Well thanks for that guys, well about chessington, I have a sister that is 6 and she wanted to go to chessington , so I could either choose TP or Chessie, and well chessie only has dragons fury ( which I found awesome ) And the vampire which I have rode over 20+ times so Thorpe was the outright winner. And due to the fact that we arnt going in the holidays it would be impossible to fit it in.
And as for alton it is a possibility at this moment, my mum would love to go back too and I don't have birthday parties anymore so that could be it, just a little day or two out with my mate at Alton, brilliant. It would be around September time. I have been there before when I was 6, that's when I found my love for coasters, the corkscrew.It may have been rough but I didnt care, it was the first time I had ever experienced being upside down with just a lap bar for protection , it was one heck of a ride.
I had been on coasters from a young age, due to my auntie who I wouldn't say had a love for them but , was an adrenalin junky :L I rode vampire when i was 4, I came off saying I'm never doing that again, but at the end of the day when it was just before closing time I rode again and I new that the vampire would be my fav ride for years.
Next when I was 5 I was tricked onto going on tidal wave, my auntie said we would be going on a boat ride under it, but when I heard that lift hill clunk I shouted no!! , I came off drenched but I was amazed that I hadent cried, so was my mum.
After that we didn't go back To TP till I was 9 and that year stealth had been built, I said to myself I would do all the big rides(colossus nemisis and stealth) but when I looked at stealth I thought no way! It was higher than It had seemed, I had watched a pov of the rides before I came, I turned down both stealth and colossus , but nemisis inferno was a different story... I entered the cue absolutely crapping myself. When we started climbing the hill I remembered saying to myself " it's just like corkskrew, I might like it" when I got off I felt sick but estatic I had ridden it at such a young age, even today I dont rate it that highly, It felt rough ( can't believe I'm saying that about a B&M coaster but it was true) ... that would be the last time I would visit Thorpe park.
when I moved from Essex to county Durham I had lost my love for coasters, I had forgotten all the great memories I had. And then I met liam, after a few months he asked me to toto LWV with him, I accepted but with no idea of what the park was like.. When we arrived he told me to run with him to the ultimate, I said is it good? He said you either love it or you hate it but he said it was epic, and indeed he was right. It may not be the most exciting coaster ever, but the drops and the quick turns, they blew me away! We didn't ride anything else that day 14 rides on the ultimate, pretty good ehh
, I worked it out,I have ridden the ultimate more than 40 times and to this day it is my fav coaster that I have ridden!
2010 came and I was on a school trip to Disneyland Paris for 3 days! I had heard of space mountain, it was my first looper for around about 3 and a half years and boy did I like it! Might not be the best coaster ever but was pretty cool anyhow. Managed 8 rides on space mountain before heading over to indianna jones.
It didn't like this at all! It was like rattlesnake but with a loop, very lame in my opinion.
And the next day brought us the studious and the R&Rollercoaster ft areosmith. Boy! I loved it , i would rate it 2nd behind the ultimate, rode that 12 times in one day.
Now as you can see I don't like relaxing walks to rides, I'm more of a person that if I like ride, it takes a while to get me away from it.
And I would choose mingoland over LWV because I have never been there before. Kumali and velocity look awesome and the corkscrew might bring some memories of the Alton towers one
I am soo looking forward to this year finally a coaster year!
And I would like to say thankyou to Coasterforce for getting me hooked again on these beautiful machines.
Please reply as this took me one hour to write on and iPod-touch
Thanks -George Benson-
