Hi guys. Even though it's not my personal favourite UK coaster, I've noticed that from talking to a number of enthusiasts, Nemesis still seems to be the "general favourite" so to speak among enthusiasts in this country, so I'd be intrigued to know; what would your favourite UK coaster be if Nemesis didn't exist? What is your favourite non-Nemesis UK coaster? For some idea of context, Nemesis is presently my 3rd favourite UK coaster; here is my present UK top 5: Icon The Swarm Nemesis Wicker Man Nemesis Inferno If I were to extend to a UK top 10, it would look like this: Icon The Swarm Nemesis Wicker Man Nemesis Inferno Megafobia Stealth Galactica Oblivion Nickelodeon Streak So my answer to this question is Icon, which is my favourite UK coaster anyway. But what is your favourite non-Nemesis UK coaster?
You're right Matt. NEMMIE is my favourite, and there would be a huge gap between my first and second place. It's difficult to choose a second favourite, but here goes... Second - Smiler Joint thirds WIckerman Grand National Odyssey 13 Oblivion Icon It may seem a cop out, but I love them all... And my all time worst coaster... I'm looking at you, Hero!
Am I the only person on this forum to prefer the Smiler to Nemesis? Anyway, my top 5 1. The Smiler 2. Pepsi Max Big One 3. The Swarm 4. Saw 5. Oblivion
This is a tough one! At the minute I think my top 5 would be this. 1. Icon 2. Wickerman 3. The Smiler 4. Oblivion 5. Grand National But yeah, Nemesis would sit well and truly at the top for me, for so many reason - many personal memories, but also just for it's timeless quality.
Stealth or Oblivion for me. Both short rides but both do exactly what they say on the tin and pack a real punch. It should have been Icon but BPB and Mack somehow messed up.
Galactica (without VR obviously) Wickerman Oblivion Icon Swarm Nemesis Inferno Megafobia Wipeout (really just for nostalgia reasons)
1) Vampire 2)swarm 3)Nemesis Inferno 4)rattlesnake 5)oblivion Not really a ride but use to love the action man thing at chessington as a kid
