  • Busch Gardens just finished the track on Iron Gwazi. This is gonna be the first big record breaking roller coaster added to the park in years. My three trips to Busch Gardens have all been near the top of my best days in a theme park and I cant help but to think this new addition is gonna make Busch Gardens one of the best theme parks in the world. I really think Iron Gwazi will change Busch Gardens forever. Built by Rocky Mountain Construction it will be the tallest and steepest Hybrid roller coaster in the world. In this video I talk about the current state of the park and all the recent changes they have made preparing for the 2020 Iron Gwazi.

    Thank you for noticing something that I did. Gwazi sits smack-dab in the middle of the park, and will be front-and-center once you walk to the main plaza. As a Florida resident that calls this my home park, I am proud to say that I love every ride here. The Busch Gardens parks are masters of presentation, and every one of their coasters, even the clones, is almost as fun to watch as they are to ride. Each unique ride has at least one iconic moment that is guaranteed to catch your eye. For Cheetah Hunt, it's that figure eight. For Montu, it's that Immleman that goes near the pathway. Kumba, the interlocked corkscrews. Sheikra, the drop and splashdown. However, for Iron Gwazi? All of it. You can see it throughout the entire park, and that overbank over the station, the lift hill, and the "death roll," as they call it, under said lift hill, nobody will be able to resist just staring at it with their jaw agape. It is another reason to be proud of Busch Gardens Tampa.

      @@bechtoea Come to think of it, it was one of the few coasters there that you could say any part of it (excluding the lift hill) from the pathway. Makes sense to some extent why they built the park this way. The Beast was such a success that they attuned to that kind of ride, though with a few exceptions.

      I've been going to Busch Gardens regularly since 1978. It's been a great coaster since 1980, but now that Busch Gardens has a relationship with RMC, I would love to see Scorpion removed and replaced with an RMC Raptor. A Raptor would be an amazing addition to the Timbuktu section of the park and would probably still fit in the footprint of the antiquated Scorpion.

    One thing that has me curious about the future of BGT is during an interview with Midway Mayhem, the park president said Iron Gwazi sets the bar a little higher for the future. The way it was said sounded like they already have plans for something that could be coming more sooner than later (in a couple of years maybe). But what sets the bar higher than an RMC? Really makes me excited to see what's next. But for now, I'm beyond excited for Iron Gwazi.

      A giga is really the only thing missing from BGT at this point. Adding one, be it Intimin or B&M, would make it the best and most well-rounded park around. There's room for one around the edge of the park in the outskirts of the seregenti plains. I believe that, done right, it could be the ride to finally surpass Fury as best steel coaster and make BGT a worldwide destination

Every holiday to Florida I make sure to visit Busch Gardens. As soon as I spot Montu as we're pulling into the car park, I get that special excited feeling and can't wait to get through the gates once more. I have so many happy memories and I just can't wait to get back one day to ride Iron Gwazi. It looks a beast of a coaster and definitely an Ace 🎢 🇺🇸

      Let me bring you up to speed there... ;-) The "Silver Arrow", which could be considered the little brother to the Looping Star, was built 3 times. One is Scorpion, one is the one in Africa (from what I know it has become a permanent installation in Johannesburg), and the third one opened in a park in Crotia after a complete refurbishment in 2017.
      The good thing about Schwarzkopf is that he used mostly off the shelf parts for parts that may need replacement. So even today they are pretty easy on maintenance. Some owners have gone ahead and purchased new trains, as apparently the steel structure is extremely durable (more so than with let's say Arrow coasters of the same age). I have last ridden the original Looping Star (now Silver Bullet at Frontier City) in 2019, and even at 41 years old by that time, it was still great. Or, being from Germany, I have the big advantage of having the chance to Ride Alpina Bahn every once in a while. This ride has been travelling since 1983. Almost 40 years of constant relocation. And still a really great ride.
      I am sure Schwarzkopf coasters will still be around for a long time - even the really run down "Dreier Looping" was not scrapped after the accident in Mexico, but will reopen at Indiana Beach after a major overhaul and repair. (Can you tell how much I love those classics?)

    I love how thos video focuses on how BGT was prepping for years to get everything JUST RIGHT for this coaster and then you realize they chose "Iron Gwazi" as the name and themed it to a robotic crocodile. Like there was one dude who didnt get the memo and totally half assed his part.

    • @Okaycoasters
      @Okaycoasters  4 года назад +2

      Haha Thank you Airtime Thrills!!! I know alot of people have been very upset about the trains me personally I dont think they are too bad. Im really hoping certain angles are gonna look great in photos and videos. Like straight on.

    Thanks for showing my home park some love. I grew up visiting BGT (actually went to elementary school right across the street, believe it or not) and it ignited my love for theme parks and made me the enthusiast I am today (Scorpion and Kumba were my first coasters). Love to see other people finally recognizing how good it is

    Busch Gardens is the HOME of Roller coasters.. I'm proud to be just an hour away. Been watching Gwazi from the ground up, these videos are great.. but nothing can compare to how frightening and awe-inspiring Gwazi is. Cheetah Hunt and Montu are the best coasters I've ever been on except Hulk at Universal, but Gwazi will be the trifecta to Busch Gardens. I'm dying for them to drop the open date!!

    Awesome video! You captured the spirit of this park so perfectly! BGT is already my 3rd favorite park I've ever visited. Iron Gwazi could bump it up to # 2 ahead of Cedar Point, and perhaps even give Dollywood some competition for my top spot.

    • @Okaycoasters

    @okaycoasters great video of BG Tampa. As a Tampa resident I can’t be more happy that BG is in our backyard and I would rather go to it than any other park. Two quick facts the head BG engineer told my USF class 1. Falcon’s Fury was designed to be like parachuting. 2. Cheetah Hunt was started and designed as an idea to be like riding a Speeder from Star Wars Return of the Jedi. Marketing just rebranded it for obvious reasons.

    Sir...you offer the best videos on theme parks out there. HANDS DOWN! Not sure how many park execs have seen your vids but they need to. Your cinematography is killer and the scripts compliment the parks in a manner that just make you have to get out and see it for yourself. I've been going to BG my whole life and I have to go back just to see if I missed something. Kudos to you... Businesses should be lining at your door for your skills.
