Busch Gardens Shuttle Express from Universal

[Slacking]

SheiKra does have 1 inversion, you do go upside down once. And it is a short ride, but it does what it promises to do and it does it great. It does pack a punch, and the second drop in the back row gives you awesome airtime!

Damo, I can't imagine how chilly you must be tonight after being down here for a week. I bet the shrots and sleeveless shrits are packed away for a couple more months.

Also Damo, have you ridden The Italian Job at Canada's Wonderland? It looks kinda fun. I went there a few years back while visiting my dad, and was disappointed they wouldn't let me into the Scooby Doo dark ride without a child, it I was able to ride 2 kiddie coasters (Ghoster Coaster and that suspended one), made no sense to me! Otherwise, it was a fun park.

I haven't seen any stats, but it has to be one of the biggest Immelmann's B&M has ever built.

Shiekra does have one inversion. I can handle that easily. I just don't like rides with 5 or 6 or 7. I like to ride coasters multiple times and that usually limits the re-ridability.

We have ridden Italian Job. The launch is hilarious because is really is very lame but the coaster is fun. There are lots of coasters in the park but they are mostly bad, crap, headbangers that you have to wait in line for at least an hour for (except for the suspended -- it is good). Wonderland is very, very popular. They have a ton of great flat rides that outdo the coasters. The Scooby doo line up is sooooooo long. They limit it for that reason. It has a very low capacity like Pteranadon Flyers. I think they may have lightened that restriction last year though.

Oh and my son says that the immelman is the largest built.

I am not surprised that the Immelman is the largest. I actually think its the most intense part of SheiKra.

I enjoyed Wonderland when I visited. As far as I remember, crowds weren't that bad the day I went, so that helped. And they are pretty much the red ehaded step-sister of the paramount parks, receiving more Off-the-shelf coasters and in general smaller rides than the other Paramount parks. I do remember liking their Suspended Coaster quite a bit, and I remember their Wild Mouse being pretty unique. I was also a big fan of the powered coaster that goes through the mountain. But, they do have an SLC (yuk!) and looks like they have added a Zamperla Volare since last time I'm there. I'm still bitter over not being able to ride Scooby Doo (I'm a HUGE dark ride fan, and I really wanted to ride it), and what gets me a bit upset is that it wasn't that long of a wait, and that area was generally empty.

Italian Job looks kinda fun though (in a cheesy sort of way). If I visit my dad again, I'll have to go. If not I'll have to try to hit up PKI or PKD.

And as I said again, Damo, even if you and/or your son aren't fans of traditional dark rides, this ride is a must-do at Knoebels:
