Tonnerre de Zeus, the original before the refurbishment made by Gravity Group was really nice. Yes it was rough but in a different way and with way more powerful airtimes. Gravity Group did a really bad job.
@@kricriweb according to most Zeus has way stronger airtime now, especially in the 2nd half, because the helix got removed, so it takes everything after that with more speed
I am absolutely here for any video that "The Gentleman August" appears in! That backwards ride is on my bucket list after Ride to Happiness. Thanks for an amazing time as always. ❤❤❤ from San Diego!
Very nice video! Thanks for the tips in your European Vlogs like about the 25 and under rental car thing. Very great park! Looking forward to the next park!
I think if you are going to have Matt in a video, you need to randomly throw a cup of water into his face. Like, he'll know it's coming at some point, but he won't know when. And then, when he drops his guard down, splash. You have to do this. You just do.
I definitely know what you mean about airtime focused rides being where backwards facing seats are at their best. The sensation you get is like an egg being flipped out of a pan. Zeus looks awesome.
That Music at the beginning brings back SOOOO many memories of watching your videos. Jincheng Zhang or whatever his name was that the song was from! Good ol' park operations videos!
Nice video ! The run of Sarah with Abraracourcix was so fun 😂. And just to explain: the Toutatis single rider line is very often closed because people enter in groups and refuse to be separated when boarding the train. So they assault the operators even though the single rider rules are posted... The Park therefore prefers to close it to avoid conflicts
Often, it's also closed only temporarly. They open it until the line become full with a 25-30 minutes wait, and then close it until it's almost empty again.
Thanks for bringing us along to live vicariously through you guys. There's probably a 0% chance of me leaving the country, so ill never experience these places in person.
Parc Astérix is my home park and i really do love it and its coaster collection (we hate goudurix), Oziris is definitly one of my favorite B&M invert and toutatis is for sure the best french coaster by far. About the toutatis single rider its sadly often closed, its kind of a shame but the fact that the filotomatix and the single rider are side by side and they dont check skip the line in the station but at the queue entrance so people often tried to go in single rider line to climb over the fence and go in filomotamix queue. About Tonerre 2 Zeus i dont understand, we french coaster fan hate it for most and find that its a poor gravity group retrack because of its roughness but its cool if you enjoyed it 👍Its strange cause sometimes i find that it rides pretty well but somedays its just an instrument of torture 😄I cant wait to see your discovery of the unique Parc Saint Paul this park is wo weird.
I don’t know how tall August is exactly, but I too am practically too tall for Goudurix, as the restraints don’t full wrap around my shoulders properly and I bang my knees into the side of the car. The perfect height for this ride is 180cm/ 5’11 ish, where you fit in the restrains perfectly and can’t get headbanging. My little brother was of that height when I rode this with him and he loved it.
Talking about monstrosities... I was at Cedar Point Saturday and Millennium Force's turnaround is directly over the petting zoo -- the constant train noise those poor camels and llamas have to endure during operations is not pleasant.
poor pantheon. people treat it like it’s a bad ride. it’s not bad at all, maybe not quite as good as the other new gen intamin blitz coasters but still and incredible ride.
Toutatis's Single is always closed because... French... Yea, rly ! They dont know HOW to use SingleRider line ! They go with a group and in the station "NO ! I want to be with my friend"
I just realized that you're supposed to pronounce the 2 in French. Tonnerre Deux Zeus. Because it's a play on its original name Tonnerre de Zeus. Clever.
We visited for the first time Saturday and they were SLAMMED. It’s probably personal preference but we found most of the theming pretty tacky and ugly, although Egypt was great. Oziris running 3 trains at perfect interval reminded me of Raptor in the late 90s early 00s. Toutatis was basically Pantheon 2.0 and our favorite of the trip. Loved Zeus backwards and even Goudarix was great. The park just doesn’t seem big enough to meet the public demand and we preferred the overall vibe at Walibi Holland better. Glad we bought our Filomatix in advance otherwise it would have been brutal!
I mean the park isn't going for a realistic style either way, its based on a series of comics and cartoons, so I think going in with that expectation is more right. Like its a cartoon themed park, you're gonna get theming that makes it look like you've stepped foot inside the cartoon its themed to. Also having been to Walibi Holland, I'd personally say I found that park to by far be the tackiest in Europe I've ever been to.
That’s why I said ‘personal preference’. We knew what we were getting going in as we had researched the park. I’m not complaining it just wasn’t my cup of tea.
First time I rented a car I was 26 and my wife who was 24 could not drive the car... She was kinda ticked off about it... But fast forward 22 years and we have a trip planned for Christmas and the #Eldest at 18 tells me, "Aww I can't drive the rental car..." Nope sorry kid, You did go through the Panama Canal for graduating High School though.....
Parc Astérix doesn’t get enough credit for how awesome it really is!
26:45 What a pleasant surprise 😍
Definitely ordering the “Filet O Matix” at McDonalds today
We can all agree that Parc Astérix has a strong 1 2 punch with Tonnere 2 Zeus and Toutatis
Not to mention Oziris as a great #3 as well!
I prefer Oziris and even Pegasé over a front facing Tonnere tbh, I’m one of the people that finds it too rough (although far from terrible)
Toutatis is my number 2 and Zeus is my number 11 and for context I’ve been on 53 coasters.
Tonnerre de Zeus, the original before the refurbishment made by Gravity Group was really nice. Yes it was rough but in a different way and with way more powerful airtimes. Gravity Group did a really bad job.

I really feel like Parc Asterix does not get talked about enough! It looks so fun! Love to go there some day!
I love everything about Yanneck accepting and embracing his thirst trap Gimmick, made me laugh out loud seein him shirtless in his first shot.
Sarah left with the chief of the village, and his wife was mad 😠 😂
That is actually really in character and true to the stories of Asterix 😂
His wife is ALWAYS mad and he is usually greeted with a rolling pin in her hand.
I am absolutely here for any video that "The Gentleman August" appears in! That backwards ride is on my bucket list after Ride to Happiness. Thanks for an amazing time as always. ❤❤❤ from San Diego!
Osiris is really the starting point of CDA stepping up and doing some really nice work at their parks.
"It doesn't feel like a mistake" biggest roast to Pantheon.
Top bucket list park in the world!
This series should be called hot guys in Europe with Sarah! 😂 Yannick shirtless! Thanks Taylor 😉 Sarah you are a lucky girl 😁
I rewatched, I'm not sorry
😎👍
And then August went shirtless like WTF. I would be hoeing like crazy on this trip!!
Awe so cute watching all you guys hang out again
Very nice video! Thanks for the tips in your European Vlogs like about the 25 and under rental car thing. Very great park! Looking forward to the next park!
Rode Toutatis a couple weeks back and was lucky enough to snag a front row... what an absolute monster that thing is...
We went in July and nobody was standing for the front Line😂 is was so good
One of my favourite parks!
Loved our first visit to Parc Asterix this year and it's hotels, and of course Toutatis
I think if you are going to have Matt in a video, you need to randomly throw a cup of water into his face. Like, he'll know it's coming at some point, but he won't know when. And then, when he drops his guard down, splash.
You have to do this. You just do.
I love this park, it looks so amazing.
The music at the start reminds me of your old ride operation videos
its the same song that would get used!
19:20 It sounds like the theme parks tycoon 2 screams lol
One of the most underrated parks in Europe
I definitely know what you mean about airtime focused rides being where backwards facing seats are at their best. The sensation you get is like an egg being flipped out of a pan. Zeus looks awesome.
26 has always been the magical age for rental cars! But sucks to have that misunderstanding. Looked like a great day though despite all the mishaps!
Watching these for matt
You should do a video where you guys compare all the new-gen Intamins (Toutatis, Pantheon, Gotham City Escape, Velocicoaster).
Toutatis has to be one of the BEST coasters in Europe
That Music at the beginning brings back SOOOO many memories of watching your videos. Jincheng Zhang or whatever his name was that the song was from! Good ol' park operations videos!
What a beautiful Intamin 💙TOUTATIS💙
Toutatis looks awesome! And awesome vlog as per usual, Taylor!
17:10 August dropped the best joke then dipped
This park is definitely a one I really want to get to!
🤤WE LOVE SHIRTLESS AUGUST 🤤
That was so hype, I just went to Parc Astérix and had the same experience…. My neck still feels gouderix😢😢
The ending of this video was like CoasterBeefcakes 😳
Loved this one. It's a good park
3:15 august flexing 🤣
oziris my beloved
I so hope that you did the flying carpet. That ride has no business being that intense😂 it was one of the best during my first visit
Nice video ! The run of Sarah with Abraracourcix was so fun 😂.

this is very unfortunate

@@MrGrinax Yes, it's one of the others reasons
21:45 can confirm, I got that, it glows in the dark.
Thanks for bringing us along to live vicariously through you guys. There's probably a 0% chance of me leaving the country, so ill never experience these places in person.
YAAAAY! 🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷
The captions say "Park A$$ Streaks" 🤣
Parc Astérix is my home park and i really do love it and its coaster collection (we hate goudurix), Oziris is definitly one of my favorite B&M invert and toutatis is for sure the best french coaster by far.

Switching my bucket list from America to Europe.
Pantheon -> Toutatis
Ravine Flyer 2 -> Tonnerre 2 Zeus
Montu -> Oziris
Arrow Loopers -> Goudorix

The perfect height for this ride is 180cm/ 5’11 ish, where you fit in the restrains perfectly and can’t get headbanging. My little brother was of that height when I rode this with him and he loved it.
I can’t even express how much I want a backwards seat on a raptor like RailBlazer 😔
Love this park better rides then Disney
ok shirtless August and Yannick lolll 👀
I'm a homewrecker 😂😂
Backwards seat on Lightning Rod LETS GO!!!!
?
"Omg i'm a home wrecker" 😂😂
Cool
You should rank every park you went to on this trip once the episodes have finished.
“OMG I’m a home wrecker” 🤫
Pantheon gets way too much hate. Pantheon is an incredible coaster
21:40 I translated it and is said "I shin the black" 😂
Can you give us an update as to how the complaint to Europcar went?
You guys should’ve tried to order a croissants again! 😂
we tried but the place was closed!!!
😂😂😂
¿How much cost to ride the backwarkd seat in Tonnerre 2 Zeus ?
Free
Free. Just ask the ride op and they will get you in the back row.
Are August and Janek a thing? I've always wondered hehe
Talking about monstrosities... I was at Cedar Point Saturday and Millennium Force's turnaround is directly over the petting zoo -- the constant train noise those poor camels and llamas have to endure during operations is not pleasant.
Going backwards gotta be scary because you can't see the elements that are coming up
10:37 better than Firechaser Express?
Have you looked for public transport to the park ?
Those comments about pantheon hurt lmao, rn it’s my #3 overall, and I can’t decide if it’s better or worse than velocicoaster
Look at these shirtless euro-bros flexing on everyone
hi coaster studios!
poor pantheon. people treat it like it’s a bad ride. it’s not bad at all, maybe not quite as good as the other new gen intamin blitz coasters but still and incredible ride.
Too bad you can't understand the stuff in Pegase's station, it's full of wordplays and anachronic references!
Waiting for B&M to put a backwards row on a dive coaster.
wild mouse coasters have a little over 1g of lats so 1.6 lats on goudurix is BAD
Toutatis's Single is always closed because... French... Yea, rly ! They dont know HOW to use SingleRider line ! They go with a group and in the station "NO ! I want to be with my friend"
they’re freaking morons.
I just realized that you're supposed to pronounce the 2 in French. Tonnerre Deux Zeus. Because it's a play on its original name Tonnerre de Zeus. Clever.
Stop hating on our gourdurix 😭😭😭😭 we love it so much

A guide to Europe; at rental car places they will always try to upcharge you for extra insurance or other lies
Not a European only phenomenon at all
Oh no the flights sound terrible!
Isn’t it Pronounced “Two Tuh Tees”? Not “Two Tah Tis”?
You should have tried to get a croissant
So you’re telling me Sarah is five years older than you
Wtf is this dude at the end? Get a Shirt on man, its really weird
