November 11, 201311 yr comment_171966 4000th post coming right up.. I'm going to put money on it. This ride is going to be the best ride in Europe by a country mile. I put so much faith into a Mack product and knowing Blue Fire, Helix is just going to be utterly sublime.
November 11, 201311 yr Author comment_171972 I really need to ride this ride!, this will make kanonen look like total dog poop!

January 29, 201411 yr comment_175688 Can. Not. Wait. To. Ride. This. Totally suprised these coasters haven't given B&M a run for their comfy greatness!
February 4, 201411 yr comment_175915 Big old update from TPR... http://themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1407296#p1407296 It's worth the visit, believe me...
February 5, 201411 yr comment_175959 I have my flights booked already. At the very worst Helix looks like it's going to be a good terrain coaster. But I'd say there's a pretty good chance it's going to be top 5 material - Mack make such a quality product.
February 6, 201411 yr comment_176048 That part of the ride should be very fun on the last row. Especially with it being a Mack launch coaster.
February 7, 201411 yr comment_176060 Oh my god. There are no words to describe how hyped I am for this now. Most anticipated ride of the year by a country mile.
February 7, 201411 yr comment_176063 That part of the ride should be very fun on the last row. Especially with it being a Mack launch coaster. That drop is literally out the station, prior to any form of launch... Using the terrain to the advantage
February 9, 201411 yr comment_176186 So for people planning Liseberg trips this season, what else are you planning on doing? Grona Lund doesn't really appeal when one of its biggest coasters is a ZacSpin and I can't really find anything amazing to do in Gothenburg.
February 9, 201411 yr Author comment_176187 http://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Attractions-g189894-Activities-Gothenburg_Vastra_Gotaland_County_West_Coast.html This should help with planning things to do in Gothenburg. Volvo museum anyone As for Gronalund I checked this yesterday on Google maps and it said it was a 55 min plane journey or a 4hr 43 min, drive so unless you like driving alot then I would suggest against that. And yeah like Turtle said it has a Zacspin lol.

Grona Lund doesn't really appeal when one of its biggest coasters is a ZacSpin and I can't really find anything amazing to do in Gothenburg. A Gravity Group Woodie not good enough for you? Shame they never got that B&M Invert they did some concept for a while ago... Problem is it is the opposite side of the country... If you don't care for it, don't bother (especially as expensive country is expensive)...

We're spending four days out there, two days for Liseberg (I'm betting Helix is worth the two days at the park) and the other two days are for cultural stuff. I doubt you'd need more then four days in Gothenburg itself.
