I suspect the fact that Iron Shark is built on a pier would explain its shakiness compared to Tantrum which mounted to footers dug below the frost line.
Ah that would make sense.
A narrow footprint seems like it's a really major selling point for a compact coaster model--see how popular Premier Sky Rocket IIs have become. I always thought it was interesting that Gerstlauer sold some 320+ models before they sold the 320, which eliminates the last helix to become super narrow, but the 320 seems to be the popular variant of the smallest Eurofighter now.
Absolutely
That transition into the brake run on iron shark looks brutal, glad they fixed it for tantrum, also I agree about the s hill being underrated, it was probably my favorite moment on tantrum, either that for the snap or the inclined loop for the positives and how tight it felt
It is quite brutal in the front row, but no issue at all in the back row, at least on my day.
It's weird. The jank on Iron Shark causes it to still toss you from your seat.
@@CanobieCoaster lol that’s interesting
Fun fact! Iron Shark was featured in Beavis and Butthead Do The Universe as Galveston Pier itself was shown in the background of a scene.
I actually remember that. Lol
Huhuhuhuhuhu
Interesting! Never watched that show.
I Would have to say, I feel like Krater is the best of them. First the setting in the mountains is amazing, you feel like you are on top of the world, second Colombia is very warm and humid throughout the year and rains a lot, so I feel like it runs a lot faster compared to the other 2, and third, it does have a little bit of theming.
To be fair though, I have only ridden Krater, so I don't discredit any other judgements. :p
That setting does look good!
I recommend the back row as it shakes less violently. I live nearby and every time this ride has been a walk on for me.
Assuming you're talking about Iron Shark? I tried both rows and it didn't make a difference.
This ride model exists just to make everyone question what an inversion is
Not sure if that dive loop quite reaches 135 but I agree on everything else
It's tough to tell on them.
I Agree! The brake run on Iron Shark over the Galveston Bay is What's UP! Also love those shark trains! Iron Shark is also 11 yrs. old already because it was pretty smooth when it was NEW.
I love the location.
Nice review! Gerstlauer coasters are very fun and I always make sure to ride them as they’re super unique
They are very fun.
With Iron Shark in March 2021, the back row was perfectly smooth, but the front row was very rough in a couple valleys. Once I noticed that, I wanted the back row for every ride. That line did get quite long after a couple hours. Tantrum was quite smooth in both rows. I agree that anything that's over 135 degrees is an inversion. rcdb makes no sense in what they count and don't count.
I rode Iron Shark in both the front and back row a few months ago. Both felt similar to me.
Interesting how tantrum pops into the brakes, but iron shark cruises straight into them after the helix
It is a subtle change.
Like the rides. They look like fun.❤❤
Yes they are.
2:58 that’s not saying much is it?
Lol
Sadly
I would like to see a review you explain about the B&M invert Batman model and the clones at many Six Flags parks, the ride experience on each clone, your thoughts on each and what would you rate each
Their all the same exact layout, it wouldnt be that different of a rating for each. I dont think it would be enough of a difference to make a good video.
I may do a Batman the Ride review down the road.
going to ride my first euro fight tomorrow. it was going to be adrenaline peek at oaks park but it decided to be closed when I went a little over a week ago. hopefully Defiance will be open tomorrow, when I go to Glenwood Caverns lol. cant wait!
Enjoy! Was Adrenaline Peak closed for maintenance or weather?
@@CanobieCoaster we talked to the people at the ticket stand all all they could tell us was it’s broken lol. And we could not come back the next day because it was a Sunday and the park is only open on the weekends till June. And we could not wait until next weekend because I was leaving Portland that Thursday. It was annoying lol
I think Six Flags needs to give Gerstlauer a second chance since they've decided to do that with Skyline Attractions, even after their disastrous result with Harley Quinn: Crazy Coaster at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom. After all, a Euro Fighter would be a great addition for parks like Six Flags America, Six Flags St. Louis, and maybe even Six Flags Over Texas.
I think this goes back to the lawsuit more than the ride quality.
Would you like to ride again Iron Shark at Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier and Tantrum at Six Flags Darien Lake? What do you think about the two Eurofighter 380 coasters?
They're fun.
Ngl it seems like these drops are steeper than they are advertised. They look more reminiscent of Saw the ride's 100 degree drop rather than the 95 degree drops you see on rides like Dare Devil Dive or Mystery Mine
Whatever angle they are, they pack a punch.
What are the most notable differences between the 0 and the 6 from those coasters, typically, in terms of tolerance, enjoyment or pain? What would you think, Canobie Coaster?
A) 0 is dull. 6 is decent.
B) 0 is tame. 6 is decent.
C) 0 is painful. 6 is decent.
D) Both feel the same.
C
At Six Flags Darien Lake, to ride again Mind Eraser with the current trains since you last rode it decades ago, imagine riding again both Mind Eraser and Tantrum.
Canobie Coaster would say:
Tantrum is fun. Mind Eraser...
Is not.
Imagine riding tantrum at Six Flags Darien Lake and a Vekoma SLC with the oversized over the shoulder restraints, built and opened in 1997. What would you think about the two?
Like Tantrum and hate Mind Eraser.
I got 20 ish rides in about 2 hours on a random Saturday.
Which park?
Did they give you any issue with riding Iron Shark with your glasses? You didn’t mention anything, so I’m guessing not. The park as a whole was just being very strict about glasses when I went, so I was just curious.
I had a strap and was allowed to keep them on.
When do you plan on riding wildcats revenge?
After it opens
Probably July. Hershey is a weekend trip for me, so I don't need to plan that one too far in advance.
Typically, what are the most notable differences between the 0 and the 7.5 in terms of tolerance, enjoyment or pain? What would you think?
Canobie Coaster would say:
A) Both feel the same.
B) 0 is underwhelming. 7.5 is fun and good.
C) 0 is painful. 7.5 is fun and good.
Typically C
Imagine going to ride again those coasters:
Iron Shark at Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier
Boardwalk Bullet at Kemah Boardwalk
G'sengte Sau at Erlebnispark Tripsdrill
Apollo's Chariot at Busch Gardens Williamsburg
Troy at Toverland
Typhoon at Bobbejaanland
Crazy Mine at Hansa Park
Ricochet at Carowinds
Matterhorn Blitz at Europa Park
Apple Zapple at Kings Dominion
Coast Rider at Knott's Berry Farm
What would you think about them in ride experience?
I'd ride most of those. Coast Rider is awful though.
Is Hydrus in Seaside Heights the same coaster as this model? If so, it’s over in 30 seconds, but that first drop is insane.
Hydrus is the same model, but a different layout.
@@CanobieCoasterI thought so. Thanks man!!!
Rode Tanturm 6 times in a row without leaving my seat on a day where rain was forecast. My brain hurt after. Probably wasn’t worth it considering I didnt get to ride RoS or the retracked Predator due to said rain and thunder actually happening. Felt pretty dumb after that since I could’ve spent that time lapping RoS since I saw maybe 50 other people at the park that day :(
At least Tantrum is fun.
@@CanobieCoaster Definitely!
Imagine riding again two unique coasters that you would give: one a 0 out of 10 and the other a 7 out of 10, what are the differences between the 0 and the 7, usually, in terms of tolerance or pain?
0s are always unbearable. 7s are usually tolerable.
I'm sure you've done a review on it but I don't remember seeing It's do you have one on rock bottom plunge? It's the only euro flyer i've ever been on and I want to see how it stacks up
I have a really old one for that one.
@@CanobieCoaster I am gonna try to find it
Canobie Coaster, what would you rate the Gerstlauer Eurofighter 380 model? A 7 or a 7.5?
I have a review for it.
If I ask you: What would you rate the Gerstlauer Eurofighter 380 model?
Canobie Coaster would say: So what would I rate the Gerstlauer Eurofighter 380 model?
I would give this coaster...
A) a 6 out of 10.
B) a 6.5 out of 10.
C) a 7 out of 10.
D) a 7.5 out of 10.
E) an 8 out of 10.
F) an 8.5 out of 10.
This review answers that.
Smattering is not used in the English dialect enough and this video brought my attention to that.
Lol
What are the differences between the 7 and the 7.5? What do you think?
Good rides.
So what would you rate the Gerstlauer Eurofighter 380 model?
A) 6
B) 6.5
C) 7
D) 7.5
E) 8
F) 8.5
G) 9
H) 9.5
I) 10

Why does this review talk about both Iron Shark at Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier and Tantrum at Six Flags Darien Lake together? What do you think?
They're clones.
And imagine riding two invented coasters with unique layouts that you would give: one a 0 out of 10 and the other a 6 out of 10. What do you think? What are the differences between the 0 and the 6?
Abysmal to decent
At Six Flags Darien Lake, what do you think about Motocoaster and Tantrum?
Like both
Imagine riding two invented coasters that you would give: one a 0 out of 10 and the other a 7.5 out of 10. What are the differences between the 0 and the 7.5? What do you think?
Abysmal to good.
I wonder if Peter Cullen does the spiel @4:20?
I do not know.
This layout is soo confusing when it comes to counting the inversion(s) lol.
Yes it is.
Would you like to go again to ride tantrum?
Yes
Iron Shark, do do do do-do...
Lol
I hate hate hate the look of the Immelman/diveloop combo. It looks too drawn out.
It does have a bit of a lull in between.
Lol. Told you I was riding my first eurofighter today but defiance was closed the world really does not want me to ride a eurofighter
Oh no! Weather?
@@CanobieCoaster nope maintenance. Lol they are painting the inside of the station lol at least everything else is open or not open yet but will lol
Rye playland just retired super flight
W
Oh! The worst coaster on Earth bites the dust.
@@StamfordBridge not even close, but it’s bad for sure
@@WCfanboy Well, fwiw, I’ve been on over 800 coasters. I’ve been on more ramshackle coasters (like Blue Streak at Conneaut), and I’ve been on more painful coasters (like Mind Eraser at Darien Lake), and I’ve been on shakier coasters (like Condor at Walibi Holland or Mean Streak at its most jackhammery), but Super Flight was overall the roughest coaster I’ve experienced. It was like being put in a cage and having that cage tossed down a cliff.
@@StamfordBridge I’ve never ridden it, but I have ridden time warp, and that ride was bad, but condor was a whole new level of awful
That special dude would be so bad
Huh?
@@CanobieCoaster I mean the shpeal would be annoying auto correct
hellooo
Hi
Not only is the ride spiel annoying, it’s also incorrect. Orcas are totally the best predators in the ocean!
Fair!
