1. The Smiler
Longest ride and possibly the flagship ride. John Wardley's aim was to top Nemesis and I think he achieved that!
2. Wicker Man
Brilliant coaster with some of the best theming in the country and a well-done pre-show.
3. Nemesis
Brilliant but starting to show its age. I find the restraints uncomfortable because they are loose when I leave the station and tighten on the first drop. But despite this the ride is one of the most intense I have been on.
4. Oblivion
Also starting to show its age but the ride still intimidates despite newer and bigger models existing.
5. Galactica
Could have been done a lot better with theming in the tunnel and the theming John Wardley created that was cut. Galactica refresh seemed a bit half-done as it was clearly just an excuse to try VR.
6. Rita
Nice but they could have done more with it. E.g Theming and maybe an actual station.
7. TH13TEEN
Again could have been done a lot better. No trims, marketing not ridiculously over-hyped.
8. Spinball Whizzer
Area just seems a little unloved and doesn't quite fit with the rest of the park. Could do with a proper station and some TLC.
9. Runaway Mine Train
Not a bad coaster but showing its age. Towers too heavily reliant on this ride in its family line-up.
10. Octonauts Rollercoaster Adventure
Could have been done a lot better, they could have made a bigger coaster with a higher capacity by using the land behind the Spinball photo booth.
