Any chance you will be coming to the UK for a coaster trip in the future?
@@abdul-azizsesay7 It’s definitely on my radar. Let’s just put it that way ;)
This man loves coasters more then I love space

@@darksamrai250what makes one better than another?
@@huntzzio The views, scientific significance and personal opinion
Love your videos! Keep em coming ❤️
The editing had me geeked😂😂 Coasters to ride in Europe list is only getting longer, thanks Marc
Super respectable list. I just moved to Germany from the US and am slowly ticking off parks - only Hansa and Phantasialand so far. I agree with your assessment of Taron, but as it’s got a bit more bite than F.L.Y. I’d personally put it above. (I prefer intense rides, so even though it’s not very intense, it’s still more intense than F.L.Y.) Love your praise for Kärnan!
Glad to hear you’ve been enjoying yourself in Germany! I absolutely love that country and all of its parks. Thanks for watching!
I also moved to Germany from the US and this will be my new guide for the next few years! I haven’t managed any parks yet but trying to make Energylandia happen this month 🤞
I think F.L.Y. is really not that good. The flying thing is cool for sure but it just lacks intensity to be considered a top coaster.
@@ballzz2thewall I think what makes it good is the extremely immersive theming. If the ride was just out on a plot of pavement I think it would fall from people's top coaster placements. Some of the elements are still really fun regardless of theming, but in general it's the experience as a whole that makes it good
@@astrojarred Where in Germany are you? I'm in Berlin. Hoping to make it to Energylandia ASAP lol
Awesome list, the ride to happiness just looks incredible!
It’s totally fantastic!
You did a really great job with this video! I’m a loyal subscriber.
Thanks for your ongoing support 🙏🏻
This is a great list. I have been lucky enough to ride some of these including Taron, Shambhala and Gotham City Escape. Might have to treat your list like a list of rides to tick off and get to ALL of these parks! :)
I like your montage man 👍
Great video as usual. Lots of love from Germany
Thank you! 🇺🇸 🤝 🇩🇪
Incredible! Everyone should make a video like you do 🙂
I have only 48 credits done and all of them are in Europe. My next targets are Zadra, Untamed and Kondaa. I don't know when I'll be able to add them to my ridden credits but they are in my bucket list. But I share top 1 with you. The Ride to Happiness is spectacular. As second I have Batman Gotham City Escape. I am a Spanish roller coaster enthusiast and it is a joy to have such a good roller coaster in the country.
Finally your top Europe list! I do understand your ratings (with the exception of RtH). Ride to Happiness is a great ride and was a lot of fun for the first few rides. But it is not re-ridable for me because after like 10 rides I had a strong headache from all the spinning and had to stop. Also the ride has a noticeable strong rattle. It still is in my top 20.
To each their own! Thanks for the support 🙌🏻
Awesome list!
Thanks Luke!
You are so lucky to ride those! We have many bucket list coasters over there!
I hope you get the chance to visit soon!
Great video! I really like your rankings of all the coasters! I liked the Gouderix joke. I was thinking that coaster in Finland that jackhammered you was your new worst coaster of the trip though. Gouderix is still comically bad though.
I’m sure i’ll make an updated top 10 worst roller coasters list soon 😆
@CoasterDash lol that'll be a fun watch!
Because you mentioned Fønix' beauty, I gotta admit it's probably my favorite color scheme for any coaster I've ridden. Dark forest green goes so hard with white
Dark forest green INSIDE of a dark forest 😮💨
i love the humor in your videos 😂
Great stuff. ExGF really moved up my rankings this last summer. Better than my first experience on it.
I absolutely love that coaster!
@@CoasterDash I guess I’m just a sucker for pure airtime as I think I like it more than Hyperion and Kondaa. 😳
@@StamfordBridgeEGF has a more “pure” sense of airtime imo with all the more conventional elements
now I’m learning to make my first videos, I hope that someday it be so good as yours!
Just got back from Energylandia a couple of days ago. Zadra is beyond superb I was lucky enough to have ZERO waiting time on my second day and rode it back to back in all seats.
My personal fav is F.L.Y., I just looooove the position of the ride and at night.... that ride is fenomenal in experiance, for me. :)
I hear so much praise towards Ride to Happiness, so I guess that's my next destination :)
Cool vid, by the way! Love it!
such job, so gorgeous
"but if you have been to Europe"
My brother in Christ, I live here, many people do
Youll have to come to the UK next year when some new coasters are set to open. The Nemesis retrack is looking stunning and is my #2 in the country. Hyperia is going to be the countries next tallest coaster and looks like an interesting layout. ICON is a great Mack launch coaster, Wickerman is a complete package and supurb. You have the prototype b&m flying and dive coasters also at Alton Towers. Oh and you cant forget Stealth as well, an amazing hydraulic launch. And how could I forget the Smiler, just a demented ride, in the best way possible.
It’s definitely on the list! Very curious to see how these rides stack up to the ones i’ve ridden.
@@CoasterDash The Smiler and Nemesis would probably be in your top 25 as of now. Unfortunately the UK once known for amazing coaster innovation (1994 of the year of the rollercoaster) there was definitely a drop off in quality and the amount being spent (the credit crisis and smiler accident played huge parts) but since 2018 it's picked up again with Wickerman and ICON opening that Spring.
Come to the UK next year! With Hyperia opening at Thorpe Park and Nemesis getting a retrack at Alton Towers it's gonna be a great year for UK theme parks!
Definitely been on my mind 🤔
phantasialand is my local park ❤️i have only been to phantasialand, movie park and gardaland so far. i’m going to a semester abroad to GB and will visit alton towers
Ohh really, missed your videos
RTH for President 🔥🙌🏼
I'm looking forward to when ever your in europe again. Then we can Plan together earlier than last time and do Plopsaland again and we can also do Walibi Belgium and Phantasialand🔥🙌🏼
Sounds great! Thanks Julian, see you again soon!
I want to learn this kind of channel design!
I feel like both Phantasialand coasters are a bit to high for my taste. Theire theming is awesome, but they have not the greatest elements... Otherwise I can mostly agree on your top 25. For me Hyperion is sooo underrated. My top 10 ( I have only 79 credits ):
1. Hyperion ( soo underrated , that speed felt out of this world in the front paired with insane airtime)
2.Kondaa ( airtime is outstanding )
3.Zadra ( just awesome but not as strong as Nr.1 and 2 )
4. Kärnan ( total experience is epic )
5. Helix ( my first ever elite coaster )
6. Untamed ( great but only got one morning ride )
7. Colossos ( I'm a sucker for airtime)
8. Lech Coaster ( 22 rides also at night and 22 greyouts)
9. Abyssus ( very underrated, had great airtame , inversions and was quite intense )
10. Novgorod ( launch is crazy and has some solid airtime)
Very unique list! Nice 🙌🏻
Good list pretty different position wise from mine but we like different things . Having said that i only have 3 coasters not on my list at least from the ones i have ridden. Didn't get boost Mode so thats one furius bachus and red force (well its still in my top 25 but if do count the 3 i haven't done yet thats just pushes it out of the top 25. I also have Katun on it one you haven't done yet.
nice i live in madrid, and i can enjoy top 3 (gotham city escape) anytime i want to
have you got a recent ten coasters overall?
My personal favourite ride in europe is nemesis at alton towers
Europe Moment
I have ridden der schwur des kärnan at Hansa park in Germany and that is my favorite rollercoaster i've ridden. I also have ridden Troy, Fenix, fluch von Novgorod, star Trek operation enterprise and goldrush. And karnan is my favorite that i've ridden.
Schwur des Kärnan is absolutely phenomenal!
@@CoasterDash exactly. I love that ride. It is absolutely insane.
Red Force's LSM launch left me underwhelmed after riding the likes of Formula Rossa and Furius Baco
You’re a coaster enthusiast? Name every coaster in coasterdashes intro.
gotta go to uk mate
2nd !!!
Awesome video as always!
I live in Italy and I've ridden all of the major coasters here, and this year I finally had the opportunity to visit my first ever abroad parks: Tripsdrill, Holiday Park and Europa Park.
And now I need to share with you a very controversial opinion, which I didn't even expect to have... My overall top 3 consists of:
3) Karacho
2) Expedition GeForce
1) Wodan
Yes, I personally prefer Wodan to EGF. As an enthusiast, at first even I was confused: how could I prefer a GCI to one of the best Intamin Mega in the world? The more I thought about it, the more it got me scracthing my head, but hear me out. EGF has a phenomenal first drop (in the backrow), and some amazing ejector airtime. But basically that's it. It has no variety, and it's kinda repetitive: hill, turn, hill, turn... Wodan on the other hand is a powerhouse from start to finish. It has laterals, airtime, positives, and most importantly: exceptional pacing. From the end of the lift to the final breaks it's a beast that throws you around like a ragdoll. I couldn't help but laughing hysterically during each ride, and after I got off the trains I was always out of breath.
So yeah, here's my hot take. My opinion of course😉
I can understand why. EGF may not be everyone’s favorite due to how traditional and raw it is compared to similar rides. Wodan is more versatile and creative for sure!
I love Katun very best coaster in Italy i think.
Hmm I feel like one would miss EGF more than Wodan if it went tommorow^^ but Wodan do be good, specially in the winter season
I've actually ridden Wodan several times before EGF... I spent a day at Tripsdrill and two days at Europa Park in May, and Wodan became my new N.1. Then in September I went first to Holiday Park, and then came back to Europa Park for one day. I was battled between EGF and Wodan, but my rides on Wodan on my last day at EP solidified it as my favourite between the two @@slifer19964444
I really like shambala
Helix is one of the best all rounder coasters in the world.
I Just love the fact that i only live 20 km away from the best coaster on earth, i am really happy vecause of that
@TimeWarperr-nq4sb wich ones are better?
@@cesarstevens7853none. That coaster is just the best thing on this planet
I'm with you on FLY being better than Taron. We need a vekoma flyer in the states!!
One can only hope 🙏🏻
Great list! We seem to have a similar taste (compared to some people putting Taron at 1 wtf?!). Where we differ most would be Kondaa's high and Hyperions low placement. Well... and RtH at 1😅 Don't get me wrong its great but yeah I will come to that^^You seem to have a higher tolerance or even preference for intensity/ higher positives than me. Not that I can't stand it at all but at the moment excessive positives aren't axactly something I would credit a coaster to shoot up in my rankings. For example something like Abyss's on an 18h empty stomach was... well abyssmal^^ I can look past that though and try to rank the coasters objectively nevertheless but I feel like airtime is widely more popular than positives between coaster enthusiasts anyway. Kondaa I dont really agree with you. I was rather disappointed after riding it because people hyped it up soooo much. But looking back I prefer both Expedition Geforce and Hyperion by quite a bit actually. Hyperion being the best of the bunch and currently my second favorite coaster still in all of Europe. People say Kondaa is an upgraded version of EGF but to me it felt more like a downgrade despite maybe the smoother ride. As you said, Geforce has unprecedented airtime and a better first drop imo. Plus it is a good 15 ft taller so yeah I dont really see the upgrade in Kondaa.. Hyperion tops both tho quite obviously as I think. The first drop is just pure ecstasy, specially in the back and warmed up. And so is the first camelback and inversion as well as the low banks and speedhills. Those elements do hit on Geforce level and definitely more than Kondaa. Only elements that really hit for me on Kondaa were the first drop (although its really getting low with only 48m hence why I prefer egf`s I think) and the first camelback and both those elements can't compare to Hyperion or EGF. I would be surprised if after a few resides in Kondaa you wouldn't come to a similar conclusion. Next would be your euphoria for Ride to happiness.. I can see why people have it as their number 1. But since Im not a spinning guy.. yeah. As a lot of people said it really isn't as nauseating as one would maybe think from the outside but yeah.. Same with positives, I can only give so much credit for spinning. It sure is a one of a kind experience and definitely has its place in the world and that's also why I objectively still rank it very high. But the spinning can't compensate the height and speed its missing, I know for a lot of people it can but not for me. Was still a top 5 experience as of yet but its nature also hinders the rerideability for me.. lol. Rest of the list was solid. I think Taron at 19 is also a little low. It wasn't my type of ride either and I even got off a little disappointed same as you since a some people were hyping it up like crazy. It got some good launches but at the and of the day its just a bunch of turns loool^^ Really only has 2-3 strong airtime moments and half of those are combined with almost painful laterals imo. I appreciate snappiness but being slammed full force at the side of the seat or your neighbor... idk. And yeah rest is just... curves. Yet still I would objectively rank it above a few other rides since the theming is world class and the first launch has some kick. It's still an intamin multi launch at the end of the day. But yeah I highly doubt Taron would stand a chance against any of the other Multi Launches in Europe or even the world. Given that I think Black Mamba deserves a spot in the list for its theming alone but yeah I haven't been on enough coasters to fully form an opinion on that but Black Mamba theming do be impressive. Wodan is great but unless you ride it in the winter may also be a little high. Where we agree on is Zadra. Imo undisputed number 1. A good 30% above scnd place even but yeah^^(Warmed up that is ofc) Shame I didn't get a proper evening ride given that I went in April and it wasn't too hot to begin with. I can also recommend magic seat row 9. Generally the second to last row is often times better than the last. Mostly you trade a real tiny bit of first drop for a better timing throughout the rest of the ride, depending on the layout of course but this has been confirmed for Zadra and many other rmc`s I imagine. Just think of rides with super long trains like Fly or mine trains, on these rides the "last row better" principle also doesn't apply because the trains are simply too long or at least longer than the entire hills. I have barely ridden half of Europes notable coasters and unfortunately Fly and Lech Coaster were closed on my respective visits but yeah this would be my top 20 for now:
1. Zadra
2. Hyperion
3. Untamed
4. Ride to Happiness
5. Epedition Geforce
6. Taron
7. Kondaa
8. Abyssus
9. Goliath
10. Lost Gravity
11. Wodan
12. Back Mamba
13. Red Fire
14. Anubis
15. Formula
16. Winjas Fear/ Force
17. Baron 1898
18.Colorado Adventure
19. Silver Star
20. Blue Fire
Interesting to hear! Thanks for sharing your list and opinions 🙌🏻
Rip Joris en de Draak, or Baron 1898 (ik Baron isnt the longest or best but the theming is just top notch)
Both are fantastic coasters, but didn’t quite make the cut
@@CoasterDash understandable
Which row is in your opinion the best on the ride to happiness?
Front and back, depends on the rotation
1sssssssSt!!!!!
You said Wildfire has the most inversions (3) on a wooden coaster, but Untamed has 5 right?
untamed has more invertions then wildfire tho
Are u sure zadra has airtime cause coaster studios always claims that it does not have that much airtime they say iron gwazi is better i’m not sure if you agree with them or not but I would love to hear your opinion on their perspective
I’ve watched his videos and have to say that he’s definitely in the minority. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions though. I found that Zadra had several moments of very strong airtime, many moments of which mixing laterals. Iron Gwazi does have the stronger airtime and more forceful positive g’s, but Zadra’s pacing is better and the layout is preferable for my tastes. I like it more!
@@CoasterDash Eventhough a lot of people emerged saying Zadra is better in direct comparison after the first hype of Gwazi died down a bit, Im still super curious about . Its still somewhat of my number 1 bucketlist coaster because it looks so similar and still quite a few people say its better than Zadra. I keep on watching onrides and try to compare it to the fading memory of my few good rides on Zadra^^ There are also people who see them as almost equal which would be great because then there are two of those beasts. Shame that I really only got one good ride on Zadra. Tbh after the first ride in morning at the front I wasnt even sure if it would crack my top 3^^ So the warmup argument also applies to Zadra. Im curious how often did you ride Iron Gwazi? Did you even get some warm rides in? And also I would recommend row 9 on both rides as a tiebreaker. This was the best row on Zadra and Untamed . On some instances I think Iron Gwazi at least looks more spectacular but I dont know if thats something to go by because Zadra doesnt lack any thrills and is graceful while doing that so I dont know. From the outside it looks at least like they should be somewhat close in quality^^
Here is my top 25 coasters in the world:
1. Zadra
2. Taiga
3. Wildfire
4. Untamed
5. Expedition GeForce
6. Ride to Happiness
7. Der Schwur des Karnan
8. Hyperion
9. Kondaa
10. Helix
11. Nemesis
12. Taron
13. Lech Coaster
14. Balder
15. Fonix
16. F.L.Y
17. Piraten
18. Junker
19. Troy
20. Goliath
21. Cu Chulainn
22. Tonnerre 2 Zeus
23. Colossos
24. Icon
25. The Smiler
Very nice list!
No italy😢
We need some much better coasters in the UK.
Where is Tootatis ? 😢
Seven weeks? Goodness, my wallet hurts just thinking about that.
Is letting the foot off the gas, a good thing? America I need your help.
While zaden isn’t my favourite coaster I’ve ridden ( my number 1 is F.L.Y.) my favourite ride I ever had on an rollercoaster was on zadra I rode it in the back row, in the dark at like 22.00 pm and during the entire ride fireworks where going off. It was insane . B.T.W. I live in Europe, and tarpon is a piece of trash even black mamba is better!😂
Taron is not that bad. For me Taron is still in my Top 5 (Count is 158 Coasters) overall because they tested a new Set of Wheels on Taron in April 2019 and Sebastian Jonas told me the Coaster is 2 Seconds faster than normal. Holy Shit the ERT on that evening was insane. 3 Full Trains and we just got send out like nothing. In 1 1/2 Hours I got 22 Rides and damn that was different
Did really no B&M invert crack the list?
Europe only has a few, and although I really enjoyed Black Mamba, OzIris & Monster, none of them could quick make the cut. Some stiff competition!

youve gotta be trippin about taron wtaf
If you look at the comments, it seems like i’m not alone. Weird how a coaster like that can be so divisive.
yeah@@CoasterDash
Where is tonnerre 2 Zeus?
Parc Asterix
Bro forgot about the UK
Furious baco is the worst roller-coaster I've ever ridden, you can see in the video you can buy that it is shaking violently and it ruined the whole day baco because of the neck and head pain it caused. Sunt fall is one of the scariest coasters I've been on.
What a rubbish comment
Brilliant and in depth can’t wait to go to hansa park
