  • We rode The All American Triple Loop at Indiana Beach, which I think can fairly be named the most brutal roller coaster in the United States! This is the relocated Schwarzkopf Dreier Looping coaster which originally opened in 1984 as a traveling roller coaster on the German fair circuit. I just missed the chance to ride this coaster when I operated as Quimera at its previous home in Mexico City at La Feria.
    We also check out two credits in the Chicago area, one was awesome and the other not so much!

    After a little bit of googling, I can tell you that the People's Choice Fun Center was previously a HOBO (Home Owners Bargain Outlet) store, part of a small chain of 7 stores in the Chicagoland area which went out of business in 2018. I can only assume that when they closed the store they just left behind a bunch of unsold merchandise in the store, and the current tenants can't be bothered to get rid of it.

    12:06 the ultimate.... Was at my local park.... When I was younger I rode it all day and did 47 laps to raise money for charity...... I still have the extra lumps of bone on my knees!
    I tried to get a piece of the track and at least part of the trfin into the railway museum (as it was finished by British railways) and I got a cease and desist letter from the parks solicitors! What a way to show love to fans!
    Stay epic!

    *All American Tripple Loop* (A transportable funfair attraction former called *Dreier Looping* ) is from the same German Manufacturer *Anton Schwarzkopf* who also build the famous *Olympia Looping* . The attraction was traveling through Germany for 12 Years before it left Germany according to Wickipedia.
    I myself drove the *Olympia Looping* a few times and the wagons and restrains are very similar if not equal to this ride. I have the same complains about the Shoulder restrains but honestly wouldn't be sure if the coaster is safe enough without in an upside down stalling insident.
    Back in the day these coasters were not developed with CAD and simulations but by experience, real drawings and more or less handcalculations. I saw a documentary about the way Schwarzkopf used to develop his coasters. So they were usually kind of rough. Also many techniques like the heard line were not invented yet as far as I remember. So always better prepare for some head shakes 😂
    By the way I'm from Germany and I like your documentaries about specific Rolllercoasters a lot. Always interesting to watch. 👍🏼

    I rode this hundreds of times when it was at Flamingoland as Magnum Force. With arms in the air... mind, I was 20 years younger then. 😂
    Also removed the rally harness one time - the trains were original back then and only had a lapbar until Flamingoland added rally harnesses. I wanted to feel like a German at the fairs... only did it once. 😂
    Its slower than used to be, the mid course tyre runs used to boost it. The kiddie coaster at the end is how Triple Loop rode with just lapbars. 😁

    So…LoCo SuMo used to be this weird, self-propelled dark ride of sorts. It had this strange out and back roller coaster element (mostly flat), but turned into a dark ride in the back half. It was STRANGE.
    At some point, they turned it into a full fledged roller coaster with the same footprint, which required the vertical lift because it didn’t have a lift hill in its prior life.
    They used the same faux mountain and same basic track layout, but added hills and whatnot. It’s kind of a feet of modern engineering.

    Brace yourself into the restraint. It sucks, I know, mainly because Schwarzkopf is known for incredible looping coasters that only need a lapbar. But ride ops will tell you that trick. Rode this last week and I strongly urge new riders to stick to the front car. The back just has a lot more of the whip effect on the head. But yeah it’s unfortunate because it’s such a great layout. The air hill is a nice surprise.

  • @Harley-and-Her-Ruff-Riders
    @Harley-and-Her-Ruff-Riders Před měsícem

    13:27 that’s almost definitely an old car from Quimera. My guess is the park is using the redesigned cars from Galaxyland because they meet current safety guidelines but are Frankensteining what they can from Triple Looper’s original cars. The Triple Loop used cars that had major design flaws up until it derailed in 2019. How it lasted that long with such neglect I don’t understand.
    But there was an issue with the screw in the wheel assembly. I’m Canada’s Galaxyland, this led to it failing, which led to the car being unable to make a loop, which led to a train derailing and the lap bars releasing. So to fix that, you get these crazy trains: they’re a car shorter than designed, are so restrictive that it makes the g-forces that much worse on your body as you can’t move properly, and they’re super loud as they have twice as many wheels now.
    It’s disappointing that they didn’t fix this during the twelve year fair circuit in Germany, since it ran there from 1984 to 1996. There was no reason it couldn’t have been updated after the company worked with Galaxyland.

    In Germany (and some parts of The Netherlands), the Schwarzkopf ride is touring fairs as "Olympia Looping". I rode it in the 90s, and it was indeed "quite rough". But it was unique to have a ride like this at the fair, so there was a long queue all night long, with people glady paying a premium price. And as I was still young and spry as I rode it, no permanent damage was incurred by riding it 😊
