Busch Gardens Williamsburg Project 2025/Holzfäller: Big Bad Wolf 2 (B&M Family Invert)

It's now "The Wolf" on Google Maps ... I guess they just can't fathom these crazy long new names?
Great. So for some reason the original Google Maps entry for the coaster was just entirely deleted and a new one was created with a new, incorrect name...?
If BGW marketing was even remotely functional, they should be claiming the attraction (and all other points of interest in the park) on Google Maps with their business profile to ensure that correct, up to date information is provided. Insane that this still hasn't occured.

Shockingly good bit of promo material there! You don't expect parks to put out info that people like us don't know, but there was some legit new info in there—particularly in regards to some of the art featured around the attraction. Super neat!
Not true at all. The only thing left from DF under the station is the footers. Nothing else.
How do I know? I've been under there myself.

Yeah, everyone knows all the Drachen Fire track was melted into supports for Griffon.

I thought it was melted to to make the metal building for then, Curse of DarKastle. You to keep it in Germany.
I finally rode it in person last Saturday and everything people have said about it is true. Verbolten may have the iconic drop to the Rhine River, but Big Bad Wolf: The Wolf's Revenge is the best family coaster in the park period. Best theming, smoothness, right amount of speed, best night ride etc. Considering how well done the previous in-park projects were two years in a row, kind of bodes well for the "Italian Le Mans" project coming next year.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but is this the first time we’ve actually seen something from the park on the height of the ride?It’s a nice ride. Especially the first part with all of the swooping. The first part is definitely better than the second part. It would’ve been better if they were reversed.
The plaza would benefit from planting additional trees. It feels a little bare.

That’s fair. But keep in mind that the trees are still young. it should look significantly better once they actually grow in.
I think it will look amazing in 10 years
I was taking that into consideration. For example, you can tell that the queue for Rapterra it’s going to be pretty lush if all the trees and bamboo survive. But it looks like around the plaza area, where the shop and the entrance to the.Queue are on BBW there aren’t any new trees

I make YT videos, check them out!
The Epic Effect
as some would say 
It’s definitely the same as Epic Universe in that regard. It’ll be amazing once it’s grown in but for now it’s not quite as outstanding as it could be

Rode this last weekend so I can finally give my thoughts.
Going with B&M was the right move. The almost purely out-and-back layout would not be enhanced by swinging, the tighter clearances made for a near-miss on each side, and the on-board audio worked well for me. They got the intensity right. Punchy but not punishing. Rattle was nonzero, but less than Steel Curtain opening day to give an example of a rattly ride I can remember.
The theming really makes the ride. I wouldn't mind going a couple years between coasters if it meant the other coasters would have this standard of theming.
I guess this is the flip side of getting a 42" minimum: the seats are a bit tight even for smaller adults.

Just saw a BBW billboard right outside of Kings Dominion
Umm...BGW has been paying for that particular billboard placement for a long time now - see the Finnegan's Flyer thread
