Wood Coaster POV GCI Wooden Roller Coaster Knight Valley China 木质过山车

[@coasterglitch]

If this were in the U.S it would get all the hype. It would probably be considered the best GCI or even one of the best Woodies out there. What I'm trying to say is that this is extremely underrated.

[@mammon310]

+CoasterGlitch I don't get it either, the Chinese are known for building good tracks, they built a bunch of them in the USA for a reason, also because they were practically slaves.

[@mammon310]

Ryan Stadler It was a joke, like we used them as slaves and blew them up to build railroad tracks in the 1800's, LOL!

[@garcsstuff6734]

Led Zed I agree, the Chinese have never made a good steel coaster but their woodies are insane!

[@itznathz9496]

America: we have the better coasters Asia: who are they again 😴

[@AeonAxisProductions]

@@derekdeans9523 need i remind you of togo?

[@TheRealConcertKing]

I love how so many chinese coasters have ridiculously long, descriptive names and this one is just called "Wood Coaster."

[@bobsquires4521]

I bet it is tongue-in-cheek. "Let's create arguably the worlds finest roller coaster, name it a very mundane name, 'wood coaster' and see how ridiculous all the criticism will be and how they missed the pun. It's like calling the first Superman movie, Guy. lol And, not to mention, it might lose something in the translation. I don't know Chinese (the language-with its intricate characters.)

[@TylerPCoyne]

There are actually some cases when a GCI is given two names for one coaster, this is one of them. So it’s not just called Wood Coaster, it’s also called Mountain Flyer, which is still a somewhat short name for a pretty long and intense wooden coaster

[@zejunruan3291]

TylerPCoyne Yeah...Chinese wooden are just have long weird names like”Python in Bamboo forest”

[@WhatAG23]

From my perspective it seems like they always have bad names like Wood Coaster or Diving Coaster

[@johncamacho6657]

Why hasn't this gotten more recognition??? WOW! What a beast! And what an amazing ride. It is so cool how uses the terrain. I love the observation bridge and the two fly bys past the station house. Fantastic woody!!!!!

[@fuzzyferretdude]

hey hey hey.. don't go throwin' the word "beast" around when wooden coasters are the topic, i get what you mean, but come on.

[@johncamacho6657]

Haha! Sorry! RIP I guess to that prior incarnation.

[@fuzzyferretdude]

that's not what i meant, i meant that when referring to coasters, theres only one Beast

[@mhtube01]

Probably because it's hidden in the mountains in China. Can you imagine how popular it would be if it was in the US?! I would love to ride this, GCI needs to build a clone or something similar in the US!

[@ryanpenrod1859]

It sounds like a choir of guys all rehearsed for their screams. it's so synchronized and in tune...

[@shTree]

Right? Gotta love the perfectly synchronized whoaaaaaaaaas and eyyyyyyyyyys

[@itznathz9496]

Wooooooooaooooooaoooooooohhhhhhhh

[@AFoxGuy]

I want to like.. But it’s at 69 likes

[@jamesh5621]

they're all the same guy

[@megagamer5256]

OddCarlane 🤣

[@xxthexcaliburxx]

This might just be one of the top if not the top GCI ever build. Great pacing looks so much fun

[@Branflakes1522]

I find it weird how steel and wood coasters have "swapped" Steel coasters have become out and back styled, while wooden coasters have become twisted and fast

[@themeparkreview]

I've added it to the description, but the ride is not called Mountain Flyer, it's called just "Wood Coaster" - there was also a sign that called it "Wood Coasters" but most of the signage in the park was simply "Wood Coaster."

[@bruceharmor8172]

We should all thank Robb and his crew for bringing us these videos. Most of us will never get to all of these parks, but Robb has given us an opportunity to "ride" coasters that we otherwise would only hear about.

[@tonyjenkins7378]

The video footage of this ride is absolutely incredible. I've never experienced a video for a coaster like this. The airial shots made this video give me a coaster enthusiast a thrill as I watched it. Wood Coaster Knight Valley is truly a beautiful wood structure coaster. Thanks for the experience.

[@stevros48]

try the voyage at holiday world in santa claus usa

[@RemixedVoice]

Honestly I think this is the most beautiful coaster in the world. GCI and the people who constructed it and maintain it should be very proud

[@kamsavart]

Now that's a woodie. Can't believe they let him stand on the lift hill to shoot video, lol.

[@thepuncakian2024]

the Chinese are pretty lax on safety things lol

[@brandonh4594]

this is the coolest wooden coaster i've ever seen 👍

[@paulbaxter2007]

Jesus....that ride is fast. Most wooden coasters have that sense of slowdown about midway through. This was balls to the wall, all the way through.

[@eyestoenvy]

Wow that was GREAT! How isn't this thing ranked up there in the top ten? The train itself should get a good review, it's a nice blend of nostalgic design with a modern lap bar. Kudos China!

[@peterg644]

There's probably a ton of millenium flyer reviews...

[@smith9808]

this looks amazing how isnt this ranked on the top ten

[@chdreturns]

Because its in China and most people have not heard of it in the western world.... If it were located in the US, Canada, or Europe it would be in the top 10.

[@MrNavajoRug]

Shoot, it would be top 3 woodies in the u.s. in the golden tickets i bet. This looks insane. But theres a lack of awareness in the stages for chinese coasters. It's hard to find videos about them or povs. Its just not readily available like the european and japanese coasters are. But given that china has more coasters than any other country I would love to be able to see them more easily. Too bad I'll probably never get a ride on them.

[@RemixedVoice]

The pacing and utilisation of the terrain is remarkable as hell. Maybe the best paced coaster I've ever seen that is also this long

[@rehanpoonawalla7406]

THIS GCI LOOKS REALLY GOOD AND WTH ITS SO UNDERATED WHY IS NO ONE ELSE TALKING ABOUT THIS

[@currenorr2206]

How did I just find out about this coaster.. this could easily be one of the best I’ve ever seen

[@hbfarker]

Wow... that woodie is phenomenal! Best wooden coaster I've ever seen.

[@Iaredantastic]

This is absolutely gorgeous

[@Arcusfp1]

Wow what a ride... Non stop tons of bunny hops built into the bigger curves and hills... Every three seconds another hill, curve, flyby, tunnel, or shooting through the structure... Always loved the Beast because of hugging the terrain, but I think this would become my favorite.. Some park needs to copy it board by board here in this country.

[@wiekvanvenetie3797]

GCI coasters are always so different and unique!

[@jg-7780]

Fun fact, in a Reddit AMA, one of the GCI employees who worked on this said it's his favorite ride he's made! I should note that AMA was held several years ago, so it's possible things could have changed.

[@SteelRiderCarl]

VERY very cool looking ride! The pace starts out very nicely, and once it's worked its way up to a nice fast speed, it doesn't stop!

[@WayTwo]

fast and very long!! awesome!

[@looklessugly7285]

@Plaines_LV lol

[@randomuseronyt9045]

😏

[@WooHoo-itsGaryGnu]

I don't care what anyone says... Terrain coasters are usually the best Beast Boulder Dash Wood Coaster Etc etc

[@veganjack3765]

Don't forget Nemesis... :)

[@veganjack3765]

It's not a woodie but it's very much a terrain coaster as it hugs close to the ground and rocks, waterfall, scenery ect, which for an inverted coaster gives great intensity and leg choppers :)

[@colino.544]

the yetti

[@mithramusic5909]

No no, Beast is very painful lol

[@alexdominguez5856]

+MithraMusic no

[@Kaede4Life]

this is the best chinese wood coaster i've seen so far!

[@KN-ko8ez]

Looks like an airtime masterpiece!

[@tylerlovett6242]

This legitimately looks like one of the best coasters on earth

[@mastertrole2013]

holy shit this is the coolest looking wooden coaster i've ever seen hands down. fuck, we need more terrain-based woodies in the US

[@rickzand654]

Sickest woodie ever

[@charlesharris513]

Agree!!!!

[@Tshiknn]

This really does look like one of the best rides ever created.

[@Dennissiple]

This looks to be the most incredible wooden coaster ever! How much did this puppy cost?

[@TrololzillaOG]

If RCDB is accurate, then approximately $15,211,208.81 (which includes about $562,000 in environmental costs).

[@nicom8784]

Dennis Siple usually gci's are really cheap so I would expect some where around 8,000,000

[@Dennissiple]

Thanks. Wow!. Amazing use of terrain on this ride. What were the environmental costs for? Curious about that.

[@TrololzillaOG]

Dennis Siple No clue. It could very well have to do with the fact that it is a terrain coaster, and basically tore through the forest as it did. Perhaps it's in a protected area, or the wood needed to come from a certain place.

[@Dennissiple]

That would make sense. Thanks again.

[@Joypyf]

Not only is this coaster a long ride, but it looks like it hauls!!

[@FazeSquidwrd715]

I don't see how this can't be the most fantastic and spectacular wooden coaster to ever exist.

[@woulfman9693]

I like the first part. You go down and when you think your down all the way to the gound you even go further dow.AWSOME!!!

[@TypicalToyReviews]

The layout on this is insane. Looks incredibly fun

[@svenska94]

That's such a beautiful and long wooden coaster and an amazing environment, respect!

[@themeparkreview]

Yeah, that was something we had custom made for this film shoot! ;)

[@gah-kaileung7075]

This is still my favourite GCI. A hidden gem.

[@kian965]

i love wooden coasters and how they're designed and built

[@rayinpau.s.a.6351]

This IS the hottest wooden coaster I have ever seen . What an amazing design !!!

[@themeparkreview]

No, we just go mount cameras and climb lift hills when no ones looking. (*NOTE* THIS IS CALLED SARCASM)

[@534DaHill]

This coaster just keeps going and going... and it has some serious speed to it, judging from the video. Looks like a great ride.

[@Evzilla84]

... All I can say is incredible!!... I am a HUGE roller coaster enthusiast and have spent probably more time than any human should without getting paid on the internet watching POV's and keeping up with all the industry news.... but I have never seen this one yet, and wow!!! The consistent speed and ridiculous airtime coming off those double downs along with the layout make me want to get on a plane and ride this thing right now! :)

[@timothyjanson5645]

I think this is one of the best GCI Woodies i've ever seen

[@RamblyAndy]

GCI should be so proud - seeing the vid is enought to know this ride is sheer mastery - pretty sure us westerners would all be regarding it as a defining coaster of our time if it were round our neck of the woods.

[@annmcneal7804]

A great ride- a long one!

[@CommanderCalico]

If this was in the U.S, this might dethrone mystic timbers as the best GCI.

[@Johnaubreyduncan]

Why can't all woodies be like this, aesome!!!!

[@Henry-ro2bo]

TheFishTank Doc. What does aesome mean?

[@bub_lemon]

misspelling of awesome

[@melholloway5357]

I wish they bring back woodies rides this looks like a nice smooth ride

[@MegaHarryBalzonya]

Man I wish this wasn't all the way in China, this looks like it would be one of the best wooden roller coasters out there. Of all the rides I want to go on this would definitely be in my top 10.

[@danmarkings3658]

That's one badass wooden roller-coaster, i really wished i lived near some cool amusement parks like this.

[@HHNupdate]

honestly one of the best coasters ive ever seen, wow

[@siNkii]

China has some amazing looking rides but I really like the scenery. Looks like such a pretty place.

[@DarvenGhost]

Is it weird that just watching this gave me airtime?

[@dodgyhingst]

that tells you it's a GREAT coaster.

[@damocoaster8451]

Great POV, I love watching POVs of Chinese coasters

[@alunday1991]

This looks insane. Good duration too!

[@mithramusic5909]

Wow. I can't think of a better way of describing it than right in the description, "FAST, long and awesome!"

[@davefroman4700]

OMG like this one coaster would be worth a trip! I love all the little air time hills right before the head choppers. Insane layout!

[@ingowahlen602]

this is simply magic, in my opinion the best rollercoaster on the planet

[@RedDogSieber]

The Giant Dipper in Santa Cruz use to be the worlds fastest wooden roller coaster... Been over 30 years since I have been there... I have no idea where it ranks now for speed...

[@dughmo]

I love the "woooooooooo" on all the vids honestly makes my day a billion times better!

[@Matt_Aquila]

That was by far one of the most thrilling coasters you've ever put up on your channel. A+!! Also, GRAVITY BEWBS!!!

[@Archman155]

This looks AMAZING get me on a flight to China NOW

[@gabe6495]

Wow this coaster is beautiful!!!

[@bergercookie]

This ride actually looks lit 🔥 af 👏🏼

[@LasVegas68]

Man that coaster looked Fast & Smooth too!!!

[@LasVegas68]

That is a very well designed Coaster!! Looks Fast & Smooth!!!

[@elletje_4026]

Wow this coaster is really cool. Nice track, speed and scenery. Many many trees

[@MrNavajoRug]

So this is the best woodie in the world right? No way in hell it isnt right? That looks so amazing. The way it uses the terrain is unreal. My goodness I wish I could afford a trip to china. Asia is so underrated when it comes to golden ticket awards and even awareness in the states. I'll admit, outside of japan I have no clue what coasters are in Asia and apparently theres more in asia than any continent by far. One problem, it's hard to find pov videos and rankings of their rides. But my goodness, this GCI looks like it should win all the accolades. Holy shit.

[@t00x11k]

That wooden look really intense and it's a very long ride ! China starting to have so many awesome coaster, I have to go there one day !

[@RedVynil]

This looks like a pretty damn nice ride!! All powered by just the first dive, too!!

[@pobpitts]

This coaster looks awesome.

[@blasphemer9]

It utilizes the land very nicely and I like how it goes through the station a couple of times.

[@cryogeneric]

This looks awesome!! It's really cool how it passes through the station.

[@dzat55]

I would never think a wood coaster would go the speed of a metal coaster. Thats f***ing sick as hell

[@LandoCorn]

I've been taking a Chinese class in school and I noticed the character for 'mountain' in there and I looked it up and the full title is "Wooden Roller Coaster". Pretty much the same.

[@johnshores4745]

i enjoyed watching the lady in purple on the front row enjoying herself

[@chadruss866]

rear facing cameras and boobs should be the new industry standard for measuring airtime!

[@BuglemouthBass]

2:58 begins a fascinating study of the effects of rapidly oscillating between positive and negative g-forces.

[@potatoesandicarrots]

How does this compare to other wood coasters GCI or otherwise @themeparkreviewTPR. This ride looks simply amazing

[@RonniMenziesStirling]

This thing looks absolutely freakin' RELENTLESS!!!

[@albomusicman85]

This is the best coaster I ever seen

[@alanm4072]

Dammm, look at that boob time! :P All serious, this coaster looks so dam fun and is worth travelling to China to ride this... So much airtime!

[@itznathz9496]

alanm4072 FIRST

[@itznathz9496]

Boob time?

[@jamesbarton894]

Thunderhead on steroids!

[@kx7zz]

Dollywood 😩😩

[@displayfireworks1]

I never figured this sort of ride in China. Great Video

[@LeCreepyPasteur]

This actually looks pretty awesome !

[@MotoAtheist]

What a badass coaster and an awesome video of people just loving the ride!!! No stupid screaming girls like every other POV seems to have.

[@hanneblum8394]

This coaster looks amazing!!!

[@MrRetroville]

Where ever that is filmed, I want to live. Everyone on the ride was so enthusiastic. In my neck of the woods, the little boys are too interested in being cool to impress their girlfriend hopefuls by acting tough rather than actually enjoying the ride. I'd love to go to a place where people actually get it.

[@therideanalyst6794]

MrRetroville what is your home park? La ronde? 😂

[@cynthiapickett7403]

Nice, huge hillside coaster 🎢!

[@jukingeo]

I was thinking the same thing, a cross between The Beast and Boulderdash. I must I am floored after watching this POV. This coaster is awesome. It is very long and fast. What more it uses the articulated trains. This must be GCI's best work to date. I am VERY impressed. When was this built?

[@GMoney-B]

Record for the largest gathering of Robb Alvey impersonators to date.

[@blackXSpr]

this looks like something i would design in rollercoaster tycoon!!!! seems extremely unsafe but also incredibly fun

[@nswain420]

HOLY SHIT!!!! This GCI looks AMAZING!!! Makes me wanna hop on a plane to China stat!

[@smjjohnson]

Damn, I could feel myself coming out of my seat just sitting here watching that!

[@Stellerex]

Now thats what I call a wooden coaster lol, Wow the speed on it is insane and barely any stoppers on the ride.

[@techno9991]

Robb, would you consider it in the top 5 or 10 for wooden coasters? It looks really awesome

[@odelia1225]

Went on it three times, screamed my lungs out every single time and I swear I had neck pain the next day. It's horrifying but fun!
