    Rollercoaster anxiety

    As someone else mentioned you should build your way up, I know you already mentioned you've been on the rides before but treat it like it's your first time I would recommend this order runaway mine train > spinball > thirteen > wickerman > Galatica > nemesis > smiler > oblivion and then maybe go...

    Galactica: General Discussion

    I don't think Galatica would get the nemesis treatment when that time comes myself, I love the ride and I have a soft spot for it even just listening to the air soundtrack gives me a very joyful sense of nostalgia. With it being 22 years old I'd imagine it probably has a good 10 years left, I...

    Galactica: General Discussion

    Yea looks like graffiti probably done when the park wasn't open and gates were just open for rollercoaster restaurant, that would be my guess. Either way Galatica needs a big spruce up preferably a retheme and as it's been mentioned a lot recently it doesn't fit in more than ever.

    [2024] Thorpe Park: Hyperia - Mack Hypercoaster

    Currently the only way thorpe has advertised it is if you spend £100 on merchandise you can buy a £20 single shot or if you buy the £200 unlimited fast track you can buy a £20 single shot or stay in the hyperia room in the shart cabins and get one complimentary. However long it'll be like that...

    Nemesis Reborn: General Discussion

    There's always been a slight rattle and weird vibration since they switched to hard wheels on the smiler but its never impacted the enjoyment of the ride experience for me hell I even love the exit of the cobra roll and double corkscrew at the end. But that could be the reason why I don't find...

    [2024] Thorpe Park: Hyperia - Mack Hypercoaster

    I wouldn't worry too much yet, I remember on the planning documents there was some guidelines that stated they needed a minimum of 27.5 days testing and we still have 48 days to go but they do really need to start soon because who knows how testing will go. How's the landscaping and queue lines...

    Potential New Universal UK Park

    479 acres is a very big plot of land they could stick a portaventura sized park in there and still have 185 acres to play with.

    Which of Alton Towers’ coasters is roughest?

    For me it's got to be Rita, this is quite a subjective reason though, I'm a little over the height restriction so my shoulders and chest are hard-pressed into those restraints so I feel every little jolt and those corners wipe me out, leaves me with bruises so I never ride it anymore. Which is...

    Nemesis Reborn: General Discussion

    I mean smilers construction was completely cursed but it was a feat of engineering making a long track layout THAT compact, nemesis on the other hand that was 20 years prior and if I'm not wrong the ground before construction was just a flat plot of land, the fact they blew a massive pit in the...

    PortAventura: General Discussion

    I hate to be that guy but I'm going to portaventura on the 16th and also maybe the 17th does anyone know if this is typically a busy time to go, is there any holidays in Spain around this time? My flight to Reus airport won't get there until 21:05 the night before I'm wondering if there's any...

    Cadbury World - Merlin Take Over

    Allegations mixed with twitter and screenshots doesn't mean all that much in this day and age but without going too off topic I agree with the video that it's a fine bonus to have added into the experience I just hope cadabara has plans and they do it justice, I'm sure some of the younger kids...

    Food & Beverage: The Aramark Era begins

    I used holiday club for 2 nights at the Alton towers hotel and never got asked for my code in the booking and never got asked for it whilst checking in even though I didn't check in online and checked in the old school way (I much prefer it that way) I'm not advising anyone to try and abuse it...

    [2024] Thorpe Park: Hyperia - Mack Hypercoaster

    Yea I mean hyperia's track length is 476 feet more than collosus and 915 feet longer than nemesis reborn's track length to put it into perspective I think it'll be a similar duration to nemesis which is the most beloved rollercoaster in the country but we've already discussed this to death. I...

    Planning applications for new Scarefest maze locations

    I've mentioned it before but the new CEO Scott O'Neil said he wants to bring a taste of the large scale Halloween events they have in the states to the UK, which would mean scarefest getting a overhaul to be even comparable, I'm still keeping expectations realistic and they can't pat their backs...

    2024: General Discussion

    Similar thing happened to me with thorpe park single shot scare mazes, I don't have auto updates on and I think it's more likely to happen if it's not up to date, I had a back and forth with guest services and basically got told I was sh*t out of luck I then just went to the entrance told the...
