Roar-O-Saurus Review, Story Land Gravity Group Wood Coaster | A Finale Like Steel Vengeance
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 ноя 2021
- Roar-O-Saurus is the signature attraction at Story Land. This small-scale Gravity Group wood coaster packs a serious punch. It's the strongest of the junior Gravity Groups. This ride may stand just 40 feet tall, but it has some powerful airtime and a finale as relentless as the one on Steel Vengeance!

I love Gravity Group's family coasters. They have really shown you can build a terrific coaster for all ages for less money and in less space. Their train cars are incredibly comfortable, and ride is smooth and thrilling. I don't understand why more parks don't use them.
I hope more get built.
@@CanobieCoaster I suppose that one way of helping this along is to request that your favorite park put a GG coaster in the next time they want to add a coaster. It's odd to me that parks spend so much money and space on the next steel super coaster, yet a GG wooden coaster is just as much of a park perk for much less cost and for much less land. I get that they want to pull in the thrill seekers and are in a battle for reviewing stars and marketing wows, but at some point, how many super coasters must you build?
I made the trek up to story land just for this coaster after watching your review here and I am happy to say it met my expectations :) I wasn't impressed with my first ride but after a few rides in the back car this thing is really special. That finale really is no joke!! I love how wild it is for the small height and speed.
Glad you liked it!
Story Land was my childhood theme park. The Hopkins Polar Coaster there was one of my very first roller coasters.
Same
Have you ridden roar o saurus?
It was one of my first coasters too.
@@chargedonpc9989 hadn’t been built yet when I went there
Iv ridden Kentucky Flier and I absolutely love these Gravity Group Family Coasters. They have so much airtime for everyone to enjoy. Not forceless but also not super intense but the perfect in between. It's crazy how a ride so small and compact can have this big of a punch. Let's also praise GG for the fact that they can do toght turns on a 6 foot radius and still keep the speed so well.
Edit: I didn't now it was actually really strong airtime, wow thats insane.
This one has considerably more power than Kentucky Flyer. The final hills are closer in strength to Lightning Run's finale.
I Love How Even An Empty Train Which Usually Runs Slower Than A Full One Still Roars Over Those Bunny Hills.
Great Video!
Why Do You Talk Like This 💀💀
@@japjup3382 Cuz I Can 😁
It runs well in all conditions.
An empty train just means all the riders were ejected.
@@StamfordBridge Lmao 🤣
Was not expecting much from this coaster. But MAN did it exceed my expectations.
It's incredible.
I actually found Roar-O-Saurus and Wooden Warrior to be close this year (though I did ride WW on a ripping hot day). The amount of airtime Gravity Group crams onto their family coasters is unreal. They seriously have more airtime than most adult coasters. Great fit for Story Land, and would love to see more of these coasters pop up.
Wooden Warrior is very good too. I think that ride sustains its airtime a little more, but Roar-O-Saurus has far more power.
This looks like an incredible coaster! The only coaster I can compare is Leviathan at Sea World Australia, which is like a larger scale version of this (without the mouth-watering finale). The funniest thing is, even though it is the size of a regular Gravity Group, they market it as a "family ride", whilst less thrilling rides such as Jet Rescue and Storm Coaster are classified as "thrill rides". As such, it tends to attract a younger demographic and lots of children. There is nothing family about these gravity groups, however. On my fourth ride, I was seated next to a dad of a younger child behind me. When the ride hit its final break run, the child was crying. His mum had to console him! I felt bad for him, but Gravity Group knows how to deceive the GP. They need to add more of these! They really are insane.
Roar-O-Saurus is far wilder than its size suggests. It does feel like a mini Leviathan in terms of pacing.
Great review, recently took my family to story land and my 5 year old and myself went on this thinking it was just a small coaster but I was impressed and this is definitely a high intensity coaster from start to finish
Nice!
The fact that they add crying children to a tally LMAO Great video as always!
It shocked me!
Lol the crying tally is savage!🤣
It's sort of out of character for this park.
That title instantly made me book A trip to new Hampshire
It's a great ride.
Awesome coaster!!
It really is!
im a somewhat young adult with no kids… but i sometimes go to story land just for the nostalgia
It's a nicely themed park.
Roar o Saurus is awesome! I am really happy I have gotten to ride it, and I hope I can ride it again. This coaster shocked me with it's relentlessness. I thought I was a wimp or something for thinking it was surprisingly intense because I had already ridden Apollo's Chariot and Rock 'n' Roller Coaster, but this one felt like it had more relentless pacing than those do. I think I would love it even more now. Story Land was the park that made me love theme parks when I was little, so it is cool that even now they have a reason for me to go beyond the theming and Dr. Geyser's raft ride.
This ride is wilder than the two you mentioned. It's not just you.
@@CanobieCoaster I agree. I think Rock 'n' Roller coaster's launch might be more intense than any singular moment on Roar o Saurus though. Roar o Saurus has far better pacing than Rock 'n' Roller coaster
For me the two standouts are this ride and Splash Battle: Pharaoh's Reign. Though the other stuff at Story Land makes it the perfect park to go to with younger kids, because it's all rides designed so you can enjoy them along with your child.
@@MattMcIrvin Story land is one of the best family parks IMO. I like the splash battle ride, but I think if there were people on their boat when I rode it I would like it better. I love Dr. Geyser's remarkable raft ride, I also have really good memories of the flume. The park has a really nice atmosphere
Timely review! I just rode Oscar's Wacky Taxi last week and loved it. I rode Wooden Warrior back in 2018 or 2019 (can't recall year off top of my head). I have yet to get to this or Kentucky Flyer, but from everything I hear, Roar-O-Saurus and Oscar's are the two best. I can't wait to experience this one.
This has the same pacing as Oscar's, but each hill is way more powerful.
@@CanobieCoaster sesame place will make a wonderful review, if you're up for it.
@@CanobieCoaster Wow. Can't wait to experience it.
@@racheljackson4428 I haven't had the best experiences at Sesame Place. I'm not rushing to do that review so I can focus on more positive ones.
Timber in Walibi RA is sooo great too ^^ relentless, packed with punch and airtimes :3
I still need to visit that park.
@@CanobieCoaster if i were u, i would wait at least 2024... something big is coming 😇
Gravity group perfected wooden roller coaster airtime
Yes
I want on this when I was like, 6. It was terrifying, and I loved it.
Nice!
When I rode Roar-O-Saurus, there was some kind of ACE event coincidentally going on so there were a lot of adult coaster fans in line... but I saw a lot of young kids come off of this thing smiling. Freaks in the making. My own kid won't ride it, I don't really blame her (she found the Yankee Cannonball to be too much, and if that's too much, this is much too much).
I haven't ridden any of the other Gravity Group family coasters, and my experience is otherwise limited (all the woodies I've ridden are either in New England or defunct), but this is definitely my second favorite wooden coaster after Boulder Dash.
I've been during Coasting for Kids and there were a ton of adults for that event too.
I rode this with my friends 14 times in a row. It was fun
Sure is!
I went to storyland this Monday and roar o saurus was closed. Bummer, though I did spend more time in the rest of the park which I appreciated. However, I have a cabin 5 minutes away, so today I revisited from 1-5 pm. I got 30 rides on roar o saurus, and will try to break the record of 52 later this summer
Was it closed for maintenance or staffing?
@@CanobieCoaster maintenance, but took longer than expected and was closed for the whole day
I love Roar O Sauras’s trains and theme.
Me too.
I've ridden the other 3 in the country, but not this one. I have those other 3 ranked ahead of some coasters up to 5 times their size. Now, I'm even more excited to ride this one at some point.
This one crushes the other small scale Gravity Groups.
considering which one came first... i guess you could say steel vengeance has a finale like roar-o-saurus 🔥
This type of ride would be great for idlewild
Sure would!
The trains look really cool
They are.
This ride is so nasty, I can't wait to go back.
It is way wilder than it should be for a park like this.
I can’t believe someone’s hair extension got ripped off
It really is that powerful.
Wow, I thought others were joking about this coaster 😳
It's legit.
Do you find this ride runs significantly different based on temperature? I rode it a little while ago for a half day from 1 to 5, and it seemed to speed up throughout the day, but it was still in the mid 50s so I don’t know if it was running to its max potential
I've only ridden it in summer. I have ridden Wooden Warrior in the heat and cold. That one ran similar in all temps.
all of the turns have gotten a bit rougher, especially the final one, and there’s a pothole between the 6th and 7th hill, but this has some insane airtime, i got a total of 15 rides in about four hours.
I love this ride.
Been wanting to ride this since it opened. This review hurts! 😂
It's amazing.
This would be perfect for Paultons Theme Park in the UK infact it screams the kind of ride they should get and there demographic.
It would work at a lot of family parks.
I actually went on this coaster crying, because of a panic attack, at the time the only other wooden coaster that I was on was tree topper at upper clements park which is now defunct, but it was so painful that i was scaed that I was gonna get hurt on this one too, but lets just say for the coasters ive ridden this is tied for first place
which I have a petition for my coasterless home park to get one of these and I am hoping they do
This one is very smooth despite its aggression.
@@CanobieCoaster I found the same thing after, I was speechless
5:30, uh that sounds like something I'd expect from the CRYSTAL BEACH CYCLONE, that's the type of PR I'd expect from that ride if it was still around somehow, not a ride like this.
It is surprising for a park like Story Land.
are you going to go to storyland’s passholder preview day this weekend?
I am not. I am not sure if I'll get to Story Land this year.
awesome! Which is better, oscar or this?
Easily this
will you do a full scale review on Story Land as a whole?
Yes, Monday.
They can use a second train!!
Absolutely.
Roar O Sauras looks better than any woodie in New England except Boulder Dash, and it looks like the fifth best coaster on the region. (Behind STR, WiCy, Phear, and Boulder Dash)
I take it ahead of Phobia easily.
I have a sentimental attachment to Untamed (Canobie) as one of the coasters that got me back into riding coasters, so I rated that above Roar-O-Saurus on the Coaster Bot poll, but I know this is not particularly objective.
I always ride roar o saurus close to the front. Is it better in the back?
Ever so slightly.
OMG can we please get this in Belgium? This would be perfect for Bobbejaanland, Bellewaerde or maybe for Walibi if they want to remove Loup Garou. This looks so good. This small coaster looks 1000 times better than Loup garou and would probably be the best woodie in the country.
I think Loup Garou would be better off with a proper RMC-treatment. Walibi showed how its done with Robin Hood / Untamed.
Absolutely agree with Bobbejaanland tho! That would be dope
This would work at a lot of parks.
Well, there is Wood Express at Parc Saint Paul, which is pretty close to Belgium!
@@xBierWiesel yeah that could also work as wel an RMC.
Storyland? Where?
Glen, NH
Wooden wild train
Yes
Jr. Toro
Both are powerful in their own way.
WHY NOT 10?
Doesn't have the speed and variety of the larger coasters out there.
Why do people like wooden roller coasters?
I like their classic nature and airtime based layouts.
Way too intense for me when I was 6
I can imagine a lot of kids feeling similarly.
Grvgrp is good ish...... but another steal vengeance shot out. Officially making it the most overrated ride EVER.
I love Steel Vengeance and don't think it's overrated.
