Kraken!

[PotNoodle]

My wife isn't over keen on rollercoasters, but has managed and enjoyed, 'Thunder Mountain' and also 'The Rock'N'Rollercoaster', without the loops in Euro Disney.

She has ridden Space Mountain and The Indian Jones Ride and isn't over keen on the idea of bigger loops.

Should she forget it now? or risk it? The question's down to you!!!

It is a bit more thrilling than those you listed. Of course it is floorless. I don't know if that would be more scary to her or not. My kids and I loved it. My ds was 12 and my dd was 8 at the time. Of course I love all rollercoasters though. The faster and more loops the better!! Maybe when she sees it, she will want to ride. Or she may see it and say no way! Either way have a good time!!

it's in the league of Dueling Dragons and the Hulk at IOA, and Kumba at Busch Gardens Tampa. a great steel coaster with 7 inversions.

My wife has just said she may go on after seeing the photo, but, the fact as she says: - "It's 200 foot up in the air".

Well it's not 200' it's only 149' tall

The most intimidating part is the initial drop. After that it's just like all the other coasters in the area. Dueling Dragons in becoming my favorite ride in the area though. I love the front row of that ride.

Maybe you closed your eyes, but the Rock'n Roller coaster in DLRP does have loops.

I find Kraken high, but not as scary as Rock'n Roller Coaster or Space Mountain considering it's in open air and you can easily see where you're going. Also, it doesn't hurt like Space Mountain or Indiana Jones sometimes do (in DLRP).

European beat me to it, but yes RnR in Paris has THREE inversions, so I'm not sure how she missed them!

The worst bit (for me) about Kraken is the initial drop as it's surprisingly fast and really takes your breath from you. The rest of the ride is very smooth and a lot of fun.

Do what DW does - all the way up the lift, keep tuggin' on the restraint till it clicks one more time.....

I do that too!

You should leave it one click looser, its alot more fun that way!

Agreed. And don't hold on during the ride. Get some nice airtime.
