Anyone who has rode this can agree the air time is absolutely brutal.
I've ridden Shambhala several times, and "brutal" is definitly not the term I would use to characterize its airtimes. I think more accurates words would be something like "never-ending", "atmospheric", "ethereal", "majestic"...
@@darrenmcguigan Well I didn't know Shakespeare was fond of rollercoasters X) It's quite a vigourous hobby for a 400 years old writer !
that one little ejector hill was so amazing because i werent expecting it
Coaster Crafter or amazing.
yea like you're superman
You feel like you're going to die when your at the top, at the end you feel like a legend.
This is by far the best ride I have ever been on in my life. Couldn't get enough of it. Honestly for anyone who thinks this ride looks dull you must try it first. Definitely in a league of its own!!!
those seats gave me anxiety
Yasss the non existent hand bars.
and the fact if you're not over 6 foot your feet will just dangle lol
Even tho they look small, they are actually pretty big and you feel comfortable and safe when riding it (=
Gave a few smaller coasters a go to build up to Shambhala, nothing could prepare me for what was about to happen, WOW ! that 1st drop and even the 2nd were incredible, at 52 yrs old im now trying things i would have never done when i was younger - indestructable and loving it - wooohooo !!!
I remember going on this one and sitting at the front I would say that this one is one of the best rides I have ever been on
I went on this and it's so fun!!
Laura Bollin nice , while I was dying
Engineer who helpen constructing that coaster: "I always wanted to work on space stations. And now i did it!"
My wife and I both went on this ride during the summer of 2014 and we're in our 40s,it was the most fantastic time of our holiday.we were on all the park rides like a couple of kids,it was an awesome holiday,so good we've booked again this year.
This looks amazingly smooth!
im 11 and ive never been on a rollercoster but im going to portaventura this summer
should i go on the shambhala?
Yes
Well ive never been there but im 11 and went on the smiler 4 times and nemises 2 times in alton towers then all the rest once because the lines were huge
I was 7 when I went on my first one
of course you idiot
I hope you had a good time, and that you enjoyed this Coaster.
WOW !!!!!! IM FROM THE STATES AND SINCE I WILL NEVER HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO GO TO SPAIN THANKS FOR POSTING NEWSPARCS
Port Aventura is an amazing theme park. Been there quite a few times.
The back is actually the best place to sit when riding a roller coaster because all the weight from the other carts gives you an extra pull when going down the steep slopes. If you've never sat on the back before, try it just once! Trust me! There is a big difference from siting in the front!
I personally prefer the front. In the back, i hate the feel of being pulled down the drop instead of just letting gravity take you down. But everyone has their own opinions.
I like sitting in the middle lol
I like the front, because then I feel like I'm 'driving' the roller coaster.

I've been on this ride not so long ago&before went on this ride a was terrified of rollar coasters but since I tried that out I love them now!
this was the first roller coaster i ever went on! i was eight years old at the time and it had just opened. nostalgia...
One of the best rides I’ve been on!
MAN . I HAVEN'T SCREAMED LIKE THAT IN YEARS .
This is the best coaster i've been on in my life! :D
This must be INSANE! From what it looks like to me this thing is an air time machine. You can see how they are being pushed upwards very early on on the ascent over the AT hill. B&M has such different AT hills compared to Intamin or such. It also looks like that you rarely see the track in front of you when coasting those hills.... very cool! Bucket list material!
It really is, especially with them lap restraints
awesome the coaster is completely open so all the open space to fly around
It's not a station, it's a "mid-course brake run/trim brake"; they are meant to adjust the speed of the train
Oh my god... So excited! Leaving for Spain tomorrow, and I'm going to Port Aventura :D
I was there about 5 weeks ago on holiday and it is a trip i will never forget i love this ride
been on this rollercoaster last summer holiday. freakin awesome! it's so much better to enter this rollercoaster during late evening because of the excitement, but the waiting queue is also much longer in the evenings and that really sucks! we had to wait 50 minutes. during midday the waiting time is about 20 minutes
THat looks amazingly smooth. Their hands are hardly moving at all.
it is a real coaster for sure.. i'm working at that park right now for the christmas season and i went on that coaster 2 days ago.. maybe this is a green screen version but it's exactly how the coaster is
This coaster is just epic!
Really love this ride. So smooth and lots of air time.
I have ride this roller coaster on my birthday, and it was the most scariest ride I have ever been in my life.
this looks ace been on dragon khan years ago and yes it is salou the water parks tarragona way.
Port aventura is in Tarragona, Spain. near Barcelona.
It's in the Chinese THEMED part of the THEME park and Port Aventura is situated in SPAIN.
Was at Shambhala 2 months ago, and it was crazy and unforgettable !!
I am going now in 3 weeks. The only thing which I am concerned is because the seats does not have the chest support. Only the handles where you can make force. I am afraid i will go down in the fall haha!
love the restraints on B&M hypercoasters. So comfortable and non-restrictive
1:06 is an amazing veiw of one of the most beautiful elements i have ever seen on a coaster.
il est trop bien
j'adore le SHAMBALA
LOL. I was thinking just like that 3 weeks ago when I went to Kings Island. Me and my Dad got on every roller coaster. It was so fun. ;)
I went on this ride during summer break it’s honestly so fun
As I said, it depends on how many people is in the park. Last Saturday I waited for 1h. and later that day the waiting lasted up to 3h. If you go Mon to Fri, waiting time is shorter.
Wow this bad boy is fast. The thing is that it's not the fast(est) coaster there is, but there's long sections of shorter hills/flat track that make you really feel the speed
Ive been on Shambhala, my first rollercoaster was the Dragon Kahn, it was amazing.. seriously the Dragon Kahn is more scary because after the big drop on the Shambhala is passed its fine!
It's in the Chinese-themed section of the park. It's still located in Europe.
looks pretty awesome, glad to see Europe getting better coasters. :D
THAT LOOKED FUN AS BALLS!!!
this is MUCH taller than the rollercoaster in blackpool and it is actually a fact that this is the tallest one in europe. yes the rollercoaster in blackpool seems like it is quite high but if you look at how steep it is compared to shambhala it really pales in significance. when you are on this rollercoaster you realise just how massive it is, and when you come hurtling down after that steep incline you can't even see the track it is so steep and literally takes your breath away, which is why you can't hear anyone screaming. i did this ride all by myself last week (as in my partner was too big to get on the ride after we had queued for nearly 3 hours... there were of course other people on the rollercoaster with me) and i was TERRIFIED! But so glad i did it and would really recommend it to anyone who loves these kinds of thrills :-D
Been on both many times. Ok it does say that Shambhala is the tallest in Europe end the stats back this up but I have always said that the Big One looks and feels taller for some reason. I don't know why this is. Is it because the Shambhala lift goes up steeper and faster to the first drop , whereas the Big One seems to take forever , and then the view you get of the Flyde coast? Just seems higher to me...... but again I know it's not! lol!
wow they are doing it in Europe too, nice.
Second BIG coaster in Europe!
Tarragona city it's near (15-20km) but the city where the park is located is named Salou =)
I went to port aventura with school! It looks alot taller in person! Unfortunately it was closed for maintenance!
I love it I would go back there
Es la mejor atracción que he probado nunca!!!
this ride is amzing
been on it and its not even scar
I went Spain with the school on Sunday and went to this theme park and went on this ride, while I was on this ride my friend I front
It's in Salou, Spain.
I Love Port Aventura!!!
why not? i went to Furious Baco tons of times and it's so cool
Jada, yes it is in Europe
I'm going tommorow can't wait
One of my favourite rides
I've been on that and it broke down at the top... But still went on it again its amazing!!!
What a Ride Spain! here I come......YO!!!!
I went on this so many times when I went it was the first ride i went on there and the last during that holiday but not last ever hopefully as i wish to go back there.
not everyone but im sure a lot lol i love coasters as well. they are awesome x)
Best B&M hyper coaster
Such an incredible ride, would go back just for this, and maybe dragons khan
Barcelona salon Sambala. Biggest European roller coaster second biggest in port adventure is dragonkhan
Best rollercoaster i went in so far :D
At 0:55 I would be like why the fuck am I doing this to my self
kerolous adeib I would go on it
It's so swoopy! That must feel amazing...
The guy on the right side of the pov is just like "yay, its a new coaster... doesn't make my stomach go though", a familiar feeling I must admit.
Nicely done video. So clear, and the front view,you feel like your on the Coaster.
I have been on this. I loved it
Awesome coaster!
In the same theme park is the 1st tallest
omg i remember this went two times... wanna again just need to remove that people line :DDDDD
I'm hopefully going there for a trip
Looks so fun
yo me he montado ! Os lo recomiendo a todo el mundo!! Al principio cuando esta en la fila da cosa pero despues quieres montarte un millon de veces!
No, its in Tarragona, Spain
No it isnt. Fuerteventura is an island, PortAventura is a theme park in Spain.
No need to feel bad, we might not have the tallest or fastest coasters, but we have quality rides. We have the best steel coaster in the world, Expedition GeForce, the best inverted coaster in the world, Nemesis, and argubly the best wooden coaster in the world, Balder, and a lot more fantastic coasters. No need to feel bad, we're absolutely finee :) thanks
Been there done that, it was awesome and has a great view for a bit lol
This reminds me a lot of Nitro at Six Flags Great Adventure (New Jersey USA), except with less gratuitous high-G-turns.
I bloody loved Nitro, so I should really plan a trip to Spain!
Now that looks like fun!
Estaba montado cristiam corom!
Ok, gracias! :)
love portaventura! need to go back there! :)
that is taller than the space shot in iowa! iwent and is is HIGH!
The ride is amazing.
Yo me he subido y recuerdo que la primera bajada es una pasada!
They should call this rollercoaster "Savage Seagull" cuz it flies through the air! XD
That is the best fun park in europe, and it's located in Barcelona (Spain)
-_-
For such a huge ride I loved that fast climb at the start. Very nice pace. I hate those slow poke climbs
Love Dragon Khan - haven't been on this yet. Looks really great - very steep.
It's a good long ride. I don't think we have ANYTHING over 30 seconds in the UK.
love the cute dudes riding the coaster. especially the one whose feet don't touch the bottom of the car.
Побывал на куче аттракционов по несколько раз без очереди. Express браслет рулит =)
Es la mejor momtaña rusa de port aventura yo ayer me subi 3 veces, depende de el dia si es entre semana no habra tanta cole, en camvio, si es sabado l domingo habra mas cola yo la max. que espere fue 30 min porq entre el 3r en el parque i eso me llevo hasta shambhala temprano
I never put my hands up. I usually have a death grip on the handle bar. LOL!
Especially on coasters like this with very open seating.
Their version of THE INTIMIDATOR at Carowinds NC/SC.
