The panels exist because of noise reduction related to the town Rust. This is normally the part where most of the guests scream and Europapark made an agreement with Rust to install these panels and close the Q-Line for Silverstar at 8pm if the park is open later than 8pm.

The Europa Park has linke almost every major park in Germany the problem that it started as a tiny fairy-tail park next to a town/village. Those parks do all have major noise problems and are nearly almost in a fight with the local residents. That’s the reason why silver star needs these walls. Same goes also for the walls surrounding Taron in Phantasia Land. If you look closely onto the maps of those to parks you’ll notice that all major outdoor activities are based at one sind of the park. Germany has very strict restrictions on noise and has that problem of parks that started small and grew to a never imagined size in a short time. Oh yeah, that’s also the reason why mystery castle is an indoor drop tower... Have a good one! Chris

In my opinion Silver Star really shines in the winter. Because thats when the trims are almost completely turned off. It gives fantastic airtime (even ejector) during that time and its my favourite ride in the Park by far. Although I think its glossy smooth. I havent noticed a rattle at all
@azertycraftgaming4 жыл бұрын

I've ridden SilverStar on the year it opened in summer, at that time the ride was butter smooth so I would guess your rattling feeling is probably due to ageing ?

When I rode it the trim breaks were so aggressive you had to sit in the very last row to get any airtime at all, they may have eased up a little on them.

The thing with B&M hyper coasters is that they are really expansive and large so only major parks have them. That makes it that regular visitors who only ever ride one of them. And in that case a hyper blows other ride experiences out of the park even if Silver Star isn't the prime example of what a hyper can be.

As a fan of EP; I fully agree with your assessment. Silver Star is a crowd pleaser, it looks scary because of it's size, but actually doesn't do that much, but for the GP, the size and the big drop are usually all that counts. Why wasn't Silver Star built by Mack Rides you ask? It was the 2000's. Mack Rides was building Wild Mice and Family coasters. Only. And the company was struggling financially, because bigger and more intense rides were demanded by parks and park goers. And they experienced that first hand when they realized that Europa-Park needed a big ride, and Mack Rides had absolutely no expertise or capabilities to manufacture that. That's why they needed to get it from B&M. But it also was a wake-up call for Mack Rides. They realized that the company would be doomed if they just kept going. In the following years, they started to reorganize the whole company, and Michael Mack was a driving force in it. The company was in bad shape, and while the older members of the company insisted on keeping everything in their hands, Michael convinced them to get help. It was a really tough move for everyone involved and all the employees, but as we know today, putting the company in the hands of Christian von Elverfeldt was a great decision. Together with Macks, he managed to stabilize the company's finances and to slim down and modernize many structures. This allowed the company to enter a new chapter: The development of Blue Fire. Before this point, they really only had family rides, and some of them even were pretty bumpy (Look at Poseidon). It was a huge project to develop a whole new track and train system that was so far ahead of anything Mack Rides ever built. But all involving parties did their best and the Macks and all engineers at Mack Rides put all their knowledge and engineering skills into it. And that's how Mack Rides became the great company we know today. While Silver Star is a great ride for Europa-Park, it was a warning for Mack Rides. A warning they took very seriously, and it is astonishing how far the company got in just less than a decade. If they were to built a Hyper Coaster today, I'm sure Mack Rides would build it. But back then, that wasn't even an option. And why was Wodan built by GCI? Because Mack Rides doesn't build Wooden Coasters, that's a pretty simple answer ;)

I mostly agree with your review but I have to give Silver Star some credit. It was the ride that made me an enthusiast. When I first rode Silver Star back in 2012, it completely blew me away. I had never experienced anything on this scale before. It was by far the tallest, the fastest, the longest ride I had been on up to that point. And it flipped a switch in my head. It lead me down the rabbit hole of being a coaster enthusiast 8 years ago. Riding it again in 2017 was a bit underwhelming, though. It was still fun but I had ridden several hundred more coasters by that time and was a bit more experienced. The rattle was particularly noticable. It's nowhere near my Top 30 today. But it does hold a special place in my heart, because without Silver Star, I don't know if I'd be here today.

Though I can definitely see the ride‘s shortcomings when comparing it to newer B&M Hypers like Shambhala and Fury, I will always have a soft spot in my heart for Silver Star. With the silver and black color scheme, amazing looking trains as well as the fact that you can walk underneath basically the entire thing, this also has to be one of the most beautiful roller coasters ever created.

Part of the reason that Silver Star is a B&M hyper is because Mack rides wasn't at a point where they could build something like DC Rivals as at 2002 their biggest coasters were the bobsleigh coasters. Apparently during a tour of the ride (heard from Coaster-Net Uncut) someone said that today they'd build Silver Star themselves. Unlike Wodan (as Mack hasn't built any wood coasters), this is something that they could easily do today.

Silver Star was probably the biggest dissapointment on behalf of larger rollercoasters, and definatly while beïng in Europa-Park. It’s not “B&M smooth” at all and although it does have the stats, it’s far from that thrilling while you actually ride it. Given it to also be one of the least themed rides at Europa-Park, it indeed underperforms. I DID read comments about it beïng slightly to quite a bit better in the Winter, and i can confirm it is. Weird enough, the rattle is quite less during winter opening and they do indeed slow it down way less then they do in summer season, which does make it feel more powerfull (definatly in terms of airtime), but overal i honestly don’t care that much either for Silver Star in a park like Europa-Park. It’s fun for a ride or 1 maybe 2 but that’s it.

Better than several I have done in SF/CF parks (Raging Bull, Intimidator) but equally less good than several (Goliath SFoG, Nitro, Shambhala). The operations on this thing are insane. 6 is harsh. I'd probably go with 7. RE: Noise barriers - these were retro-fitted around 10 years back. It's a shame, but that's the village.

My problem with Silver Star is that it runs inconsistently. In my most recent visit, I rode it twice. The first was in the morning and it was running flawlessly- abnormally smooth and trimless, wich provided crazy ejector airtime on the small hills. The second time was before closing and the airtime wasn't very good and it was one of the roughest B&M coasters ever. In general its a great ride but it is not very smooth and ride experience is unpredictable sometimes. Interestingly, I found it rougher in the front than in the back.

I think Silver Star is a decent hyper coaster but the only other hyper coaster I have ridden is The Big One (I know that is an Arrow hyper and not a B&M). I guess that's not saying much though!😂

Hey Taylor.... Big fan.. You should do a "Top 10 Best themed rollercoasters" (unless you already have and I missed it lol)

Silver Star is actually just as themed as any ride in the park. Silver Stars are the names for Mercedes F1 cars. The track is painted in the silver star color and the lobby you showed would make any F1 fan geek out. Just a FYI, I can understand if you don't watch F1 you wouldn't know.

I made the mistake of riding Shambhala before Silver Star. Silver Star just didn't do it for me. As you said, Wodan is by far the better ride to spend your queue time on.
