Ukko is the God of thunder in Finnish mythology (like Thor) and it also means an "old geezer" in modern language.
@Ama-Elaini2 ай бұрын
So, about the names: Taiga is of course the biome that Finland is found in, but when pronounced in Finnish it sounds like "taika", meaning magic. Ukko is an ancient god figure of the finns. Kirnu is a churn. Tulireki is a fire sleigh. Salama is a lightning. Hurjakuru is a wild gorge.

The wooden coaster actually has pretty intense air time if you sit at the front. You'll jump out against the lap bar (which doesn't touch you lap so it is an actual jump). It's at the hill top after the second double down.

Nice! You missed the one older coaster inside the round building at the center of the park. It's called Linnunrata ("the milky way") that has a VR set update. Earlier it had only a space theme made out of styrofoam. It's jerky, a bit camp, but it's my favourite after Taiga and wooden coaster there.

Taiga is another one of my top bucket list coasters. I have no doubts at all how much I would love it. It is definitely my type of coaster. It seems to be somewhat of a mixture of VelociCoaster and Maverick (2 of my favorite roller coasters) in many of its aspects. Maybe I'm wrong about that... but it does give me that impression. I'm quite sure that if I had the opportunity, I would be riding Taiga over and over again in a day at Linnanmaki.

Really enjoyed this vlog, was cool to see your reactions to Taiga🦅 I love this ride so much. It has been my number one for two years (it just got dethroned by freaking Eejanaika) and I cannot say enough good things about it. I feel like Taiga is a great showcase of what modern Intamin can do and what they’re capable of nowadays. Like Taiga packs in the best characteristics and elements of the blitz coaster model into one ride. Like you said, it’s so enjoyable, pure fun while not being to overly insane and a coaster you could ride all day long. After each and every ride, it grew more on me and I still stand by the fact that this is the best and especially well rounded coaster in Europe. I could go on and on with this ride, it’s so beautiful to look at, the soundtrack by Imascore is amazing, the trains are some of the coolest I’ve ever seen and the location of the ride and how it goes down this massive hill and is eventually even the first thing you see when coming to Linnanmäki (for us at least) is also spectacular. When going to Europe, Taiga should definitely not be missed🔥

When I was like 6yrs old I went to Linnanmäki with my mom and my uncle. I wanted to ride the wooden rollercoaster (vuoristorata) with my uncle. BIG mistake! My uncle was very big and fat and I was so little. I don't know how they let us ride together because the safety bar wasn't even close to me. There was no problems until the big jump where I flew up from my seat and headbutted another passenger in front of me. Glad I didn't fall from the side! Last time I rode anything with my uncle xD
