Wishmaster Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 Yesterday I went to the Cranger kirmis. The main reason I went was because the Olympia Looping was there, but since I was there anyway I rode a few other rides as wel. ADMIN NOTE: After checking out Wishmaster's awesome photos, download the POV Video of Olympia Looping in the members only section: http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=21986 An other great ride. I just skipt it because of the long qeue. and a yellow one. a green one... a red one... a blue one... A black one... Olympia Loopings! And then there were loopings! It spins really fast and keeps you hanging upside down for a long time. What more do people want? Vortex is a great ride. I just wonder why there were so few people on it.

Wishmaster Posted August 13, 2006 Author Share Posted August 13, 2006 Part two Schwarzkopf by night! Althou the theming made up for that. To bad the ride wasn't that good. It's an indoor KMG Move It. Out of Space had a really cool "gate". I really doubt this one can go any faster than it already does! I really enjoyed that ride! A hint: If the opp askes if you want to go again, yell "Nein". As a punishment, he might let you have the extra rounds at an ever higher speed than normal! The "Herr der Lufte" was there as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masked_Maverick Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 Awesome TPR and even better pics. Makes me wonder why no American Fairs can be that good and have Scwarzkopf loopers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canobie Fan Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 and have Scwarzkopf loopers? There is/was one. A clone of Dorneys Laser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pkdcoaster Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 Very Awesome PTR, I love fair atmosphere's and I would stay at our state fair all week long if it was like that! At least ours has got a little better, we have a crazy mouse now JEFF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calvin Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 Yay, Olympia Looping Bahn! That ride is unbelievably good. One of the main reasons our fairs aren't like theirs is because lack of common sense prevails here in the States. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jedimaster1227 Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 The Predator looks amazing, but the Stargate looks so fake. Sorry, but Sci-Fi fans like me always criticize. I hope you had a good trip and thanks for sharing with us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcoasters Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 The Predator looks amazing, but the Stargate looks so fake. Sorry, but Sci-Fi fans like me always criticize. I hope you had a good trip and thanks for sharing with us! That's exactly what I was about to say Other than that, German fairs look really nice compared to North American fairs !

dragoncoaster1292 Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 The fair looks awesome! Olympia Looping looks amazing, and the flying wolf thing looks cool, too. "Want to go again?" "Nein." "Okay!" *woosh* "AAAAAAAAAAAAAH" Something that scared me, though, is that the Top Scan looks like the one that the woman at Adventureland got flung off of and flew into the parking lot! Even the backround is the same! I wouldn't go on that thing if I were you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Benvenuto Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 wow, the fair really doesn't look all that bad. I wish I could go, because I'm in Denmark right now, visting a friend of my mom's. But I'll back in Hanover soon. Then when there, it's too far away I think. But great TR! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krouvi Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 There is one thing I think is problematic is that if someone is sick or suffers BADLY he is doomed. While looking at the TopBuzz I spotted a girl inside that felt really bad. She was crying and looked very sick. She was hysterical and it was clear this far too much for her. the first part of the ride ended and while being in the air the ride op asked everybody if the wanted more ? - she and her friends just screamed NOOOOOOOOO and tried the best they could to show the ride op this is an emergency. But the stupid ride op didnt care and the ride continued even faster. The girl puked all over herself and the ride. She was extremly ill later and was crying outside the ride. That pissed me off and I decided not to get into any of the wilde rides out there as it was clear I might died inside and none will stop it. In a theme park each ride got its exact duration but in a fair they just do what they wish. It can be fun if you enjoy it but it can be BAD if you are sick.

coasters 4 me Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 I love German Fairs. They are always so busy, loads of lights and loads of rides. Way better than the ones we get here, with like 5 rides. How lame. All I can say is absolutely great pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coastered Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 I've also visited the cranger kirmis, but that was last week. Here are some of the pics i've taken that day (august 6th). Here is some information about this great Schwartzkopf coaster. Translation of those stats Below: * Length and width = 86,5m x 38,5m * Trackheight = 32,5m * Total Height = 38,5m * Track length = 1250m * special transport = 50 trucks * Max speed = 100km/h * inclination = 90degrees * total weight = 1050tons * number of trains/passengers = 5 trains of 28 passengers * Construction time = 5 days * Operating since = 1989 (First fair = Munich Oktoberfest) The Spinning Racer. That crazy Vortex ride The massive crowd A topspin A break dance Another beer tent The worlds largest transportable waterride, WildWasser III One of the many beer tents. A fun house. The Hip Hop Fly One of the many ghosttrains. Live Boxing (See Stats Above) Do you all know that Olympia Looping is the largest transportable coaster in the world??

coastered Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 But Olympia Looping is not the only large transportable coaster traveling along German fairs. Here are some pics i have taken from those coasters at the Dusseldorf fair last july. Another great coaster is the "Alpina Bahn". This is a large and very smooth Schwartzkopf speedcoaster. First the worlds only and largest transportable inverted coaster called "Euro Star". It´s nickname is "Euro Ouch" because of it´s very rough ride. This coaster is build by Intamin.
