This might be a controversial opinion, and I apologise if it is, but I rerode Samurai last year for the first time in a number of years… and I found it absolutely vile! It was really jolty, it had loads of that horrible slow hangtime that made me feel stuff moving around in my stomach, it span and flipped horribly… I’m sorry to be negative, but if I’m being honest, I have to say that I absolutely hated it, and it would be right down there with Air Race at Drayton Manor as one of the most vile flat rides I’ve ever ridden!
I grant you that I don’t have a particularly strong stomach for flat rides, particularly of the spinning variety, but I needed a good sit down after that ride on Samurai…
I’d remembered quite liking it when I first rode in 2018, but I didn’t like it at all in 2023, unfortunately…
