[2024] Voltron Nevera | Mack Stryker Coaster

[DiogoJ42]

Mack have always had a reputation for keeping to tried and tested ride systems. They rarely made anything fancy, but you could trust what you were buying. Seems like the last few years, they have looked at what Intamin are up to and said "halt mien bier". Of course, I can't pass a fair judgement until I have been on one of these new Macks..... and therein lies the rub: They aren't making me rush to ride them.

Can’t say I get the idea it’s rough, it’s very intense in an old school way but not rough. At least never when I have ridden it.

I think they've sorted it now.

Had several rides in June and then again in October last year. Had a couple of shockers, and a few more borderline uncomfortable rides.

In May this year had double figure rides and all of them were perfect. There's still a slight rattle but it doesn't take anything away from the ride.

The more I hear about Voltron the less I care about rushing off to ride it.

Voltron is worth visiting the park for alone, I have not been on anything like it.

Whether it turns out to be the greatest coaster you have ever been on, and the worst, only you can say.

I am just trying to work out, how to get back to Europa Park. There is a golf tournmament Annabelle has qualified in October in Munich, but I am running low on holiday days.

Voltron sounds like it’s the most polarising coaster out there!

Interesting that another contender is Hyperia and they’re the same manufacturer.

That and the apparent decline of B&M, I wonder has something actually changed or is it people’s expectations have been raised?

I wonder if the arrival of RMC on the scene of the last decade or so has changed people's perceptions. You can go on an extremely crazy coaster like Steel Vengeance or Wildcat's Revenge and it is as smooth as glass.

If Voltron was as bad as some people appear to make out, you can be sure it would not be getting the queues that it does! Consistently one of the longest queue times on park whilst also having one of the highest throughputs of any ride on park.
