    New rides @ small parks

    I had a quick check of Brean's website and it seems the new coaster is this... lmao at them describing it as for thrill seekers

    Small News From The Theme Park Industry

    Do Alton offer any other free way to get around the park? I imagine for people with mobility issues the Skyride being closed could present a fair bit of an issue travelling around the park. From what I can see they offer paid buggies (£10a day) or paid mobility scooters (£25 a day) but I...

    Small News From The Theme Park Industry

    I came across this POV and had to share - hopefully this forum is an acceptable place for it :) It's a backyard coaster, but a pretty impressive one. I'd seen videos of it but had never watched onride footage - until now. I think some of you might enjoy it in all its jankiness.

    Best night rides...

    I was lucky enough to get a Beast night ride last summer - they closed the ride while the fireworks show was on, and re-opened around 11pm or so - with everyone in the queue cheering as the first train went out. Hurtling through forest in the pitch black with practically no lights anywhere...

    Rank the B&M Hyper coasters

    I only have a few creds but here's my current ranking for these: Diamondback Silver Star Shambhala Behemoth Nitro (Orion and Fury 325 are omitted due to the hyper technicality)

    Bellewaerde Park | Mundo Amazonia | Intamin Rapids & More | 2024

    Those supports are lovely - very organic/ plant-like. Looks great so far

    Two rides with the same layout: one great, one terrible

    Yeah on this theme I remember the SLC with new restraints at Energylandia was fine, while Flight Deck at Canada's Wonderland was genuinely atrocious even in the front row. Crazy variation in enjoyability tbh

    Holiday World | Good Gravy | Vekoma Family Boomerang | 2024

    RCDB has this down as $10m USD.... surely it couldn't cost that much?? A cute addition but I had no idea these were so expensive damn.

    Cedar Point | Top Thrill 2 | Triple Launch Renovation | 2024

    I'll be intrigued to see how capacity looks for this tbh- CP gets real busy so not sure how it'll handle the crowds. Is the three train prediction actually a thing.... because I can't imagine how it could be

    Rank the GCIs

    I've only been on four, but they're all great quality. 1. Mystic Timbers Perhaps the location helps here but it stood out most of the four I've ridden. Filled with fun twists and turns and airtime moments over water and through the forest - it's just a great woodie. 2. Troy It was a while ago...

    The North America biggie - 3rd July - 18th July

    So now that my big North America park trip with @Climb is over, I thought I’d write up a fairly brief trip report of the parks and notable creds. I know these are all parks that have been posted a lot - but these were entirely first visits for the both of us so hopefully may still be...
