It's great to see some parks that are not regulared covered in TPR. Keep up the good work.

mm pinfari!

Did cobra suck that much?

Cobra didn't last long considering it crashed already, when did you ride it?

It opened on June 26-27:th, we rode it on the 29:th

^^^ Yeah Cobra is crap, at least that is my opinion. Its down with Jupiter at Kijima and Space 2000 at Gyeongju World.

 

^^ As my brother said, opened 26-27:th of June, we rode it on the 29:th and it crashed on the 4:th of July.

Day 4: The final day and Piraten

 

We had saved the best coaster for last on this trip, Piraten. The biggest reason why we saved for last is that it's the coaster we really wanted to ride, and by doing this on the last day, which was a Monday, would help with crowds in the park. After the park, we just had to drive up to the ferry at Fredrikshavn to get on the ferry back home, so we had a full day at the park if we needed to.

This day we had the best weather of the whole weekend, so we had a really great time.

 

Djurs Sommerland

 

This park must be one of our favourite parks in Denmark, along with Fårup Sommerland, BonBon-land and Tivoli Gardens. Its a big place with a lot of space for future expansion, and have a good share of stuff to do for the whole family. Maybe not as many coasters as you would like, but 2 of the 3 they have are ace.

 

Rides:

Karlo's Taxi, just another kiddy ride, and yoiu don't need to borrow one to ride it

Thor's Hammer, is one of those Gerstlauer Bobsleds, and they are by definition really fun to ride, and this is no exception. It boasts insane helices, nice wild mouse turns, some great airtime and 2 really sweet transitions.

Piraten, is the new kick ass mega-lite coaster from Intamin. And there is just one thing to say about it, GO AND RIDE ONE!! They are awesome and might be one of the best additions that are made this year. It's not the tallest, but it have massive airtime over EVERY hill, especially the smallest of the twisty hills. It's smooth, fast and powerful everywhere else.

We rode it in every row, and more or less decide that the front of the train gave the best ride, both by the terms of smoothness, but also had a bit better air over the hills.

 

Now on to the final pictures from this trip:

Yay, no more driving 60!!

 

I think that we are close

 

Then a few minutes we almost wet our pants after seeing this!!

 

I want to ride you now

 

Swosh

 

Mmm, Intamin

 

Inside the entrance we saw this area, but..

 

we turned right and headed in this direction instead

 

But before I post a crap load of Piraten pr0n, here is pictures from the rest of the park first...

 

After the first ride of the day, we headed toward the kiddy area for some whoring

 

There was some scary Mexican guys at the entrance

 

Mmm, credit

 

Wonder if you can eat it?

 

Get your kids, of wait you don't need them

 

Same as the rest of them

 

You can even see Piraten from it, so it's way better then the rest of these rides

 

Credit?

 

Wonder what's behind this thing?

 

Cool, off road Go-carts, still not as cool as those at Uminonanknaknands Seaside Park

 

Then we got to this thing

 

Plain Old Norse, pretty easy

 

Hmm, a cows head, wonder what they have sacrificed it for?

 

A shot for the lift-hill geeks

 

Goat Boobs!!

 

A Viking chick

 

Thrones for the Norse Gods

 

And here we have Thor himself

 

Helixy drop

 

These turns made some Gerstlauer fart-noise

 

Even more Helices

 

MCBR!!

 

Even more Helices

 

I just love these transitions

 

See what I mean <3

 

Oh yeah, it have airtime as well

 

They have a water area

 

That have a giant bucket at the top

 

Next up was the Jungle Cruise

 

Where they have a bunch of Apes doing strange stuff

 

Like:

See what I mean

 

Then we were attacked by some hostile tribe

 

And were brought to their village

 

And they had some big Elephants there as well

 

Then we found Tarsanland

See...

 

It's a big obstacle course, not as hard as the one at Sommerland Syd though

It had some easier routes

 

Over these

 

Through a swamp

 

Nets

 

Over logs and through some crazy spinning nets

 

And then finishing it of with a Takeshis Castle moment

 

Then we entered a Cemitary that had all the famous guys from the Wild West

 

A chair swing that went both ways, and had some water feature to it

 

Rapids

 

I told you so

 

Topple tower, too bad that it was pretty lame

 

After a crazy golf session we went for the dinghy slides.

 

These are self operated and you begin by taking a dinghy

 

Put yourself in this position

 

And then press the green button, and hold on for dear life

 

While waiting for our time on the slides we saw this

 

Piraten through the TREES!!

 

Now it's time for Piraten!!

Yay, Piraten

 

I love this area, but it needs less grass

 

They have a cool broken Pirate ship though

 

Arghhh

 

Intamin awesomeness

 

Even this part is speedy

 

Mmmm, first drop

 

They have a band playing

 

They are soon going to feel some extreme pleasure

 

Wiiii, Floater

 

Going down

 

Did we say that the park was empty

 

Up again

 

Twisty

 

Since they were slow loading, I snapped this shot for the lift-hill geeks

 

This part is very fast

 

At this point of the turn around you were seeing stars

 

This is the best hill on the whole coaster

 

Another train returning a bunch of people that have been ejected

 

<3

 

These twisty hills produce some massive airtime

 

Random cool themeing

 

Even more lift-hill porn

 

Almost there

 

Wiii

 

If you don't remember which ride you are looking at

 

Exit

 

Signature shot

 

Going up the lift

 

Did we say that the park was empty

 

Even the wildlife enjoy Piraten

 

Bad operations caused this to happen on every run

 

But during those I managed to take these geek photos

 

Did I say that it have massive airtime

 

Oops I almost forgot this hill

 

POWER!!

 

Even if we could have stayed at the park a bit longer we decided to leave a bit early to be sure that we would get on the ferry, so that meant...

 

We are looking forward to your clone in a few months

 

Bye Piraten

 

We'll return in the future

 

After we left the park we saw this sign, it could only mean one thing, PUT THE PEDAL TO THE METAL!!

 

On our way to the ferry we met 3 blades that probably were going to the same power plant that the hub we drove by on the way down

 

To pass the time we had left before the ferry, we found some old bunkers:

Complete with big guns

 

It's nice to feel some power between your legs

 

The place also had a lot of sheep

 

Oooo, Bunkers

 

This place gave me some: CoD, RTCW:ET, MOHAA and other WW2 shooter flashbacks

 

These things didn't manage to stop our car on the way back to the ferry

 

We had to drive between all these trucks to get to the ferry

 

We love the fact that this Porsche driver had bikes on his roof

 

Then it was time to leave the harbour

 

The captain put the hammer down

 

Express Ferry POV

 

After a while we saw the familiar sight of the Lighthouse on Vinga

 

On our way into the Harbour we played chicken with a big cargo boat

 

Then we finally got back into Gothenburg

 

Hope you all enjoyed reading this PTR, as I did riding the coasters
