    Djurs Sommerland | T-Rex Family Coaster | Mack Powered Coaster | 2022

    Unofficial YT POV of the coaster.. as mentioned above, not sure why they didn't go the extra mile on getting the theming up to par. Several bare or sparse areas / outlook points. Overall good addition for attendence and spreading crowds.

    In continuation of the latter, i would agree that the social media marketing campaign have been a bit odd. Normally parks tease with a logo, name, and slowly reveal details. Especially since its the biggest investment of the parks history (close to 100m'dkk)
