300 - El Condor

Location : Walibi World, Netherlands
Date first rode : May 2005
Still there? : Yes
ECC : Yes
ERS : No



This is apparently the first ever SLC coaster and has such a bad reputation within the club, that I thought I'd never like this one even though I can tolerate the ride generally. As it turns out, the ride was OK but not great but it still becomes memorable as it is my 300th.

Some coaster fans would juggle the ride order to avoid rides like this. Why bother?
