Taiga Review Linnanmäki AMAZING Intamin Multi Launch Terrain Coaster in Finland
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 бер 2023
- One of the worlds best roller coasters resides all the way up in Helsinki, Finland at Linnanmäki! Taiga is an Intamin multi-launch coaster featuring several inversions as it covers the parks hillside. It's a brilliant ride that is a must do for coaster enthusiasts!

Something to note: Taiga replaced a water ride called Vonktaputpous, which was one of only two liquid coasters made by Premier Rides (the other being Buzzsaw Falls (now Powder Keg) at Silver Dollar City). The liquid coaster was notoriously problematic because it used infrared sensors instead of normal sensors for a water ride.
If i recall correctly, Vonkaputous was at the time it opened the most expensive coaster in the park. An absolute ripoff considering it was horribly unreliable, expensive to run, and with the cold Finnish climate there weren't many days people wanted to get soaked anyways. The layout was very bad too and only relied on the novelty of the splashdown.
It did have a pretty iconic anti rollback clonk when it entered the lifthill though.
What symbolised Vonkaputous on top of all the issues it had was its location. The ride was located in the farthest corner of the park, and the area became a bit of a dead spot as Vonkaputous' popularity waned dramatically in its last few years. This, I suspect, was largely due to the fact that the ride experience was incredibly dull; the roller coaster elements weren't thrilling whatsoever, and the park's rapids ride Hurjakuru did the soaks better.
The poor ride experience coupled with the technical difficulties made Vonkaputous unappealing to most guests. While Vonkaputous must have had its fans (as all bad rides do), you'd be hard pressed to find even a considerable minority who lamented Vonkaputous' exit at Taiga's expense. Simply put, the park is objectively far better off now.
@@oxaile4021I can tell you people went on Vonkaputous in almost any weather, thought they sold those use once rain jackets near it and if it was pretty or very cold, people definetly didn't want to get soaked, but stil wanted to go on that ride:D There was always quite a long line (relative to lines on other rides in Linnanmäki) on Vonkaputous. Also I'm not 100% sure, but I think you are correct that it used to be the most expensive coaster in Linnamäki before Taiga. Definetly was the most expensive ride to operate:D
@@paaklapiYou definetly got more soaked on vokaputous (except on the third row) than Hurjakuru most rides.
Taiga looks like an incredible coaster. We need something like that at KI, that would fit perfectly in Vortex’s plot
I agree.
I was riding on a warm day. Like 30 degrees Celsius. The airtime on top of the top-hat was actually amazing!!
Also on that day I saw multiple people blackout due to how fast it ran. And guess the part where they blacked out: the top hat😍😅
30C in Helsinki? Damn that's rare
@@joost6994yeah quite rare but happens every summer. Summer temps normally 18-25c, 2-3 weeks usually hit 30c
When I rode this back in 2019 I actually really liked the top hat due to the brief amazing view you get of Helsinki. It's not very exciting but I think it works really well in that way :)
it is a nice view for sure!
Now THIS is a roller that Gröna Lund needs
I now need to go next door to Finland to ride this beast of a coaster!
30 years ago, the Mighty Ducks introduced the world to the Triple Deke. The wait was worth it for it to finally make it as a coaster element on a damn near perfect ride with Taiga
My favourite coaster. I don't know why, but I just love Intamin launch coasters. Taiga and Taron are my favourite coasters ever. So much fun, I agree that Taiga is more intense, I had to take a break after my second ride in a row. But it was super fun.
they build such a great coaster into such a compact space
Definitely the most beautiful rollercoaster, if not only for the trains. And it's got an amazing layout! I wanna go to Finland one day, and I sure as hell wanna go here!
this looks like such a fun roller coaster and definitely top 25 worthy but it weird whenever i think of the worlds best coasters i never think of this one and maybe thats because of the park that its in but i almost never hear people talk about it so its nice to see it finally get some more recognition
It felt like here in Europe it got popular really fast with people praising it being in Europe's top 5 easily, but it seemed like most US channels really slept on that one. I guess it's the location, because otherwise this was pretty much what people have dreamed of with all these RMC like elements on an Intamin multi launch.
TAIGA MY BELOVED
drive safely in the wild
I love this ride. I was last summer there and it was a great experience. especially loved the stall
I loved this video!
i love Taiga with all my heart, i was absolutely shook when i rode it the first time. it has to be the best coaster i have ridden
Just went there first time in my life. Aaaand oh boy, didn't see a thing since it was raining and 9.5C (so 48F). I don't know if any faster summer rides would beat that adrenaline rush, having rain blasting your face going those speeds. Oh boy, 5/5 would do again!
I rode taiga in 2019. It was amazing, but I prefer taron. Taiga has incredible hangtime, and the stall and zero g winder are the best moments on the ride. However, I found taron to have better airtime and more snappy transitions. Also the launch is way more intense. And of course, the theming. The pacing is great on both, they feel really fast and twisted. Taiga is still great, I consider its layout more varied than taron’s, but overall I think taron is the better ride, which seems quite unpopular 😅
Pd: also night rides on taron seem to have a major impact
Taiga is better. Taron should have Inversions to be better
@@thecoasterjunkie5978 you should ride both of them. Taron is great without inversions and the transitions are wicked as hell
@@ProduccionesGarfol
I drove both^^ and many more:)
but
Taron has really great theming, a great layout and great sound effects, for example at the launch, but what makes the coaster a little worse is the not so good q-line, a ride without inversions and the fact that the roller coaster is simply outdated.
@@thecoasterjunkie5978 well, but I think it is still top-notch
FINALLY OMG IVE BEEN WAITING
Taiga is the best rollercoaster at Linnanmäki! (sorry Vuoristorata, even though you are the "original old timer" that will always have a special place in my heart, Taiga is top notch.) The initial launch is exceptional, and the second launch catches you by surprise. It's also long enough for you not to think "oh, it's over already?". I had involuntary tears in my eyes from the sheer speed by the end.
“You okay Patrick”
“FINLAND!”
Luckliy for me I am visitng Linnamaki in July so should hopefully be riding Taiga. Really curious to see whether it beats Velocicoaster for me
Nice!! Have a great time!
Gonna be crowdy
Today I was just thinking about if you made this and here we are!
Like Velocicoaster, it doesn't focus a ton on airtime but more about twists, turns, and inversions.
Linnanmaki and intamin did such a good job, even if i haven't ridden taïga, i think an argument could be made that this is better than Velocicoaster. (Definitly not for theming) but the layout looks awesome.
I love this rollercoaster! One of the best! My partner almost died on this one lol...
Great review - have to get on this one!
Btw, taiga is a word originally from Russian, not Finnish (though the Russians derived it from the Mongols), and it refers to a type of Siberian, subarctic forest.
for my first ride the moment that caught me offguard was the end of those s-bends when it just pulls u down out of nowhere, its not the best moment by far but i think thats why it surprised me like nothing else
It looks like a great coaster with pretty colors, but the drop thing annoys me because my favourite part of a ride is almost always the drop. I guess I'll have to ride it!
That stall is like a gigantic cutback or inverted top hat.
I prefered this over Veloci, it's such an amazing coaster
It's so cool watch these rides and never be able to ride them :')
Do another top 15 I love watching that. BTW can you come to kings dominion Next Thursday
8:54 its shakes???? is it the forces or a little intamin rattle
The inverted stall is a lot like the first inversion on cannibals first inversion.
very similar- just not quite as big!
This ride is pure artistry for me... Its pacing is some of the best I've ever experienced, and it just beat out Zadra for my #1 spot. I would fly back to Finland JUST to ride this ride. PS, night rides during their Halloween event are epic. 🎟😍🎟
6:40 Linnanmäki is my home park and I got to say I've never considered the Immelmann the "signature element" of Taiga. Rather the Zero-G stall or the top hat is, because they're the most noticable elements. Also if you consider this rather an inverted top hat, what are the immelmanns on Yukon Striker and Valrvan, which are both taller than the highest point on Taiga?:D Imo that is an immelmann, not an inverted top hat.
Wonder which is the best intamin multi launch/Blitz coaster there are so many and each look great this includes Maverick, ISpeed, Cheetah Hunt, Nefeskessen, Red Fire, Taron, Steel Dolphin, Taiga, Velocicoaster, Light of Revenge, All Speeds, Pantheon, Toutatis, Batman Gotham City Escape, Soaring with Dragon, Storm Coaster and Manta at SeaWorld Abu Dubai
Velocicoaster is the total package. If you prefer floater then it's Pantheon. If you like high positives it is Maverick. If you like whippy transitions It's Taiga. Best theming Taron. Best for GP, Cheetah Hunt.
@@lastone032085 No one talks about the ones in China, UAE or Turkey
I've rided taiga many times and i love it but the start is super scary
I have been on taiga and ukko i live kinda close to linnanmäki
As a person who lives in Helsinki and visited Orlando a couple months ago I prefer VelociCoaster over Taiga but Taiga over The Incredible HulkCoaster or Manta.
I like the modern track that Intamin makes more than the ordinary track.
Roller coasters that use the modern track VelociCoaster Gotham City Escape Pantheon Kondaa Hyperion Toutatis.
they saw what powerpark did with junker they thought we do that but bigger
*checks airfare to Helsinki* 😀
Why I think that Taiga is overlooked?
Because its somewhere in nowhere... like Wildfire
@@clubstep8244 Yes that's exactly that problem
@@extrakubik4123 For us its a Problem, for people in scandinavia its cool :D
I just rode this coaster a couple weeks ago and although it was fun my body is perfectly build incorrectly for those seats, and my shoulder blades were digging into the edges. Also the lap bars painfully dug in to my thighs and locked there during high G moments which took away from the experience :(
Bring on Toutatis and Batman! We must be living in Intamin’s golden age
So excited for those!
Is it just me or do you usually recommend the front row in your reviews despite how often you claim to be a back row guy, Taylor? :P
I promise most of the time I prefer the back, haha!
I would absolutely love a new top 20 to see if or how far Taiga is going to make it.
No offense but for coaster shots u def should use 60fps cause u can’t really seen the ride smoothly it hurts to focus lol
Is this a top 25 for you?
yes!
This or Velocicoaster’s layout?
I thought you were going to say that in Finland, “Taiga” means “tiger”.
this footage looks sped up lol
I promise its not :)
@@CoasterStudios i know, its just an insanely well paced coaster
dude its weird how you throw your body around while you ride. no offense yo.
That's the ride doing that lol, we aren't throwing ourselves I promise!
That’s the ride forces not him
@@CoasterStudios Love your stuff I won't stop watching.
As a person who lives in Helsinki and visited Orlando a couple months ago i prefer VelociCoaster over Taiga but Taiga over The Incredible HulkCoaster or Manta.
