waiting! The part at 2:05, the cosmetic shell part around the track wasn't there back then, I've read that when the rollercoaster opened, the cosmetic stuff wasn't done yet, so the volcano part wasn't there and was only added MUCH later in 2006, and there was supposed to have waterfall parts on that stretch after exiting the first tunnel a 2:30.

[@kennethfharkin]

I rode that coaster back when it first open. I was young, 12 or 13, and remember there being no vegetation present. It was definitely cool being on a coaster which followed the contours of the ground so much. The last loops out of the long tunnel always stuck with me.

[@the3bros0S3]

Not to be that guy, but the last inversion is actually called a bow tie.

[@AirtimeThrills]

This is a really sharp POV, could I use it for a video I'm making about unique inversions? I'll give on screen credit and link back to the video.

[@Coaster_Focus]

Absolutely you can use the video, thanks!

[@AirtimeThrills]

@@Coaster_Focus Thanks so much!

[@Coaster_Focus]

@@AirtimeThrills no problem!

[@JBJblaze]

'Twas my first and still favourite roller coaster, and I've come to realize why is because, besides the couple of loops, the ride is otherwise fairly closed off yet open in the view of the ride. Nice POV, by the way! It takes me back to a dozen years ago! 👍

[@cgypsyg3890]

Rode this when i was like 7. Im 35 now. Me and my dad. Loved this ride.

[@spicygroggy]

Bucket list coaster. I hope they don't get rid of this coaster before I get a chance to ride!

[@Coaster_Focus]

It is quite the cool and fun experience, but I'm not a huge fan of the park where it is located.

Who took my rct3 creation and put it in real life?

[@PressStart67392]

I did this ride I was so nervous because the sideways flip, btw a couple time banged my left and right on thing you hold on, during a time where you get so much speed I tried lifting my head up that failed horribly. So if you’re nervous for this ride don’t be it’s the most fun ride ever and enjoy the moment.

[@gregorygolub3315]

How does this place still manage to be in business

[@eliasmertens9313]

It does actually get fairly high attendance for a family owned park. It’s just on crowded days, you don’t notice it because the whole park is the size of a national park. 😂

[@Legend-vm9uv]

@@wendyokoopa7048 The park is very bad, so much walking, terrible rides, and animal cruelty, worst park in North America and one of the worst parks in the world

[@loverrlee]

What’s really really weird to me is I once had a dream about a roller coaster almost exactly like this, but I thought it was just a dream and couldn’t actually be a real rollercoaster because of all the trees so close to the tracks, that it would take too much maintenance to trim all those trees around the tracks (or at least that’s what I thought!) I’ve never been to Canada in my life but I rode this ride in my dream… Anyway Rest In Peace Kiska you didn’t deserve your 13 year isolation and cruel treatment. 💔

Yes, RIP Kiska. I thoroughly enjoyed this roller coaster but I am not a fan of the park at all

[@brandonlangley1009]

This roller coaster looks fun to ride with all the tunnels and turns, however I don't think a ride named "Dragon Mountain" does not fit very well with the park's theme. When I think of MarineLand, I think more of an aquatic theme.

[@mdtorres_76]

I will miss this ride. 2007, twice. Marineland closed.

[@dibble1331]

Basically if Arrow Dynamics built The Beast at Kings Island.

[@Coaster_Focus]

Yes for sure

[@IainHendry]

Wow; that's running WAY faster in the last half! Those midcourse trims have really been adjusted wide open! So cool. It's been closed since mid 2019, so hopefully it'll be open next year in 2022!

[@Coaster_Focus]

Yeah, I rode it in 2019, I hope it reopens soon. It's super unique!

[@kimberlyortiz2635]

Weird ride. I needs 2 chains ⛓️ for the lift which gives it a unique sound. This is probably because the chain dog is might be heaver so it bounces less. It also has only 2 inversions, the butterfly( this might not be the name so pls correct me ) a unique idea for a inversion. It sould be used on a new ride.

[@HussFan]

I really hope this doesn't get closed. It's such an interesting quirky roller coaster. A one of it's kind coaster for such an otherwise insignificant park. Would be a shame if it closed down.

Coaster is half finished it’s embarrassing it’s like something out of RCT that someone made in 5 minutes didn’t care about how it looked or how it ran just built it to finish an objective.
