Na Fianna Force Review - The Latest Vekoma Suspended Thrill Coaster
The newest attraction at Emerald Park, formerly Tayto Park in Ireland has now opened (unlike another highly anticipated coaster in the british isles!) I was at the park for media day and got to ride this coaster a lot.
Is it any good though? and how does it compare to The very first Vekoma Suspended Thrill Coaster Hals Uber Kopff ar Tripsdrill? Watch the video and find out!

    I loved Steel Dragon 2000. I was in the last row and I screamed out loud as I was pulled over that first hill. It felt like someone ripped a tig from underneath my feet. I had seen a POV earlier (first row) and I stupidly expected to crawl over that hill. The ride conserve so much energy by not adding any turns until after the third hill. That's why it can take those other two massive hills and keep that amazing speed.

      I'd say they're less aggressive and are more likely to have airtime. In general I think they're targeted more towards those stepping up from family coasters to bigger rides rather than out and out thrill rides. Either way they're great fun and very reridable

      The mapped diagram actually started out with my review of F.L.Y. , wish I'd a much crazier mess of track! The seats don't swing freely, they may have some dampers and socks but I think they're more part of the suspension than anything to have the coaster swinging

    Wow what a strange layout. First half is OK, decent drop for invert, seems there might even be an airtime pop, then it just meanders and literally does nothing after the second inversion for the entire rest of the ride. Boring. Why when they could have put anything they wanted did they go for a layout like this?

    Nice review! I like the fact that you pointed Mack's history of showcasing rides at Europa. I agree with your point about the outer seats on the big dipper and I would imagine that could be an issue with this coaster. How was the pacing with the ride? On-ride POV's it looks great. Off ride it looks a little hit or miss. Regardless of the nit-picking Europa has a hit on their hands with this one, I think. Looking forward to riding it in July.

    I don’t know if this is confirmed, but from what I’ve heard, the pre show track (or as Mack Rides call it “the Effect Track”) is meant to act as a scale, weighing the train to determine how much energy and power is needed to launch the train up the inverted top hat.
