On Gardaland's open late, close rides early thing. I'm pretty sure it's only like that for another week as from the 30th of June the closing time of the rides will change.

It's been a lot better recently, they've definitely retracked some of it and a non-wheel seat isn't the worst ride ever, definitely give it another go next time you head there.

Nash is alright if you get the middle row of a car, so a non wheel seat. Pretty good mantra to live by on woodies with 3 row cars tbh, there are obvious exceptions of course.

The sad thing is that apart from Cedar Point, none of the parks would get near my top 5 parks in the US. Dollywood, Silver Dollar City, Busch Gardens Williamsburg, Busch Gardens Tampa, Universal IOA and Hersheypark are all leagues above. I have zero confidence they will make the parks good...

I'll try to rank the bottom 10, it's difficult as they are all absolutely crap. 711 - G-Force - Drayton Manor - For obvious reasons, that lift was disgusting, and combined with the restraints 🤮 712 - Infusion - Blackpool - Personally my worst of the SLCs, but Condor and T3 were up there 713 -...

Yeah I did G force, that was vile too, but again, beginning of the ride and the rest was alright so doesn't make the bottom 5, it's down there though. Skyloops are a good shout, the one at Linnanmaki was horrid, probably in the bottom 10. Quite liked Abismo once the lift/roll was done though...

The jolt at the end is really bad and it's surprisingly rattly in the 2nd half of the ride, but the drop and immelman are pretty good. Very surprising this got signed off, but the park really needs the uptick in attendance so I'm guessing they decided the roughness/jolts were within an...

I put this in the worst 5 coasters topic; "I absolutely hated it mate. 4 sustained hangtime moments is way too many, 1 is fine, 2 is gross, 3 is disgusting, 4 is unacceptable. I honestly would prefer to ride nearly anything than touch it again." Anyone who knows me knows that sustained hang is...

Copperhead Strike is the worst cred at Carowinds. Worse than Nighthawk, worse than Vortex, worse than their rattly kiddy Vekoma, worse than their kiddy creds, worse than their boomerang. Despise it. Only beaten to worst operating cred in the US by Thunderbolt.

I absolutely hated it mate. 4 sustained hangtime moments is way too many, 1 is fine, 2 is gross, 3 is disgusting, 4 is unacceptable. I honestly would prefer to ride nearly anything than touch it again.

Hit 700 while in the states, timed it well with Harry getting the same cred for his milestone too!

This needs a holy Batman bump (unless there's a more recent version) Bottom 5 - In no particular order King - Foire du Trône Insane - Grona Lund Copperhead Strike - Carowinds Thunderbolt - Luna Park Coney Island Mean Streak - Cedar Point Meaning that there are/were actually creds out there...

A few other goons went at the weekend and loved it so I'm very much looking forward to visiting in August. Hopefully a bit more of the theming and grounds will have been tidied up, as it will likely be my only visit in a while.

As with Howie above, going to put my new creds in and any rerides that are worth mentioning. 8 full park days and every single one had an amazing coaster, really did well with this trip. Day 1 Dorney/Knoebels I'd been to both parks before so only needed Iron Menace. Not the worst Dive...

Most likely yes, but there isn't much track so most of it is ground level work. They still have the "opening in summer" facades up, and there was a lot of workers on site. If it's not open in August I could see them delaying it to next year.

As of 2 days ago, still doing significant groundwork on the far end. At least 6 weeks I reckon.

Rode Hurricane at fun spot yesterday and I honestly thought we were derailing, then the restraints opened as we were reaching the unload area. How that thing is allowed to operate I do not know, another one for the list of never ride again.

Been on some decent ones over the last few years so; 1 - Lech 2 - F.L.Y 3 - Hals-uber-Kopf 4 - Formula 5 - Colorado Adventure 6 - Stunt Fall The rest are much of a muchness. But I am looking forward to riding Big Bear Mountain, Fonix, Fianna Force and some of the other newer thrill versions.

Have a great time @Hixee 🤌
