Went to Flamingo Land on the 27th, got first ride of the day on this for my first time going on it (never been on Collosus), thought it was absolutely amazing and ended my trip to Flamingo Land with it too. Absolutely love the feeling of being lifted out of the seat during the heartline rolls.
@timheye78632 жыл бұрын
Colossus, modern version so it seems. So it should be very good. Flamingoland was my first park in the UK (From Zeebrugge to Hull to Flamingoland) and I was very surprised with what they have. An extrended SLC, S&S El Loco, a better version of Boosterbike... Now it's even more with Hero and this. I love Hero, i like it's adventurous roughness. Now, the only thing they need after this to be a perfect park with what they offer, is a darkride.

Don't get me wrong, its a good coaster with a lot of good elements and the station has a lot of good theming. Only thing that lets it down for me via looking at it is the lack of theming around the rollercoaster. Think it could do with more theming as on another of your videos I commented it looks plain, without a theme. But good rollercoaster, but yeah theming would be good with it at least in my opinion. 😀👍
