I love this RC because it evolves horizontally A LOT more than vertically, thus I don't have to hold my stomach. It's a great RC for casual park people, and still decent for adrenaline freaks. Versatility makes greatness this time. P.S: You simply CAN'T beat the Raptor's theming. That thing kept giving me gosebumps... while in queue.
That looks like it is hitting some pretty good speeds. I love the way you did the tri screens at the end. Another fantastic video Robb. Very much appreciated~ Rob/Boston
Thank you so much my friend. It has been a tough 48 plus hours seeing and hearing everyone talk about it. Such a shame and a senseless tragedy. Your note is very much appreciated~ Rob/Boston
Maybe i'm proudly italian and my judging is on the "we are better" side, but to me Raptor is a very funny ride. This is the first B&M ride in Gardaland, and first winged RC in Europe and you can sense the difference from Blue Tornado, a Vekoma inverted also in Gardaland, blue tornado breaks your neck to pieces! Raptor theming gave me the creeps all along the cue, i was shaking when i got aboard and the first drop is a punch in the stomach, but from then is pure fun, a thrilling smooth ride.
THIS IS SOME AWESOME COASTER! Yeah, come in may and try out the Smiler at Alton towers! I totally agree. 15 inversions? Wow. Well I would say Raptor fits an alien theme.
Good point. The theming and story is very well done. Didn't think it was as fast as The Swarm but Raptor's ride experience is much better i.e more head and leg choppers and a better layout.
I've been on that "UFO" ride twice now, as well as Raptor. The "UFO" is alright, pretty basic, its fun for kids. It's just an observation deck lol. Raptor is amazing. another great ride at Gardaland is Magic House. It's so mind boggling!
Well, I for one was thankful for the information having never seen one of these rides before. I guess it's a bit like you guys naming all your video's Roller Coaster, as if we hadn't worked that out yet.
GJ advertising! Im pretty sure tpr know all about it and are going to ride it. They are the biggest roller coaster channel on you tube and the internet. Im pretty sure the know where Alton Towers is and what The Smiler is. Im looking forward to it to dude, I went to AT last week and the construction looked absolutely incredible! (Sad part is I booked the trip before the delay was announced :( so i didnt get to ride). Anyway, move discussion to tpr's forums...
How does this one compare to the other wing riders, in your opinion? This one, even with all the great head-choppers & theming, just seems... tame, for lack of better words. What are your thoughts?
this coaster is reminds me of The Swarm at Thorpe park The cars are almost identical, it actually looks a lot better and more photogenic than The Swarm, The Swarm will always be my favourite though :D
In Cedar Point which is in Sandusky Ohio, there is a roller coaster called The Raptor or Raptor. I think that the ride at Cedar Point is way better than the one in this video.
that's a shame... but it still looks a great ride though! the swarm at thorpe park is 39m high, so i think their height restriction must be a bit less than that at gardaland... and anyway it was a prototype wing rider, so maybe wasn't ready to implement the drop that the new ones have.
To be honest, I don't see the point in the backward seats. The whole point of The Swarm was to see the close collisions but backwards you won't get the sense of colliding with them once they've passed. I could be wrong, I will just have to see in May.
Can't argue with 1 I guess but as for 2....there is a slight difference. Which is this a, ya know...B&M which are known for their super smoothness. Opposed to Arrows which are torture devices. So I think the concern is a bit misplaced.
I swear Italy has the most underrated but awesome theme parks.
It's got a bunch of near-miss elements and it goes through trees... I'm sold. I love coasters that use the terrain like that.
Me too

Amazing coaster, love the theming, really good attention to detail.
Raptor is AMAZING *___*
OMG, really??!?! You mean, it's actually NOT a UFO??? Mind Blown. I had no idea.
Really smooth and awesome ride, and is the first of its kind, but it was kind of small. Still a great and smooth ride! Love the theming!
One of the smoothest ride and it has very very comfy seats!
They’re so comfy I couldn’t even believe it was a B&M vest restraint
The Italians are mad for this coaster.
Said by an Italian, it's true
However a british company added it...
@@rideexpedition B&M are swiss
Raptor, X Flight, and the Swarm are the only Wing coasters I have been on so far. And they rock!
Great coasters are even better with great scenery ! that one rocks !
Probably the coolest B&M wing rider!😐😐
SERVELIE463 Nope... but is realy cool
Feniel Lp Du hast recht hi :D
Marvin no swarm is better theming
Not anymore
this is the first wing coaster in the world,how could it be a copy??!
Consider Wild Eagle as the first wing coaster in the world that WASN'T a prototype. Raptor was simply a prototype.
Raptor is considered the first italian WingCoaster! Its a great ride :D
stampycatfan01 umb ass wild eagle is the first in America
Wasn't the swarm the first wing coaster to not be a prototype?
PossesedShadow the swarm and gatekeeper should be round the middle i suppose.
Ive been to garland 3 days ago. If you ever have a chance, visit it! Ive been on the raptor 4 times, its great.
Raptor is the best coaster in italy💪 seats are very comfortable and the theming is a masterpiece 😍
Favorite coaster ever the theming is a master peace
I do, yes.... so thank you! =)
That looks like it is hitting some pretty good speeds. I love the way you did the tri screens at the end. Another fantastic video Robb.
Very much appreciated~
Rob/Boston
I love how they incorporated set peace's into the ride! So much better then your standard steel coaster on boring concrete (Looking at YOU 6 Flags!)
Wow, B&M did GREAT on the Fly-Through an Wing Dip elements on all of their rides!
I hope the first S&S axis coaster takes note of this coaster’s use of terrain. This ride looks so much fun!
Thank you so much my friend. It has been a tough 48 plus hours seeing and hearing everyone talk about it. Such a shame and a senseless tragedy. Your note is very much appreciated~
Rob/Boston
Im going to be here in a week. Cant wait to ride Raptor!
The videos you've been posting daily this month are awesome! Thanks a ton for making April more exciting :D
Start of the ride I hear a guy say "we're all gonna die yay!"
i kinda heard it a bit echoy and hard to hear tho
They need to make a roller coaster like this at Busch Gardens Tampa Fl. I would SO ride it! :D
Raptor is one giant curve to the Left!!!! Amazing ride!
Thank you Robb for all the amazing videos!
This looks like an awesome ride!!!
I MADE IT YESTERDAY, I LIVE IN VERONA... I LOVE RAPTOR, IT'S MY FAVOURITE GARDALAND'S ATTRACTON...
Maybe i'm proudly italian and my judging is on the "we are better" side, but to me Raptor is a very funny ride. This is the first B&M ride in Gardaland, and first winged RC in Europe and you can sense the difference from Blue Tornado, a Vekoma inverted also in Gardaland, blue tornado breaks your neck to pieces!

Fantastic theming on this coaster!
Good ride! :)
Have you been on The Swarm at Thorpe Park yet Robb? It's similar to Raptor but a bit more taller and extreme.
Really like the layout and flow of this coaster. X-Flight's is pretty good also.
Awesome coaster and nice video
Oh yes...My fav Raptor ride...which i took fr 3 times!!! it was Amazing....!!
Gardaland Rocks!!!
wow, great scenery on this ride
I've never seen a safety harness like that before. That's pretty neat. I thought you were wearing a fancy vest Robb. lol
fatto in 3 fila adrenalina pura strabellissimo
THIS IS SOME AWESOME COASTER! Yeah, come in may and try out the Smiler at Alton towers! I totally agree. 15 inversions? Wow. Well I would say Raptor fits an alien theme.
does no one see the floaty thing at 25 seconds ?
+General Alfred Jodel no...it's Luke a weird oval orb
***** never mind...you sound like someone i would be friends with☺😀
I see it that's creepy💀
+General Alfred Jodel thx
+Angelys Novoa thk u
i already tryed it last yeard!!!! IT IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The swarm at Thorpe park seems more intense and the scenery looks so much better
Good point. The theming and story is very well done. Didn't think it was as fast as The Swarm but Raptor's ride experience is much better i.e more head and leg choppers and a better layout.
Wait but there is Swarm (winged coaster) in UK and there is also Furious Baco (winged coaster) in Spain! Both came out before Raptor I believe!
Raptor came before Swarm and Furious Baco is a different manufacturer.
The best theme park ever
I've been on that "UFO" ride twice now, as well as Raptor. The "UFO" is alright, pretty basic, its fun for kids. It's just an observation deck lol. Raptor is amazing. another great ride at Gardaland is Magic House. It's so mind boggling!
You guys plan to come to thorpe park? It would be awesome!
Sorta Strange that the small compact B and M wing coasters look like they would be the most fun. I mean, my gosh, looks like you get airtime on this!
Looks incredible. Great theming. Size and speed are not relevant to s great coaster. Nice 3-camera shot at the end!
love the triple pov
Well, I for one was thankful for the information having never seen one of these rides before. I guess it's a bit like you guys naming all your video's Roller Coaster, as if we hadn't worked that out yet.
I love the theme for this ride.
it looks quite intense!
This looks really fun
It is 😂
Great scenery and themeing
GJ advertising! Im pretty sure tpr know all about it and are going to ride it. They are the biggest roller coaster channel on you tube and the internet. Im pretty sure the know where Alton Towers is and what The Smiler is. Im looking forward to it to dude, I went to AT last week and the construction looked absolutely incredible!

How does this one compare to the other wing riders, in your opinion? This one, even with all the great head-choppers & theming, just seems... tame, for lack of better words. What are your thoughts?
This is pretty sweet now someone should pitch the idea of a stand up wing coaster if they dont already have one lol.
Best wishes for your city!
OMG look at 00:25 , an UFO !!
Aliens probably wants to build the same coaster in there own planet !!
Lol aliens
t00x11k its a ride on a nearby amusement park
Wrong, it's a tower to see the park
Lol
Dragon of the Skies Lol, it’s the same park
That is a spinning circular thing that gives you a tour of the park!
Will you be shooting The Swarm and posting it online.
Do you like this ride? I'm italian and I love your video! :)
Nice job on 300,000 Facebook likes and 400,000 subscribers!
looks awesome
omg this makes me think of Gatekeeper which I CAN'T WAIT TO RIDE!!
this coaster is reminds me of The Swarm at Thorpe park The cars are almost identical, it actually looks a lot better and more photogenic than The Swarm, The Swarm will always be my favourite though :D
Terrific split screen.
Kriegt man bei 1:39 Nicht Diese Metall Stange Gegen den Körper??
so how does the original b&m wingrider compare with the newer?
The best near misses on any coaster!
1:41 - This is a roller coaster head chopper? 0:21
yeah it is
Swarm is the first winged roller coaster according to Thorpe park
Amazing footage! Do you also edit your videos yourself? If so, great job...
In Cedar Point which is in Sandusky Ohio, there is a roller coaster called The Raptor or Raptor. I think that the ride at Cedar Point is way better than the one in this video.
Have you been on the one in the video?
+Dutchyy _ Are you stupid he was talking about Raptor at CP
Mas Dre (sorry for the late reply) No, I haven't been on the one in this video.
Dutchyy _
He isn't a CE he is GP. Like I said he said Raptor he likely meant raptor.
Dutchyy _
Oh right you general public (GP) not a Coaster Enthusiast (CE).
hey, may i just ask, when you went there? Also will you be uploading more vids of it?
Love your video's en the wieeuws :)
I like the left side the most!
wooden inverted launched stand up 4D freefly wing dive coaster?
that's a shame... but it still looks a great ride though! the swarm at thorpe park is 39m high, so i think their height restriction must be a bit less than that at gardaland... and anyway it was a prototype wing rider, so maybe wasn't ready to implement the drop that the new ones have.
Did you shoot that last year? On your Italian Trip?
The track looks like it's really large.
I love ur vids
To be honest, I don't see the point in the backward seats. The whole point of The Swarm was to see the close collisions but backwards you won't get the sense of colliding with them once they've passed.
I could be wrong, I will just have to see in May.
0:22 - 0:24 Robb films on links below ?
Looks fun
This is the only other wing coaster that I’ve seen that doesn’t have a wing over drop the other one being wild eagle at Dollywood
That is actually EXACTLY what that is! lol
LOL to everyone saying this is a copy of X-Flight. This was the world's first Wingrider bar Furius Baco which is a wing walker.
Very good 😃😊☺️
Can't argue with 1 I guess but as for 2....there is a slight difference. Which is this a, ya know...B&M which are known for their super smoothness. Opposed to Arrows which are torture devices. So I think the concern is a bit misplaced.
Come to Alton towers in England :)
I knew this was coming
Awesome
But the swarm is still a wing coaster and it is in Europe and furious baco is technically a winged coaster too even if it isn't by B&M
Coolest Theme
Seems like Dollywood's Flying Eagle without the nature setting!
If someone gets me from the states and brings me too Italy to ride this, i'll be sooo happy.
I'm Italian and I live near of this park and I went here like 10 times
MICHEAL!! ITS MICHEAL!!!! :D 5SOS, 5SOS, 5SOS!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!
Have you ever been on this?
