Walibi Belgium is under completely different management. They only request a budget by Compagnie Des Alpes. Fun Fact: Walibi Belgium was the first ever Walibi park in the world. After the take over from Premier Parks, they made Walibi Flevo, (Which is now Walibi Holland), and when Premier Parks Aquired Six Flags they turned all their parks into Six Flags parks. Walibi Belgium can decide on their own what to build. But the Neighbours are fighting the operating permits for Walibi Belgium for years due to noise complaints and they actually managed to close the park in 2022 since the judge said their operating permit was not rightly aquired. The neighbours are trying to shut Walibi Belgium for years.
Very interesting history, thanks for sharing!
@@CoasterDash They used to have a monkey exhibit (with living Gibbon monkeys), a boat darkride and a Intamin looping ship. Still miss those.
@@DJWezzyK And an infamous Doppelmayr
@@0z3r0 Yeah but how can a track.be rusted just 3 months after opening and be conpletely unsafe🤔😅
Walibi holland already existed under the name "flevohof" in the 70s
It’s so cool to see the actual Calamity Mine after seeing it in RCT for over 20 years 😅
Awesome vlog bro, you guys are killing it!
Thanks for watching!!!
I legit like that you let a curse word slip here and there from time to time. It makes the video feel more honest and genuine, because other than ETR you're probably the first coaster TH-camr who vlogs coaster parks while speaking like an actual normal person talks. The sincerity makes your vlogs excellent.
While not intentional, I appreciate this 😂
Which channel is ETR?
@@DaanBruins ElToroRyan
@@Turkeyslam Thanks
I have a feeling your updated rankings are going to look like a tornado hit it with all the quality rides you've hit in Europe!
This sounds about right 😆
Kondaa is so good. I feel its underrated honestly. Some say it needs to warm up but on my early season morning rides I found it was flying. King of the Megacoasters in Europe, for sure. Ride to Happiness is better. Man, Belgium has been adding great stuff!
I'd say Walibi Belgium is the better park compared to Walibi Holland, although WH has the better ride line-up on the face of it. WB's collection is a bit more rounded overall, and the theming is less obnoxious. WB is also blessed with better looking surroundings, not being in the Flevopolder.
I do have to rectify: Loup-Garou is currently much rougher than Robin Hood ever was.
Loup garou is great for the airtime, but as soon as this thing goes sideways, it all goes wrong for me haha.
I hope this thing gets rmc'ed but I doubt they will do it as long as people are still queueing this much for this ride
@@bjeurn2273 The seats are roomy and padded and my rides were never painful but boy, that ride tracks exeptionally poorly. I would take a Gravity Group retrack just as well as a full RMC makeover but given what happened to Robin Hood... I can't think of a woodie in Europe more likely to be RMC'd.
@@gemmachaos yeah gravity group retrack would also be nice! Like what they did in Parc Asterix!
Untamed and konda the best.
I was marathoning Kondaa today and what i have to add here is that the operations were stellar. Big props to the ride ops for keeping the waiting time around 15 min on a very busy day
I love the Tikki Waka soundtrack. It always makes me fell like I am Crash Bandcoot
I've always thought the layout on Kondaa looked really amazing and underrated.
Finally, the first comment that isn't 5 paragraphs long
i like seeing your brothers growth into really becoming an enthusiast & ranking coasters & such
Great video! Lots of fun coasters! I'm looking forward to your next video! I'm also looking forward to your next top 50 list!
I went 3 days ago Kondaa is my new N1 it's just incredible so much whip amazing layout amazing forces so much better than Untamed it left me speechless.
Psyké Underground used to be called Sirocco and was completely outdoors. In 1997 a train got stuck on top of the loop for 1 hours 40 minutes because the flywheel didn't have enough speed. (the flywheel is still there today, you can see it in the queue.
In 1999 the whole ride moved indoors because of noise complaints from the neighbours.
Marc Great Vlog!! Belgium looks awesome, and this park is awesome and omg Kondaa looks so good out of the water🔥🔥.
The first two camelbacks on Kondaa are some of my favorite elements of any coaster I've done. So strong and so sustained
They’re absolutely incredible!
I really like this park and I'm glad to have this park as one of my home parks, espacially with Kondaa. And you should've ridden Loup Garou in the back row, it's not more bumpy than in the front, maybe even less bumpy and it has sooo much good airtime on all these drops and hills. I love it and it's actually my favourite woodie in Europe, but I'm a big Loup Garou fanboy😅🤷🏼♂️
I still want it to be RMC'ed cause a RMC hybrid on a level with Untamed in just a bit more than 1h drive from my house just sounds too good. I do like Untamed more than Kondaa tho, but still Kondaa is my 2nd favourite Intamin behind Velocicoaster so this thing is still elite as hell. Top 10 for me, but you've ridden more elite coasters than me so I see why it's "only" in your top 15. I mean with all the rides you've ridden, that still means its insaaane😂🤷🏼♂️
Idk if you remember my comments but I was hyping up wallibi Belgium. You sure didn’t disappoint with this vlog. Great coverage of the park and kondaa. The family geustrleur is also pretty good
I’m so glad you enjoyed this one!
@@CoasterDash thank you and I enjoy all of them. I’m looking forward to all of them in the future but especially phantasialand
Great video. Walibi Belgium is definitely more catered towards the entire family compared to Walibi Holland, and I think results in a more complete park. I think it will be a while before we see Loop Garou / Weerwolf get RMC'ed. The rickity old woodie has its charm, and still draws lines. They got something for everyone, especially now that they got a world class coaster. Need to get back, went pretty quickly in opening year and while it was a busy day, we still did basically everything! Especially Kondaa ops seem to be great nowadays. Can't wait for the next vlogs.
My second favorite coaster behind zadra, kondaa is a masterpiece
It really is a work of art.
15:18 I think back then he hasn't ridden Colorado Adventure.
Haha i rode it today
This is correct!
I wouldn’t even know what this ride was if not for your video! I’m loving the channel. I grew up next to Six Flags great America and I’ve always wanted them to get a b + m giga to compliment raging bull, their 1999 hyper. But now im fully convinced they need an intamin with an outerbank floater hill and a mack xtreme spinner.
The airtime in Pulsar was the best thing i've ever feld. Me and my friend were absolutely stunned after the ride.
This is SO weird; I saw my 1st POV of Loup Garou earlier today for the 1st time. You should have doe a back seat POV of it. Besides that this was a great video. (BTW there used to be sheep in the 80s 0r 90s within Coaster at Playland in Vancouver) Thanks for posting!
So glad I found your channel, greetings from France!
Thanks for the support 🇫🇷
There is a vacant lot around the park's bumper cars across from Pulsar where their old Triple Corkscrew was. With the noise issues raised by Kondaa, I doubt they will put something there any time soon unless its geared toward families or indoors (seriously a Nebulaz would fit perfectly in the turnaround. They also have a flat by Pulsar called "Spinning Vibe"
Im really glad i can skip all the queues in this park
Before Kondaa & RTH, Psyche Undergound was my most anticipated coaster in Belgium
Nice that you liked my homepark. Personaly I like Walibi Belgium more than Walibi NL because in the Netherlands they don't have fill up attractions. Have you done the darkrides in Walibi BE, because they are realy good? An RMC conversion from Loup Garou is what we are hoping for 😛 but I don't think they will do it in the next years, because for the GP this is a crowdpleaser...!
Psyke Undeground has not a rolling launch, but LIMs in the station by Gerstlauer and new Gerstlauer trains. Making the ride more reliable. The fins in the station are also used as brakes.
My gosh, Kondaa Looks Insane!!
That shuttleloop in the dark was in past a shuttleloop outside. I think they build a building around it, because of the weather what cost the ride less repearcost. In the outside this ride had huge problems and was more closed than now days. I only ride it when it was outside.
Psyke underground didn’t used to be completely indoors
It used to be like every other ride of its model
Outdoors
Then noise complaints came and I think either the spikes of vertical loop became enclosed but more noise complaints came so they put the whole ride indoors and stopped using the fly wheel launch.
Someday you’ll have to get out to Vancouver to ride their wooden coaster!!! You wont believe its even legal to be open lol
According to RCDB, there are 5 Mack power splashes, with 2 under construction
I really hope they wil do the same as zeus in parc astrix to loop garou bc the gravity group treatment looks amazing
CoasterDash: I can't swear in my videos
Also Coaster Dash: F**K ME!!!
I have ridden it just 9 days ago and it was crazy
The wooden coaster is soooo painful. But I love the park, wish I could come back to try Konda!
The easiest way to recognize a classic Vekoma: the trademark "fly through the windshield" Vekoma brakes :)
Bro..... I've been supporting your channel and following you for a while now. I love your content, I love the intro, your intro is absolutely my favorite and by far the best intro to a channel I've ever seen. I've told you in the past thatI lived in San Diego for years when I was younger and instill frequent San Diego often so I know there's a lot of very rich people in San Diego county. I assume you're from and live in North county somewhere like Carlsbad, or Poway, or Encinitas or something like that because for real bro... how rich are you guys? You're obviously just a kid and you travel all over Europe to ride coasters all summer??? God bless you and your family 🙏🏽 Keep doing what you're doing and being an inspiration for kids and adults out here who can gain inspiration and motivation from what your family is doing 💯🙏🏽
I appreciate this comment a lot, but we actually aren’t rich at all. matter of fact, we had to scrape by to make this trip work. however, we also have our priorities straight.
@@CoasterDash and that last sentence your wrote IS THE KEY! Sounds like you have great parents and a good stable foundation, like I said you can be an inspiration, so keep it up lil bro...
Fun and interesting fact: kondaa will soon in July my coaster wife.
The first time I rode Kondaa (a day after opening) I was pretty underwhelmed no matter which seat. It had pretty weak airtime even in the evening.. but last week when I rode it again it was so so much better. It had amazing airtime and weirdly the middle seat was without a doubt the best one for me! 🙏🏻
maybe after a few weeks of 30°C summer temperatures it gets better
Most people exiting Pulsar seem fine, but I got assigned to the back row on the side and I got soaked. So where you sit makes a big difference on that ride.
@18:27 "I can't swear in my video" Also, @17:53 😂😂
As an intro you should play the good morning USA remix
Did you go in the vampire rollercoaster in Walibi Belgium? I feel you missed another fun ride. Probably not as thrilling as Kondaa, but definitly worth going into if you enjoy roller coasters.
Rmc Loup Ga Rou Definitely.
I went today and the operations weren't great. Most rides were running 1 train except for Calamity Mine, Kondaa and Tiki Waka
the 2 darkrides are also good 🙂
I wish we had time to do them :(
Did you get any front row rides on Kondaa ? It is in my opinion , the best row of the ride , you just fly constantly
Isn't Zadra your fav hyper? :p
Such a shame you didn't ride loup garou in the back, cause there you get so much airtime actually crazy
I always felt like this thing was overshadowed by RTH. But according to the people who recently rode this it is another top-10 worthy coaster. Looks like Belgium really has one of the best Top 2 in the world!
This and RtH truly shape one of the strongest 1-2 punches of any country in the world
BTW your onride povs in these vlogs really make me want to ride these rides! Enjoying these alot.
Kondaa is abselutely amaizing! Great to see you liked it that much too!
I actully love Loop Garou. In fact its my second favourite ride in the Park! Strong airtime and great laterels. You just need to hold up your labbar to not get stapeled to an uncomfortable degree
Did you do the 2 darkrides? They are some of the best in Europe for me!
Unfortunately, we didn’t have time for the dark rides 🥲
@@CoasterDash thats a big bummer. Imo popcorn revenge is the third best rode at the park while challenge of tutankhamon is the 6th best
Did you ride the two darkrides , the SLC and Boomerang?
I rode the SLC and Boomerang, as I mentioned in the video. unfortunately though, we ran out of time and weren’t able to try their two dark rides.
Traines on Werewolf where build by KumbAK ( A splitt of comapny when Vekoma went bankrupt in the nineties)
Kinda sad that you didn’t do dalton terror.. It’s a “Giant drop” tower and it’s 77m high and goes 110 km/h
🤗
Its fu----, oh, I can't swear in my videos.
*The POV video*: I'm about to end this man's whole career
Lmao I noticed that too🤣
Konda vs hyperion?
What you think?
Hope you do a top list once the trip is over
trust me, i will. a top 100 is coming.
Kondaa doesn't get the praise it deserves, it is better than RTH for me
Talking about loupgarou, I think the park won't rmc it because it is insanely popular among the gp.
Agreed with you sir ;)
still hoping for that rmc conversion tho
@@coasterwaffle9623 I hope it too, mr. Waffle
Why didn't you go on the vampire. It is also very good.
Are you going to make your way to the uk at some point on your trip?
when exodus opens
Not this trip.
imagine the 1-2 punch this park could have with kondaa and than a high level RMC of loup garou
This is absolutely insane to think about!
As much as i like TRH or Untamed Kondaa is my #1 coaster. TRH and Untamed just make to nauseous and i can only ride them once.
are you planning on going to toverland?
Yes, that’ll be the next vlog to release!
Shuttle coaster was actually formerly called turbine
Did you go to Phantasialand?
Yes!
The Brussel waffle (dry) & the Liège waffle (sugery).
Yes, this is it!
Rmc weerwolf pls
Have you been to movie park germany
Yes, there will be a vlog for that park!
"I can't curse in my videos." -Marc. Marc two minutes earlier while riding Kondaa "Fck Meee"
13:55 I can tell you its extremely rough if not in front😬
Do you need permission to film on Ride with a gopro?
No, as long as it is secured with a chestmount or wristmount
@@CoasterDash alright thanks
18:23 "omg i cant swear in my video" meanwile him 10:02 ooooh sh*t and 17:52 f*** me dude
Untamed or Kondaa
6:55 luikse waffle ;P
Facts
@@mariusmertens114 Also the best one :P
@@upsidedown_ Luikse wafels are the best, no surprise there I guess
@@coasterwaffle9623 facts
I305 or kondaa
Intimidator 305 for certain but if you prefer airtime to intensity, Kondaa is a dream come true.
your screams end me
Kondaa is amazing but the werewolf is a peace of sh*t, so put in another RMC instead 🙂
Damn when is Belgium over.... I'm kinda getting tired of seeing you in that same country ngl. I thought you still got a couple more
They are the same whiners who move to an airport and then complain about noise pollution. You know where you will end up, so don't whine.
Tiki waka, most boring coaster in the park, most overrated coaster ever
