My home park is Blackpool pleasure Beach, I would love to see a gerst bob on the old wild mouse/trauma towers site, failing that a GCI/gravity group woody on the bowlodrome site using the dead space behind too.
I disagree, it means the experience lacks the cohesion and immersion factor it once did, i remember going in 95/6 ish when i was a small kid, there were storm clouds brewing ahead rain lashing down. seeing the blood red water was genuinely terrifying and really made the coaster that much more...
The idea of pre-booking has only been around since attendance was capped due to covid. who knows whether it will disappear again once things are back to "normal" for the times this pass is valid for "off peak" i've not had any issues booking tickets as close as the day of the visit with . And...
In my opinion its just a case of merlin operating the "south parks" on a shoestring in order to maximize profits. if you take duplo dino out of the equation:
Thorpe park : 8 seasons no new coaster
Chessington: 16 seasons no new coaster
Legoland: 16 seasons without a "major" new coaster.

Given that nemesis often has one of the smallest queues in the park this surprises me, yes it has cult status amongst enthusiasts and for good reason, But it doesn't have the pull for the G.P that it once did. This is in part due to it having a good capacity, but I just cant imagine a standard...
It doesn't really solve the affordability issue but i would love for someone to bring a truly winged train design to a hypercoaster, yes the space required would be Huge but i think the height would really lend itself well to the large swooping transition of a wing model.

2) Wickerman, great theatrics and theming and being a modern wooden coaster completely unique on the UK scene. I wish it was bigger and bolder but that...

It's just such a bizarre investment and not in an interesting way, maybe 10 years ago it would have been exciting. I'm An hour away and don't even know if I can be bothered. On the other hand I'm practically salivating at the the prospect of a 5 hour drive to experience tornado springs ?
Yeah I don't hold out much hope of this riding like anything other than a shopping trolley being pushed down a hill. Id happily be proven wrong since its 90 miles from my house but...
They certainly are smoother. However they are super intense and compact which isn't always the best combination in terms of enjoyability for alot of people.
