    Which UK Coaster Has The Most Airtime?

    As above. I don't actually know and it occurred to me that I also have no process for figuring it out? What do we think?

    Movie Park Germany | Movie Park Studio Tour | Intamin Multi Dimension Coaster | 2021

    Parks make me laugh when they're like 'it's for the environment!' Let's be real, it's because you will save hundreds of thousands of Euros a year in printing costs. That's the truth of the matter. I am for this to be honest, it's a digital world now so makes complete sense. I would say they...

    Real Madrid World | Hala Madrid | GCI Wooden Hybrid Coaster | 2024

    Hmm Ok so when this was announced my initial fear was oh, hope they don't ruin the stunning aesthetics of the park by just plonking the rides down. Obviously this is an aerial shot whilst still in construction phase so I'm bearing that in mind, but I am worried. The park is sooo gorgeous, namely...

    Hansa Park Announce 2 New Attractions for 2020

    Looks stunning, nothing less than what I would expect from Hansa Park. Random re the name, I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks 'Curse' sounds way cooler than 'Escape'. I trust the park though, I'm sure they have their reasons!

    Slowest and fastest coaster braking systems?

    Two immediately spring to mind. Firstly Thunder Dolphin. I remember whizzing through the Tokyo skyline and thinking, 'the station is literally there, how are we going to stop?' then SLAM. Stopped. Secondly the infamous BROMS!! on Lisbergbanan. Hurtling full speed into brakes so harsh they need...

    Small News From The Theme Park Industry

    Oh nooo that's sad! Any ideas why they decided to bin it? I didn't ride it when we visited because I generally don't love drop towers, but those who did ride said it was extremely clunky so I wonder if it had just gotten to the point of no return in terms of maintenance? Iconic ride for the park...

    Music Recommendations

    So I've recently decided to put actual effort into listening to new (well, for me anyway) music instead of listening to the same 20 tracks from 2007 over and over again. So here's some things I've been enjoying recently: I'm obsessed with Pale Waves. They manage to sound 90s yet modern at the...

    Emerald Park News/Discussion

    So pleased for them! And after riding the Tripsdrill counterparts I am now even more excited for this because Hals-uber-Kopf is fantastic.

    Plopsaland de Panne | The Ride to Happiness | Mack Xtreme Spinning Coaster | 2021

    Oh god I hope it is slowed down substantially! This is so weird but I'm actually kind of nervous about riding this?

    Most effective gimmick on an attraction?

    River Quest - elevator lift hill and drop reveal. Fantastic gimmick. Any drop track coaster, but mostly Thirteen and Verbolten. Any attraction with an 'OMG WE'RE GOING BACKWARDS?!' moment (Chiapas springs to mind most prevalently). Ghosts following you home on Haunted Mansion. A classic but...

    Flamingo Land | Sik | Intamin 10 Inversion Coaster | 2022

    Oof, OK wow, that's not sounding great at all. I wanted to go last year but obviously didn't because the new thing wasn't open, looks like I'll be putting it off again for this year too. Yorkshire is a huge effort for me to get to and I'm already not the hugest fan of Flamingoland so I've been...

    Do you have any theme park guilty pleasures?

    This entire post is extremely relatable. Indoor water-rides give me serotonin.

    Top 10(ish): 2024 Edition - page 124

    Double post hello. So following on from the above I took some time to do a deep dive. Here's what I found: Quickly scrolling through my coaster count list, I marked coasters I thought fit that 'coasters of note' category, based on the following criteria: - Do I have fond memories of this...

    Top 10(ish): 2024 Edition - page 124

    Yh, was going to say even the idea of doing a 'Top 100' isn't an idea that fills me with joy if I'm honest haha, although I DO like Serena's approach of identifying 'coasters of note' to whittle it down and going from there. Might give it a bash tomorrow.

    Coaster-Count Poll

    Ooh very interesting results. Pleased to see Joris en de Draak and Hyperion both break Top 15 of their respective categories, they're both underrated in my opinion (Hyperion gets overshadowed by the in my opinion inferior Zadra and people seem to sleep on Joris). One of the more interesting...

    That Savages music video is just so great I love it XD And how odd something like this hasn't been done before seeing how synonymous horror movies and metal are... Added to my list of new things I need to pay attention to. I miss my commute...
