This is beyond cool! The touches like the models elevates it to the "Disney GOLD standard" I like how the slides come OUT of the building. The waterfall marque is very nice as well.
When my wife and I visited Europa-Park, Rulantica was still being built. Oh well, just an excuse for us to return to our favorite park in the world some day!
This is great info. Glad to hear you can knock out this park in about 2 hours. I like waterparks, but I love theme parks so I wouldn't want to sacrifice time from Europapark. Totally agree with you that indoor waterparks normally have kind of a tacky feel. I normally avoid them.
AQUARENA is a well known and very(!) common austrian/german slide manufacturer in middle europe --> And they are also the *inventor of the Looping Slides* (but meanwhile most of the other manufacturers copied this concept) --> But I think, they are also still the only ones, which have built there rare *double-looping slides* The biggest "problem" at RULANTICA are there Slides itself (at least for german water enthusiasts) --> Because they have decide for ProSlide as there main manufacturer, there slides are really boring in therms of optics..... Normally daylight effects, LED-effects and multimedia/interactive effects are highly(!) common for modern slides in europe....you will also barely find any indoor water parks with ProSlide or White Water West (outside the UK) here. Wiegand Waterrides (German), AQUARENA (Austrian/German) and KLARER Systems (Switzerland) are by far the most common manufacturers in western/middle europe :).
Im not far from Europapark, so I know everything about the Europapark Resort and Waterpark. They defently plan to install some water attractions, which you only find in theme parks. Therefore, they gonna build a second slide tower for 2023 and in the near future they will build a second indoor area as big as the excisting one. Originally, it was planned to open the park with both halls. However, they first decided on a hotel that is to open with Rulantica back in 2019. 3 years later, they have a VR underwater attraction, sauna area, a large outdoor area and are already planning the next slide tower. For this season, another water attraction is to be created from summer. Europapark is expanding more and more. Can't wait until the new Voltron Coaster roller coaster opens in 2023.
What a great video about a little-mentioned park. The miniatures in the lobby are unbelievable. But kind of lol at that 3-euro evening "discount." Money's money, I guess!
That body bowl slide looks great, I don’t like falling into the pool head first but the thrill is worth it. That would probly be my favorite slide. I don’t see myself visiting anytime soon tho.
I have recently visited Rulantica and tried the new for 2023 mat racer Vikingløp. The slide was pretty intense. The middle was the most intense sides though. You get some nice speed on them and is a lot of fun.
If you did another countdown of your favorite waterparks, surely this would have to make the list because of the great theming and the fact that the lazy river is basically a dark ride on an inner tube.
@@CanobieCoaster you should also do favorite slides, although it’ll be mostly water coasters but there has to be more especially after going to a lot new waterparks
Very suprised that you didn't mention about the fake slides themed as snakes that wrap around the real slikes in the outdoor section. Whoever came up with that idea is a pure genius!
Well never mind the swim up bars. He didn't even talk about the lazy river. And with all those special effects inside of it, I would've thought he'd talk much more about it. That makes me worried that he didn't go on it.
Funny you mentioned no attendants atop the slides because that's actually not uncommon with European waterparks. In fact, according to a video I saw on TUBERIDES, wave pools and lazy rivers are nowhere near as common in Europe as they are in America.
I'm from the UK, and I've only ever been to one waterpark without a wave pool: Sun Centre 2. (The Boomerang slide was fun and very big, but my mum hurt her foot on it - I prefer ProSlide Tornadoes) Although, I can't really speak for Europe more generally because the only waterparks I've been to outside the UK are Siam Park and Aqualand Mallorca, but they also both had wave pools.
I want to go there once, but I also think that proslide was a poor choice for their slides, wiegand or klarer (with all their crazy light and multi media effects) would have been far better, just look at tuberides channel. I also agree with the missing water coaster, but for now an 8 lane mat racer will be installed in late 2022
I love this Water Park, have you been to any in the UK and if so what ones?? And know you haven't vlogged any from Efteling/Duinrell in Holland.Sure you know of them but have you been to them?? I'm from UK in England in county of Kent. 😁
I have not visited any UK water parks. I would have done the indoor one at Alton Towers if it was open later than the park. I went to Efteling for a second time recently.
@@CanobieCoaster Well next time you go to Alton Towers, spend 2 days at the park instead of one! Def visit Duinrell when next in Holland! When in UK have you been to Blackpool Pleasure Beach, when you go there next please do a video vlog or a video of you talking about you been there-then visit Water Park there-Sandcastle Water Park! 😁
The yellow(?) Button is an "abort"-Button, where you normally can change your mind and re-open de door from inside to left the slide. --> This one all of Aquarenas self operated slides have. (of cause) The red one is an "alarm" or "SOS" button. I think this one is for contact someone --> Not at every slide, this one is connected (or "existing") and sometimes the "abort"-Button is the red one. Other models of this are for example mostly in Germany: -Dünen-Therme, Sankt-Peter-Ording (Germany) -Atlantis, Herzogenaurach (Germany | Near to Nürnberg and the big "Kristall Palm Beach" water park) -F.3., Fellbach (Germany)
@@CoaterKook Funfact: There is no self operated looping slide, becausw you need staff for controlling the emergency exit. (or exit's --> for the few double-looping slides from Aquarena)
Der Boden ist sehr rutschig und gefährlich, mein Mann hat sich das Bein gebrochen und es wurde gesagt, dass das in diesen Einrichtungen sehr oft vorkommen. Sie sollten für Krankenhausaufenthalte aufgrund des Bodens verantwortlich gemacht werden
This is beyond cool! The touches like the models elevates it to the "Disney GOLD standard" I like how the slides come OUT of the building. The waterfall marque is very nice as well.
The funny thing about the waterfall marquee is that I only ended up in front of it since I turned down the wrong road.
Slides coming out of the building is very normal for an indoor waterpark. At least in Europe. They come out of the building more often than not.
When my wife and I visited Europa-Park, Rulantica was still being built. Oh well, just an excuse for us to return to our favorite park in the world some day!
Agreed!

I really agree with you, I was expecting better slide visuals.

I prefer going into the pool.

Good to hear!
The droptracks slides are snappy enough already haha. Your first expeience here must be so funny!
It was. I learned quickly what that button did.
If you did another countdown of your favorite waterparks, surely this would have to make the list because of the great theming and the fact that the lazy river is basically a dark ride on an inner tube.
It likely would.

Those look cool. I kept trying to find them until I realized they were fake.
@@CanobieCoaster I do agree that it needs a water coaster, would be a great fit for the park.
Wow I never heard of this park before. Great video!
It's really new.
Aquarena is a very popular German slide manufacturer. They are very common at German waterparks
Good to know!
Not a bad review - but you totally missed one awesome element. Swim up pool bars!!! We spent a fair few hours drinking cocktails!
I am not a big drinker so that's something I've never tried.
@@CanobieCoaster You don't need to drink alcohol, just get a soda or something!
Well never mind the swim up bars. He didn't even talk about the lazy river. And with all those special effects inside of it, I would've thought he'd talk much more about it. That makes me worried that he didn't go on it.
Wow! This is more akin to Phantasialand than Europa Park!
It's amazingly well themed for a water park.
this place looks awesome
It is.
I would actually try a drop pod slide if I dropped immediately, the suspense is what keeps me away
So you'd like the button. Most have the countdown at least.
Europa park is basically owned by Mack rides, the other can you drink out of my head is that zamperla owns Luna park in coney island
True!
Funny you mentioned no attendants atop the slides because that's actually not uncommon with European waterparks. In fact, according to a video I saw on TUBERIDES, wave pools and lazy rivers are nowhere near as common in Europe as they are in America.
Even a lot of dry rides are self operated over there.

@@CanobieCoaster something like those big water coasters in holiday world would fit

I know.
Are you on this trip right now and making the reviews at a hotel or are you at home making the vids
I've been home for a few weeks. I couldn't do some of the parks on this trip now with the new regulations the EU is rolling out for US citizens.
I love this Water Park, have you been to any in the UK and if so what ones??
And know you haven't vlogged any from Efteling/Duinrell in Holland.Sure you know of them but have you been to them??

looks amazing, did you find out what the other buttons do on the trapdoor slides?
No, I was scared to press them!
@@CanobieCoaster dont blame you after you just got dropped instantly without a countdown or anything

I wish the great wo/lf lodges went all out with theming like this too
Few water parks do.
Are men and women sharing changing rooms and showers in Rulantica?
Separate
I believe if they are done with rulantica Europa park might built a second gate theme park
I'd love that!
Disney over here thinking they got the best theming.
Disney theming is great too. That just shows how special this park is.
When does Linnanmäki review come out?
Sometime in the next 1-2 months. Trying to bounce around the parks and rides.
@@CanobieCoaster ok! Thanks for answering and keep up the good work
Thanks, I'm trying to review major rides but will double back to parks with reviews and countdowns.

Sorry to hear it was slippery. I moved slow on the pavement to be safe.
It's ana amazing park but i still think Sian Park and Caribe Bay are better...
I still need to visit those ones.
How is your hot water pleasure guilty
It's an underrated part of indoor water parks.
are there bars at rulantica?
I think so, but I didn't look for them.
@@CanobieCoaster nah i know you’re not a drinker. but i am a themed bar and restaurant nerd so i would definitely love to explore that side of europa
@@CanobieCoaster theres a bar in europa called crocodile bar that seems cool and the magellan lounge
@@CanobieCoaster Oh my god the rulantica Bars!!!!!!! might make it worth a trip for me
Yeah there are 2 pool bars. one indoor and one outdoor.
