I've noticed something about these stations, actually. They seem to generally only have one boarding gate, which means that any row assignments have to be done during boarding. They're basically boarding one row at a time, of course dispatches are going to be slow.
Damn they were running fast when you went, on the day I visited acrobat was at around 10 minutes per dispatch and pretty much everything else was around 5 minutes with only 1 train ops.
I had to film it from the exit because Acrobat had a full queue, and I was not about to wait in that line. I rode it the day before when it was a walk on and couldn’t film the dispatch then, since we got on immediately. Definitely not the best angle, but nothing I could do
By far, the worst operations on the tour. I really want to like Spaland as much as some of the others we visited, but with those operations, it's very difficult.
This is a song I just made up (sing to the tune of I Don't Care by Ed Sheehran) It's about a guy who is nervous about riding a SLC. I'm at a coaster I don't wanna be at. I don't ever know what's worth the credit. Wonderin' if i can sneak out the line Nobody's even looking at my 325 merch Then the restraints are down, too late now oh no, you know I should have thought twice, it'd make it better like that.

@@matthewl5434 If they wanted to be respectful then they would have a faster dispatch time. This has nothing to do with respect but more or less to do with horrendous employee training.
I remember riding Acrobat in May and was appalled at how long it took. The queue wasn't even long yet took FOREVER. Edit: actually, you're just reminding me how terrible many of the dispatches were. I remember thinking that I rode very little given how quiet it was on the day, but now you've reminded me why!k
I am so excited to meet you at Six Flags Great America on sunday. I have been watching you for 6 years, I am so excited for your 700 coaster. And what a coaster that is. MaxxForce is amazing.
Nope. Acrobat had a full queue. You just can’t see it because of where I filmed it. They were actually waiting on guests to put their things in a locker, which occurs on the ride platform itself.
The people who said that Fuji Q Highland has the worst operations in Japan, they must have done a park tour of all of the amusement parks in Japan, but Nagashima Spaland was closed for two weeks to clean and repair and they didn’t have time to get back to it before it opened back up, so they just skipped it and that is why it isn’t considered to have the worst dispatches in Japan. This was a joke btw, lol!
Janek Ge pretty much. Unfortunately it’s just the luck of the draw. Also timing it when it was a walk on the day before wouldn’t have been as fair, since they weren’t filling the train.
In May of this year, I was at Nagashima Spa Land. I immediately noticed that I had to wait a long time before the ride started moving, but I actually prefer it that way! I grew up in Switzerland, where there is only one amusement park. My family and I have also been to Europa-Park (Germany) and Disneyland Paris several times. In short, the operations there were much faster than in Japan. But it makes sense because the Japanese are much more meticulous about safety! For example, on "Hakugei," there was not only a lap bar but also a lap belt. (In general, you are often doubly secured on Japanese roller coasters.) It was even stated that you had to hold the lap bar crossed and were not allowed to stretch your hands during the ride, which was "ignored" in European parks. Don't get me wrong. Of course, safety is valued everywhere, especially in Europe, but in Japan, I find it even more precise. In "Tower of Terror" in Paris, are you only secured with a lap belt. However, in Tokyo DisneySea's "Tower of Terror," are you secured with both a lap belt and shoulder belt. I can give more examples, but in short, I find it better if it takes a little longer because more time is taken for the safety of the park guests.
Looks like my home park's dispatch time feels like Cedar Point's dispatches. In my home park, 1:40~2:00 per B&M dive (2trains) and 2:00~2:30 for B&M invert (1train) but here 5 min is the average
Best operations ever was the Six Flags mine train in the late sixties. I am sure they were running 3 trains and as your train rolled in and you were loading, the next train showed up on the final brake run. The final block was short and they could hold the trains on the lift hills if things went wrong.
Haha you just have to go in knowing it’s going to be slower in Japan but not as bad as six flags America! Hakugei has this huge station and they assign one train at a time lol, just let the chose their row! Is that sign she’s holding to not pull the lab bar down? Did you time acrobat a few times at least?
2:37 - Considering the fact that it is a short but sweet Ultra Twister coaster and that they load/unload at least a couple vehicles in the station while moving slowly, and 2 vehicles can cycle on the circuit at once, that's exceptional! 5:00 - Totally awful indeed. The fact is that they do not have seatbelts interlocked on the harnesses for some non-understandable reason, not to mention they do not pull down their restraints and fasten belts once seated when the load/unload/dispatch time should actually be no more than a minute for a coaster with this type of ordinary "short but sweet" layout. 7:13 - Should be faster, not as great as Ultra Twister, as another vehicle can dispatch once one either crests the lift hill or exits the zig-zag curves.
When I see Ultra-Twister here I think about how they murdered transporting a similar model and thus is why there isn't one literally at Six Flags America Maryland right now.
I never really paid attention to dispatch times in any park because I was usually busy being excited for the upcoming ride. But ever since your Europapark video I feel like no matter where I go, it's soooooo much slower.
Wow... Who'd have thought Nagashima Spa Land would have worse operations than Fuji Q? I guarantee that the lines there would move *a lot* faster if the Ride Ops would let people wait at the actual station gates before getting on! It looks like they hold all the passengers back at the entrance to the station itself, which completely defeats the purpose of the station gates! And that's without mentioning the fact that half of their coasters seem to be running only one train! This is La Ronde levels of incompetence!
Just went there yesterday and i can tell you, it hasnt gotten any better. For alot of parks in japan they hold a sign and make everyone see it before ridong. Sometimes making you do a chant or streches before boarding. Still loved the rides tho!
Ultra Twister L/UL was probably half that when it opened in Houston in 20 years ago. Load and unload was done in motion at the same terminal. Conveyer belt walkway on either side of the train. As you can expect there was an obvious sense of urgency. Rode it over multiple years and never had a panic loading/unloading train stop. Worked actually pretty well. IMO. After AstroWorld shuttered I knew it was relocated to Japan, but was unaware of this change.
Tip:If you had to choose between this and LaRonde,please,choose LaRonde. Edit : Its just my opinion. I’m just sending a message that LaRonde isn’t THAT bad. Just saying,I would pick LaRonde. I don’t wanna travel too far,and have 2 minute dispatches.
Its okay for Me! 😁 I’m just sending a message that LaRonde isn’t THAT bad. Just saying,I would pick LaRonde. I don’t wanna travel too far,and have 2 minute dispatches.
There is no reason to have Wild Mouse not cycle both tracks at the same time. The park chooses not to do that. To make matters worse, the trains do not actually board all rows at the same time to allow the lines to go faster. This type of wait is uncalled for, and there's not reason to not run two trains. One train during low attendance days when there's hardly anyone at the park, that I actually understand. Nagashima is in dire need of a big improvement with their dispatches and operations, and station gates for all rows need to be added, so guests can actually choose their own seats. Plus, turnstiles before entering the stations are also needed.
Was there 2 weeks ago and I ended up splurging and getting nearly $200 in fast passes to avoid the lines caused by the bad ops. Acrobat was indeed had the worst operations, followed by Steel Dragon 2000. Thanks for the video.
Is that typical of the B&M flyers? Superman at Great America had some 6 minute dispatches when I was there, but the operations there in general were the worst I've seen so not sure if it's the park or the ride.
You and I must have a completely different idea of what a ‘good’ video is, because those videos are nothing but cringe. It’s a miracle I haven’t deleted them all off of TH-cam. I am glad you enjoyed them, but I have moved on and am doing what I consider to be miles ahead of those videos.
Coaster Studios yeah ik but the cringe is what made them so cool but it would’ve been cool for some worlds of fun park battles or coaster fights but are you excited for iron gwazi
I've noticed something about these stations, actually. They seem to generally only have one boarding gate, which means that any row assignments have to be done during boarding. They're basically boarding one row at a time, of course dispatches are going to be slow.
They load the train front to back and so depending on where you are in line, you already know where you’ll be sitting.
*Europa Park:* _laughs in good operations_
@Spirit halloween fan but europa park has fastest operations in the world
Them and CP
Energylandia as well is laughing
Acrobat wasted 2 minutes before people even got on the train. Yikes…
Steel dragon 2000 wasted 3 minutes before people got on it
Acrobat is horribly slow, I always think it's closed until I actually walk into the station.
And we don't even know how long the unloading took.
Three and a half minutes...
Seems like the park would take a little more pride in not just their dispatches but capacity. Middle of summer...not exactly a dead day in April
Airtime Thrills it will take a lot of complaints from guests till they do something about it I'm sure
I eat faster than acrobat's dispatch time yes

In Hakugei’s case, that’s about average for other RMCs. Maybe with the exception of Steel Vengeance lol.
Steel Vengeance is fine

Japanese coasters have funny dispatch sounds - the one at 4:49 sounds like an old cellphone ringing :D
Omg. Makes some of the six flags dispatches look very quick.

Damn acrobat looks short but its was 30minute
If nothing else, we got to hear more of the jaunty music than we do in most operations videos, so that's something.
Seems like they can learn a lot from Europapark
When I see Ultra-Twister here I think about how they murdered transporting a similar model and thus is why there isn't one literally at Six Flags America Maryland right now.

Well, considering the previous train is probably still on the glacially-slow Japanese lift hill, there's no rush.

Why weren't people in the station before dispatches
FYI everytime I've been to the park (4 times) Arashi only ran one side and Acrobat only ever runs one train.
Why are they scanning people AT THE TRAIN on Acrobat??? That’s something you do at the start of the line!
Asriel Dreemurr I believe he’s checking pockets for loose articles as a type of metal detector.
