- I have ridden over 1000 roller coasters, but one stands above the rest as the worst roller coaster I have ever ridden. And that ride is Coaster Express at Parque Warner Madrid. This RCCA wooden roller coaster is the roughest and most painful coaster I have ever ridden.

As much as I enjoy a good positive coaster review, there’s something satisfying about hearing a terrible coaster deservedly get ripped to shreds.
Same! At least I gave the ride credit for it's 2 meek airtime hills that are surrounded by mediocrity.
I just want to see you tear apart an AWFUL park.
Wild Adventures is the Mind Eraser of all theme parks to me.
@@CanobieCoaster Looks like a worthy RMC converter right here. That and/or a family coaster by Gravity Group that would have more airtime points than Roar-o-saurus
It's times like this that make me appreciate what a great job Holiday World does maintaining their woodies.
That park does an amazing job taking care of their wood coasters.
It has been horrible since It opens, Parque Warner, at this point, is making the third retrack to this Ride. It isn't a mantainance issue, the problem is the poor Ride desing of RCCA
Kings island too
@@alextoriolorente5227yeah, rcca makes cheap, poorly built coasters. Even a park as popular as kings island struggled to maintain their coasters, just because they're so badly built, intact they were illegally built in many cases, such as by having sub companies build coasters for them to avoid lawsuits. That's illegal, but rcca somehow got away with it.
And knoebels!
Brutally rough coasters like this make me appreciate how well places like Holiday World and Knoebels take such good care of their woodies.
It really does.
I'm so happy to see a Coaster Express review !
Coaster fandom is very USA centric, with only really big parks from Europe and Japan getting a little bit of attention. Being based in Madrid I've always asked me how good or bad some of the rides here would rank against american coasters, because Coaster Express feels like a very very awful and brutal ride. It's so brutal that I've develop a strange masochist love for it. It's not about airtime or fun, it's just about being able to survive it. I don't even want it to be an RMC just because as a bad ride as it is, it's unique. Funny that people usually intimidated by Stunt falls, Batman or Superman end up feeling safer with that woodie and riding it .
For anyone reading this, if you ever found yourself on the top of that lift hill, NEVER rest your back in the seat. Just lean forward. Trust me, it would hurt a lot less.
I agree leaning forward helps, but there was nothing I could do to protect my legs. I agree some of the smaller parks overseas deserve attention as well.
I wonder how this would look like as an RMC
I'm dreaming of a spiraling barrel roll first drop and some crazy airtime hills. But most importantly, it wouldn't try to kill you.
wonder no more because EliteCoasters is making a NL2 concept.
@@CanobieCoaster unfortunately, that's not happening anytime soon.
All big Spanish parks, save Port Aventura wich is the lone crown jewel of Spanish amusement rides, are huge money sinks that only stay up because of the horribly corrupt polytical system. They cost millions of dollars a year to just stay up on a reasonable condition, never mind investing in new attractions.
In fact the ONLY reason the other RCCA on Spain, the SBNO Magnus Colossus in Terra Mítica, hasn't yet been torn down is that it would be too expensive to demolish.
Being an Australian we don’t have wooden coasters (currently) and Coaster Express was my first wooden coaster and I tell everyone it was horrible, however everyone says ‘that’s what wooden coasters are about’.... I’m glad you made this video to make me feel my thoughts were warranted! Since then I’ve been on many other coasters but this one is burnt into my memory, that and Lost City of Gold Scream Coaster at Sunway Lagoon in Malaysia 😱
Wood coasters aren't supposed to make you feel like you've gone 10 rounds in the boxing ring!
You have Leviathan, a Gravity Group woodie, coming to Sea World in Queensland sometime next year.
@@Lucky_9705 I actually work at Sea World and have watched it slowly be built! I’m so excited, hoping to be one of the first to ride, it’ll be nice to have a woodie in Australia again
@@clowntoon That’s cool to hear. Sometime when I’m in college on summer break, I’m thinking of planning a 2-3 week trip to Brisbane. It’s going to depend on the border situation by then, but I still hope to do it someday and visit the theme parks in Australia 🇦🇺.
@@clowntoon That ride looks like it could be the best coaster in Australia! Seems reminiscent of Boardwalk Bullet at Kemah Boardwalk!
this is my home park and it’s a shame that this thing still exists, i remember i rode it a long time ago and couldn’t even process what was going on in the ride because of the back pain i was getting
sadly i think parques reunidos would tear this thing apart before converting it to an rmc because not a single roller coaster has been added to this park since it opened in 2002 :(
great news is that it’s confirmed that we’re getting a new intamin blitz coaster this year or the next :), i’m really excited to try that one out
It's confirmed to be a blitz? That's awesome!
If I can’t even see what’s happening in a POV, then I get the review so much more!
There aren't many clear POVs of this ride given the park's strict filming policy.
This coaster is just legitimately SCREAMING to be given the RMC treatment. Just imagine what RMC could do with the layout.
This and Magnus Colossus look to be prime candidates for an RMC conversion, especially Magnus Colossus, because Terra Mitica can’t keep that ride SBNO forever, they have to at least do something with it.
Hopefully one day!
Since Colossus is the one closed, I say RMC that one and keep Coaster Express as is, as a living monument for how NOT to design a roller coaster and the perfect place to leave your extended family in while you enjoy the park.
I think that would be a good idea!
Son of Beast jackhammered so bad I felt my heart skip a beat in the second rose bowl… 😂. I rode it twice in 2005 and the second time was at close and maintenance was there to shut the ride down. When we pulled in our group was moaning and groaning about how bad the ride was and the maintenance guy gave me a smirk 😏 like he enjoyed our pain. 😂 It was the worst but most memorable rides. Don’t miss it but glad I got on.
I think I dodged a bullet with that one.
This looks like Son of Beast at some parts and look at that it’s built by the same company RCCA
Son of Beast is not a ride coasters should aspire to be.
And Spain used to have a second one of these, Magnus Colossus. It's been rotting for a decade, waiting for the time the park somehow manages to get enough money to afford the demolition costs.
If you ever go Spain, go straight to Port Aventura and ignore every other major park besides maybe Parque Warner at Madrid. You will thank me later, trust me.
It's saying enough that the tiny Tibidabo, wich is mostly kid rides and museum and has just 2 family bordering on kiddie coasters total, is still better than all of them.
I'm the masochist that rode it three times. Hey, I had a fast pass and was bored of the 10 minute dispatches on Batman.
Final ride was a night ride. Well away from the park in the dark, with the lights & revelry in the distance, I imagine this is what The Beast is like at night, only nowhere near this rough hopefully.
Beast is certainly smoother.
I heard that coaster express got a retrack recently, and that its smoother now. But that still doesnt make it less boring.
I agree.
I'm Australian and the roughest coaster I have ever ridden is Gold Coaster at Dreamworld, and seeing what American enthusiasts call rough, I'm glad I became an enthusiast when I did so I could avoid these awful rides.
I didn't find Gold Coaster uncomfortable. The vest restraints help mightily.
“I don’t have a history of back issues but felt like I did” 🤣 🤣 😂
It's brutal.
You see can the roughness in the POV footage.
Absolutely!
I can't imagine that the Intamin trains help with the roughness. My impression is they are quite heavy compared to other wooden coaster trains, since they are designed for pre-fabs that have much stronger track and support structures. Using them on a traditional wooden coaster seems to have resulted in relentless jackhammering. Since this was built in 2002, I think they should've gotten a pre-fab if they wanted a massive wooden coaster, but anyone who goes with RCCA is trying to build on the cheap, so I doubt they could've afforded a pre-fab.
That's possible. The trains here are especially bad for those t bars.
Also Stengel's earliest wooden coaster layout is just not that good for demigod like him. He's too much focused on lateral and absolutely not care about airtime. Hence most of of his creation had spaghetti bowl element, and only made RCCA show it's true color.
Only the time Intamin introduced Prefab, his name on wooden coaster was restored
Yeah this would definitely be the perfect project for Rocky Mountain Construction. Son of Beast would have been a great idea as well but Kings Island chose not to do it because they were afraid that that ride received too much bad publicity. SO let's hope that doesn't happen with this coaster as well. For the record my least favorite coaster is the old Hurler at Kings Dominion. Thank goodness it became Twisted Timbers.
I hope Parques Reunidos shows a willingness to work with RMC.
idk if this should even be rmced
If there's one woodie in the whole world that needs to be RMCd, it's this.
I hope it happens. That would complete the park and rid the world of this torture device.
and thunderhawk
@@dhubxudxdgvshdvsd6845 Thunderhawk is 99 years old.
@@giancarlofelicianocastaned9316 so what i still what it RMC'd
My roughest credit is probably The Beast. I rode it for the first time about six months ago. I knew it would be rough, but not that rough. Glad they’re re-tracking it now. Nevertheless, I still enjoyed it for its setting and intensity.
And that one is long too if you find it rough.
The roughest coaster I've ridden was not a woodie. It was Drachen Fire. We all know the story of Drachen Fire. And it wasn't so much jackhammering as just massive headbanging on all the transitions.
I heard bad things about that one.
@@CanobieCoaster Honestly, in some ways I really liked it! It was fantastically exciting, the layout was great and if it had been made by... say... B&M, or today's S&S, it could have been an excellent ride. But Arrow screwed up the execution.
I could see it being a polarizing ride if it were open today, kind of like Skyrush, with attitudes depending on whether you think the pain is worth it. Except that I suppose giant multi-loopers are not so much the fashion today.
If Parque Warner Madrid decides to RMC this thing, they will have, no questions, the best top two of any park in the world. My sister is going to go to Spain to train to become a professional tennis player, so I can see myself visiting this park a lot in the next few years. My first visit will most likely be this year and I can't wait to ride Batman Gotham City Escape, but if Parque Warner Madrid RMCs this, they will end up with two top 5 coasters, something not even Cedar Point could boast. Joe Draves has proven himself to be just as capable as Alan Schilke, if not more, and an RMC Coaster Express could put current coaster greats like Steel Vengeance and Iron Gwazi to shame.
The top 2 truly would be special with an RMC and Batman.
This was my first wooden coaster and I thought they were all like that. Made me terrified of wooden coasters.
This one is an abomination.
lol my first was like the bobsleds at seabreeze
For bad coasters like Time Warp (if you like it, opinion respected), I usually just ride it once for the credit and never again. But if I was at Parque Warner Madrid, I would genuinely question riding this even if it meant missing out on a credit.
It was retracked after I made this review. It's still atrocious, but marginally better.
I remember riding Bandit in the early to mid-2000s and it was doing fine. Sometimes a but rough, but never horribly painful. But it got worse and worse over the years. And then I road Rolling Thunder at Six Flags Great Adventures in 2012 (basically right before its closer) and I literally almost started crying because of how painful it was. I was honestly worried my appendix would rupture. It was hooooorrrible! I think didn't even ride both sides, because I couldn't take it.
Rolling Thunder never caused me pain. It's biggest offense was usually being boring.
Great video, and holy wow that thing looks terrible!
Personally, the worst coaster that I've ever ridden was Twist n Shout at Family Kingdom because of the immense pain that it caused and how there are 0 redeeming factors
Twist n Shout is ok to me. Did you find the laterals painful? I remember hating the clone at Rye Playland when I was younger since I wasn't expecting them.
@@CanobieCoaster I actually love some good strong laterals, but what I found painful was the constant smashing of every part of my body into the unpadded car
I hate wild mouse coasters in general that is my most hated
You're a brave man riding that twice.
Brave/stupid. Sort of blended together here.
When I play Planet Coaster I try and remake wooden coasters as RMC’s but I’m not sure how this would look as an RMC
I picture a spiraling barrel roll drop, but I'm sure Alan Schilke could do wonders with this layout.
I also ridden two RCCAs, Son of Beast and Rattler. I'm one of those weirdos that liked SOB (even though it was rough). Now Rattler was horrid LOL.
You're in the minority.
I totally agree. I work as a roller coaster engineer and can not believe this machine is still running. I was on it this week and it is by far the most painful roller coaster I know of. Those vertical kicks are so brutal, they feel like they might break either the coaster or the rider. Definitely borderline unsafe. The ongoing draught in Spain doesnt help this in the least. Please dont go on this ride and Warner, please scrap this thing.
I dream of it being RMCed.
I believe this ride closed for a massive retracking, it will prob be better but it would still be boring with no fun elements. Good vid!
It can only improve!
as a brazillian, your description of this felt eerily similar to montezum... yet this SOMEHOW looks even worse...
I've heard bad things about that ride.
@@CanobieCoaster yeah it is pretty bad hahaha! im not surprised!
I have a strange fascination with rough wooden rides like predator, Montezum, Hercules, bandit, etc.
I would really love to ride one of those, especially since I think ghostrider and apocalypse are simply too smooth, and I loved ghostrider pre-retrack
But I’m not so sure I would like to go on this one, although I could see how this could be more of an endurance test than a pleasant ride, like a challenge to see if you can stand the roughness
I don't find rides this rough pleasant myself.
Its not only that Bandit and Montezum are simply rought (thats the two Ive ridden), they are incredibly boring too. Bandit at least has 1-2 redeaming pops of airtime and the park is making some efforts to retrack some parts. But Montezum is so forceless and pretty much doesnt do anything, plus the structure is visibly in very poor maintenance, that just the setting alone is its only redeeming quality.
I have only ridden one RCCA, the Rattler. Terrible, but I think Texas Giant was worse. I'm not sure on those, since it was so long ago that I rode them, once each, in my GP days. Great American Scream Machine at SFOG gave me the roughest, worst ride of my life, but my 2nd ride was fairly smooth. My least favorite coaster ever is Firebird, which is rough, and has guaranteed headbanging. I think that most of my roughest steel coasters are B&Ms. I can handle the bad transitions of Arrow and old Vekoma, but the B&M rattle kills me.
I haven't ridden Firebird since it was converted to the floorless coaster, but that was the one stand-up I hated. I couldn't get a smooth ride even with my trick for riding them.
I never rode the original Rattler or Texas Giant, but I agree Great American Scream Machine is another brutally rough one. At least that one has some good airtime along the way.
Well I’ve never ridden any coaster from RCCA as most of them are either too far away or closed before 2010 (the year I was born)
But the roughest coaster I’ve ridden is La Vibora at SFOT.
This is way worse than La Vibora.
"Rocky Mountain Construction, How may I help you?"
"Yes Im calling from Madrid. Id like to report a trainwreck......."
Lol
I went today and despite the recent retracking some people mentioned, it was still extremely rough. Maybe not enough to hurt my back but I didn't care for a second ride.
Honestly all coasters in Parque Warner - with maybe the exception of Batman - are very shaky.
I'm glad they're getting the new coaster next year.
RCCA makes Dinn Corporation coasters look elite, not going to lie. It made Mean Streak look like an elite wood coaster. At least Mean Streak was more well-liked, and it actually made the top 10 wood coasters in its early years. RCCA is like taking people who worked in grocery stores and got 50s on their physics and engineering exams, and told them to design and build these roller coasters. I'm surprised some of their rides are still in existence, and I'm surprised you actually liked Bandit at Movie Park Germany :D But Bandit did get retracking last year I believe. This company was the epitome of just money seekers, and their roller coasters looked atrocious. The track work looked like it was designed by children, the transitions looked like they just needed extra space to cover in the layout, the wood was probably C-grade at best, and their layouts looked like everyone wanted to go on vacation early. And Intamin trains on this ride? Intamin's pre-fabricated wood coaster trains deserve a better ride. And I also think that because of the hot conditions, the wood is bound to be in worse conditions and not last very well. I know that happened with Gwazi at Busch Gardens.
I want to clarify. I didn't like Bandit. I just didn't hate it. It was slow and dull, not painful. RCCA was a trainwreck.
@@CanobieCoaster RCCA totally ruined the Coney Island Cyclone model with Bandit and White Canyon
@@TonyKimtheamusementparkfan I never rode White Canyon. I agree Bandit is an insult to the original, but I didn't find it as horrifically bad as most.
@@CanobieCoaster Yeah, White Canyon was definitely the worst of the Cyclone models. I saw that Bandit did get retracked in some sections, so at least Movie Park Germany has some intentions of keeping it for a bit more. I'm surprised they still have their Premier Rides trains on the ride. Probably not as heavy as the ones on Son of Beast obviously, since the train wasn't as long.
It's interesting that people hate Arrow Dynamics or even Dinn Corporation for their old rides. But they actually knew how to build roller coasters. Arrow had Ron Toomer and Alan Schilke at one point, and Dinn had Charles Dinn who was part of Kings Island's maintenance team, so they had people who knew what they were doing. Arrow coasters especially have more historic value than every trainwreck of a coaster RCCA has ever created :D RCCA had people who barely knew what a wood coaster was or what physics and engineering were.
My parents got to ride Magnus Colossus at Terra Mítica during their first visits and they had a uncomfortable and rough ride. When Magnus Colossus was closed, the other rides and roller coasters at the park are open. They have a Vekoma SLC, a family coaster, a log flume, a Shoot the Chute, a dark interactive ride, a drop tower ride, and also in summer a carousel, a river rapids ride, etc.
I heard that one was rough.
Coaster express was horrendous, one of the roughest rides I’ve ridden!
It's awful!
RCCA went out with a (head)bang
Lol
Someone should have told them: If you want to bang heads, don't build coasters, go to a rock and heavy metal festival! That's what I do. If I want to ride a coaster, I don't want headbanging, I want a somewhat smooth (at least not torturing) and entertaining ride. ^^
If you think Zeus is smooth, this has to be hellish.
It seems like Mt. Olympus retracked Zeus before I rode it in 2019 because others who have ridden it in the past year also found it smooth. All the older accounts describe it as brutally rough.
It looks like a GCI after the first drop if they had wide turns like this
And it also doesn't have the small airtime pops like a GCI.
Much more than 15 years ago I had my last ride in Montezum at Hopi Hari (Brazil) and it was painful. The coaster didn't even have 10 years. I left with a bruise in my thigh from hitting the side of the seat/car. I can't imagine how it is today and I don't wanna find out. If you go to Google you will read people asking the park to close the ride, because some of them had injuries in the back/neck after riding it. But because it's the only real coaster (and only wooden coaster) in Brazil, it still standind.
Oh, the other "big coaster" we have here is a SLC 😂 never ridden it, so I don't know if it is (that) bad.
I've heard Montezum is terrible.
did you know that Bandit had the same trains as Coaster Express, luckily they replaced the trains with Premier Rides trains, probably the one that the Son of Beast had before the accident.
I'm glad Bandit doesn't have the T-bars anymore!
Wasn't Rough When I Rode It But That "Layout" Is Abysmal
They did some retracking after I filmed this to make it more bearable, but it's still awful.
Although with the reopening would you like to ride Coaster Express again, or no? or all the other roller coasters?
I would give it a try, but up front.
I can tell this thing needs to be RMC badly I wonder how RMC doesn’t know about how rough this coaster is already
It's bad.
@@CanobieCoaster I know that’s why I said it needs to be RMC like soon maybe next year
I rode this a few weeks ago, and while it was a bit rough in places, I really didn't think it was so bad. Has it been re-tracked? There are two wooden coasters at Blackpool Pleasure Beach worse than this. Grand National, for example, seems unsafe.
It was retracked after I made this video. I rerode it this year. It was smoother, but still rough with a bad layout.
I have Bandit in my Homepark, the other RCCA here in Europe. I salute to my spanish Pain-Brothers and Sisters
They did not make good coasters.
What means "my shock to see a giant twister that looked like a smaller Son of Beast minus the loop"?
I was surprised to see a ride that looked like the now defunct Son of Beast coaster.
Not-so-fun fact: RCCA does not have a single coaster in the top 1000 of captain coaster’s poll, and coaster express is the worst of them
That's impressively bad.
How does that thing not tear itself apart from the forces involved? 😅 From the POV it seems inevitable that it should be shooting 2x4's in all directions.
It does not track well.
We need a full documentary on RCCA vs. CCI.
In short, I preferred CCI.
I agree. But both are bad for different reasons.
Every RCCA coaster has been noted for being rough and boring layouts from what I've read.
It's their trademark.
From what I've read, RCCA were also pulling off a lot of extremely dodgy crap in order to try to undercut other manufacturers and not get sued. Good riddance.
What do you think about Stunt Fall at Parque Warner Madrid with the original train and Goliath at Six Flags New England with the Premier train? both are Vekoma giant inverted boomerangs
Stunt Fall and Goliath's old train are/were fun.
"Grizzly, Wilde Beast and Mighty Canadian Minebuster? not good but smooth enough". Which "Grizzly" were you referring, Grizzly at Kings Dominion or Grizzly at California's Great America?
California's Great America Grizzly. That one is routinely considered one of the world's worst coasters.
Oh lord... Coaster express is horrible yes, but I'm glad you didn't ride Magnus Colossus at Terra Mitica. Trust me, I have been many many times on both of them and Magnus Colossus was WAY more painful that CE.
Magnus Colossus looks like it has an amazing setting, but I imagine RCCA would mess it up based on their other work.
Jackhammering is the one thing that I just can't tolerate. For me, the worst roller coaster I have ever ridden was Hurler at KD the year before it closed. It introduced a new type of jackhammering I had never experienced before, SIDEWAYS jackhammering on the turns. It had it all, up and down plus side to side jackhammering. Lots of really ear piercing metal on metal scraping sounds as well pot holes aplenty. That ride was pure torture. It felt like it had 20,000 feet of track for that ride.
I am lucky Hurler never gave me a brutal ride.
As much as I love old school wooden coasters, I'd been fine if all the rcca ones collapsed.
I would have said that before RMC. I want this ride converted.
Well, the RCCAs aren't really old school anyway, so...
@@gregorymoore2877 Looking from how Stengel designed wooden coaster layout during RCCA era and during Prefab era show how fast the RCCA coaster went outdated, even if somehow they were glass smooth
Finally there is one guy who tells the truth :) This coaster is the worst of the worse :D From beginning to end, pure hell.
It's atrocious.
This easily sounds like the worst coaster ever, and I thought I have experienced some rough ones! 🤕
The only thing it could be good for is if it's transformed into an RMC one day.
@@CanobieCoaster since it’s such a large structure, that’d be ideal! 🙏🏼
Coaster Express **NEEEEEDS** to be renovated by RMC.
I wish!
Once dispatched, the train passes through a section with views of the west section. Then makes a left turn to the lift hill. Once they reached the lift hill, it drops to a supersized helix. After the helix, it drops to a giant camelback. After the camelback, it goes to a giant turnaround to the right. The train then goes to another big helix, then there's a finale, a bunny hill and a turnaround, followed by another bunny hill and another turnaround. What do you think about the final bunny hills and turnarounds?
I cover that in the review.
I like how you didn't even put the question mark like usual, like there's no debate this is the worst rollercoaster
It's a clear number one.
@@CanobieCoaster Goudurix at Parc Astérix is a really bad coaster.
In 2022 Coaster Express has reopened since it was closed during the pandemic. I don't know if that reopening and recent retracking did make the ride better or worse. What do you think?
I haven't ridden it in 4 years, but I heard they made it smoother. I still think the layout isn't all that good.
What means
"I have an extreme tolerance for rough wooden roller coasters, I can tolerate almost any wooden roller coaster as long as doesn't bash your head.
Hades 360? Amazing
Predator and Zeus? Great
Grizzly, Wilde Beast and Mighty Canadian Minebuster? Not good but smooth enough
Bandit? Bumpy but ridable
but I finally hit my limit with Coaster Express"
I was showing that I can deal with a bunch of rough rides, but Coaster Express is too much.
The roughest in my opinion is Grand National at Blackpool Pleasure Beach. It was so brutal. I rode it in 2019, & by the time I got off, I was convinced I had bruised by butt. However some people say that ride is good.
I liked that ride in 2017, but it was rough.
It looks like it gives no airtime except those last bunny hills
That is correct.
and the bunny hills give mild floater in the summer, in the winter the coaster crawls over all the layout
What a crappy ride
Agreed!
It looks so boring!
It's painful!
Would you like to ride this again, it has reopened in 2022 since it was closed in 2020 and 2021 for the pandemic?
I've heard it got some trackwork. I'd try it again, but I have very low expectations.
They might have to remove coaster express and replace it with something else like how son of beast at kings island got removed and replaced by banshee
I would love for it to be RMCed. The structure has a lot of potential.
Terra Mítica also reopened in 2022 since it was closed during the pandemic
That's good!
RMC which it stands for (in my book) R- Really M- My C- Care! RMC really is my care for wooden coasters.
True!
How did RCCA build Coaster Express? Coaster Express was designed to...
And how did they put the Intamin trains with T bars (used on prefabricated wood coasters) on the traditional wooden coaster?
They hired a construction crew to build it, but it is a disaster.
Usually, do you like the Intamin T bar restraints? But what happens with it in Coaster Express? Why did they install the Intamin steel and prefabricated trains and bars on a traditional rough track wooden coaster?
I love the t bars on smooth rides.
A new roller coaster was being built at Parque Warner Madrid
Batman looks amazing.
It would’ve been entertaining to watch you talk about Magnus Colossus but you never rode it no one has a review on it
That park is really out of the way and doesn't offer anything all that good.
I really wish one of the GIANT woodies was modified with better wood track. Just want one 200 ft wood coaster.
RCCA did not have the best build quality for sure.
@Canobie Coaster let's be honest the 2 most infamous bad rcca coasters were the fault of the parks not them. Kings island took over the project and finished the coaster and the spot that it derailed on that helix was finished by kings island staff. Rattler at Fiesta Texas was constantly changed by the park to compete with mean streak for largest coaster. They made them adjust the first drop which screwed the ride up.
Lol - great video. Can’t believe you rode it twice. 😂
It was a moment of weakness. I really didn't think it could get worse, but it did.
Some people think other wooden coasters found to be rougher or more painful than Coaster Express
I know some find others worse, but this is the worst for me.
Coaster Express, when opened in 2002, it was designed to...
I assume they wanted it to actually be a good ride.
A normal review of a bad wooden coaster ❌
8 minutes made up of a guy telling you how much pain a coaster can inflict ✅
This ride deserved it.
Do you think A full gci titan can save this ride?
That would make it smooth, but the layout would still be boring.
I rode this yesterday and I must say… I‘m absolutely speechless. I have not ridden a lot of intense coasters as I‘ve only been on like 20 coasters that are considered “thrilling“. This coaster was absolutely abysmal. The helix made you bounce like a jackhammer while the turns slammed you to the side like a semi truck. Worst coaster I‘ve been on and it‘s my first woodie
This needs to be RMCed!!!!
And the scary thing is that they have done some trackwork since I rode it.
@@CanobieCoaster Yes I have seen a youtube viddeo getting recommended to me about it getting retracked..
I felt the bouncing when I rode Hell Cat at Clementon Park my head was bouncing the most
@@rollercoasterheaven2170 trust me this is prpbably way worse
Was Thunderbolt at Luna Park rougher than Coaster Express?
Expedition GeForce at Holiday Park also uses the T bars
Was Thunderhawk at Michigan's Adventure rougher than Coaster Express?
Was Furius Baco at Port Aventura rougher than Coaster Express?
Was Wilde Beast at Canada's Wonderland rougher than Coaster Express?
Coaster Express is rougher than all of those.
Its my home park and i hate it a lot. One day I rode it 3 times in a row and finished with a headache all the day. We always want a RMC conversion but the company behind Parque Warner seems like dont mind at all. The last addition to the park was 10 years ago. Im sorry for all the people that had experienced this monster. If you go, take the privilage of not riding it.
I'm hoping for RMC one day.
Coaster Express opened at Parque Warner Madrid in 2001, 2002 or 2003?
2002
They hired a construction crew to build it, what construction crew?
You can Google that.
Good lord! I can't even imagine riding a poorly maintained roller coaster that would make me want to cut my day short! Seems like that's what this ride did to you… 😬
It was brutal, but it has been retracked since so it's a bit better.
What means, "and like mean streak, this coaster also has a mean streak"?
It's rough.
This amount of space can be used for a frickin’ RMC T-Rex!!! (Please RMC)
I'd rather see them IBox this since the structure would have a lot of potential.
@@CanobieCoaster oh yea..
RMC...RMC...RMC...RMC!!!
I hope!
i gotta ask, what are your tricks for keeping glasses on during rides, also this would probably benefit from a GCI titan track conversion lol
I buy a $5 glasses strap to keep them on. Not only does it keep them secure, but some parks won't let you ride coasters without them (Cedar Point for example on the big rides).
Roughest rollercoaster I have ever ridden was Hercules at Dorney park in the back row. It gave me two days of migraines and my back went out for a week too, really put a damper on the trip.
I never rode that one, but heard it was bad.
@@CanobieCoaster It was good when it was new.
Your least favorite coaster was Green Lantern at Six Flags Great Adventure?
No
What would you rate Coaster Express? a 1 out of 10?
0
The worst ride I’ve ridden is the bayou lagoon dragon wagon traveling with Elliot’s amusements of Michigan. It had violent slams even on the lift, the trains were quite literally sharp. And I came off bloody and bruised. Never riding that pice of crap again
Ouch!
What means that a coaster gives a 4 out of 10? And a 3 out of 10?
Below average
