    Seaworld San Diego | Tidal Twister | Skyline Skywarp Horizon

    What a complete pile of trash. Why does this exist?

    Walibi Holland | Untamed | RMC Robin Hood Conversion

    Pacing seems great for testing! Maybe RMC's best excluding SV/LR from the looks of it. Love the flow of elements too, doesn't seem to have any jarring transitions at all which some seem to have.

    Kennywood | Steel Curtain | S&S Multi-looper

    Yeah this could well be the most hideous coaster ever built.

    Walibi Belgium ready for its transformation!

    Good god. This makes Hyperion look like a B&M hyper. Good on Intamin for taking on RMC (and Vekoma to a certain extent) in terms of insane elements. This is edging it for me over the launcher but they both look fab.

    Kentucky Kingdom | Kentucky Flyer | Gravity Group Family Wooden

    Great news! GG is so fab, every small-mid sized park in the world should get one of these.

    Thorpe Park: What could the future hold?

    Yeah a hyper would be lovely (Mack or Intamin please, B&Ms look a bit bleh to me), as would an RMC but I'm putting my money on a mini dive. I'd welcome one like Valkyria but wouldn't be surprised by a mediocre OTBH/Krake style one. Would much prefer a mid sized snappy GCI, which doesn't seem too...

    Walking out of the Icon exit: Pre-teen no.1: Omg that was so good that's the best one here Pre-teen no.2: Nah mate you haven't been on Infusion yet

    Ride Related Dreams You've Had

    Had an awful one where Thorpe/Merlin had got so desperate and tragic that they'd started paying low-tier Love Island contestants to lounge around the park in bikinis and upload selfies.. Hold on...

    Energylandia | Hyperion | Intamin Hyper coaster

    That's one ride though? The rest of the park looks really tacky whereas Europa is pretty stunning overall. Kudos to them for doing such a good job on Hyperion though, the park are really on the right track now and very excited for their future.

    Toverland | Fenix | B&M Wing Coaster

    This is all looking so lovely! It's great to see a small park get such a solid, well themed addition.

    Wicker Man or Icon? Which is the most significant for the UK?

    Probably Wicker Man although it's obviously the inferior ride. I don't think any smaller parks would ever have been put off buying a modern steel double launched coaster for any reason other than cost. However the a large portion of the public undoubtedly questioned the safety of woodies. The...

    Britain and Mediocrity

    Nemesis & Icon for quality. Smiler and The Ultimate for uniqueness. Stealth is fun but beaten by its US and now European counterparts, and Swarm is good but not exactly groundbreaking. Same goes for Megafobia. So in answer to the actual question, 2. And some would probably argue against...

    Alton Towers | Wicker Man | GCI Wood

    Exactly this. If it'd been built at Chessington or Drayton or pretty much any other UK park I'd have been thrilled. But they spent a similar amount to BPB on Icon on a mid-level at best family woodie, after years of speculation and hype that they'd finally get one. I really can't see the...

    Blackpool Pleasure Beach | Icon | Mack Multi-Launch

    Finally got on today! Absolutely loved it and pretty sure it's my favourite coaster now, topping Nemesis. There were a few dead spots and I do wish there were some more proper airtime hills and/or inversions but the ejector going off the top hat on back row as well as on the other 'proper' hill...

    Music Recommendations

    Everyone who likes R&B/soul should have listened to Erykah Badu, saw her at a festival recently after being a big fan a while and she was incredible. Ctrl by SZA and A Seat at the Table by Solange are two of my favourite albums at the moment. Also loving Lapsley: And Sufjan Stevens on the...

    Interrail Trip - Tivoli Gardens, Europa Park, PortAventura

    Great report (ludicrous placing of PMBO aside ;))! Hoping to do a similar trip myself soon, glad to hear Shambhala's running well as I've heard mixed things about it recently.
