In today's video we review Cú Chulainn at Tayto Park outside of Dublin, Ireland - the longest, tallest and fastest roller coaster ever built in Ireland. The Gravity Group wooden coaster is unquestionably the best roller coaster Ireland has ever seen, but with Tayto Park building two new coasters in 2023, could it possibly be topped in the coming years? In this video we talk about the future of coasters at Tayto Park and Ireland as a whole, give our complete thoughts on The Cú Chulainn Coaster, and rank Tayto Park's signature attraction on the Park Pros coaster rating tier list.

This is one of the best and most underrated coasters in Europe for sure!
Haven't been anywhere else in Europe yet, but I totally think that's a fair statement!
Used to be the biggest wooden coaster in Europe
@@963852741aful it’s still the third biggest still I think
It still Is but it won’t be the biggest in Ireland next year
I had no idea that Tayto was in reference to potato chips 😂 great review, seriously underrated channel, and that doubledown at the end looks sick
Much appreciated, as always. Yeah that last double down is gnarly.
You should try some tayto crisps (or potato chips for you), they are really good
Hi airtime thrills (ik you posted this a year ago lol), I love your videos. If your ever in Europe then this soater is my personal favourite of 56 credits and I love having tayto as my home park. Also the tayto chips are kind of a regional dish in Ireland. Sorry ik this is sort of a pointless channel but its good to see people actually achnowlege Ireland for it's coasters
Thank you for this excellent review and history of Cu Chulainn. It is a coaster to be proud of and it will always be beloved, even with the new Vekomas coming soon. Rumor has it that they will be delayed until 2024 now but Cu Chulainn will keep me going back to Tayto once a month regardless. The Vekoma family coaster, Dino Dash, has been a good addition to the lineup for 2022, helping the park recover after Covid.
I live 5 minutes from Tayto Park. I love it, my kids live it. Ray and his team have built a great park.
Have a word with the shitebages blocking planning permission 😄
I've been on Cú Chulainn 9 times in my life, and I have no regrets, its certainley the best roller coaster I've ever been on, but still, I'm 12, so I will probably go on a lot more coasters in my life time, thanks for the rating aswell!!!
I‘ve ridden the two new Tripsdrill Coasters a few weeks ago. They are a perfect addition and the STC especially is one heck of a ride. It’s definitely the best Inverted Coaster i‘ve been on (ok, that’s not saying much). It’s glossy smooth not too intense, yet features nice geforces and awesome lap bars (imo even better than Mack‘s).
I think they will fit Tayto Park pretty well!
Glad to hear your positive thoughts on the new Tripsdrill vekomas. I agree, and I think Tayto Park knocked it out of the park with them.
I'm Irish and I'm glad you represented us!
I have never heard of this coaster before. It looks pretty cool!
It's a really solid Gravity Group!
It is amazing if you ever come to ireland definitely try it
I was there today, First time on the coaster in 5 years, I went on it 3 times and let me say this Get ON IT You wont regret it
I think I rode about 5 or 6 times on my trip last year and every one was extremely good!
Hey I am going soon is the line long?
@@carrotsorparots3892 Yes but it is worth the wait trust me
I was there today
I’m from Ireland it’s really cool to see you do a review of a coaster in Ireland!!
I love this ride so no problem! Trying to slowly expand the horizons of the channel 😀
Big Dipper at Barry's, Portrush is Ireland's only inverting roller coaster, but it will soon lose that title!
Went on this about 3 weeks ago. My birthday is coming up so I decided to go back to tayto park with 2 friends. I'm so exited, I absolutely love this park
I visited Tayto Park for the first time about a month after you did! I'm glad that I rode Cú Chulainn and Flight School because those are also my rarest coaster credits; however, I didn't get the best park experience during my visit. Cú Chulainn and Flight School only ran with one train which made it hard for me to get a front or back row ride, the park was crowded, I didn't go into the potato chip factory, and I only had 2 hours to ride everything! That being said, I think Tayto Park is one of the most photogenic parks I have ever been to, I loved Viking Voyage, their zoo was cool, and I have bragging rights that I have been there! In addition, the new coasters, re-riding Cú Chulainn, and visiting the potato factory gives me a really good reason why to go back! I wish I didn't have to go overseas to visit this park!
not sure what u expected with flight school the ride is about twenty seconds😂
I love all Gravity Group coasters, so I’d probably love this one. Rolly Coaster was underwhelmed by it, though, so I’m glad to hear a more positive take from you.
I thought it was great, no complaints on my end. So much good airtime.
I've heard just ones of this coaster. But a weekend to Dublin is forsure a good idea now!
i’m really glad that tayto park announced there’s two new coasters opening in 2023 and one of them is a boomerang and the other one goes upside down and i live in northern ireland so u can ride them and i did the wooden coaster and it’s so scary dudes
A terrific & fun rollercoaster. CC is worth any time spent going there! It rocks!!
I was on this coaster today, and legit I could not speak for one second.
It did leave me winded due to the safety thing that keeps you in the cart, though.
I'm going to Tayto Park in a few days, the Cú Chulainn is amazing, I would definitely recommend it.
TAYTO PARK: Let's put a massive roller coaster at our park!
GRAVITY GROUP: Sure! By the way, how easy is it to get to the park?
TAYTO PARK: What? What did you say? Well, I need to go. Bye!
Lmao it is kinda in the midle of nowhere
As one who has ridden Hals über Kopf I have to say it unexpectedly blew my expectations, it was way better than I thought it was gonna be.
It's currently my #2 coaster and I will definitely get a Tripsdrill season pass just to go there and marathon HüK, it's literally that good.
---potentially unwanted self-promotion---
I don't usually do this but I made a HüK review recently where I go into more detail, feel free to watch it.
Thanks for this review! I loved hearing about your experience on this unique coaster.
Thanks for checking it out!
I was at Tayto Park it's crazy 🤪
I was on the coaster to its great
ive been their and its amazing
Absolutely one of the Best woodies in Europe, Heck one of the best coasters in Europe in general. Every time I'm in Ireland I ride this multiple times. It is Great.
I WENT ON THIS ITS SOOO FUN (back seat is 100 times faster)
I’m hands down a Gravity Group fan girl lol 🙋🏻♀️amazing airtime!
Cool🥰
It's a great coaster. My favourite.
I was just there 2 weeks ago now. I live 5 minutes away from it so I’m pretty lucky
Mr Tayto is an absolute legend prove me wrong.
I’m starting a theme park channel so my question is can I use the same ranking system as you?
Yassss i love that roller coaster
The Gravity Group and Martin and Vleminckz (who I believe erected this coaster) make some of the best wood coasters ever. I feel we don't give them enough credit like we do with like GCI or RMC.
I think the way that The Gravity Group builds their rides is why they can be a bit shaky, but still very comfortable. I think with them, they build their rides more in the sense of a traditional wood coaster, and you can feel those imperfections, but master craftsmanship. Yes, there's GCI, but it seems their wood coasters, despite the structure still built like a traditional wood coaster, their rides seem to have more precision build into the track and offers a far smoother experience. I think for those who truly want to feel the experience of a true wood coaster, The Gravity Group fits that description, although GCI is also up there.
Fun fact: tayto park is only named such because of sponsorship reasons. A bit like how 'SoFi Stadium' is named after the sponsor 'SoFi ' or the 'Aviva Stadium', Irelands home rugby and football venue, is named after the insurance company Aviva. I heard that sponsorship agreement is ending soon. Will be sad.
I was just on this.
I can confirm the back is the place to be.
This looks so unreal
I went to tayto park during Easter and I was going on to the ride but last second I was like “I wanna get off” and now a regret it
As cool as the two new coasters will be, I hope the demand is there. Part of me thinks there is a reason Ireland went so long without a park, and now only has one... I hope the gp can support it long term! The two additions are great ones.
I hope so too. I think they should really push to try and pull in tourists from Dublin, which I think this new expansion could do. Tough sell being so far from the city though.
The demand is there , believe me. I live here and it's packed during the summer.
Look at Google reviews and you'd think it was Europa Park the way since reviewer's are rating it 😄
SPECULATION TIME! I know this sounds weird, but after these Vekoma coasters, what major ride/attraction will Tayto Park get next? I am thinking a Vekoma booster bike like Velocity at Flamingo Land if these are successful additions.
Mack spinner
No, it was flight school and dino dash
When I go there I’m going on the Cu Chulainn Coaster
It's a great woodie but definitely think the two proposed rides will dethrone the woodie but it'll always hold a special place in Ireland coaster history.
lol i was at the park yesterday and JESUS the lines were long. you had to wait 29 min to go on the ride. it was worth waiting that long lol
Really? I went on a Saturday and all the rides were walk on or below a 5m wait.
2:12 “ cook Collin “
Yes the best coster that I have gone on
Do you know where they take your picture? is it the first tunnel??
yes,it’s the first tunnel
I remember tayto park 😢
They added another coaster (Dino dash) so 4 coasters but it’s like flight school so it can’t compete with cú chulainn
Is there a new one being built in 2023?
Proud to be irish
I went on the biggest roller coaster in Ireland I wanted to go on again it's so good
I RODE IT TWICE WHEN UR FALLING DOWN IT FEELS LIKE YOUR HANGING ON FOR DEAR GOD AND THEY HAVE A WHOLE BOX OF BROKEN PHONES
Honestly i think if Emerald Park Keeps it going they could get a 200ft+ coaster by 2035
Omg when he said it was based on potato CHIPS I was like 😳 bruh it’s crisps not chips
Tayto invented the flavoured crisp, and are still the most popular brand in Ireland.
I rode this but i got middle row both times and didn't get the best airtime
Ireland needs more theme parks like 2/3 more. And 1 in north Ireland!
I agree! Although the country isn’t that big, they’d have to rely on a lot of tourism, which is probably why there aren’t more.
Park Pros Ireland does get a lot of tourism - the fifth highest per capita in Europe - but amusement parks aren’t in their culture. Also, in these small, long-settled countries like Ireland and Scotland, zoning and development laws are very strict so as to preserve the land and the culture.
But certainly Ireland and even more so Scotland have pathetically little for the coaster enthusiast. Both still mind-blowingly great countries to visit, though.
I would like to say now tayto park is called emerald park
Dino dash!!!!!
International enthusiast: goes to one overseas park. 😂😂
Literally the only overseas park I've been to 😂
@@ParkPros I know, I'm just messing with you. El fuego content, I appreciate it.
I think the new two are being cancelled because the're re-namming the park to Emrald Park. Turns out the tayto part was just a sponsorship.
Love Cu Chulainn (btw its pronounced kookoolane)
if u consider cu chulainn to have an inversion, then that means u also think mille has an inversion as mille's overbank is steeper than the one on cu chulainn, but they arent even inversions in the first place, also why did u go to Ireland, just wondering
Never thought about that with Millie. I was in Ireland traveling for a few weeks after my college graduation.
In order to be an inversion it has to bank 125 degrees.
@@ParkPros yeah Cu Chulainn's alleged "inversion" is just a typical overbanked turn but gravity group and Tayto Park call it an inversion strictly for marketing purposes only, and its cool that u got some not only elusive credits but a good one as well
Im Northern Irish and i want to go there but how can i
Me too
Just drive/take public transport to the Republic
I went on that I am still 7
I Wont Let It Be Dethroned 😪😡😪😡😪😡 I Love That Coaster
Im going to tayto park next week on Tuesday & I’m going on cú Chulainn first thing I’ve been on it before and it’s fast af and fun as well btw if you don’t know what af means it means as f**k
The lift looks taller then 105 feet
There is a *non permenet* unnamed *intense* coaster with 4 loops and has a nice hight but its not as high as the wooden coaster but Last seen *2015 day unknow month september county waterford*
kAkAlLiN
