    What is your favourite traditional (non-RMC or Intamin prefab) wooden coaster?

    Phoenix at Knobels is by far the best traditional woodie I've done. The GCI's are good fun but often lacking airtime. Wodan is absolutely mental on a good day and Joris is a worthy contender.

    I had the same issue but the Classic Rides DLC was on sale at £4 so went for it. Worth downloading for the cool Efteling observation tower thingy 🙌

    Getting in early as I've been 'working' from home today... Had a lot of fun putting this together and managed to accidentally break the world Inversion record. Features a steep indoor drop followed by an inversion, like Saw. The rest of the ride is best described as a launched version of The...

    Neck and neck between Maurer and Gerst.

    Alton Towers | Nemesis Reborn | B&M Retrack | 2024

    They can be tight but they give your upper body more visual freedom. The old style feels more claustrophobic around ones head.

    Alton Towers | Nemesis Reborn | B&M Retrack | 2024

    Speaking of angry faces... I wouldn't mind if Nemesis got the vest restraint trains. Quite liked them on Banshee.

    Your Least Common Opinion?

    I thought the Hyperion rattle was an issue with just one of the trains?

    Your Least Common Opinion?

    The old Maverick vs Taron debate is an interesting one. Weird as it sounds they're completely different rides. Taron's in my top 5 and Maverick sneaks into the top 10. I think it's fair to say Maverick is the better layout and it's more intense with better airtime. I rate Taron more highly...

    Day 3: Disneys California Adventure When planning the trip I had this down as possibly a half day park. Knowing how crap the Paris studio park is and having previously done WDW's Hollywood Studios in a couple of hours; I kind of expected to just whizz through this park too. I couldn't have been...

    The first UK RMC; where will it happen?

    Trust us to finally get an RMC and it's a kiddie version.

    Your train station count

    I'd estimate about 75% of tube stations - mostly as a teen with a £2 child travel card and a BMX! 30-50ish around the UK when working away or following Chelsea.

    Icon Park - Drop Tower Accident 24/03/2022

    It shouldn't need to come down to that tbf. If the restraint is locked in and the ride is able to dispatch I think it's fair for the ride staff to assume its good to go. Just a tragic design flaw it seems.

    Working in the industry

    My experience was mostly negative and turned out to be a pretty miserable time in my life. I worked in sales/business development role at a Merlin attraction during its construction. It was an unfamiliar role to them and they seemed to make it up as they went along. Turns out it's quite hard...

    Icon Park - Drop Tower Accident 24/03/2022

    Unbelievable. Don't want to jump to conclusions but a 14 year old should be well over the minimum height requirement. Perhaps the restraint was not tight enough. We complain about being stapled into rides but this is why certain places insist on it.

    Best of the 6 Disney/Universal Orlando parks?

    Not been in 5 years but Hollywood Studios could have gone from worst to best with the introduction of Galaxy's Edge and the Toy Story stuff.

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    Tbf it's not a dig specifically at Exodus. I'm pretty hyped for it. Skyrush is my number 2 coaster but that is an exception as I usually prefer longer rides. I'm not a huge fan of Smiler but I'd say duration is the best thing about it. Also Twisted Colossus - does near enough the same thing...
