  • First time riding an alpine coaster and after many surprises leading up to the actual ride....I was extremely thrilled. The video doesn't give the speed of the coaster justice....it was much faster than the video indicates.

    Thanks for taking me along! I'm disabled and can never ride a coaster again. I enjoyed the vicarious experience!

      Another great pov is this place called enchanted forest in Salem Oregon. There is a very odd roller coaster like no other on earth with an interesting back story. If you’re into this stuff that one always make me feel good 😊

    Glad to see the enjoyment, I was lucky enough to be on the crew that built and tested it, when we set it up test runs brake test was lots of fun, auto brakes, spacing, and that was really fast! the year we opened you would find a video on my FB timeline doe with a go-pro and not using brakes!

    Thanks so much! My late husband and I lived in N.Ca until 2006 when we moved to Montana and we went to Tahoe frequently. But this ride had not yet opened or we would have been frequent fliers, so to speak. Thanks for the ride and the memories; I have been worried about that area because of the fires.

    They already have ski lifts and a gondola to the top of the mountain and make a much longer coaster run without needing an immense lift hill. Check out the alpine coasters in Austria!

  • @trevorjensen2706
    @trevorjensen2706 2 роки тому +5

    Is it worth the $85/ride in your estimation (not including the cost to ride the gondola to get up)? The view is beautiful, and you have a great video, but I was a bit shocked at how much they charge for ONE ride. That price is what one would expect to get into a Disneyland Park (lol).
