What is: Taron - Phantasialand

[@ThemeParkWorldTour]

It's an amazing coaster, a great example of how a coaster can be low to the ground but still incredibly thrilling.

[@coasterbot]

It truly looks it. I'll finally get to experience it this September! :)

[@BlimpKingMax]

Never before have I ridden a coaster that is just that downright "addictive". It is SO reridable, you just want to go again and again. I really feel that this is just all around as close as we have ever gotten to a perfect roller coaster. It is a perfect blend between speed, intensity and unpredictable elements; that combined with all the near misses due to the incredible theming makes for a HUGE adrenaline rush. The feeling of speed during the sencond launch is just unbelievable. After my first ride on this thing my hands were literally shaking for one minute after we hit the brakes. 10/10, wipes the floor with Helix and Blue Fire :D

[@coasterbot]

Taron is definitely an incredible roller coaster. Glad to hear you loved it so much! :)

[@adrikerkhofs8892]

8BITaufwaerts I hope to ride it once ! (Totally agree with helix & blue fire, together with taron they are my top 3)

[@A7x_Forever]

Same happened to me when I first rode it. I've never had a coaster than made me laugh like a maniac. I love intamin. They're at least twice as good as B&M. Freaking 20 second coaster brand ... Btw: This launch system is watercooled, that's why such a high power output is even possible.

[@themeparkchallengeofficial]

I actually prefer Expedition GeForce over Taron. Probably because I like airtime more than snappy turns

[@clubstep8244]

@@A7x_Forever Taron was Made by a enthusiast that was present on Forums, the phanstasialand called him and asked him to do a sick layout

At the end of the day when the track is warm its the most intense ride i have ever experienced

True!

[@Komplex_Music_]

yup it's just exhilarating

[@lassmirandadennsiewillja3943]

yes in know it inside out. Its serious. Much faster that the newer F.L.Y.

[@mikev.ij-peren6986]

we were actually lucky enough to ride this coaster after a warm day with just a little bit of rain at the end. this meant that the track was warm and slippery! an overall insane experience!

[@googleprofiel6814]

This is such a crazy rollercoaster that really wants to throw you out of your seat! I've never experienced something like this! and I seriously loved every second of it!

[@TaronTT]

TRUE!

[@dottineidhardt6652]

Is Taron the only coaster you've ridden?

[@bengel2000]

You gotta love Taron. Very forceful and such a great experience, no inversions needed.

[@coasterbot]

Definitely, I can't wait to finally ride it myself later this year! :)

[@Daantjer]

Def the best coaster I've done so far. And I've done quite a lot.

[@coasterbot]

Awesome! :)

[@lunawenko9324]

Taron is one of my favourit coasters of all time. The themeing, combined with the amazing layout and two launches are more than enough to create an absolutly awesome ride experience

[@RemixedVoice]

Taron just might be the most enjoyable coaster I've ever been on. And the theming just adds so much to the experience too.

[@coasterbot]

That's awesome to hear! :)

[@feathers8233]

What is Taron? Most likely the best coaster I've ever been on. It's a kickass ride and the second launch has more power than any other launch I've experienced (it's even better than Desert Race and that one has a hydraulic launch lol). It's fast-paced, it's intense and it made me lose my voice. Can't wait to ride again

[@coasterglitch]

Wow this channel has grown alot. I remember when you only had a couple hundred subscribers. Keep up the good work Harry.

[@coasterbot]

Not only has it grown in subscribers, but quality and diversity. I cannot thank people enough for watching and enjoying my content. I will continue to do my best in creating new videos! :)

[@coasterfreak936]

This ride is awsome, the best Coaster i've ever ridden so far. The Theming is outstanding and the coaster has many airtime moments and so cool rapid Transitions, the Launches are also realy cool, the second is better (more intens, faster and also some nice near-miss).

[@coasterbot]

Great to hear. Taron is an all-round incredible coaster!

[@GianniTheodoor]

Taron IS the best coaster in the Europe, if not the world.

[@JohnSmith-mk5xm]

hans wurst Yes we can I never rode Taron but I rode Fury. FURY IS NOT SPECIAL! FREAKING MILLENNIUM FORCE IS BETTER THAN FURY. The best coaster in the US that is similar to Taron is Maverick.

[@TaronTT]

TRUE!

[@ClonkyClonky]

hans wurst what is EPG?

[@revofreak1993]

Speedy Reviews Expedition GeForce

[@smilerpunk922]

What about the smiler? What about nemesis?

[@YannisGoedermans]

After having ridden it yesterday, I can say it's the best roller coaster of the entire park, previously held by Black Mamba. It's second launch is just amazing. Really, I strained my shoulders trying to keep my arms upright in there. The acceleration is just amazing and the sound it produces can be heard throughout Klugheim and nearby areas.

[@coasterbot]

That's awesome, I can't wait to ride it one day! :)

[@johnsade872]

Taron is absolutely wild! A must do for any roller coaster addict. It totally blew me away, It is now my favourite Ride in Europe. Also a must do in the dark! .....Winter Phantasialand. Just Awesome!

[@coasterbot]

That's great to hear! I am extremely jealous. Taron is an incredible roller coaster that I definitely hope to ride in the future! :)

[@kenepo4u496]

Would it be awesome if the company behind Phantasialand did a new theme park in Ireland that is themed to different time periods and to get from one period to another, you go through a time tunnel? The themed areas will be Stone Age, Ancient Egypt, Pirate Oceans, Wild West, Middle Ages, Ancient Greece, Renaissance, Ancient Rome, Oriental Era, and Far Future. Each area will have one roller coaster and 5 flat rides. Wild West, Stone Age, and Pirate Oceans will have a water ride as well, and Middle Ages will have a dark ride along with the other rides.

[@luc6284]

That would be cool. What coaster would it have? Cu Chulainn is great so I don't think a woodie then.

[@snakekiller110]

sounds like a great idea for planet coaster

[@XeiToEU]

One of the best roller coaster of all time in one of the best (my personal best) parks in Europe, success !

[@TonyKimtheamusementparkfan]

So inpressive that they were able to fit in two roller coasters in that tight space :) Also, that theming is just outstanding. I don't know if even Disney or Universal can compete with that level of theming.

[@coasterbot]

Klugheim is an extremely impressive area as a whole. The combination of theming and quality of roller coasters is amazing.

[@p-jveroeveren2273]

This rollercoaster is really good . I only did it one time , but it was unforgettable . The airtime in this coaster was the best i ever felt .

[@fredl.7696]

I may be biased, cause Phantasialand is my Home Park, but Taron is the best rollercoaster that I have ever ridden! Words can hardly emphasize how awesome the experience is. It offers an amazing, intense, unique and long layout, with crazy launches, powerful Airtime, insane banked turns, rapid transitions, great Gs. and great speed. Taron is super compact, it dives over and under itself and changes the direction all the time. It's full of awesome near misses, rockwork and tunnels, which make you feel even faster than you actually are. Plus: it's super smooth and has awesome, comfortable restraints that make you feel very free. But it's more than the pure coaster, it are the theming, the overall atmosphere, the soundtrack the, the appearance, level of detail and especially how it's worked into the themed area that make the ride so incredible. Taron is Klugheim and Klugheim is Taron, if you know what I mean. Six Flags has the great thrill rides, but lacks theming and overall atmosphere. Disney has great theming, but lacks good roller coasters. Phantasialand combines awesome rides with out of this world theming, and I love it!

[@coasterbot]

Taron does look incredible, I can't wait to ride it later this year! :)

[@xXYannuschXx]

Phantasialand once again proves how important good theming is, with Taron being the prime example and probably the best themed roller coaster in the world.

[@coasterbot]

It surely looks like it! :)

[@bigbaba1111]

I like how you can hear the sound of the second launch throughout Klugheim so Taron is always on your mind.

[@channel12985]

All this did was make me want to go their… the theming looks FANTASTIC…

[@coasterbot]

How do you think I felt editing it!

[@commandernick8406]

Qoaster Stream you mean phantastic? :P

[@coasterfactsgermany9344]

This coaster gives you the experience of having no control about anything, either your body or your senses. Amazing!

[@coasterbot]

It is fantastic, I couldn't agree more! :)

[@coasterbot]

It's the same for me! :)

Going to be visiting Phantasialand at the end of October and am really looking forward to riding Taron. Probably my most anticipated coaster of the year. Great video!

[@coasterbot]

Great to hear, I am very jealous! ;)

[@swizzledeck]

another great video CB am actually at Phantasialand as I write this in the incredible hotel Matamba. I've spent the day taking photos and uploading them as this entire park is breathtaking, and as for Taron? I have never spent more time out of my seat on any other ride so much so I actually began hooking my heels underneath my seat as it felt like I would fly out! So intense and yet so smooth this coaster lacks nothing in my opinion.

[@coasterbot]

Thank you very much! I hope you are enjoying your stay, it definitely sounds like it. Ride Taron a few more times for me! :)

I'd love to go to Phanatsialand some day!

Me too!

[@casperfowl9115]

Taron is the best coaster in Europe.

[@samwilliamson2217]

Helix? I think it's a toss up between those two amazing rides.

[@Georgie-M]

Helix, Taron, Geforce, Piraten, Nemesis, Wildfire, Shambhala.. Europe has so many awesome coasters and I can't wait to ride the 4 on the list I've yet to get to.

[@harrh4528]

Sam Williamson having riden both, I prefer Helix but Taron is just, totally, incredibly amazing

[@imatroll1653]

Cas Mornout best in the world

[@Vycter_Real]

Technically i wouldnt count Nemesis because well Brexit...

[@JopStoffels]

Went on this bad bo for the first time today. It is absolutely fenomenal ride. Highly reccomend it.

[@coasterbot]

It is a fantastic ride, I agree! :)

[@onagonagonag]

You know it's good when it's my favorite coaster

[@mrsfahrenheit]

oh children .. this had me shook! I live kinda near the Phantasialand and of course I’ve heard about the new 6 world records BUT I avoided to spoiler myself too much so I went in totally blind.. I was so foolish to expect a typical rollercoaster start and was kind of confused when it already stopped after slowly driving around the edge.. HOLY MOLY ... this catapult start... from 0- 100 or so in under 3 seconds ..

[@coasterbot]

Glad you enjoyed it! Taron really is surprising, it's a great coaster! :)

[@lucianene7741]

You have to wait like 2 hours in line for the ride but it's well worth it. INTENSE I would say, and the second launch comes as a nasty surprise for those not expecting it.

[@coasterbot]

It is a fantastic coaster :)

[@aaronfl394]

I'm going here in October I am so excited!

[@coasterbot]

Great to hear; enjoy! :)

[@sandraweilbrenner67]

to me it is beautiful

[@davidduhme7780]

This is actually only the second roller coaster I’ve ever been on. I’ve ridden “Desert Race” before, also a launch coaster on Germany. I was afraid of roller coasters for years. Knowing this was an irrational fear, I decided to face it yesterday and just did it. It was amazing. I guess I’m addicted now…

[@xxbrmsn9984]

Nice video with fantastic infomations about Taron. Please made a same report about "Oath of Kärnan" in Hansa Park(Germany)when the theming is finish in 2017. This coaster is one of my favorit with Taron. :)

[@coasterbot]

Thank you very much! Kärnan is on the list of roller coasters to cover in future videos already. They are both incredible rides. :)

[@xxbrmsn9984]

+COASTER BOT Ok cool :D. Im verry happy about that.

[@Zrj19]

Okay, this thing looks insane. It is now one of my bucket lists coaster and I live in the U.S

[@coasterbot]

It really does, I hope to ride it this year for the first time! :)

[@TheKeksmonster007]

[@coasterbot]

[@triplehelix3794]

Just back from a trip to Phantasialand. My initial thoughts after riding it were: it’s good but not as good as people were making it out to be. However, I then had an hours ERT in the dark and all I can say is Wow! Love the fast transitions and the powerful launches. At night, it’s the best coaster I’ve ever experienced. In the daylight, I still prefer Helix because I like inversions.

[@coasterbot]

I came off feeling the same, but didn't get to ride it at night. What I can say is Helix at night is an incredible experience also!

[@charlotte-63]

Taron was an amazing experience

[@coasterbot]

Totally!

[@mattpresley6464]

[@coasterbot]

Thank you very much! I really appreciate the kind words. Stealth is on the list already, but thanks for the suggestion! :)

[@Noise-Bomb]

Yes it lives up to the hype. The last time i wrote i was last year a few days before Christmas and it was wonderful. The ride is so action packed and fast whilst being one of the longest roller coasters i ever rode. The watercooled LSM launch which is not only the fastest but the fastest accelerating LSM in the world if im not mistaken is awesome and the sound it makes is intimidating yet wonderful. I love it but in my opinion a few inversions wouldn't hurt the experience.

[@coasterbot]

Taron looks incredible. I can't wait to experience it myself soon :)

[@DiscreetHobo]

COASTER BOT literally rode it today You are in for a treat my friend

[@gdburningfire3810]

Scariest ride i've ever been on. The launch gives you so much G-force it feels like somebody just stabbed a knife in you and wiggled it around :P

[@coasterbot]

That's awesome to hear! :)

[@kw6stheater539]

I thought Taron was themed to a dragon... anyway, I think that Taron is easily the best coaster in Europe and the best launch coaster in the world; probably THE best coaster in the world. Voyage is the only coaster that comes anywhere close.

[@ImagineerTim]

more rockwork would have been soo nice or a key element during the ride before the first launch

[@sandraweilbrenner67]

beautiful

[@coasterbot]

Definitely! :)

[@harrh4528]

What is Taron: my 2nd favourite rollercoaster! it is AMAZING!!

[@Floemp]

lol same

[@Georgie-M]

out of interest, what's your no 1 coaster? Taron is probably my current top ride just above geforce and nemesis.

[@harrh4528]

GThing helix

[@Georgie-M]

ah yeah I probably should've looked at your profile pic

[@Floemp]

Coasterfan3657 I rode Helix, it's my third fave coaster. I like Taron more cus of the theming and intensity, but Helix is the smoothest coaster I've ever ridden.

[@BVH-tje]

It is the best coaster I have ridden, by far!

[@coasterbot]

Glad you love it so much! :)

[@AckReikTheGreatest07]

best new ride of 2016!

Definitely one of the best new rides of 2016! :)

[@jemilambi]

Phantasialand has the highest density of rides per cubic meter I ever saw. They are also very good to renew their park.

[@Imaeos1337]

I have to drive 2 hours to get in this park. I absolutely love it. The theeming is awesome and the coasters too. If you ever visit this park, stop by in Klugsheims restaurant. Its delicious. :P

[@brycefourn2001]

COASTER BOT Same for LR, Mako, and Valravn!

[@coasterbot]

[@i3ackgerridelic40]

One thing phantasialand is world class at : Theming. There is a bridge over the End oft the second launch , which leads into a small cave. Standing there is overwhelming

[@coasterbot]

I couldn't agree more! :)

[@nickk.5109]

I havn't ridden taron yet, is it better as expedition geforce?

[@Kalfje33]

Yeah, GeForce is amazing, but this is More Action packed, has (multiple) launches, has near Miss elements and cruises through the most immersive themed Area in the world

[@kleinefantasiewelten497]

Me too. Geforce

[@harrh4528]

Nick Kleijnen Taron is better by miles...

[@d3r4zz]

They are kind of hard to compare. I personally found Taron more intense because of the tight and unforseen layout in combination with the forceful and fast launches & near misses. The theming is also outstanding - Taron is a beauty! However, the drop of EGF is insane, there are more longer-lasting forces and theres more Airtime as fas as I remember (it has been 8 years since I rode EGF). Both are REALLY great rides and I, for myself, can't really say which one is better. Maybe in April when I will ride both again.

[@nickk.5109]

i've finally rode them both and think expedtion geforce is a bit better in my opinion. taron night ride is sooooooo good!😍

[@taronfanclub8437]

Very good Video! So much information! Wow!

[@CoasterConnection]

What is Taron? = a bad ass coaster!!! Also by the way I like the new outro and how did you get the annotation types?

That's awesome to know! :)

[@Uniphication]

I didn’t realize it had such a bizarre backstory. When you brought up the dragon I thought you were gonna say the coaster’s trains are supposed to be dragons lol.

[@coasterbot]

Yeah Taron's backstory is quite odd.

[@BRAWGWill]

Such amazing theming...

[@coasterbot]

Definitely! :)

[@robinpresents_]

Harry, do you think that SW8 will have the same "element" as mystic timbers, whatever that may be... (in the indoor section)

[@coasterbot]

It's not likely that the two coasters will share the same element, but I think there may indeed be a special or secret aspect to SW8.

[@leeroyjenkins7178]

I love this coaster so much. Sometimes I watch the onride on youtube and I go there some days later, because It's such a beautiful ride. If somebody is planning a visit - let me know. It's my home park. I will guide you! :D

[@ryanmarczinkowski6333]

I'm not exactly sure if it would fit your What is: videos that you have done so far, but could you do a What is: for Mitch Hawker or Golden Ticket Awards? I know they exist and that people refer to their rankings for coasters each year, but I think it would be interesting to learn where they came from or how they work. Thanks!

[@coasterbot]

I will add "Mitch Hawker's Coaster Poll: Explained" and "Golden Ticket Awards: Explained" to the list. Thank you for the interesting suggestions. :)
