I don't typically emote when riding roller coasters, but Poseidon forced some grunts of pain out of me. These Mack water coasters are fine as long as they're going straight, but they just do not track properly around turns at speed, and the bare metal of the sides of the lap bars just obliterates the sides of your knees as the coaster bounces around. Mack does a lot of things well, but these water coasters are absolutely not one of them. And it's a shame, because the layout in general and the theming/terrain interaction and the straight parts and the floaty parts are so good too!
I actually had to try to find a good balance between smoothing the footage so it was watchable and ensuring I was staying somewhat true to how much this thing smacks you around through some of those turns. Let me know if I got it right.
Poseidon is located at Europa Park, an absolutely massive theme park located in Rust, Germany.
I had the opportunity to visit on June 22-24, 2022 as part of a 3-week Germany coastering megatrip. It's an amazing park with tons of unique secrets to discover behind every turn, and I had an absolute blast exploring all the park had to offer.
