I witnessed Sara's loading drama on Steel Hawg when exiting the ride that day. LOL :)
“Wow this is loud”
Smash cut to them yelling after riding. Hearing protection is important, y’all 😂
It sounded like a launch was going to happen
It’s remarkable it’s still operating after all these years and La Feria’s negligence
Goes to show how strong and strurdy Schwarzkopf's coasters are when properly maintained.
German engineering at its finest!
triple loop would make such a good coaster parody 😂
I haven't heard that name in years... 👴
OMG we're getting a Schwartzkopf Shuttle Loop!!!!!! Bring on the Tidal Wave nostalgia!
There used to be a tiny park in Northern Indiana called Fun Spot. It had one. So it's been 31 years since I rode one. I'm actually excited. 😂
@@clevelandcbi yes, but Fun Spot's was an made by Arrow. The one seen in pieces at Indiana Beach is a Schwarzkopf....very different.
I love how indiana beachs whole gimmick is vintage and antique rides. Cant wait to visit someday
I went to Indiana Beach several years ago but the park was VERY different then since I visited during the previous owner's regime and it wasn't run nearly as well. The Good: Cornball is really fun, Steel Hawg was great (it was new the year we went), the swings really are INSANE, the Skyride gives you some amazing views of the lake and park, Tiger is really fun, and the boat trip around the lake is gorgeous. The Bad: Hoosier Hurricane and Lost Coaster were NOT running (SO bummed we missed out on Lost!), we skipped the dark rides but IIRC I don't think they were even open, the water park water was BROWN in some spots which we saw from the Skyride, and I don't remember the food being that great but we skipped the tacos (I don't even remember what we ate that day). I probably need to go back at some point now that they seem to be taking better care of things there and I agree with Sarah, the views and the area are amazing around the lake (are the houses still huge there? There were some mansion sized houses around that lake!). Thanks for this awesome video and I'm glad Sarah enjoyed her first trip there! =)
Houses still there 👍👍
Imagine waiting for a new anticipated roller coaster that everyone has been waiting for, only for it to be a rough coaster
It's and older relocated coaster, it was always going to be rough
@@seriomarkj The thing is it was manufactured for being portable, olympia looping and Alpina Bahn are still butter smooth and those have been traveling nonstop since the 80s. So it being rough is suprising
It’s been sitting outside for years and it’s using trains from a different coaster, it would probably be more manageable with lap bars and a Premier retrack
@@seriomarkjPhoenix isn’t.
@@dolovo_gaming3081 not surprising it was abused when it was opened in mecio not to mention 40 years old the ride is literally passed its lifrspan its a ccident waiting to happen
21:39 Looks like Coaster Dash also sneaked into this video
Yeah 😂
I think that was him... didn't know he went to Indiana Beach
Lol
It IS him… with Sam and Skylar from Thrills United and Koaster Kids.
We are so used to modern roller coasters that we have forgotten that in the 90s riding a roller coaster was something that excited you but was often painful. My first roller coaster was an Anton Schwarzkopf katapult and it was a mix between excitement and pain because it was not a smooth ride at all.
Yeah, I don't mind rough and janky, but don't want painful. I'm not a teenager anymore hahah.
@@jonny-b4954My nearby park only had roller coasters by Anton Schwarzkopf and now I have B&M and Intamin but I remember leaving Jet Star, which in the beginning was for 4 people and in the end they only took two per car and left chafing on my arms due to the G forces.
I was there last week and loved AATL, but mainly due to making sure the shoulder restraints were low enough to squeeze against, and then bracing for some of the jankier transitions. I marathoned it for about ten cycles in a row, and the ride ops thought I was insane. Perhaps they're right. The whole park is amazing, charming, and worth the side-trek. You made me long to go back there again soon (which I might do.)
The Shuttle Loop likely IS for Niagra Amusement Park - it’s probably at Indiana Beach for its refurbishment. They built that shop specifically to work on old Schwarzkopfs, and Niagra has no facilities of the sort.
Quality video! I used to go here every summer for years. Heading back next weekend for the first time in 10 years
damn allergies must have hit yall hard for this
It was so awkwardly painful, and i really wanted to love it. It was a 4 hour trip from our hotel, and while the park itself was worth it for Cornball, Lost Coaster, and Tiger - Triple Loop was the first coaster to actually punch me. Unlike the slcs that give constant headbanging, this actually brutally thrusted me from side to side. It felt like a carcrash. It was not good, and i wanted to like it so bad.
Lol, I was waiting for this one to drop. You caught me in your off ride footage. Truly caught my misery in 4K
FINALLY!!! I've been waiting for this moment in time!
I'm curious to know what hair gel taylor uses since it can withstand coaster hair lol
a magician never reveals his secrets
Schwarzkopf hair gel to survive a Schwarzkopf coaster.
@@AllanP692dammit beat me to it
@@AllanP692I was about to say "it's got-2-b glüd to be so stiff." 😂
@@CoasterStudiosI want to know so my hair doesn't look messy after rides lol
I love this little park. Triple loop wasnt open when i went last year
Looks like Indiana Beach has changed so much since I last visited in 2021. Hopefully I can go back next year to ride Cyclone and Triple Loop.
I was just happy that they did not close this quaint and charming park forever...... And yes, AATL is really bad even worse when you are 6' 4"! This was at our San Fran 6 Flags park for a couple seasons years back....and it was still really new then, and I never thought it was THAT bad. Steel Hog looks SO smooth and bad ass I think.

I fell in love with this park. Its so unique. And great ride collection
Indiana beach is my childhood park, definitely one of my favorites 🤍
I just came back from Indiana Beach. I rode the Triple Loop about 8 times. Front seat is the best. The last seat was very abusive. It backs some G force especially the first drop. If you brace your self and hold on I think it makes it a better experience. It really just needs softer restraints and it would be great. I thought it was an intense ride - just sit in the front. They will let you wait for front seat. Hurricane when it was first built was super smooth - they need to turn it into a hybrid with inversions. Everyone should support indie / local parks.
I like flight deck at wonderland so when I see "painful" rides they go to the top of my need to ride list
You should get on Pegasus at Mount Olympus, probably the jankiest ride in existence
@@tannert.2296 will look it up now, appreciate the heads up 🙏
@tannert.2296 Pegasus is perfectly fine until the last 1 second of the ride where the Engineers forgot it had to make it back to the station, then it dose a 80⁰ turn 😂
I learned about Indiana Beach from Coaster Studios. I didn't know the park existed until the closing was announced in January 2020. And then when Gene bought the park in April 2020. My first visit was in mid-July 2020. IB became my home park during the summer of 2020. These days I visit at least twice a season. It would be four times, but they no longer open the park after early September. Their haunted house (not Frankenstein's Castle) was amazing.
i personally loved it, went opening day and it was glossy smooth with no pain at all
It's crazy to think that it's the same rollercoaster I rode so so sooo many years ago at Flamingo Land when I was a kid 😂 I am not sure if it was the first ever looping coaster I rode but my memory is a bit fuzzy. You guys definitely have better weather 😂👍
That shuttle loop you saw at American triple loop actually started as laser loop at kennywood, it might head to Niagara amusement park, don’t know though.
It was at niagara for about 2 years but was never built
@@Liight it could head back but it might be built at Indiana beach
They might just be refurbing the track at IB where they have the stuff to do it. I wonder if everything is out of the parking lot at Niagara.
Watching you go through the pirate dark ride took me back to my childhood!
The guy in the back seat of the Triple Loop shaking his head spoke volumes to me!
I'm down here in Southern Indiana.
Basically Holiday world country down here. I had season passes to Holiday world from 98 to 2014. I remember my dad would win tickets to Indiana beach from the county fair when I was a kid so we'd also go there occasionally.
I find myself going to Indiana beach more often. You can't take for granted. Going to a theme park and getting to ride every single ride as much as you want. Reminds me of holiday world in the early 2000s before it got bigger I guess. Honestly the only people from around here that have been to Indiana Beach are people I've taken LOL. I love showing people it. We also stop at Indiana dunes when we head up there it's a must.
Fun fact about the shuttle loop, it originally opened at kennywood as laser loop
Going tomorrow! Hopefully AATL is not as bead as I’ve heard. Your thoughts eased my anxiety about it!
Some gorgeous footage of the rides in this video!
As a local, Indiana Beach is a place of nostalgia. Their rides may be a little rough, but I still find it so much fun to go to. If you want a really nice park, Holiday World is always my top pick, even above Kings Island. 🎶 There's more than corn in Indiana 🎶
My son and I went to IB two weeks ago as part of our six day, four park Coaster Roadtrip. Wish we would have known about 1st row vs. 2nd row of each car. We were in car 1, row 2 and it was absolutely brutal. It was a fun little park though and a good experience overall.
Pro tip on top of a pro tip: buy a bottle of water from the funnel cake stand by Cornball. It’s like a whole 2 dollars or so cheaper than the bottles at the taco stand iirc
I’m going to Indiana beach tomorrow I’m so excited
I really enjoyed my short visit to Indiana Beach. Would really like to go back. Charming park. The rides were mostly mid, but loved the vibe of the place.
Lucky! When we went for our VLOG it was closed all day... I think you went a few days after.
Welcome to Indiana Beach
12:11, the poor lady in the glasses trying to adjust her next tells me all I need to know about this ride.
With the money they spent on three aged roller coasters, they could have gotten a high quality modern day Gerslauer roller coaster.
Excuse me....NECK....freaking autocorrect doesn't know crap.
8:41 Galaxi (the original before Cyclone) WAS my first coaster! Kinda counts as a kiddie/family ride.
Cornball Express night ride in the very far back row is the best ride in the park. Also, how did you not do the boat cruise? You get some amazing views of the park and rides.
Loving the montages!
Honestly I think the issue on Triple loop might actually be the new trains. The old Schwarzkopf trains had wheelsets spaced far apart, allowing them to twist a lot and the carriage to smoothly follow suit. But the Mindbender trains, due to their design, have several bogies close together, and I cant help but think that means the trains cant conform around the sharp transitions as well, leading to the uncomfortable sensations at these twisted drops and turns. On Mindbender this might not have been an issue due to that ride being much larger and having more elongated transitions, but Triple loop is much more compact by comparison! Its just a hypothesis but I think thats the issue and the solution might be getting different trains from the ride. Either some in the classic configuration like how they were originally, or a newly designed train by someone like Gerstlauer.
I rode Quimera and while I wouldn't call it butter smooth, it didn't hurt. I didn't notice any weird kinks back then. It was also insanely intense due to the lack of trims.
Holiwood nights was rough on the voices :P
I can tell sounds like they lost their voices
I live in Michigan and have never been to IB, but I might get there next month, finally. Got to say, I am excited at the prospect of a Schwarzkopf shuttle loop, since I've never gotten to ride one!
I was there today I live in Indiana it was so fun and insane the big wooden one was so fun
It was not designed for such short trains. The original trains had just a lapbar that hold your upper legs inside the train without the seatbelts. It ran very smooth in Mexico. Shame to see that it no longer isn't.
I'm in the background of this - just happened to be there the same day by chance. It's a significantly better park than from when I was a kid. I miss the slower dark ride atmosphere of Lost Coaster and when the other dark ride wasn't a shooting gallery... but other than that, it's just better. Was kind of a seedy/dirty park, now it's clean, nice, and fun. Hoosier Hurricane could use some TLC. Really recommended.
A ride with these G's does not need shoulder restraints at all, only lap bars. Hoosier was CCI's major dud as far as layouts are concerned. Very rare from them.
Very good the they brought this ride back. It has had tons of history in different parks and a very bad accident but these Schwarzkopfs are so classic.
Rode AATL last weekend. You practically had to staple yourself with the shoulder restraints to brace yourself. The transitions on the first drop and into the double loops was a bit painful. The transition into the last loop was fine. HH was rough. Cornball and lost coaster are outstanding
It would be great if they could just use the same trains as Shockwave or if another manufacturer could basically recreate them. It really is sad that Schwarzkopf is gone because they really made amazing rides that were decades ahead of their time. Plus you run into stuff like this where parks have to use scrap pieces to keep them going.
Thanks for your honesty. Since I have already done superstition and cornball a bunch of times, I'm removing this park from next years multi country mega trip as I was only going to go back to do this, but it doesn't sound worth it to me. I'll ride Olympia Looping in Wiener Prater instead.
Went there Memorial Day weekend and Triple Loop, Lost Coaster, and Hoosier Hurricane were all closed.
Lmao at everyone coming back into the station wailing and complaining 😭 the ride operator was probably just like 🧍🧍🧍
I was at this park the day before y’all and i will say, triple loop was insanely painful. I genuinely couldn’t enjoy the ride due to all the pain.
Finally someone talks about it
This was an awesome ride when it was magnum force at flamingo land
I didn’t know that was still open. Sorry but it doesn’t look anymore appealing than it did in the 70’s 😂 We were Kings Island kids, as were my kids. This was a great watch, Thanks Guys!! I just might cruise up there for shits & giggles 🥱
Is that ride under construction next to Triple Loop a Falling Star? If it is, the park must've got it outta storage. They used to have it back in the day
The falling star is still there. Just in a different location for years. I loved the old location by the ole music express location better.
At least if they ran the Galaxi with the dual car configuration, it actually becomes a decent ride in the back row and would double capacity. The way they have done it, well it's barely a filler coaster IMO.
they thinking about making it double tandem again.
I blame La Féria for the reason why it’s so rough. With track as damaged and worn as Quimera’s you can only refurbish it so much. I wish they could’ve used the quimera trains while using spare wheels from mind bender. At least this doesn’t have the zonga horse collars.
The track was at Niagra Park, shocked that the track is there now. But I'm pretty sure the train for that launch coaster is still there
UPDATE: 4 weeks after riding Triple Loop, my upper back no longer has any pain! That first week though… that was hell.
I had a season pass last year, and I am really surprised all the rides were running. Did they know you were coming, or have operations improved?
Indiana Beach isn't perfect, but the fact they cram 7 roller coasters onto just 10 acres is absolutely incredible. For perspective, its 30x smaller than most popular amusement parks.
Really wanna airbnb by this place and just drop in and out over a week
Max Height: 77".. I guess us tall coaster enthusiasts are saved from the head banger.
I’m about 74” and couldn’t fit so…oh well. Doesn’t sound like I missed a lot.
So we have a lake house on Shaffer and as a kid IB was awesome. Use to be able to get dropped off by boat then picked up later. It use to be a very kid friendly park as most rides are for kids. 98% of that park has been the same for decades. Only 2 coasters have been built in the last decade or so. Steel hawg was built before it closed. Then the triple loop is the newest. It's too expensive now so we just play on the water. It use to be like 15-20$ for a full day wrist band.
I am hoping I get to go this year. I agree that lost coaster and the haunted castle are the best attractions there.
No mentions of what folks thought of steel hawg. Were they still running only one train?
I thought it was ok. The drop was good and the downward roll, but it is basically an upsidedown mad mouse, with too long a wait in line.
I am hoping if I go the info you gave for a pain free ride on triple loop, will make me want to ride it more than once.
I love the park though. Should have went when it used to be free to get in, with the ride wristbands. Made the experience so much better. They also had rock bands that would play at night. Even a Kiss Tribute band.
Such a shame a lot of people aren't digging All American Triple Loop, the park looks like they're struggling already and now the new investment looks like it's gonna flop. I just hope things work out for this place.
I think softer restraints would help... Its currently best in the front seat and the last seat was brutal. Its intense though... first drop is crazy the way its angled. Hanging on and bracing yourself helps too.
LOST COASTER ROCKS ! was there last week and going back soon . I live halfway between Indiana Beach and Cedar Point and i claim IB as my home park. A janky beautiful family owned park that is brilliantly designed on a small plot of land . A lot of the rides are built over the water .
Hm. I marathoned Quimera over two days. For me it was violent and janky, but not painful.
all American triple loop was closed the day i went which was only like 1 or 2 weeks after opening and they said it was cause people complained about hurt necks.
Why is there a drive tire lift? Why is it so loud? Why are there two successive loops the same size and they look circular? So many questions just from looking at it i cant imagine riding it.
Because its a Schwarzkopf coaster
I love Indiana Beach (especially Cornball and Frankenstein's Castle). Regarding your complaints about the OTSRs, Schwartzopf wasn't a fan of them. Most of his looping coasters used just a lap bar. And that allows your entire body to shift smoothly, reducing stress on your neck.
I had a great time. Rough as hell. But my neck was ready, i had it stiffed back to back rest. Cause if you dont do that, its whiplash city.
I totally agree with what Sarah said..💯💯👌👌like why invest in crappy coasters.when you could build like one or two decent ones...or possibly 3...this is what I would do for Indiana Beach ⛱️...1st..they need a invert.. something like monster at grouna land.. if they can't afford that then a Vekoma stc....just intertwin with stuff... inversions..airtime..that will kill here..2nd a launch coaster with inversions...intamin hot rail.. or what ever they call it...or zamplerla lightning launch.. something compact... inversions.air time...and 3rd a gers. Vertical lift and drop.. something like monster..but on smaller scale...if they build these 3 .
I'm telling you... Indiana will be on map... period 💯💯🎤🎤🎤..and if they also wanted they can rmc hurricane... you guys even said so your self..it sucks .. imagine that will some inversions... airtime... wicked turns...that will be sickkk...🔥🔥🔥🔥...but that's just what i would do.. thought's 🤔🤔🤔🤔
There wood coasters are custom buildl - one of a kind. That makes it a unique park. Its an old school park - they should get an old school Arrow coaster with inversions.
My neck was super sore for the remainder of my trip (Holiday world, Kentucky Kingdom) after it got clobbered on triple loop
oof
Love this park
Was that Coasterdash on the front row of Triple loop?
cyclone has so good airtime on some of the drops
I get motion sickness and the new ride would damn near kill me 😂
18:30 For those in the know, it's Lo-Co-Su-Mo.
What is your favorite ride present day Taylor? Mine is Velocicoaster. What is yours, I feel like u always change it???
Thanks for the walk through of the coasters. I have always been curious about Steel Hawg, but you really didn't give any type review of your experience. So, I assume it was also pretty rough and not enjoyable.
Taylor didn't ride it this time cause Sarah did it while he was re-riding All American Triple Loop. We've done a couple of these S&S El Loco's before- they're fun, but we're not a fan of the shoulder harnesses. Its much more enjoyable when they have lap bars, like the ones in Vegas and Australia
Hershey Zach!
It's not a bad park. I like to see them moive kids' land, not having it under the big wood costers and as expensive as it might be RMC the Hoosier Hurricane maybe moive the drop tower and expand the water park it be a lot and take time but that may be the beast for that park
#Request : Now that you have both been to Indiana Beach, will you post a ranking video of all the boardwalk/seaside parks you have visited? I would love to see how a boardwalk park in the middle of corn country ranks against Santa Cruz, Morey's Piers, and Grona Lund.
We were just there today... triple loop hurt. Cyclone, meh. Lost Coaster is the best in the park. Unfortunately today was the heat wave of 97 degrees out and the park made it feel worse. Still fun though
Come on! Niagara Amusement needs more rides! My local park is trying to make a comeback!
I rode AATL as Magnum Force at Flamingoland (UK). Glass smooth, lap bars only. No seat belts or OTSR’s, just high backed seats. Rode about a dozen times during ERT. It’s a shame what’s been done to it.
Edited to add: It also ran with 5 car trains, not 3 (same as Mindbender, I think.)
Look at how they massacred my boy
I don’t really understand why they couldn’t use the original better looking and more comfortable lap bar trains. Was it something to do with the accident?
Just be happy it exists at all. could've been scraped....
I feel for parks like this, where they don't have a lot of money to spend on rides but they want to add new coasters for people so they try to find rides that fit in the budget they have to work with. But then they end up with janky relocations of rides that were questionable before they got moved across the world and they are just pain machines that nobody realistically wants to go on more than once. I feel like they would be better off saving for 3 or 4 times as long and getting something significantly more expensive but a better experience for guests.
