Paultons Park: General Discussion

Looks very short and a bit tame, but they were never going to build a thrill machine.
They've got a great opportunity to deliver the best family coaster in the UK if they go to town on the theming, and from what we are seeing on social media I'm sure this will be the case.

Paultons are buying sensible rides for the customers their particular park attracts.
Expanding their family offering into things for slightly older kids is the right move for them. It will be a few years, if ever, until they should go near the big thrill attraction market. The likes of Disney show how you can make whole parks without any major thrill rides.
An on site Hotel must be on the cards for them in the next few years. Bacon butties for breakfast, with Peppa Pig walking around the restaurant could make for some interesting family chats.

Sierra Sidewinder was awfully slow and dull, a really very poor ride even for a kiddie end of a family coaster. As awesome as it'd be I'm not expecting a time traveller style inverting monster of a ride the art hints at, I really hope it's not a clone of this though.
Something in between please...

Looks to me like one of those kids drops rides like Phantasialand,Europa, etc have (which are actually really good!), looks like it will be called “Windmill Towers”.

That announcement video is absolutely superb.
I thought so too. Very good quality for such a small family ran park. Not too cheesy and straight to the point.
I hope they give it a bit of the old route 66 theming too, only with the tornado aspect. I love that American look. It could look brilliant if it's done well.
