    Is Hyperia your top UK coaster?

    That shouldn't be too hard - it's cold and wet most Tuesdays in Stoke ;)

    Is Hyperia your top UK coaster?

    I love Nemesis, rode it the year it opened and it was my number one UK coaster for 30 years, and my overall number one for a good number of years too. I will always have nostalgic love for it and it may always be my favourite UK cred. However, to say that Hyperia is not better in almost every...

    ^ I was one of those goons :D We spent the day at the park on Sunday and got 5 rides on Fianna Force. It was closed when we arrived though so we did the boomerang first. I've already done that layout at Farup Sommerland but having it intertwine with the STC and the castle theming definitely...

    They already tried that with their own woodie though, didn't they? ;) As for longest intertwined coasters in Europe based on their definition, surely Icon/Big One/Steeplechase/Big Dipper? wins that :D

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    But if it was open, all those queues would be half the length they are, because everyone would be queueing for Hyperia ;)

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    They are at least offering a free return visit due to today's issue. Not really much compensation for anyone that travelled a long distance for one thing only 😕 It also means the rest of the park is rammed now. At least the sun's out though!

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    Got 2 rides yesterday and only waited just over 2 hours each time as I decided to bide my time and ride everything else in the park first. Operations were great across the park as mentioned above and I waited less than 20 minutes for all the other rides. My first Hyperia ride was at 7pm and my...

    Agreed, this would be the best fit for the park I reckon.

    Flights booked for 16th June. Hope these don't have any teething problems 🤞 It's not like they are made by Zamperla so they should be fine :D

    Europa Park | Voltron | Mack Rides Stryker Coaster | 2024

    Honestly, even as an enthusiast I was seriously considering whether to bother queuing again after my first ride, and even more so when the second was almost as bad :(

    Europa Park | Voltron | Mack Rides Stryker Coaster | 2024

    Sorry to double post but just noticed this. My second ride was on train 1 and it was still how you described it above (though it was still not the worst one!) so they haven't fixed it that quickly as this was May 7th :(

    Europa Park | Voltron | Mack Rides Stryker Coaster | 2024

    Had my first visit to Europa on May 6-7th and managed to ride Voltron 3 times over the 2 days. The park was much busier than we expected it to be and the main queue was 60+ minutes all day, but my wife didn't want to ride so I used the SRQ each time. It took about 30 mins on average to get on...

    Legoland Windsor Future Developments

    They started letting people in at about 9:50 when we visited last Friday. They had areas closed off within the park though until 10.

    If you live in the UK, do you currently have a Merlin Annual Pass? Have you ever had one?

    I got my first Merlin pass (Silver) this year because of all the new creds at Merlin parks (including Mandrill that I didn't ride last year) and since I live close to Alton I should get a few visits there during the year. I bought it during the sale in November and went for the membership option...
