    Small News From The Theme Park Industry

    Right, I'm surprised they're not scrapping Depth Charge while they're at it to help open up the front of the park, as the area after the dome currently feels fairly cramped. Not sure if this has been posted yet, but Attraction Source also just unearthed CG architectural renders of an updated...

    Whoever runs the next enthusiast event on Hyperia needs to try and pull a few strings, surely?

    Coastermojis - The Picture Guessing Game

    Inspired by the queueline games on Sunday, I've created a few new picture puzzles for you all to work out. Since we covered the parks fairly comprehensively during the live, here's some coasters to guess! Yes, some of these are more tenuous than others. Best of luck solving! I'll maybe...

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    Blimey, I don't think we could've had better luck timing the live. On either end of two long closures! Gutted for those who have been spited by it, really hope the park are able to sort the issues so they don't have a steel curtain-esque year-long nightmare on their hands (not that I expect them...

    "Big Mack and Fries" - Thorpe Park, 29th September 2024

    Two days later and I think I'm finally fully recovered. Thank you all for such a great day! Having been so long since my last park visit (not sure if I mentioned that to anyone?????) I was worried that I wouldn't enjoy it as much anymore but it was a blast and I want to thank you all for being...

    "Big Mack and Fries" - Thorpe Park, 29th September 2024

    Adding myself to this last minute! Been a very long time since my last live but I'm yet to get up to ride this beast so why not? Looking forward to seeing you all! How many pop badges make for a suitable raffle prize? I may have an excess of them.

    Chessington World of Adventures holding public consultation regarding “current proposals and new developments” - potential new attraction?

    I mean.. the shape of this patch of grass alone screams Minecraft, surely? Would be an odd design choice if not. How long before someone pre-creates this new land in Minecraft?

    Good to know that ”closed indefinitely” sometimes just means "down for half an hour".

    Intamin Gyro Swing coming to Blackpool Pleasure Beach?

    I love a good massive swing! Sure, they're simple rides, but sometimes you just want to be chucked into the sky by a massive spinning pendulum with only a lap bar to hold you in. Plus, more flats! Parks need a good flat selection for variety and crowd management, and we've kinda been starved...

    Intamin Gyro Swing coming to Blackpool Pleasure Beach?

    Don't those have some sort of OTSR? Trust me when I say that lap bar makes all the difference.

    Intamin Gyro Swing coming to Blackpool Pleasure Beach?

    Well they already got their own version of liseberg's best coaster so why not nick their best flat too? Excellent choice, been hoping to see more of these get added.

    New development on the Slammer site at Thorpe Park?

    I was 100% gunning for this in that other thread but honestly, I'd rather they added something else to this site. If Thorpe ever built a Vortex 2.0 as it were, I would want them to pull a "Liseberg placing a screamin' swing halfway up their hill" and have guests swing over the lake. Potential...

    oh ofc, those lap bars are everything. The more rides with lap bars in the world, the better. Hey, just out of curiosity, does anyone know the average shelf life of a KMG Afterburner? I happen to know a park that has kept theirs for about 23 years now...

    I remember riding Loke in its opening year and thinking it was one of my favourite flat rides, so seeing more of these going up is fantastic. Would love to see one come to the UK at some point too!

    If Mack made a proposal for an inverting hyper with wacky elements.. I wonder if they used any of the ideas in that layout for another ride? Maybe one that just started testing?

    Universal considering UK theme park in Bedford

    I don't think that'd be a massive issue, especially if it's near the front of the park. Look at PortAventura using a Mediterranean seaside town as its hub or Europa and Phantasialand both opening up with Germany/Berlin, with Europa also placing nearby France at the front of the park. Having a...

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    The hangtime on some of those elements looks mental, though I'm guessing that'll change as the ride beds in and they make adjustments. Either way, it's fantastic to finally see this thing in motion.

    Walt Disney Studios Park further developments

    So the park's gone from having no real identity of its own... to having no real identity of its own. Can't wait to plan the road trip from World of Adventures in Chessington to Adventure World in Paris! What confuses me is that they've dropped any reference to the movies in the name but...
