If this has the Whizzer style seating that I think these things usually have it might be pretty cool. Also tell me the video song wasn't 'mmm bop' in a different language

This ride actually looks like a lot of fun. I'm going to Berlin in August anyway. So looks like I'm going to pay them a visit.

Big fan of the RCT1 "oops no speed" tiny chainlift into the station system. Also neat use of double ups in the layout.

Neat little ride, I guess it was cheaper to build a lift hill than dig out more dirt haha.
