    Top 10(ish): 2024 Edition - page 124

    😄 Big fan of the inverts especially B&M's, 3 in my top 10 and this one just felt like it put the cherry on top. Probably didn't help we had done Banshee the week before and it was awful and maybe got a bit giddy by this one. But yeah, right to question it... the justification didn't just...

    Last Cred Review

    Ride To Happiness I Did not expect to be blown away by this ride, but I sure was! From start to finish it relentlessly gave you moments of wow! The theming is great for a small park and staff kept the queues low by quickly loading the trains. Re-rode it 7 times before feeling a bit sick :)...

    B&M Vest Restraints vs the original ones

    OG OTSR for me! I dont really have a problem with the vests as such, the problem is the when they get tighter and tighter. Swarm leaves me gasping for air coming into the station. Banshee was awful, although I dont remember the vests locking on that one. Mainly because I could only brave 1 go on...

    Most rerideable coasters?

    We always seem to end up re-riding hypers. They're just so easy to re-ride!

    What is worst coaster ever?

    For woodies, I didn't like Canada's Wonderland offerings. Both Mine Buster and Ghoster Coaster smashed my spine to pieces. As for steel, Green Lantern SFMM, Furious Baco and Time Warp all feature on my "never again" lists

    Biggest Disappointment...

    Icon, Blackpool: I just didnt get the hype. I could run faster than the launch, the top hat slowed it down too much and the twisting and turning was just plain. I do get however, they spent a lot of time and effort getting this ride to fit around everything but for me, they forgot about the...

    Thorpe Park | Derren Brown's Ghost Train | VR Attraction

    Re: Derren Brown's Ghost Train (WC16) | Thorpe Park | May 2 Managed to get on the Ghost Train last weekend, despite a sign out front saying it wouldn't be available. Its wasn't great and there were plenty of "eh, is that it?" comments at the end. The sound on my headset didn't work unless you...

    Whats the best coaster for 'airtime' in the UK?

    I've always enjoyed the little airtime you get after the first loop on Colossus. Although when we rode last season it didn't feel as good.

    Alton Towers, Price rises AGAIN!

    The price of the hotel at AT astounds me more that the gate prices. At the end of April, mid week, off peak they want £446 for 2 nights. Themed rooms are nearly £600 and one of the new tree houses are coming up at £1200 for 2 nights, yep, £1200!!!! :shock:

    Good Parks with Bad Clientele

    Ill second Port Aventura, love it there but the clientele can be awful. Although, with any park the time of year you visit them would have a big impact, I try to stay clear of all parks during school holidays but school kids are not the only problem. Disney Paris, PA, Alton Towers (sometimes)...

    Holiday World | Thunderbird | Launched B&M Wing Coaster

    I would be concerned about how comfortable this will be with the "pinned in the seat" harness. After a launch you’re going to be completely pressed into the back of the seat with that harness pressing down on you. That said, I find the Wing Riders a little boring so at least this adds a new...
