- Is this the worlds greatest wooden roller coaster? Some would argue its the worlds greatest roller coaster, period! The Voyage packs in a bunch of fast paced airtime hills and banked turns during an absolutely insane ride experience, that is non stop till you hit the brakes!

I’m amazed at how well this thing maintains momentum throughout such a long track.
It’s elevation as voyage is pretty much on valleys and hills
The secret is the first part from the first drop and first few hills actually goes uphill, the twister section is kind of elevated way above station height, and the return run is all downhill. Literally perfect use of the terrain for a woodie.
@@lyingdogfacedponysoldier201 exactly!
It’s also because steel wheels on steel track strips are very low friction vs el Toro with polyurethane wheels bleeds speed way quicker but is “smoother”
I could see how smooth the ride is.
You can tell that Holiday World puts a lot of effort into maintaining this ride to be the best that it can be. I mean, they retrack a lot of the ride every year to ensure its smoothness, and also contracts The Gravity Group to redo entire sections and re-align the ledgers of the structure to keep it even more smoother. Holiday World must spend a lot of money to retrack and maintain The Voyage every year, but they do a fantastic job.
They also use a completely different type of wood then most parks, Ipe wood is denser and stronger then yellow pine. This makes the bending and installation more lengthy and costly but ensures a stronger more durable track in-between retracks.
@@billsskiefc Ah yes~~ much more expensive than southern yellow pine, but kudos to Holiday World for using ipe wood to ensure the durability
This literally put a smile on my face for the second half of the ride. . . "How is this thing still going!?" Looks so fun.
It certainly is a lot of fun.
Arguably the best woody in the world. This coaster has it all. Everything you want in a classic wooden coaster.
Wow! I've never been to Holiday World, but everyone says how awesome this coaster is. I've never seen a POV of this until now, and this thing just cooks!! Especially on the return back!! Holy sh!t, this coaster just flies!!!
Relentless until those final brakes. Even the mid course brake area and drop has venom
It really is just about perfect. Highly recommend making the trip because they have 3 great wooden coasters.
@@blakewoods9044 I heard a night ride on this the absolute best. But from what I'm told, it's best to go when they have HolliWood Nights 🌙 True?
@@detroitdiezel7856 yes, the best night ride is Voyage and Raven but before the sun goes down, the Legend has the best dusky ride. If you can’t make it to the nights event, you can get night rides the last couple weeks in October. They won’t be trimmless but still very worth it.
Holiday World Rules. Free parking, free unlimited soft drinks, free sunscreen, awesome water park, it's always super clean. Four of the best roller coasters ever made.
Honestly, Holiday World don’t miss. Their 4 main coasters are all fantastic rides. The Voyage being arguably the best wooden coaster ever.
The insane first half would easily be enough to make this a world class wooden coaster, but then there's this crazy second half, just in case you needed a "little" extra. Great ride!
Even as somebody who's ridden The Voyage about a dozen times, it's still tough to believe this thing is real.
The best wooden coaster on the planet
The beast at king's island
@@Danny-jb6pg great ride, but I’ll take this one
IT NEVER ENDS!!!!!
masterpiece of a woodie. I will probably never get to ride it, but this looks like a fantastic coaster
Man these povs have gotten 10x better
I rode this for the first time this year and it is my number 1 over rides like Lrod and Velocicoaster. It was running pretty rough this year but that didn’t take away the fun. This ride really is pure mastery.
Voyage is an absolutely incredible masterpiece
I would like to ride this one day. I have heard nothing but good things about this coaster and just by looking at the pov, I can tell this will probably be my favorite wooden roller coaster when I ride it.
The Voyage is the best wooden roller coaster ever and one of the best overall. It's my number 4. Also, the night ride on this, especially in the cool night air of October, can't be beat! For anyone who's never visited I highly encourage you to go asap.
My No. 1 Favortie Wooden Coaster this ride is mind blowing
Best POV I've ever seen of the best ride I've ever ridden!! #1/272 and it'll probably stay that way for a long, long time. I value genius engineering in my rankings.
Finally worked up the nerve to ride this yesterday. To anybody worried about riding I’m just gonna say get in line, and get on it. After that there’s no going back and you will enjoy it lol definitely intense but 100% fun as hell
Rode this for the first time last year, that thing hauls ass through its layout like it’s nobody’s business and it’s glorious
Not to be a hater, but I rode this about 6 years ago and I decided never again. Roughest woodie I've ever been on, and that includes the other woodies at HW. Punishing is the only adjective that adequately captures the experience. First coaster that ever hurt me to the point that I had to sit down and rest after the ride. Never in my life had I been on a coaster that I just wanted to stop until I rode this one. It is an insane ride and a long one for sure. Perhaps I'll give it another go one day in hopes that it's smoother.
The Raven is worse ......
It is much smoother now and generally my favorite coaster I have ever ridden
I LOVE HOLIDAY WORLD. Everything about it.
I know it’s been a long time since I’ve been there, but I don’t remember trim brakes before the triple drop. When I rode early, not long after it’s opening, if there were trims they were barely tapped. Flying like a bat out of hell on that back section and into the drop was awesome, especially in the dark!
Also there were 7 cars back then. I couldn't imagine how insane it was in the back row.
The triple down in the tunnel is amazing!!!
You could ride Kind Ka 4 times (25 sec from launch to brakes) in the time it takes for Voyage to leave the lift to final brakes (100 sec). Crazy.
Wow, this thing goes forever. I saw a trim brake before one of the tunnels that did slow the train down, but it still kept haulin'
i love this roller coaster sm, but the HEADACHE this gives me afterwards kills me
Still my favorite wood coaster of all time!
I will go ride this!
Top of my bucket list. Can't wait to get up to holiday world to ride
This roller coaster is so much fun
I doubt they will ever make a true blue woodie as good as this one. 😊
This is on my bucket list
getting a night ride on this is on my bucket list too
Me too, I might go this year
All I can say is.... WOW!!
Rode this one twice today - riding the back seat was way intense
Wow! This coaster sounds like a bumblebee!
Now that TT2 is most likely a failed experiment, the Voyage is back to my number 1!
Absolute beauty! Speedy and long!
Putting together my list of parks to go to after we move to the East Coast early next year (there's a good chance we end up living only an hour away from Carowinds) and I'll have to make sure to get to Holiday World at some point.
Is more amazing how the guy rides the whole ride does not make one noise
Wow!! That really was a voyage!!
Made a visit to Holiday World today from Cincinnati and I have to say, the coasters are just absolutely phenomenal, but Voyage was the only one where I went from "WHOA" to "WOO," the whole park surprised me at the quality of their coasters for a family park. They're excellent.
My all time favorite roller coaster.
Most accurate pov so far g3tting closer and closer to capturing the true essence of this monster
One of my bucket list coasters. Just looks awesome
I live in Portland, Oregon... Probably one of the furthest places away from Holiday World... You need to find a way to ride it
@@Mattsc1974 yeah, I'm in Scotland, UK so a little bit further but definitely needs to happen.
I really want to go back to holiday world
A str8 BEAST!!🔥🔥🔥🎢
really hoping to get to hollywood nights next year and ride this. Such an incredible looking ride.
I’ve been on this ride before I’ve been to holiday world loads of times I think this ride was my 4th roller coaster but my first one was thunderbird
This coaster is dope.
it’s crazy how much it hauls even after the trims
Dayem....I need to be on this ride!!!
Imagine if this was RMCed but the looks of it is a beast of a woodie
I have a fear of heights but I rode it and I had so much fun on it especially right after the drop on the hill you get crazy airtime
Im going this weekend to Holiday World. How scary is it? I love wooden rollar coasters but this looks insane lol
This is an awesome coaster. So many comment about how impressive the length is but what's actually impressive is what it does with that length. So many elements and never letting up (unlike another wooden coaster in the woods with impressive length butva lot of strait track). That's what good terrain usage will do. While I do wish they'd swap out the restraints (I understand buzbars probably wouldn't be safe but it definately should be possible to hybridify the trains-PTC chassis, Gravity Group lapbars) I won't complain about the restraints too much, doing that layout in a PTC train is the closest you can get in the real world to barreling down Glacier Gulch from The Polar Express (something I always fantacised about doing). Because it's such a great ride I bought the ornament (I display it year round on my witch alter) and a shirt that has a picture of the coaster on it.
This coaster is insane!
Best wooden coaster to me
Very cool.
This is insane!
I’ll be in the minority here, but I’m glad this thing still runs PTC’s. It adds an “old school out of control” feeling that GCI’s and newer GG’s lack. The PTC’s beat me up a bit and make me fight for laps. A 25+ lap day on this thing is a workout unlike anything else I’ve marathoned.
I have ridden over 500 coasters in my life and this has always been my number 1 since I have ridden it and call me OLD but I put NITRO at numb 2. I am not a fan of ejector AT ALL that's why I ABHOR RMC's but I love floater and quick transitions/speed.
It was thrilling when I went there!😂
Smooth. Nice!
Definitely looks insane
We went to holiday world in indiana we went on that ride and as soon as we got to the top I was already scared I don't like that it was going 180 mph
what the hell that looks amazing
Wow does this thing seem absolutely insane.
Bet the night time rides are awesome..
I would love for her to be re done by RMC she’s intense now she’s be so much more fun as a steelie
I gotta eventually get back down to HW and ride this again. It was incredible. Is it weird that I MUCH preferred it in the front over the back? That's usually not the case with me and wooden coasters.
I'd love to ride this omg
Me and my obsession will be reunited June 2
This thing is well over a mile long and still needed trims... (I'm sure they are also there as block zone splits too)
Masterpiece
Thank you for the video of my number one favorite wood coaster. I have not ridden The Voyage since its first few years when it ran the seven car PTC train and it did not have trim brakes. (They were just block brakes back then.) For those that also rode it back then, how have the changes affected the ride, if at all?
@Locoboy 5150 the changes are minimal. The extra car on the longer train did make for slightly more ridiculous ejector on the first drop but it's still outstanding with the shorter train. The trims do have a noticeable impact, about 3 seconds slower, but the profile is so brilliant you don't know you're missing the speed as you careen back downhill.
The changes were made to make the ride more durable (lighter train slightly slower) and they still have to spend a small fortune on maintenance. But as a fellow enthusiast I can 100% say Will Koch would do it and I'm so glad his family continue to.
And those trimless rides, while unicorns, are heavenly. They just can't run it like that all day, every day, so to get even one is a special treat. To get dozens...we just don't know how lucky we are.
@@ChrisStephenHP Thank you Chris! I was so afraid that the trim brakes might have killed the second half of the ride.
question: are overbanked turns on a wooden coaster like over 70-90° or is it only at the 100-120°
It's a top ten tier coaster.
Considering it nearly comes to a complete stop at the mid-course trim brakes, I'd like to know its top speed on the second half of the track.
I think I've read that the first half is a normal wooden coaster built on top of a big hill, and that midcourse brake is at ground level but _still on top of the hill_ which is why it it doesn't seem like you're high up but the track can do a triple-down in the tunnel and is still running constantly downhill in the back half to keep the speed going.
I really need to ride this trimless
Waited for an hour in a still for this ride last year just to figure out a deer was on the track and wouldn’t move
I'm shocked at how fast this ride goes
Has it gotten any rougher over the years at all?
Holiday World maintenance and upkeep is unmatched. When it does get rough, it won’t be the next year
Damm that looks fun
Bro those trim brakes did very little this thing just keeps going
The best Woody in the world
It’s like somebody turned down the friction settings in planet coaster
If you guys want to experience a triple down but cheaper? Come to Bay Beach Amusement Park in Green Bay, WI, for less than $1 you can ride our slide which has a triple down! Yes I'm also referencing the coaster idiots.
How fast is the ride I'm curious 🧐🤓🤔
67 mph
imagine someone builds a wooden coaster capable of going 100mph.
This must be the best wooden coaster in the world right?
Many do consider it so. Typically people have this or El Toro as their favorite
El toro
Wodin has entered the room
It’s up there in a lot of ppls rankings. It just depends on personal tastes. When it first opened and was glass smooth it was my #1, not anymore as it suffers from the same thing (imo) all steel structure woodies do: it doesn’t have as much give so the track because even more rough than a (complete) trad woodie.
Personally my favorites Phoenix, Lightning Racer, El Toro, Ravine Flyer 2
@@jarrodholbrook6176 ligtnining racer is so nistolgic for me lmao. I remeber lapping it 15 times one night
The Beast at Kings Island did this better
The Beast has two lift hills and hundreds of feet of straight track 💀 how is it better?
Mate, Kings Island is my home park and I have to say that Voyage puts it to shame.
yall got to get a ride on it this year its even more insane!!! i didnt know where i was after i got off of this thing in 2024 i thought i flew off the earth. i looked like joe biden trying to find his way off the stage.
The height of the first lift hill is actually 163 feet.
it looks like its going like 100 mph until the end
wow this seems quick ! el toro or this?
Yes.
Who else got into HWN?
I did!
@@ChasingThrills W
What is "HWN"?
@@detroitdiezel7856 Holliwood Nights
@@ChasingThrills what's that?
World's greatest woodie? You bet. World's greatest overall coaster? Fury 325 MIGHT have a claim in that.
Incroyable!
Huh?
I forgot how fast it was.
flying thru the woods in the second half😪
i wanna be on it right now!
Is this thing better than El Toro or The Beast tho?
El Toro- debatable. The Beast? Absolutely
@@CoasterStudios The Beast slaps, alright? It's my number 1 traditional woodie, with El Toro as my number 1 woodie overall
