This is a music video from the danish amusement park called Dyrehavsbakken AKA Bakken. It's a place that I like to visit even though many of their rides isn't in an optimal condition.
@SeanFlaharty well, in my opinion it's so far one of the best danish coasters I've ridden. If you are not prepared for its firstdrop it can be quite violent. A friend of mine got whiplash because of it. I think it's great fun to ride it though. Good speed, nice curves and if you're lucky you will also experience som ejecter airtime.. :D
@Superkyllingibsen - I want to ride that Intamin spinner but I have heard mixed reviews about it. From the pictures I have seen it looks to be something I would like.
@SeanFlaharty it's still a nice place with good food and OK rides but not as epic as it was. They also removed the KMG Afterburner and replaced it with some sort of kiddy-water-splash ride. Haven't ridden it and I won't in protest. There've allways been a big flat on that place. I want another one. We can only hope that Bakken will get another "Shiny-Time". A good thing I can point out was when they build the Intamin Spinner. Good replacement for the old casino house... :D
@SeanFlaharty as far as I'm told that was also one of the parks good years. No Kumbak trains, Double Shot shooting well, long cycles on Polyp, lights and brakes working on Extreme with the arms going 180 degrees up. Back then Extremes owner also was almost 1 hour away so the ops ran some CRAZY manual rides instead of the auto program. Now the owner is like 2 minutes of walking away and if the ops is getting caught running manual they most likely gets fired in the place! ;(
But as I wrote in the discription some of their rides isn't in the optimal condition. The old Rutschebanen got som Kumbak trains which made it suck compared to when the brakeman was there, Polyp's ride cycles is too short, Double Shot's shoot is weaker than it was once, Extreme's arms only flip 90 degrees op instead of the full 180 degrees it's build to do, also many light bulbs doesn't work together with the gondola brake. But still a nice place :D
@Superkyllingibsen - Sounds like I would like the ride!

@Superkyllingibsen That's a shame. Out of all the parks I did on my European trip in 2007, this was one of the parks I really wanted to go back to.

@Superkyllingibsen - That's sucks to hear. When I was there in 2007 it was one of the best parks I went to on my trip.
