The amusement park in northern Belgium became a big player in the European park scene during the last 32 years.
The basis of its success is the mixture of unique attractions and thrill-packed rides: Visitors can anticipate six roller coasters and four water rides in the 2004 season. In addition, the "green" park built around a central lake offers a wide variety of fun for the small ones.
Having opened the first enclosed play area for children in the mid-90s Bobbejaanland can be seen as the inventor of indoor playgrounds.

This looping coaster is Gerstlauer´s second delivery of the Euro-Fighter model after the very successfull premiere of Vild Svinet in BonBon Land, Denmark. Unlike this coaster the one at Bobbejaanland will have a very compact layout, offering the furious first drop as well as four inversions. The adrenaline rush starts when the car leaves the station themed in space style, climbing up the impressive vertical lift and going down the 97-degree drop before it negotiates a vertical loop and three heartline-rolls. More information and pictures about Vild Svinet can be found here! Please note that this article is German only.

Jacky Schoepen, junior director of Bobbejaanland, was looking for an adequate successor for his 24 year old Schwarzkopf Looping Star for quite a while.
He wanted another looping coaster, but it should be something special.
On a tradeshow he saw a model at the booth of the German company Gerstlauer, and the concept with its special kick directly appealed to him: Single cars climb a tower-like structure, pass the top and dive down in an angle of 97 degrees - steeper than vertical!

Almost two years later the preparations in the park and at the manufacturer gain speed: Engineers calculate the dynamics, the cars are being built and the track is being bent - The coaster has to be operational on April 3rd, the first day of the 2004 season. In November 2002 the contract was signed,
in early 2003 the engineers began with their work and now the project "
Typhoon" reaches its final stage.

Det är inte bara 2 nya Roller Coasters som Bobbejaanland öppnar 2004

Det blir en Jätte Frisbee också ifrån Huss, en likadan öppnade i Paramount King Island 2003

Det verkar som 2004 är rätt år att besöka Bobbejaanland

Air Race
T
his suspended coaster looks really impressive. Its scaffoldings are put up in a lake. The Airrace is situated at the North of the park, past the cowboy village.

Riding the coaster gives a nice overview of Bobbejaanland.
 
Onces boarded, its a hit. For the kick-lovers, it might be a soft attraction, others consider it to be a nice experience.

The ride runs smoothly, even when the airplaines sway, as all happens quite controlled.

Revolution
T
his is a very unique indoor coaster.
The train is climbing in large cirkels, and at the same moment you can see a movie playing at the top of the building.
Once you're at that top, be sure to be ready for the way down, a way filled with effects.
No hard accelerations, but a rather unique experience in the dark. Absolutely a must!
