Thorpe Park |"The Swarm"| B&M Wing Coaster If I still lived close I would take my camera (does video) and my 300mm! *memories of when I tripoded up to shoot video of stealth testing*

Thorpe Park |"The Swarm"| B&M Wing Coaster Sensible post in construction topic shocker! But in all seriousness, someone with a decent tele lens needs to get over to monks walk sharpish!

Thorpe Park |"The Swarm"| B&M Wing Coaster [everything Ben said] Touché sir! I actually quite like the idea of the on ride video, if it's good enough quality I probably will buy one of my first ride, mainly because I love a first ride on anything the emotions are so real

Er, thanks... :-/ But yes, I believe it is, unfortunately my coaster bank is not as in credit as I'd like it to be (bit like my actual bank lol) I've been on the old ones like scenic railways and the ones at Blackpool but don't think any other recent woodies I've been on count as modern...

New woodies do well around the world don't they? I don't think there would be as negative reception here as you say, Surely the manufacturers would warn parks of the maintenance requirements? And obviously there is the threat of ADIPS inspection yearly to ensure that they are staying on top of...

Thorpe Park |"The Swarm"| B&M Wing Coaster The problem with them offering digital copies is that it's effectively undercutting their own sales. If they sell you a digital one, you aren't going to need to buy any more than one (and that'll only be if they make you to get the digital one!) of...

Yeah, hex is pretty good already I think, just needs a bit of TLC to get it back to top notch I think last time I went the lightning effects weren't even working in the octagon, that's one of my favourite bits! Alton can do a good dark ride, so hopefully this will be another really good one to...

It depends I think on how they work the story and bring it together. Clearly they are going to be trying to get some sort of encounter type thing going, which is risky because if they get it wrong it could be a total disaster, but I do have faith that they know what they're doing, it's a massive...

New "world's first" coaster at Alton Towers 2013 If that is what we're getting then I officially don't care what manufacturer it turns out to be! That looks amazing! Kudos to them for making the recreation, but minus several million for the crap opening credits lol

SUPERNATURAL: My First Music Video Picture & Video Report I often have a look through those photos, it really was a brilliant weekend shooting! I'm so glad we (finally) got it finished too, and of course pleased that the reaction has been overwhelmingly positive! It was a very tough shoot, it...

Thorpe Park |"The Swarm"| B&M Wing Coaster Will be great for photos too, shame Thorpe are pretty dead set against letting non professional types use tripods in park :-(

New "world's first" coaster at Alton Towers 2013 Isn't volcano a horizontal launch which then pulls up into vertical standard track? And re: raptor's theme, sorry I didn't know specifics of the theme just thought it was kind of destructiony lol.

Thorpe Park |"The Swarm"| B&M Wing Coaster One of the pics shows that they all do I think

New "world's first" coaster at Alton Towers 2013 Oh good :-D And a raptor theme? Wouldn't that be very similar to what Swarm is doing now?

New "world's first" coaster at Alton Towers 2013 Perhaps they will get rid of the abysmal Fanta stuff? Unlikely but we can still hope...
