    Biggest misnomers in the theme park industry

    The Ultimate, was in fact, not The Ultimate rollercoaster.

    Really sad news.

    Most Overrated Coasters You've Been On?

    I definately would never say my #1 or anything, but I found it a really special coaster. The theming is amazing, the experience of going through the queue and station ambience adds a lot to it. The ride experience itself, the transition to flying position is cool, and it just feels like a...

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    Depressing they had to destroy such a lovely area. Had so much character and then was slowly destroyed.

    Alton Towers | Nemesis Reborn | B&M Retrack | 2024

    I hope the track doesnt end up being just black. That's so dull. Nemesis was so unique for its track paint scheme.

    Universal's Epic Universe | Orlando USA | Theme Park

    I'll continue to dream that something similar to DisneySEA may one day get built in the US :'(

    WDW Magic Kingdom | Tron Lightcycle Power Run | Vekoma Motorbike Coaster | 2023

    Yesterday Disney posted a video showing the train riding through the area, with a new spiel recorded that includes Tron music/narration. Hinting that the railroad might open sooner than we thought, will give some exciting new views of Tron! https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cme5PwApnC6

    Most Overrated Coasters You've Been On?

    It is funny how opinions can vary so much! I absolutely loved GhostRider, I wasnt expecting much but just found its pacing and airtime to be impressive! For me i'd say Wicker Man at Alton Towers, it gets so much hype. It does look really impressive, but it could have done so much more in that...

    What are your favorite pieces of coaster merch?

    The ones I design and sell via my store CoasterMerch of course! (lol) But otherwise I was sad I missed out on this design. When I visited SFMM, I loved Twisted Colossus a lot, they had this design but only in like XXL size or something, i'm a small/medium. Couldnt find any other sizes, asked...

    What defunct coaster do you miss the most?

    Wild Mouse at BPB for me, always gave me a huge grin on my face the whole way around, it was the very definition of a "Wild Mouse". So unique, looked so awesome off the ride, fit in the space well. My heart sank when I heard the news that closed season that it'd been removed. Still get pissed...

    Alton Towers | Nemesis Reborn | B&M Retrack | 2024

    They need to add the Bose Wave Cannons to the ceiling like Nemesis inferno had, and an epic lighting package in there and it would be so cool.

    Phantasialand | F. L. Y. | Vekoma Launched Flying Coaster | 2020

    Yeah it was. I can do a trip report, I have a lot to say about the park. I was really really impressed by it, I didn't want to leave at the end.

    Phantasialand | F. L. Y. | Vekoma Launched Flying Coaster | 2020

    Been there and visited it now... Wow. What a fantastic ride. The area as a whole and the station of FLY was giving me DisneySea vibes. Which I wasn't expecting

    Thorpe Park | Derren Brown's Ghost Train | VR Attraction

    I think VR is great for people at home, who are "into" it and looking after the equipment, playing games they specifically like etc. For a theme park its just the worst idea, attaching a fragile expensive bit of kit to people of all shapes and sizes and then relying on it entirely to make...

    Does anyone know if FLY and Rookburgh has reopened? I saw that it was closed recently.

    Thorpe Park | Derren Brown's Ghost Train | VR Attraction

    I still cant get my head around why they built it at all. Derren Brown was in his peak a long long time ago. Merlin know they like to have minimal staffing. Why did they build a ride that requires so many staff working on it, relies on VR headsets which obviously will break, and that is all so...

    Alton Towers' Next Big Thing?

    Totally agree on this. It makes a park go up a level to me. And rides like Symbolica are great for everyone, eat up a lot of people and give people memories to remember. Some of my strongest memories of park visits are unique dark rides.
