i meant these specifically tbh :p

I think it could be a huge miss to not bring over the main Orlando IPs Most people can barely afford overseas holidays let alone to spend money of part of their once in a lifetime/one every 10 year holiday on buying tickets to universal Orlando. Having them in the UK would be such a major thing...

The element/airtime hill/whatever it is after the drop looks rediculous in the best way

I think depending on the landscaping the queue could be.. ok? I think Colossus & NI's queues are as best you get at thorpe purely because the trees and going under the coasters give at least a tad of escapism.. it's a shame instead of the cattlepen they couldn't have the queue follow a similar...

the plans do mention climber plants for the queue line

train update: no train :p

my bad I always assumed pull throughs were to make sure there wasn't any warped sections of track or something that would damage the train 🤣

Don't they need to do a pull through with one of the cars before testing also?

I remember on the quiet days of back when they had fright night on non half term weekdays it used to run insanely on the longest setting

is 0:23 sped up or is the lift hill now on crack? 🙈

am i wrong in thinking it's meant to look like that as they've painted it like that as the step before it's black coat?

I read the part about tidal wave's fire effect as 'but we have given up!' at first 🤣

Yeah i think they had planned to make use of the other island sooner

a year or 2 difference will still look better on either side than the 20+ year aged paint it was before so it's still a win 🙈

Do we know if the trains are on site? I assume the construction was slightly delayed due to all those storms but surprised we haven't seen them arrive yet despite that

Is this possibly one of the most complex support builds in a long time? I mean the amount of supports in the lift/drop/stall/Immelmann thing is insane :p Even building it piece by piece as a miniature I wouldn't know where to start, let alone with the muddy floor they're working with and trying...

that's a bit of an over exaggeration, its literally the smallest trim, i'd bet money even if it's installed you wont even notice it also the reason would be because the track banks on the pull up into the outerbank so they wouldn't be able to put a trim there

it makes sense, they would've mounted the trims to the brackets whilst being up there installing the track piece surely.. It's not unusual for a coaster to have faster running speeds than expected, correct me if I'm wrong? (in response to the bad design convo btw)
