So they actually closed the ride (whatever happens to it next) without saying a word ahead of time. No doubt well aware of the spreading rumor discussion. Wow.

It was a bit ludicrous. A nice geeky touch to have it on full display (no doubt cheaper too) but my word it was intense when standing near by.

There's no recovering from this now. No plans currently in place although I wonder what I could suddenly do to end the year on a high note. '25 better be the best rebound year ever 😄

It's ludicrous they wouldn't market any closing ride and milk a fair well event. Fanboys would want formal notice to ride anything one last time. As big as Green Lantern is and the impressive stats on paper and isolation, it doesn't leave much of a hole in a massive park over saturated with...

Inflatable as always RCDB I love you.

Quavers 🤣 I really gotta get out and try this thing. Most photos don't make it look like an amazing ride but that lighting is special.

How was it?

I agree it's not a smooth ride, but would you complain if Merlin marketed MM as the UKs only 4D coaster? I've not noticed this on West Coast Racers before. The helix bowl of a support structure is a mega WWS, could be a concept model of a stadium super structure. Image from Coaster101

Empty test trains were crawling through the track on this Sundays live. All the more glad we got rides that day between this and the prior maintenance.

I got somewhat lucky with a small local fun fair having 2 minor coasters, front and back row between them and one was actually new to me. They are not listed as being at this location anywhere I can see, even the fair was hard to find any specific info on beyond dates. I considered adding to...

There was a smaller accelerator already converted to LSM when moving parks. I wonder who did that 🤔 Checks RCDB and oh look it's Zamperla who updated ThunderVolt

I've come to appreciate moments of peace, at the beach or pool. But the aim is mostly achieve as much as possible. Make the most of the time, destination and new surroundings.

I had a great fast-pass-less day at Port Aventura back in May but assumed it was a fluke. Would have been an even better way with the pass but was able to save on a tight budget. Maybe they have started to turn things around but I'll want to see more reports confirming improvements. Also...

People stay over at all kinds of parks. Park hopping would also add up throughout a resort. Its a sign that people want to be there and the company provides a compelling option.

Any post on the London resort thread is also a part of that.

This makes me think twice about asking friends with kids to take me. Is the Antelope cred worth the loss of trust 🤔
