    Wild Mouse at BPB Closure - R.I.P. 1958-2017

    Has anyone seen this on BPB's Vampire Beach 2018 webpage? https://www.blackpoolpleasurebeach.com/whats-on/vampire-pleasure-beach/

    Liseberg | Valkyria | B&M Dive Coaster

    Valkyria is really fun, an impressive first drop followed by a fun, floaty layout. It isn't forceful or intense, but just really good fun. Also flying through the blue mist at night is amazing.

    Alton Towers | Wicker Man | GCI Wood

    IMO, Wicker Man is a much stronger coaster at the back. Generally I find the airtime moderate (it isn't really the purpose of the ride's layout), but I did experience what could be classed as ejector on the drop after the flat corner, back row at the end of a rainy day when it was absolutely...

    Liseberg | Valkyria | B&M Dive Coaster

    Out of interest, does Valkyria have a single rider queue as was previously suggested?

    Cedar Point | Steel Vengeance | RMC I-Box (Mean Streak Conversion)

    It looks like there has been another incident on Steel Vengeance; https://www.themeparkinsider.com/flume/201808/6228/

    Alton Towers | Wicker Man | GCI Wood

    I don't always agree with what ATI says but why is there the need to be so degrading and rude when he's simply sharing a video? That isn't acceptable surely?

    I'm very much looking forward to riding this now, the shop, station and surrounding area look fantastic. https://www.facebook.com/ThemeParksEU/

    Blackpool Pleasure Beach | Icon | Mack Multi-Launch

    I've read on another forum that they closed an hour early today, yet it was sunny and reasonably warm.

    I understand that BPB have once again taken the decision to close two hours earlier than advertised today, due to weather.

    Alton Towers | Wicker Man | GCI Wood

    Could it maybe be an issue caused by the changed gradient on the lifthill? It would potentially explain why it hasn't happened on other GCI's.

    Kennywood | Steel Curtain | S&S Multi-looper

    Forgive me for being a bit clueless, but this isn't replacing Phantom's Revenge is it?

    It's almost like they planned this!

    Britain and Mediocrity

    I agree entirely, even if last rides weren't possible due to the ride not being able to operate, there are much better and more respectful ways that they have gone about it than tearing it down and hoping that nobody would notice. It's a weird situation as I do continue to visit, because I love...

    Wicker Man or Icon? Which is the most significant for the UK?

    Wicker Man, because it's a new wooden coaster and the public love it, therefore proving the Merlin "research" stating that the public viewed them as unsafe as complete rubbish. Of course, both are fantastic quality additions at their respective parks, and I personally prefer Icon.

    Britain and Mediocrity

    Wild Mouse, because despite other parks having the biggest coasters, or the best theming, it gives the UK something completely different that cannot be found anywhere else, and the airtime is unprecedented. If a park was lucky enough to have a ride as unique as this, they would definitely be...

    Crossing my fingers for it being ready at the end of August, but even that isn't looking likely at the moment.

    Wild Mouse at BPB Closure - R.I.P. 1958-2017

    Replacing a 1958 heritage thrill wooden coaster with an arcade?! :( THIS. Pleasure Beach, IMO, need to remember what makes them special and sets the place apart from other parks. Any park with a budget and space can build a new ride, but BPB was one of the only parks in the world to have a...

    Wild Mouse at BPB Closure - R.I.P. 1958-2017

    On my last visit to BPB the FY4 balcony was open, which meant that these views were possible :( The same spot last year; I still haven't forgiven them for this!

    Blackpool Pleasure Beach | Icon | Mack Multi-Launch

    I found the rattle to just be a noise, rather than actually affecting the ride experience. I don't think it's an issue really, anyone heard some of the noises The Smiler makes? :emoji_astonished:
