Today, PortAventura announced that they will be carrying out a partial re-track of Dragon Khan, with the vertical loop and cobra roll to be replaced. It's not clear if this is the first step of a multi-year refurbishment, but it's great to see the park investing in the ride!

Anyone for a ride on Furius Baco? 🙌 This Intamin Wing Coaster opened in 2007 and still has one of the best launches out there! The 83.9 mph launch is on a slight incline, making it feel even more intense 🤩

Merlin Essential Annual Pass replacing some legacy passes (Discovery / Silver) Also slipped in discreetly the return of the annual photo pass at £100.00 including midways

PeterM I dare say they'll use this to ween people off of the very old legacy Standard and Premium Membership rates I've got a Premium monthly for one of the kids and it's £143.88 annually so this would be cheaper and the lack of MAP discounts wouldn't matter as I have 4 others that do!

One of the most intimidating lift hills out there😮‍💨

New Essential Merlin Pass which has replaced the Discovery & Silver pass, priced at £139.

At #78, a forgotten GEM of a wooden roller coaster- its Twister at Knoebels! It might not have the airtime of the other notable coaster here, but it definitely beats it with laterals and an extremely creative layout!! Twister is not to be slept on, so worthy of the Top 100!

Farewell 👋🏻 Who knew?!

Vampire remains closed since the Howl'o'ween preview event 2 weeks ago This highlights how this coaster still props up the ride offering even after 35 years and reaffirms this may not be a quick fix sadly
