Day 4 of the camping and Coasters 2004 tour.
Tusenfryd is a beautiful mountainside theme park just south of Olso in Norway.
First stop of the day was the Allot & Lomax/ Vekoma/ Gerstlaurer woodie. And a good one at that. But not as amazing as a lot of people had hyped it up to be.
The first drop twists up into a huge airtime hill. This is then followed by some tight twist and turns and more airtime hills which provided a couple of ejector seat moments.
Loopen was a fairly smooth Vekoma Corkscrew roller coaster, which also featured a loop. There was only one nasty moment, and that was the transition after the corkscrew.
Supersplash was the ‘new for 2003’ Mack Water Coaster. Was more like a fancy Spill Water though. After ascending the lift hill there’s a dip in the track just before the turn around. The drop itself dives ‘underground’ before rising up and down into the splash itself. A very wet experience. Fun while it lasts.
Spokelses Slottet was an ok ghost house walk through.
The ‘New for 2004’ RollOver from Mondial was pretty boring. Not as good as a Topspin.
Viking Raid was an interactive cinema type ride featuring some rather cool special effects.
There was also the usual log flume etc.
All in all, Tusenfryd is a great little park with plenty to do. |
