WE RODE VOLTRON!! On-Ride Reaction from Europa Park's New World Class Launch Coaster

[@Billnyethecoasterguy]

How many forces can you have Voltron:yes

[@TylerPCoyne]

From what I’ve heard, the pre launch section serves a different kind of purpose besides offering thrills. I don’t know if Mack confirmed it, and I could be wrong, but the pre launch section also acts as a scale. It weighs the trains as it bounces it up and down, then it takes the information and transforms it into the desired amount of power need to launch the train upwards without causing a rollback.

[@gamingmamba2584]

Holy crap that would be so sick if it's true

[@Duffster115]

if true that is very smart and clever of Mack Rides

[@davefroman4700]

That would make sense from an engineering perspective. There is a pause before it starts bouncing which could be used to weigh the car.

[@CoasterStudios]

if so that is VERY cool

[@Nobodyisperfect-us6pk]

@@davefroman4700 They are disconnecting the rails, this is the gap, but yes, they will not be able to weight the trains, as long the rails are connected. After this, the rails connect again an the train ist shot out of the station. It will be crazy and a masterpiece of theming of all time, if this was just done to weight the trains.

Love Voltron. Ive got it in my top 3 with Zadra and Toutatis currently

[@maxhagenauer24]

What an absolutely amazing Mack by this park, they went all out with the layout and trains.

[@PatrickRyan150]

WOW! This looks intense with some really cool elements.

[@flooo7045]

I got 9 rides during my two day stay, I always used Single Rider, because the wait was shorter there. I noticed that the Single Riders are almost always guaranteed to get the left seat, because they join a Group of three and they occupy the other seats. I was once lucky and got the right seat, because a girl was scared and went straight to the exit. In my opinion, some of the elements are way better on the right seat so it was a little annoying that I had 8 rides on the left. However I really love Voltron's Layout and the quantity of airtime is just insane. The Hill after the Stall is one of the most insane and powerful I personally know. It's by far the best coaster in germany and the best Mack Coaster for me, but I didn't ride Hyperia.

[@rentzboss]

Agree on everything you said. The top hat after the turntable is so much better on the right

[@Disturbed666METAL]

Yeah last row right side is the Creme de la Creme on that Ride. I rode it 13 Times and I will be there in December for some cold night rides. I still don’t think it’s the best ride in Germany. Schwur des Kärnen and Taron are pretty high up there imo. On Europe Scale with RTH, GCE, Toutatis, Zadra and Lech Coaster it’s even looking worse

[@Not_SWAYXE]

THIS RIDE LOOKS AWESOME i heard it’s like a mix of pantheon and ride to happiness.. looks just as awesome as ether of those. wish i was in germany

[@Onion742]

This ride looks insane! Kings Island could definitely use one of these

[@DoomPlague]

I started saying that as soon as I got off the ride weeks back. I was on team Extreme Spinner but now I think a Stryker would be better. Sadly we'll likely get neither.

As a Holiday World operator, I've already met a few people who has Voltron as their favorite coaster and I don't blame them. This coaster is on the epic tier of attraction design and theming. I remember the announcement feeling like this coaster is too good to be real, but here it is. I can only imagine just how outdated Blue Fire is now.

[@no1segate606]

Tbf without Blue Fire there would be no Voltron, RTH, Hyperia,...

Taron. Kärnan. I cannot decide thanks to Voltron. They may as well become the top three in Germany, but the amount of effort and craziness, along with the advanced technology thrown into Voltron is what really does it for me 💯

[@Airtime_Journeys]

I am so happy that my home park finally has a stand out ride. I hope they fix the shakyness of the ride tho.

[@victoriamaier5844]

I have ridden this on 22nd of July . Insane coaster 💥

[@janku3368]

I really want to love Voltron, and it is probably one of the best coasters in europe - if it wasn't so uncomfortably rattly on some trains. I was able to ride in every seat location, on many different trains. If you get a lucky train, and get seated in the middle seat, you'll have one of the best rides in europe. If you get seated on the wing seat, and or have a bad train, you will get your imaginary brain aneurism popped in the high-positive-G valleys. You don't really get to pick your row or your train, so basically it boils to blind luck. I was not able to decode the Voltron formula yet, but my best experiences were in first row, in the middle seats. Not sure what train numbers though. I just know train 6 row 3 was horrendous for the whole row, even the middle seats. Maybe somebody else knows the best train/row? I would for sure like to know :) I hope Mack is able to fix this for next season. I would really love to see a more consistent experience, otherwise it is such a hit or miss with Voltron unfortunately.

[@Coasterrestrepeat]

Yes! 100% agree. All 4 of my rides were so rough!

[@andyuk200523]

Rode it last week a few times, without a doubt the best presented coaster in Europe, the pre-station queue and preshow are utterly fantastic!! I just wish the turntable was enclosed so they could use a bit of smoke etc... for effect. I did however ride each of my 3 times on an edge seat and did find it had a nasty rattle all the way round, some trains were worse than others, but not good for a brand new ride.

While hyperia has the hights, voltron has the whole package. But honestly, both are amazing. You cant really compare them both. They are totally different. While voltron has a speed limit of "just" 100km/h, it feels so much faster and intense due to its tied and weepy layout

[@goodnico0973]

I did it 6 days ago. And I did it because my 2 older sister wanted to do it, and it was better to do it than waiting 30-40 minutes doing nothing. And im someone who like rollercoaster but my body hate negative G’s. So during the whole waiting line I was asking myself if I really wanted to do it. So I did it and the only thing I was really concerned was the big looping at the start. I closed my eyes most of the ride (btw it was the first « intense » roller coaster that I have done) because if I see that the ride is going steep my brain « amplifies » the negative G’s effect, in the way that It give me nausea during the airtime (worse when I see how steep it is). The first looping that I was concerned for was more fun that I expected, it was funny to see the ground by looking up. Overall: even If you are not really someone who like intense ride the Voltron is still pretty fun, but may cause nausea after it. The thing that scared me the most was the tesla coil that activated in the waiting line, it was extremely loud (but nice tesla coil music).

[@metropod]

Form Feet and Leg… Form Arms and… Oh… wait… wrong Voltron…

[@skylark2001]

[@OnTheRailwayOfficial]

I think the rides are two different products tbh, like both are great rides but I feel like maybe each one suits a different cliche.

[@BACK2PORT]

Hyperia is all speed and not letting up. This reminds me of a modern smiler. Two different rides. And btw, I think Sarah gave you a hint at the end. She praised the theming but you watch both videos back to back, Hyperia it's all about that consistency

[@Zrj19]
