Firmly in the 'loving it' camp.
Just what Blighty desperately needs - a decent sized, quality thrill coaster that doesn't sell itself on naff, 'world first' gimmicks, but still featuring many 'UK first' elements.
If I was being uber picky, a bit more height woulda nice, maybe? We all know height isn't everything, but come on... you gotta admit, it's quite nice to have it thrown into the mix sometimes, right?
Personally, I'd have thrown in a couple more inversions too. Not talking Smiler here, but maybe one or two of those gorgeous Helix style corkscrews?
But what the hell.
It'll be awesome. Like Helix, it'll be better than it looks. I'm sure we'll see some higher quality renderings in the coming months, showing the interactions and the tunnels and the surroundings etc...
Excitement levels can only go up from here.
Bring it on!
