@@Saint3188 I was there today and went on it one more time for the year, will be back again next year to ride it again, sure it’s not the fastest or the best, but it’s a new coaster and it’s a lot better than the death coaster.
yeah there was somebody that posted a video of it on here when I was there, if you check out this video here th-cam.com/video/nYD-oMyIu8w/w-d-xo.htmlsi=M5jYVMGL0cv24jjZ you'll see me right near the end of the video.
So glad that Playland and Zamperla was able to salvage this coaster from Italy. Fun fact: The name of this coaster in Italy "Senzafiato" means Breathless, does it leave you breathless after riding it?
myself? not really, but I've been on faster rides so I'm not the best judge for that, it is definitely a fun ride though and I hope that Playland will work together with them and come out with one of their bigger, faster, and looping coasters in the coming years.
yeah it would be fun to go around twice but imo, with the single lap the riders per hour will increase since there's only 1 lap, and the dispatching is really good, I timed how long it took from the time the people got off until I got on the ride and the average time yesterday was about 1 minute, so the rider capacity once they get used to it will be even faster, and considering I had no difficulties getting onto it, there'll be a lot of people going onto it and will not be turned away.
@@ishan0330 I’m a little above it but they were able to make it lock for me, but my chest is bigger than my stomach so it was easier for me to get on it even though I’m a little above the weight limit.
yeah that’s fair, but it is hopeful that maybe some day down the line they could commission Zamperla to do another launch coaster that has multiple launches and inversions using the same trains.
@@egbert5871 with the expansion I believe it'll add another expansion to get more rides in there, so they'll easily be able to bring a multi launch looping coaster from Zamperla.
@@egbert5871 one can hope, if not, ThunderVolt is still a fun ride, sure it's not an extreme thrill ride, but it's a lot better than the death coaster.
they know me and my Channel and they invited me to join for the Media Event so I could bring my GoPro onto the ride and get some footage on the ride on here as they haven't got any Onride POV's as of this time.
don't know, why is Xcelerator, Superman: The Escape, Top Thrill Dragster before refurbishment, Kingda Ka, and many other roller coasters have short ride times? roller coasters don't need to be The Beast and have like a 4 minute long ride time, some of the best roller coasters in the world have shorter ride times, it doesn't make them bad roller coasters.
Heading to playland soon to ride this new one, nice video!
I'm going there on August 24th to ride this Amazing Roller Coaster

@Magromancer Okay thanks for the review I will try it when I get there
Cant wait to ride this soon
Good vid, I like the light tunnel at the beginning and kinda wish they did more with that. Nice cam! :-)
Cool vid. Did you see any ACE folk participating in this event?

Looks like a blast but they gotta send that thing around twice per ride to make it worth the time in line and the cost of park passes.

arent you over hte 300 pound limit? not to be mean just curious

Still disappointed that for a multi million dollar coaster that they didn't go for something with inversions...

@@Magromancer where would it go though? Playland is not that big

@@Magromancer that would be awesome, though i feel it would still be a family one and not that extreme

How are you part of the media with only 1,000 subscribers?

why the hell is it so short

@@Magromancer yeah but literally nothing stands out abt this ride and they spent 18 freakin million bucks on this
@@RTWC269 you can always come to Playland and try it out for yourself, it actually has a decent amount of airtime for a coaster like this.
@@Magromancer sure, but its not worth 18 million dollars, arieforce one was the same price
@@RTWC269 the price has been conflicting as it was said multiple times that it was 9 million, not 18, and other sources said 12 million or 16 million.
shortest ride I've ever seen
I guess you never saw Superman: The Escape at Six Flags Magic Mountain or Top Thrill Dragster before it was turned into TT2?
@@Magromancer or kingda ka or xcelerator
Ride sucks
That ride is shitty never again am I going on it there is no point of going to the PNE
