    New attractions at Paultons Park

    I'm a Roller Coaster geek, not a dark ride geek or a water ride geek. So while I agree that the gaps in their line-up are dark rides and water rides, the thing that would make me happiest (and most likely to go back) would be a new roller coaster, especially a wooden one. So that's what I told...

    YAY Merlin!

    Fully agree, and don't forget the new duelling shuttle coasters for Legoland 😀.

    Rank your Ridden B&M Inverts

    1) Nemesis - the one, the only. I think this will always be my "favourite" coaster even if it's no longer even in my top ten. 2) Afterburn - this just felt mighty, great ride. 3) Montu - looks amazing after it's paint job, and a very good ride. 4) OzIris - good theming, great ride. 5) Black...

    White Lightning or Mine Blower; which Fun Spot woodie do you prefer?

    Yeah I had one of my peak "we must be mad" moments leaving universal at 9:30pm after an amazing but exhausting day (a solid 12 hours of riding), and heading not to the hotel, but to another park 😅.

    Last Cred Review

    I have a massive desire to ride one of these just for the uniqueness, it looks like this fair ended on Sunday, does anyone have any tips for finding out when and where this one is likely to pop up again?

    White Lightning or Mine Blower; which Fun Spot woodie do you prefer?

    I just rode them both for the first time last week, they're both great fun but Mine Blower is the clear winner for me, I thought it was brilliant from start to finish. People have been saying it's getting very rough, I found it fine but my friend found it unbearable so it's either my very high...

    SeaWorld Orlando | Pipeline: The Surf Coaster | B&M Surf Coaster | 2023

    No I sometimes do them if I get time but probably won't for this trip since all the parks I went to are very well known. Who knows, I might feel inspired sometime! Baby report - park was super quiet, we had to leave at 2pm to get to the airport but in that time we did: Manta x2 Kraken x3...

    Top 10(ish): 2024 Edition - page 124

    Guess where I've been on my holidays (and which airport I changed at on the way): 1) Velocicoaster It took several rides including some at night before I really fell in love with this one but by the end of the day there was no question it's my new #1. It's just the perfect ride, immersively...

    SeaWorld Orlando | Pipeline: The Surf Coaster | B&M Surf Coaster | 2023

    Does the word "pipeline" have some meaning I'm not aware of that has something to do with surfing? I associate it more with transportation of oil and gas...?

    Liseberg | Luna | Vekoma Family Boomerang | 2023

    How was it after 3 hours and 15 rides?

    Parc Astérix | Toutatis | Intamin Launch Coaster | 2023

    With a 2-car train? Looks more like a pull-through to me. Still, testing can't be far off.

    Lightwater Valley - Future?

    We all agree the odds are against it ever running again, but I wouldn't consider it confirmed until the scrap man (or woman) shows up. Social media responses to posts are pretty meaningless (different to social media announcements).

    Lightwater Valley - Future?

    There were no sign of the trains on 25th Aug, so within the last month. Train on the spur could either mean preparing to put the ride back into use, or preparing to scrap the ride and maybe put the station to another use. My money would bd on the latter but time will tell!

    Alton Towers' Next Big Thing?

    Yeah my first thought was that it was a goon wind-up, but in that case I would have expected some actual content to the comment. But yeah the chances of it actually being JW are pretty slim.

    Alton Towers' Next Big Thing?

    The application now has one public comment uploaded, seemingly from a certain Mr John Wardley. The comment reads: Not sure what to make of that...!?
