Glad you liked it! I've been looking forward to this review for a while, as I feel like Gold Coaster gets constantly ignored whenever classic Arrows are being discussed. A beautiful ride and such a weird but cool layout.
the audio was only on when it was “Hot Wheels Sidewinder” so there’s no longer audio during the ride. I’m shocked the international enthusiasts visiting recently really enjoy this ride, I hate it and find it very rough and uncomfortable, especially the the second turn and the exit out of the loop
It’s my home park and I hate that coaster - it’s rough as guts! It’s only redeeming moment is the final loop but it’s not worth the pain just for that! I’d take the now removed Arkham Asylum at Movie World over this abomination any day.
One if the only Arrow loopers to not have corkscrews, the layout fits very well for its surroundings which is convenient considering it wasn't build at this park first and was relocated. Water slides wrap around the back half very well. It most be smooth with those trains and I prefered hot wheels sidewinder as a name for this.
Crazy Luna Park thought they could get away with this monster being placed right next to apartment buildings. After seeing the off-ride footage I have no idea how they crammed in.
I know Dreamworld has been catching flack for removing some really unique coasters, but I'm glad that they saved this very unique Arrow, and I hope it sticks around for a long time.
the name is a play-on word based on the park’s location. dreamworld is located in coomera which is apart of the gold coast (major australian city), the teal colour scheme is the gold coast’s main colour scheme (representing the water of the mass amount of beaches here). you have to do some digging before actually understanding the gold coasters name lmao
I've always loved the fools who buy apartments and houses near a freaking theme park then complain about noise. That's why you DON'T buy a property or house without visiting it at all hours of the day and ideally, different times of year.
I know, like IIRC Luna Park is around 90 years old (and likely predates the apartments that people are complaining from). I used to live across the street from a school, and I didn't go complaining to the city because the kids were being loud.
I forgot to comment this earlier, but it was great meeting you at SFNE on April 15th. Also this looks like a solid arrow looper, and the layout is kind of unique compared to the others.
How much better are the big arrow loopers In the United States like Viper, is it 10x better or just a bit better? I appreciate it because its the only one we have and usually marathon 5 or 10 rides in the back row when its quiet.
I haven't been out to Aussie but I've been on a good number of Arrow loopers big and small, and Viper is in another league in terms of forces and speed. I will say I am a bit biased, but Viper is a unique experience worth trekking out for cause there's nothing else like it anymore.
Not the fact that I rode this coaster over 30 times last year and didn't even know there was onboard audio coz it never worked once! I think they may have discontinued this feature tbh :( Also I rode cyclone when I was 8 and have never experienced a headache quite like that... thank god for vest restraints!
Nearly fella offa me chair.......No TRIMS! Plus the comically long queue line. Indiana Jones DL. has a 1/2 mile line. It was after that, a walk on ride in Nov. I love the track/ train color + surf theme. I'm gonna look for a vid. w/ soundtrack. AstroWorld had complains from apt. renters about the steam whistle from the railroad. (to be honest, it WAS a 6 Chime Nathan) Even though the park was there long b4 the apts. They never complained about free view of fireworks in the summer.
Only time Ive ever heard the on board audio working when during the hot wheels theme when it played 'freestyler' by bomfunk mc although I think it was a remix of that song.
Well i hope any every Australian thst likes roller coasters amusement parks will enjoy what they have left until it bites the dust! Otherwise im just continuing playing roller coaster tycoon building what I like want until the day I die!
the reason it has the name “gold coaster” is because the park is located in coomera which resides in the gold coast (enormous city and a tourist destination here in australia), the colour scheme is a direct reference to the gold coasts colour scheme. this is because of our beaches which surround the city. you have to do research about the gold is in general before actually understanding this coaster’s name lol
@@frizly28 Thanks for the info, but I was commenting about this as a joke. I already knew the park was in the Gold Coast and that the ride's name was based on the city it's in. I just simply found it funny how the track had a golden color for most of its life and they got rid of that color when the ride was renamed "Gold" Coaster lol
I can only think that you somehow rode a Gold Coaster in a parallel universe because that thing is rough as guts and should be unceremoniously torn down.

Btw like with some time ago, it‘s a dive loop/reverse sidewinder
Dang it! I forgot to update this video after that was pointed out. Thanks for pointing it out and I'll pin this comment so people know!

It's probably one of the harder ones to get on.

It is a lot smoother than the Arrows I'm used to in the US.

bro its so fun I love it. its a great arrow
@@coasterblocks3420 ppfffttt its way better then that crap SLC . I would take this over green lantern and middle row superman escape any day
It's a fun ride that's grown on me over the years!
It grew on me with each ride too.

I think the slides came after.

That's why I hope the new Big Dipper won't run into issues.
Excellent review, it's a 6 for me because I just like a coaster to do more, but it's indeed iconic and worthy of preservation. Cheers!
That's fair.
The colors are so Arrow-y
Yes
I know Dreamworld has been catching flack for removing some really unique coasters, but I'm glad that they saved this very unique Arrow, and I hope it sticks around for a long time.
I'm glad this one is still running.
Kind of ironic it's teal when called "Gold Coaster" but the colors look fantastic anyways
the name is a play-on word based on the park’s location. dreamworld is located in coomera which is apart of the gold coast (major australian city), the teal colour scheme is the gold coast’s main colour scheme (representing the water of the mass amount of beaches here). you have to do some digging before actually understanding the gold coasters name lmao
I get the color choice considering the beach theme.
@@frizly28 I did know it was nemed after gold coast, however did not know the 2nd part. Thanks for info!
@@zachcoastercrazy4032 no problem!
1:37 To be fair I think I'd stop being an enthusiast hearing the coaster's roar every day of the week.
Fair!
I actually think this looks nice, the trains have good color and the blue paint pops
Same
Same
Gives Carolina Cyclone vibes and I mean that as a compliment
@@thomasxl200 it does. Almost identical in terms of color
It does look nice.
I've always loved the fools who buy apartments and houses near a freaking theme park then complain about noise. That's why you DON'T buy a property or house without visiting it at all hours of the day and ideally, different times of year.
I get their pain if the park grew after they moved in, but in most cases they know it's there.

Do you mean the 14th? I wasn't there the 15th.
@@CanobieCoaster my bad, that’s what I meant.
Makes you wonder why American parks don’t put Vekoma trains on their Arrow loopers.
I wish more did.

SFMM's Viper isn't as smooth, but that ride has a larger quantity of punchy inversions.
Yay! My first looping coaster (of two, the other was California Screaming)
Nice!
Not sure about the Gold Coaster audio, however as Hot Wheels Sidewinder it played Bomfunk MC's Freestyler. Pretty iconic haha
Nice!

A few commented it stopped when the Hot Wheels theme left unfortunately.
The ride queue’s theming looks straight out of the Goo Lagoon in SpongeBob
Have to look up what that is.

I had no clue that queue was coming so it shocked me.

Interesting. Maybe it broke or was deactivated.
Was Gold Coaster at Dreamworld the most underrated Arrow or Vekoma looping coaster you've ridden in the world?
No, I think Goudurix is more underrated.
Hey don't be dissing The Bats preshow 15 minute nature walk.
At least it leads to a secluded setting for the ride.
Six Flags Darien Lake is still operating the Arrow manufactured Viper built in 1982....Arrows aren't extinct YET...
I meant last as in last to be designed.
on ride audio was only for hot wheels sidewinder not gold coaster.
Ah ok, thanks for clarifying.
Well i hope any every Australian thst likes roller coasters amusement parks will enjoy what they have left until it bites the dust!
Otherwise im just continuing playing roller coaster tycoon building what I like want until the day I die!
I hope it can last a while.
Why do the colors of gold coaster remind me of Carolina cyclone
Because they are identical.
Oh
Looks so much like Carolina Cyclone
It does.
I find it ironic how they got rid of the golden yellow colors after they renamed it Gold Coaster lol
the reason it has the name “gold coaster” is because the park is located in coomera which resides in the gold coast (enormous city and a tourist destination here in australia), the colour scheme is a direct reference to the gold coasts colour scheme. this is because of our beaches which surround the city. you have to do research about the gold is in general before actually understanding this coaster’s name lol
Kind of funny, but the beach theme works for the area.

@@mackenziefritz8169 fair enough lmao
pls review expedition everest
Already have.
I can only think that you somehow rode a Gold Coaster in a parallel universe because that thing is rough as guts and should be unceremoniously torn down.
I found it plenty tolerable.
Maybe you rode it before the Vekoma trains were added?
@@Didyus it’s one of my home parks and I ride it most visits.
Gold Coaster has got to go. The only redeeming part of it is the helix through White Water World. I want either a new Vekoma, or an RMC.
If you think gold coaster is bad, wait until you learn about anaconda at KD lol
@@andyroman8223 my Anaconda knows about that abomination too :)
I like the coaster. I don't want Dreamworld to remove another coasrer at this point.
Gold Coaster reopened in 2020
And I'm glad it did!
@@CanobieCoasterDefinitely
I prefer Gold Coaster than Hot Wheels SideWinder
The Cyclone theme looked coolest.
