Great review! I’ve always been very curious about this coaster. It looks like it could have a lot of potential but it just doesn’t execute the way CCI wanted due to the trims and kumbak trains

@zendryzgd8978 2 жыл бұрын

i have always said that portaventura hve to replace those trains with millennium flyers or timberliners

@AVdE10000 2 жыл бұрын

Unpopular opinion, but I actually don't mind the KumbaK trains; I'm one of the 5 people who prefers this over say, Joris en de Draak. I love it when wooden coasters aren't nimble and instead have big, bulky trains that bounce and shake when they have to take sharp turns. Loup-Garou is probably still my favorite wooden coaster for that reason (and also because it delivers surprisingly good air time and is just very nostalgic for me).

Stampida was WAY better with their original trains. Those Kumbak trains are much heavier, and the track has suffered a lot since... And on the last 4-5 years a heavy retrack process has taken place, wich made the ride way much smoother than in 2017...

something to mention, the ride designer (John Wardley) had only ever designed one other woodie before which is megafobia at Oakwood. As you mentioned, the layout isn't the greatest but it does have some unique moments, such as that head on section. John Had smashed it out of the park on rides such as Megafobia, Nemesis and Dragon Khan, its just a shame that this was alittle boring if I'm being honest

@kryn1030 2 жыл бұрын

Megafobia is even worse than Stampida. It's rough, forceless, no air time. Literally nothing to like except the first drop, and if you're in the back even that's extremely painful.

@aa-rr3lb 2 жыл бұрын

As much as I'd love to see an RMC beast in port aventura, I don't think they'll do it, at least for now because stampida is that one family coaster that is more thrilling than el diablo/tomahawk but not as "terrifying" as dragon khan/shambala/furius baco. I think if port aventura built another family coaster, like a Gravity group wooden coaster or maybe a Gerstlauer like firechaser express (or even one of the new zamperla launched family coaster) Then Stampida would have a chance to get rmcd

Hi Taylor, this is a random question but in a park review of portaventura from late 2018, you said you had fastpasses both days. You also said you stayed on sight so if I were to stay on site do you get free fastpasses or do you still have to pay??

@CoasterStudios 2 жыл бұрын

the fast passes were not included with our on site stay, but I believe there are some hotel options at the park that do include express.

@MattMcIrvin Жыл бұрын

The layout is a little simpler and smaller than some of CCI's other rides, but I liked this one a lot. I wonder if this was the direct inspiration for Lightning Racer, with its racing/dueling switches (built by CCI's successor GCI). The restraints are a little constraining. I got a back-row ride too, which gave it some wildness. What puzzles me a little is that I've heard this ride described by many people as rough, but it was quite smooth for me (given that it's a woodie). I thought the classic wooden feel of it was fine.

@JordiLA 2 жыл бұрын

I'm Agree! but if you don't travel a lot to all theme parks around the world and are living in Europe, Stampida can be perfectly a 7.5 depending on the maintenance (sometimes it's too much shaky). In the slowest part near the end a sad fatal accident occurs years ago, maybe they slowed for that reason. (News said the rider was a bit overweight and not firmly tied).. And about the restrains it is true some times in the downhill they down a bit and if you have some beer belly like me, it is painful and difficult to breath near the end. But I like Stampida! 🥰

It really disappointed me when I rode it in 2018. I made the mistake to ride the front, and it felt so sluggish that I totally gave up on riding it again. I would definitely retry this coaster in the back. Its layout is great for what it is, but I suppose that it would run better with other trains.

@@rechtebanana No comedy at all. It’s not because you want to RMC every traditional woodie that everybody shares that opinion. Tastes and flavors! Also, Walibi Belgium has, for now, never showed any interest in RMC. HOWEVER, if RMC Werewolf WOULD/EVER happens, it will be between now and 2025. Walibi Holland is working again with RMC, and we know big changes are coming to the area of Werewolf in Walibi Belgium. Also, Walibi Belgium stated that 2024 and 2025 would be 2 big and important years (2025 being the 50’th anniversary of the park), so it would be more then obvious that, it it happens, it happens soon. Do i say no to RMC at all? Offcourse not (but please do something about those horrible trains), but leave Werewolf as it is (still VERY popular and loved) and surprise everyone with a ground up Hybrid next to and intertwined with Kondaa …
