I rode it when I visited this season. My son is neurodiverse and chooses not to ride the other attractions in Forbidden Valley, he liked Blade as he felt comfortable riding it and it was a bit of a reward for him for traipsing all the way down to FV and waiting for us whilst myself and my daughter got a ride in on Galactica and Nemzy. Sometimes we'd get a ride on Blade as we entered the area and then another one on the way out. Such a pity it is going without being replaced with some other family friendly ride.Genuine question...
Did any of you ride Blade this season?
It didn't seem very well.
That said, it's one of the simplest rides to replace and should have been.
Edit - Thinking about it, as well as these family rides like Enterprise, Blade, and Flavio's leaving the park there's also the situation with Duel. Since it was rethemed to Curse it's arguably had it's target age range slightly raised as it's a little bit scarier than it was when you were blasting cheesy targets. My kids both don't want to go on Curse as they are a bit scared of it's theme now as it seems more frightening to them than when it was Duel. For a family friendly park there really is a worrying trend of removing the family friendly or junior thrill attractions.
