It shouldn't need to come down to that tbf. If the restraint is locked in and the ride is able to dispatch I think it's fair for the ride staff to assume its good to go. Just a tragic design flaw it seems.

My experience was mostly negative and turned out to be a pretty miserable time in my life. I worked in sales/business development role at a Merlin attraction during its construction. It was an unfamiliar role to them and they seemed to make it up as they went along. Turns out it's quite hard...

Unbelievable. Don't want to jump to conclusions but a 14 year old should be well over the minimum height requirement. Perhaps the restraint was not tight enough. We complain about being stapled into rides but this is why certain places insist on it.

Not been in 5 years but Hollywood Studios could have gone from worst to best with the introduction of Galaxy's Edge and the Toy Story stuff.

@Thecoasterrus nice sign 😂

Tbf it's not a dig specifically at Exodus. I'm pretty hyped for it. Skyrush is my number 2 coaster but that is an exception as I usually prefer longer rides. I'm not a huge fan of Smiler but I'd say duration is the best thing about it. Also Twisted Colossus - does near enough the same thing...

Really? Just suggests to me that Thorpe should fork out for some extra length. There are pills available apparently 👀 Long coasters are never a negative.

Yeah they were a decent band @Howie Quite similar to Royal Blood as a modern comparison.

Name: El Lolo Manufacturer: Intamin 🤷‍♀️ Drop: 120ft Max Speed: 62mph Length: 3721ft Inspired by El Toro but with a more twisted second half. Used the lift hill structure for some high speed head chopper sections. Quite pleased with the length and pacing considering the modest height.

The first drop could well be up there with Skyrush for airtime. Looks wild. The length is an issue, shame Merlin are so tight. Just as well they didn't go with B&M really, on their budget it could have been one of the worst hypers out there.

I think I may be in this same boat. For years now I've randomly recalled a safari type ride from when I was younger and for the life of me have never been able to identify it. @Serena 's description of it being rough has me convinced it must be this one. Are there any pics or videos of the...

As you may have seen in the trip planning forum, I have been away in California for the last 11 days or so. Initially we planned to hire a car and travel up to Yosemite and/or San Fransico. However due to time contraints we eventually opted to add an extra day at Disney and then Six Flags which...

Nothing to add except @BenJacobs post looks oddly satisfying on my device.

1. @Niles Fast, snappy, lots of airtime. Looks like a longer version of Storm Chaser at Hersheypark. 2. @Nicky Borrill Fast and aggressive like Maverick, with a hint of Taron. 3. @Rollercoaster David Long and smooth layout. Good variety of Inversions. 4. @Matt N Nice long ride with good airtime...

I quite like the ragdoll technique. Hang loose and let the ride wallop me.

Taron by a considerable distance. Still a top 5 coaster for me whereas FLY would be top 40-30 at a push. FLY is an incredible all round experience though.

Don't think it looks slow tbh in fact quite the opposite. Also back row POV's >>>> Front row POV's
