Oblivion: General Discussion

[AltonLover123]

It could do with an industrial batch of Cillit Bang But I totally agree ,It should next be on the agenda for a refresh, The Oblivion queueline is looking very tired and the glass blocks before "the cages" look like 1980s toilet decor

Yeah. I would want them to keep the concept of the theme. I don’t think going balls to the wall of a change is needed. The theme works. People are still terrified of the ride and the concept works. Just make it new, fresh and better

Granted: reprofiling Oblivion might be a costly job, but a cheaper enhancement they could make would be to add lap bars to The Smiler at Alton Towers, as well as to Colossus at Thorpe Park (assuming that these modifications are possible) – even if it was only on one of the trains! (I believe there is a ride somewhere that has different restraint types on each train)

I don't think lapbars are possible on either, as the tight clerances mandate it (when in a lap bar, you can move you whole upper body allowing you to reach further) perhaps you could get away with vest restraints on oblivion, but they have their own problems.
