Ranking EVERY ROLLER COASTER at Europa Park!

I rode every roller coaster at Europa Park, and because I'm a giant nerd, I just HAD to rank them. Here are my potentially controversial rankings!

[@ThemeParkTeeroy]

Take a shot every time I say the word “experienced” in this video if you want to get hammered!

[@danielmeyer970]

U did a top 20 rides before the germany trip. Will you do a top 20 after?

[@Veri183]

So glad to see some Can Can Coaster appreciation here. This ride has such a rich history. The layout was designed by Franz Mack, founder of the park himself, and for many local kids (like I was) back then this was the first thrill coaster they would ride. It used to be called Eurosat and had a space theming. I swear: The forever going spiral lift was pitch black and the soundtrack in the early years (before they changed it to techno) was so intense - it was terrifying as a kid to ride this for the first time. When they refurbished it to Can Can Coaster they kept the original layout (in honour of Franz Mack), however, swapped the entire track, trains + did some improvements here and there. The ride is now a few seconds shorter as the trains pass the layout a bit quicker and that makes it so, so good. Euro Mir's layout also is a design by Franz Mack. The ride has gotten really rough in the past years and is prone to technical issues, so I hope for a re-tracking in the coming years, in a similar way as they did for Eurosat Can Can Coaster - keep the layout overall with few improvements, new trains but never change the lift soundtrack (!). Euro Mir kinda is the forefather of Time Traveller and Ride To Happiness, so again, another coaster with a great legacy.

alpenexpress has a special place in my heart. you should have rode it before it burned down and i think that would have been your "i get it" moment

[@ThemeParkTeeroy]

Yeah the theming looks much better on the original, I wish I had experienced that too!

[@therenas]

Voltron was the first rollercoaster where i was genuinely worried about the quality of the restraints. I was like "if these fail im going to tumble straight to the ground or shoot out into the bushes". My first thought after the ride was: "i think I'll pass on a second run right now, because I need time to process what just happened."

[@danparker3093]

Some strong statements about Voltron here; looking forward to the full review! Cool to see Americans going over to Germany having a good time, as a Brit who was taken to Florida every year I grew thinking Europe parks were all trash, then Google came along and I found out it was just the U.K.!

[@ThemeParkTeeroy]

It really did blow me away, such a uniquely insane coaster

[@StormtrooperMr12]

My Family goes to the Europapark since i wss 5-6. always was a bit scared of heights, so for the longest time i didnt roy ride any of the coasters, but i always had fun and i think thats one of the best things of the park. As i grew older and started riding coasters a whole new world opened. The best thing of the Park is that there is something for anyone. Every year i went there i had new things zo discover, because i was finally big enough to ride them. Its a perfect park for kids and adults and i think that is what makes it so special

[@HoundZvsxEa]

My controversal ranking: #1 Arthur #2 CanCan Coaster #3 Wodan #4 Silverstar #5 Blue Fire The rest is interchangeable besides Euromir being dead last because of its roughness. I have not been on Voltron yet, but it looks like it could easily be in the Top 3, maybe even number 1.

[@Chessingtondragonfury]

You’ll notice a theme for these coasters all but 2 are made by Mack rides, that is because Mack owns the entire park.

[@ThemeParkTeeroy]

I love the way Mack runs the park!

[@hansiminator69]

Thankfully I live „near“ this park. It’s awesome! :)

[@christophwinkler1655]

I'll call it "Schweißa Baba" from now on

[@JarosawCiulak]

I want the turntable section to be completed (for this season it is what it is). Couse if this section will be as cool as the launch section at the begining, with more effects and more pacing this ride can be europes best coaster. At least in mine opinion. VOLTRON AUF DIE EINS!

[@therollercoasterfan2682]

Voltron auf die eins!

[@JarosawCiulak]

Voltron auf die eins!

[@borstenpinsel]

Did you realise the reason for the sideways movement on the lift of Matterhorn Blitz is not (just) an effect but it's actually to make way for a second lift to go by. The layout is like this: | () | This allows the loading of a cart on the bottom while the previous cart is leaving the lift in the top.

[@ThemeParkTeeroy]

Yep! It’s both practical and unnerving from an on-ride perspective, Cobra’s Curse at my home park does a similar thing, except the trains don’t tilt, the track just moves slightly sideways

[@borstenpinsel]

@@ThemeParkTeeroy Ah, Mack as well but 17 years younger, so they improved the idea :)

[@viktorvongiekanne1598]

To truely feel the airtime in Silverstar you have to go to row 5. Its marked and the only row I experience the airtime in the first half. You should definitly give it a second try ;)

[@DonMattoncino]

Great ranking! I’ve been to the park three times this year and I have to say Voltron is a true shocker. A bit sad you didn’t like Alpenexpress Enzian though. It’s such a wonderful area and I like the ride very much. 😊

[@ThemeParkTeeroy]

Thank you! I’m just not the biggest fan of powered coasters, although I do love the walkthrough area around it and the interaction with the flume! Great area, just not my favorite ride experience

[@Alex_Coaster_Adventurer]

I think there is a pre fire Alpenexpress and a post fire Alpenexpress .. the pre fire one was soooo much better with the ride through the mine

[@Matzcoaster]

Euromir has a unforgettable soundtrack but yea its pretty rough

[@DruonGrawal]

I love that you made the Can-Can-Coaster your No. 3. Most coasters you will sort and compare by objective facts, but then there are the few strange and odd ones that simply evoke feelings or memories that make them special beyond their mere stats. I vividly remember Phantasialand's take on Space Mountain with "Space Center", a Vekoma indoor coaster. It was at the time a thing of pure beauty, a lot of that due to the theming present on the coaster and along it's queue. That it my childhood coaster love and I wish I could be back to marathon it. The husk of it is still around, you may have seen it under the name "Crazy Bats". In between Space Center and Crazy Bats it was known as "Temple of the Night Hawk". Sadly, no subsequent version could ever match the original appeal.

[@ThemeParkTeeroy]

That’s one of the most beautiful parts of theme parks in general, finding surprising amounts of joy in things you never expected to like. I went into this trip having not even ranked Can-Can Coaster as a ride I was excited for, and left with it as one of my favorites. That kind of stuff makes the trip so much more special

[@ThePatriko125]

Nice job, this is a good reasonalble ranking and i agree for most of it. Europa Park is the showcase of Mack-Rides, which is why some of the roller coasters there are prototypes, like “Euro-Mir”, “Poseidon”, “Blue-Fire” or “Swiss Bobsleigh Track”. That's why they are rather boring because the technology was new and untested at the time. Plus: some roller coasters come from the pre-computer era, so no simulation beforehand. I'm a Europa Park fan boy and if you have any questions I can certainly answer them. Good video! Best regards from Germany, Patrick

[@flauschibusi3205]

Your list is pretty spot on for me ^^ Your hot take on Eurosat is, for me, not a hot take at all. I love this ride. Yeah, it may be because the "old" Eurosat was my first "big" coaster i've ever been on as a Kid back in time when this was the wildest and biggest ride in the park. And yes, i miss the old space theme it had - but i'm sure this is just nostalgia because i rode it so much as a kid. But you are, at least in my opinion, right - it still is a great coaster and has absolutely earned it's top 3 position!

[@ThemeParkTeeroy]

I knew there were some Can-Can truthers out there! 🤝

[@nox5555]

You missed one.. you missed foodloop. also i hope you spend the giant upcharge for the darkride restaurant just outside. Yes its extremly expensive, but its an insane concept and the food is very good. It also shows what possible and what could have been the centre piece of disneys failed start wars hotel.

[@ThemeParkTeeroy]

You’re totally right, foodloop would’ve been #7, but only because I didn’t manage to ride the one with the inversion And I didn’t get to try out the dark ride restaurant unfortunately, but I’ll definitely be trying it the next time I visit!

[@tescoessentialssoup]

i found this video through reio riisna's phantasialand video, i'm going to europa with my choir in about two weeks this video was so helpful, thank you!

[@ThemeParkTeeroy]

You’re very welcome, and Reio makes some amazing content! Very cool guy

[@calvinpetty343]

Earned a subscribe! Now I need to go ride Voltron 😭

[@aoilpe]

So , for everyone who didn’t catch it…- Europa Park is the showcase park from MACK RIDES . Silverstar is waaaay better without the trim breaks ! For Schweitzer Bobbahn the rattle is normal , since opening - the Chanel is made of tubes -to be able to operate under rain. Have you been tho Pleasure Beach in Blackpool ? The Big One is painful . Bandit in Movie World Bottrop Germany is the most painful woodie I’ve ridden so far… My first ride on Voltron was a kind of painful - I was not really prepared for this genius ride from hell 😂 It’s my home park and I grew up with it for the last 47 seasons ! Next year is the 50 anniversary… 🥂🎂🧨💥🌈

[@JaMi2310]

One time I had ride on Silver Star were the trims weren‘t activated. OMG that was great!

[@Lukas12220]

Trims are off during winter

[@catherineroberts5239]

I think Blue Fire was my favorite but if I went back for another day I think I would do CanCan and Matterhorn again.

[@Manu-gf3yl]

About voltron: when i rode it zhe first time, shortly after its opening day, the doors were closed at the dark ride section and the last screens nearby the doors were actually functional as well. So it was much darker. Idk why they changed that

[@IroAppe]

You should know that they're currently cycling out one train after the other to fit in stabilizers. Voltron in a few months might not be the same as Voltron now, in terms of roughness. One other variable of Voltron is the second launch. For a short time in the beginning it was 90km/h and now it's 100km/h, making it more extreme with additional 10km/h for the second half of the layout. Whatever they decide to do in the future, that seems like an important variable to modify the experience of the ride and the magnitude of the forces of the second half.

[@vincentvillasenor9678]

I agree with the VR coaster i was just lagging when i was there

[@valentinloscher8702]

Actually first list i can almost fully agree

[@rainerblitzknall4956]

Your thoughts about the combination of Mako and Silver Star are exactly the same as mine when I was first riding Mako last year (Europa Park is my home park). I rode Shambhala and thought it has to be my favorite B&M Hyper (and still is) but the first half of Mako and the second half of Silver Star are just so good… why can’t it simply be one ride??? 😂😂😂

[@Alex_Coaster_Adventurer]

I love this ranking, it mashes mine!

[@ThemeParkTeeroy]

Great minds think alike!

[@Syntim8]

Og Eurosat would be Number 1

[@Watterpolo]

It is hard to rank the difrent coasters bevause in the end you hafe 14 diffrent rides the 2 closest ones are bluefire and voltron al the others are different like day and night

[@briandennehy9296]

You need to ride Hyperia, best stall in the world

[@ThemeParkTeeroy]

Hopefully I’ll be able to get to the UK some time in the next few years to try it out!

[@roller12coaster]

Why would you be sad when they refurbish Euromir?

[@ThemeParkTeeroy]

It depends! If they change it up a lot, it might lose some of the charm that I enjoy about it! A lot of people complain about the Eurosat refurbishment because it came with a new theme (although I love its new theme), hopefully that doesn’t happen with Euro-Mir

[@SwissCoasterEnthusiast]

Hello time for me to terrorize this comment section again :) This is a very unique ranking compared to any other ones I saw, I definetly don't agree but I can respect your opinion. So my ranking from worst to best: Ba-a-a-a Express, Matterhorn Blitz, Schweizer Bobbahn, Atlantica Supersplash, Alpenexpress Enzian (2023), CanCan Coaster, Alpenexpress Enzian (1984-2023) Poseidon, Pegasus, Arthur, Euro Mir, Eurosat (1989), Silver Star, Blue Fire Megacoaster, Wodan Timburcoaster, Voltron Nevera. Anyways great ranking, Nice Video, can't wait to see your Voltron Review.

[@ThemeParkTeeroy]

That’s one of the best parts of this hobby, everyone’s got different opinions! I would have loved to ride the original Eurosat, especially considering how much I like Can-Can Coaster. Where would you put Poseidon?

[@borstenpinsel]

EuroMir fell down quite a bit in my ranking. It aged horribly. The best thing about it is the lift, the rest feels more like a medieval torture than a fun coaster nowadays (or since ever, judgement clouded by being a kid). Where's Poseidon? I love that thing

[@borstenpinsel]

​@@ThemeParkTeeroyas I understand it's the same layout so basically just put the original music in your ear and imagine a few lasers and space trash as decoration. There's also the VR experience but after being super nauseous trying it on the Enzian, I didn't dare to try it on the Can Can so I can't say anything about it

[@SwissCoasterEnthusiast]

@@ThemeParkTeeroy my bad I forgot Position, I updated my comment accordingly. For me Euro Mir is sort of a love-hate relationship, it's janky as fuck, sonetimes painful but sometimes also just really fun. The final Helix and turn before the Brake Run always make me laugh just because how jank that part is. Blue Fire Megacoaster for me is special, I might be the biggest fan of this ride there is. Blue Fire is the reason I am a coaster enthusiast nowadays, without that one ride back in 2010 I wouldn't be here. For me the ride is still fun as hell even after over 500 rides, it might not be as intense as other rides, but that's exactly what I love about it. It's so re-rideable and Marathoning it is just so much fun, especially in Winter when nobody is queueing and you can just stay in your seat. Sure it cannot keep up with all the crazy modern coasters from nowadays, but back in 2009 when it opened this ride was groundbreaking. I feel like a lot of people forget that together with the fact that it was the first big Thrill Coaster by Mack Rides. Without Blue Fire, there would be no Time Traveller or Voltron, it's just such a historically important ride for so many reasons. This and all of the previous things I just mentioned is the reason why I value this coaster so much. It will forever hold a special place in my Heart. Aight I hope y'all enjoyed my essay of yapping.

[@thefirstdrop2680]

Saying Voltron has stronger airtime than Steel Vengeance is absurd. Voltron is a great ride, but its airtime doesn’t match an average RMC, let alone SteVe. It has great airtime for a looper, but come on now…

[@ThemeParkTeeroy]

That’s your opinion! I ride Iron Gwazi every week, and in my opinion, Voltron’s airtime is still more powerful than any RMC, but only in those specific moments I pointed out.

[@Mooseman2929]

Idk ive been on Voltron and I have to agree with him. Its so much more than a looper. Its got crazy airtime.

[@thefirstdrop2680]

@@ThemeParkTeeroy idk that’s just insane to me. It wasn’t close to RMC airtime

[@SwissCoasterEnthusiast]

@@ThemeParkTeeroy I agree, Compared to my rides on Untamed at Walibi Holland last year, Voltron had so much stronger airtime and also much more sustained.

[@thefirstdrop2680]

@@SwissCoasterEnthusiast ya’ll are too caught up in the shiny new toy. I’ll give you sustained, cuz Untamed is mostly pops, but the strength of Voltron’s airtime isn’t close to Untamed 😂
