Para Skep Totally agree! People need to shut up because it’s a “Six Flags” coaster. It’s a good, cheap, reliable option for small parks! Awesome fit for the park! Would’ve preferred a Raptor but hey what you going to do...
Remember when they said masks were purely symbolic and regular people don't need them because they dont do anything? Yeah that was like Week 2 of covid
"Mom, can we go to Disney?" "We have Disney at home, honey" Disney at home: PS I've been binge-watching your vlogs since I can't get to any amusement parks now :( but thank you for taking us along with you! Also, Gerstrauler always seems to have great rides AND night rides.. They are definitely one of the best manufacturers
You should come back to Iowa to not only experience Adventureland with Dragon Slayer and all those minor additions but also LOST ISLAND once Matugani is open!
This is my home park. I live about 20 minutes from there. Monster is EPIC! The founders of Disney World helped design this park. And you can tell people don't usually film here in Des Moines by everyone giving you weird looks in the background. Lol
Here an awesome update on Adventureland. There adding 9 new rides for 2022 and removing 3 old ones. Heres the list. Removing Lady luck, the falling star and that golden plane ride. The new rides are as mentioned on there facebook page. Plus they have a video showing all the ride types and where in the park there going. mainly kids rides and one all ages ride. Heres the list. See what you think. 1. speedway racers, 2. circus balloons, 3. lighthouse, 4. leap frogs, 5. bernies swing, 6. the revolution (aka tug boat ride) 7. the clipper 8. the war hawks and 9 the rockin rainbow(aka swing ride that also tilts).
I lived in Iowa for a few years before moving to Ohio, this park was a big part of my childhood and I’m happy to see y’all having fun, sad to see dragon though but it’s also been over a decade lmao
Hagan Werner infinity coasters normally have lapbar trains right, but the iron shark is a lap bar euro fighter. And the smiler is a infinity with over the shoulder restraints. And I’d say Takabisha is more of an infinity type coaster but it’s a euro fighter. The system makes no sense to me ??
@@CoasterB I looked it up. Quoting Wikipedia " the Infinity Coaster allows for higher capacity through longer trains. The coaster also features a magnetic rollback system on rides with lifthills, to allow for easier evacuation of riders in breakdown situations. The ride car can now roll backwards with the magnetic fins deployed and the lift motor in reverse." I assume this makes them more expensive.
It has trains instead of the single cars found on eurofighters. Granted, they have the same capacity and seating arrangement and look very similar, but you’ll notice that the train articulates (has a hinge and bends) between the first and second rows
Agent Stache ah okay, so are the more recent euro fighters with lapbars only still a single car. And the lapbar infinity trains have articulation. Interesting, thanks for the info
Coaster Studios that’s cool! I’ve been wanting to do that with my friends, but all of them are afraid of roller coasters. I do have a suggestion. If you’re ever in New England again, come back to canobie lake park. I work there and we are nowhere near as busy as last year. The wooden coaster just got new trains too, so it flies through the layout giving you tons of air.
The ride constitutes as an Infinity Coaster because the lift hill has magnetic brake fins so it makes it easier for evacs. It also has different trains, and it has a higher capacity. Euro-Fighter trains look way different compared to Infinity trains.
Oh and Monster was the first Infinity 2 here in the States. And the Underground is more of a dark ride rather than a roller coaster. Yes, it is a roller coaster technically. But it's a dark ride. Also, the theme of this ride is not actually set to a coal mining, as most people believe. During the slavery era, Des Moines had a huge underground network to hide and free slaves. This is the point of Big Bob at the entrance. Underground, the ride, is themed to the underground tunnels that were once present here.
In the preshow, the animatronic refers to the underground as a coal mine, but never mentions slavery. And there’s mining equipment throughout the ride. That would be a very neat ride experience though if it were themed to the Underground Railroad though.
Nice to see more European coasters. It’s nice to see more from the euro coaster community especially with the current transatlantic travel restrictions. Keep Up The Great Work Taylor and Stay Safe
I came here the exact same day you were in 2016 at Adventureland, sadly you left the park early so I didn't get to meet you, and now I moved to Florida and what do I see, you rode Monster without me. #karma
inspegaget I’m not sure what part of the video you see that in, but I used to work at adventureland, and the ride operators can use the landline phones at each ride to request soda cups filled with ice water from the supervisors. Dehydration is far more dangerous than holding a drink over waterproof control panels.
So happy to be out of the house. PhotoBomb on jump street 😁 cool mah & paw park. Each town should have one. You can't make this .ish up Shaken Bacon Russian ride operator... I got her numba i got her numba 😂

@@michaelshields7777 do you even know what a Karen is? Idiot😂 A Karen is someone who whines about wearing a mask, and thinks everything is some grand conspiracy(like you).

Covid cost me a trip here this year but at least I know its worth the trip
Hope you can travel soon again 😊 i really like your Videos 😊
F
Airtime thrills same but right now I would be marathoning maverick and steel vengeance. Also great vids
in my opinion, an S&S 4D Free Spin will be an amazing fit for the park and the first non-DC themed Free Spin in the area.
Para Skep Totally agree! People need to shut up because it’s a “Six Flags” coaster. It’s a good, cheap, reliable option for small parks! Awesome fit for the park! Would’ve preferred a Raptor but hey what you going to do...

Masks are what your worried about? "Thanks for wearing your yellow star on your jacket Jew" That's what I heard
Adventureland looks like a neat regional park worth checking out 👍
I’m glad you guys enjoyed Adventureland. It really is a nice park and I’m lucky to live 15 minutes away.

Gerstlaur does make fantastic Infinity coasters.
And spinning coasters
And eurofighters

Have you ridden Saw at Thorpe Park and/or The Smiler at Alton Towers? I'll await your reply.

video bomb !
Where?
I went there last year and loved it. Monster was incredible, the atmosphere is great, and Phoenix was my 40th roller coaster credit.
Monster is one of my personal favorite coasters personally. It is in my top 5 and it is just such a fun coaster to laugh on.
The Finnish Loop On Monster Gives Amazing Hangtime.
Here fishy fishy fishyyyysssssss
Glad you enjoyed! :)
Petition to rename the gerstlauer infinity model to the EPIC gerstlauer model
Hey it's Brett! Glad to see some vlogs this Summer Taylor! Keep em coming.
Disneyland is Disney West, Disney World is Disney East, and Adventureland is Disney Central.
I need to add this park into a future road trip. Thanks for the video!
Thankfully the Underground’s undergoing a major overhaul, with new trains and hopefully a whole new miner animatronic!
You should come back to Iowa to not only experience Adventureland with Dragon Slayer and all those minor additions but also LOST ISLAND once Matugani is open!
I hope that more parks get a Gerstlauer Infinity coaster because they look pretty good.
Ay Taylor bro imagine if u had like an rmc in your backyard. Also nice video
Rumor is that fred grubb is building a raptor in his backyard.
It’s funny that these videos you are doing give me Theme Park Review vibes

The best Hopkins! Desert Storm! (All we got lol)
It was my first with more than 1 inversion, and it has a little intensity too

I havent been on the coaster at all and i was about 7 when it came out now im 13 and plan on going on it this year can you tell me what to expect?👀
OMG I WAS ON MONSTER IN FRONT SEAT AND YOU RECORDED ME XD
Someone tell me. What actually defines an infinity from a euro fighter? Like normally I know but Monster legit looks like a euro fighter
I think it's the trains. Also, Infinity coasters don't have to have a vertical lift hill or inversions.
Hagan Werner infinity coasters normally have lapbar trains right, but the iron shark is a lap bar euro fighter. And the smiler is a infinity with over the shoulder restraints. And I’d say Takabisha is more of an infinity type coaster but it’s a euro fighter. The system makes no sense to me ??

Taylor: Monster was pretty cool, but what about these fishy fishy fish.
Can someone clarify what makes monster A gertslauer infinity and not a eurofighter
Will you be going to coaster and craft brews at bgw?
EPIC coaster = EPIC video. But all your videos are great anyway.
Wait, Disney added a Infinity Coaster? They are going to crazy attractions
Glad to see you're wearing masks, considering I didn't see much others wearing them.
Welcome to Iowa...
Yeah, I was a bit amazed at the amount of people just out for a mask less frolic. 🙄😳
When I went there a few weeks ago I’d say 95% of people there and employees weren’t.
BarelyACanuck They look so dumb wearing those stupid masks for a fake virus, lol!!
@@michaelshields7777 do you realize how impossible it would be fake a global pandemic?
Did you feel like a monster when you got off?
Going tommorow, will be my 7th ride on it.
Monster looks like cannibal is it maybe future video of comparing the two
Wait, what's the difference between a Gerstlauer Euro-Fighter, and a Gerstlauer Infinity Coaster?
Is Monster better than Hangtime?
Btw the new S&S 4d free spin is very fun I’ve been on it it’s worth a trip here to go on it
What does one have to do to get to travel with Taylor on a coaster tour?
I travel with close friends of mine!
Coaster Studios that’s cool! I’ve been wanting to do that with my friends, but all of them are afraid of roller coasters. I do have a suggestion. If you’re ever in New England again, come back to canobie lake park. I work there and we are nowhere near as busy as last year.

Reminds me of Busch Gardens Williamsburg Virginia
why does monster look like a eurofighter?
What was that animatronic thing with the lamp? Dang scary!
Is a two row train still considered an Infinity coaster? Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought they were referred to as Euro-Fighters
I don’t think so
Edit: Two row coasters are considered Eurofighters, so Monster is a eurofighter
The ride constitutes as an Infinity Coaster because the lift hill has magnetic brake fins so it makes it easier for evacs. It also has different trains, and it has a higher capacity. Euro-Fighter trains look way different compared to Infinity trains.
Can you please bring back coaster fights (idea, twisted timbers vs storm chaser
It’s a Gerstlauer so of course it’s good. That park looks nice
I’ve never been but it looks awesome.
0:45 The Sky Ride has since been permanently shut down and taken out of the park.
I marathoned this last time I was there, rode it 14 times in a row
Thank you so much for wearing a mask Taylor 🙏. I can’t understand why people don’t wear them even though they aren’t required! Great job!
I agree!
They don’t wear one cause they don’t work lll
Saying a mask prevents coronavirus is as stupid as saying a chain link fence prevents mosquitoes... You are so dumb!
@@johnbrowning3764 they aren't to protect you they are to protect others and if everyone wears one we will all be safe.
John Thomas they don’t protect anyone if you don’t show symptoms lll
According to Wikipedia, the Disney company helped with some early planning of the park, so it’s funny you guys say it’s disney-esque!
9:15 they're playing TRAIN!!!

The sky ride I believe hasn’t been open for years. I go there a lot, and the sky rude and raging river do not open.

any dark rides there ?
Asides from the Underground, no
Is Monster better than Karacho?
Is it smoother than Karacho?
I miss when that giant pig food place was pink.
So is this thing better than Karacho?
Cant compare monster with a launch coaster since they're so different. I wonder if monster is smoother than karacho tho.
Certainly lives up to it's name
It's nuts to me that you haven't experienced Shivering Timbers
you know when a park doesn't care about safety when the ride operator have a soda in his hand....
