Hi, Exit. Wow, this indoor park is massive. Spinning Roller coaster!👀👀 I feel like I am getting sick. Indeed, there are quite a number of renovations. I wonder how long it will take to complete. Did you get on any rides while you were there? Thank you so much for your walking tour. Ta ta

Now that they've torn out the Mindbender, it'd be nice if they would put something from either Gerstlauer or Mack rides in it's place. Theme it to "Transformers" or something like that. I don't know, something like "Megatron's Revenge" or whatever.

I go every August with family on vacation and seeing the redesign is kinda sad for me because a made a lot of memories on those rides. I remember years ago when they had an animal safari arcade machine when you would catch animals and I probably accounted for like 1% of there profits from that machine alone. It’s gone now tho 😢.

Yes, it can bop you in the head if you aren't careful, but compared to something like Goudurix in France or Loop-it in Greece, Mindbender is smoooooooth like butter.

@@Furiously_HappyRN ya I’m curious what they will do. I’m not even sure how profitable Galaxyland has been the last 5 yrs or so because of COVID and everything, and in general less and less people spend money on this type of stuff since the age of the internet. So I’m not even sure if it’s feasible for them to get another custom roller coaster or anything made for the designated space. I have a feeling that whatever they bring in won’t fit the area like the Mindbender did. Somehow they utilized almost every inch of space with the design of that roller coaster in that space.

Thank you for the video. It is hard for me to understand the dynamics of this park. Do people visit from nearby areas casually? Or do people set out from 300 km away to visit the park alone? Do people stay in hotels nearby and just visit the mall for the theme park similar to a Legoland visit? We don't have these in the South East US, but would love to visit one before my kids out-age them. In an age of Disney requiring wealth and seasonal nature of Cedar Fair/Six Flag parks there appears to be a gap for these parks to spring up.

Considering how much of a kids park it is I am surprised they have not sold off that looping coaster yet. Its not like they could not use that room for something more suitable for the clientele.
@hailhailvi105 Жыл бұрын
The original reason that the mindbender (The looping coaster) and other more extreme rides were added is because the park wasn't as appealing to older people and they wanted a wider variety of people. I'm referring to the transition between 1983 (when the park first opened) to when it expanded in 1986.
