Dicuss the fun water ride here.

dont know if anyone has noticed, there has been an update to the thorpe park app with the new 2014 map.....quite a change!

Just noticed Zodiac had no topic. I think it's pretty good although it's not one of my favourites. I'll go on it if the que isn't bad. I'd give it a three out of five. Anyone like it, anyone hate it?

Alot of Fanboys/fangirls take cameras to the park to take pictures, videos and recordings... I am one of them ;)Sometimes I manage to get a good snap Photo which I just want to show people. If you manage to snap a really good photo, show us

Thorpe have submitted planning application for Containment to become a permanent attraction. https://www.facebook.com/southparks/photos/a.10152110405478495.1073741827.213894828494/10153535036998495/?type=3&theater Thoughts?

Hiya all,I was just wondering if there is any news about Thrope Blast this year as I missed the last year it happened in 2008 or 2009 cos my lift drop out on the day... I looked at the opening dates and times for 2011 and it looks weird that the park is open until 8pm on the 4th - 6th November. I then looked at the 'events' page and there is no sign of Thorpe Blast returning... So I was asking; Are they still thinking about doing it and thats why they kept them days open late, or, is it because its the last few days of the season and want people to stay longer.Sorry just one more question:Why was Thorpe Blast cancelled? My friend went in 2007 and she said it was really pa…

Well as said, The Flying Fish is now open so away from the furture and now in the General dicussion.Discuss here...

I feel that these forums could do with this topic, traditions (rituals) at Thorpe Park. So, do you have any?I have tons, so here are some:- I aways head for Detonator first (soon to be replaced with Saw), followed by Stealth then Nemesis Inferno (then I head up towards Colossus)- I 'attempt' bend the rubber restraints on Stealth- I always try to keep my feet on the lights when walking in the X:/ No Way Out inside queue- I always eat Burger King (nearby Stealth)- When riding Nemesis Inferno, I rest my feet on the back of the seats infront (mainly just exciting the station)- On Stealth, I never look straight, I always look to the side- I always seat on the end seat on Samur…

WWTP; Thorpe Park's Amity Cove radio station. Discuss.What does WWTP actually stand for? World Wide Thorpe Park, or White Water West Thorpe Park [Yeah RIGHT Dann ]

Storm in a Teacup is awesome, so here's a topic about it.Originally teacup twisters, then themed to Storm in a Teacup WHENEVER, and now Storm in a Teacup sponsered by tetley tea!No day at a Theme Park is complete without a ride on the teacups. (or similar (Marauders Mayhem anyone?))Oh and Chessington has teacups on their carousel, so that counts!Has anybody else noticed they're playing WWTP radio on storm in a teacup? Has it always been in Amity Cove?Video times: Teacup madness with Perry the Platypus is at 0:50 seconds!

Hi all. Merlin have now made a pass just for Thorpe park. I have bough mine already online, but what do you think? Is it worth paying £64 to go to one park when you can pay £110 for about 10 places? Place your thoughts here

I'll go with Loggers Leap.

Essentially everyone is fairly tired of seeing it pop up in every new ride topic since 2008, so direct any topspin love or hate here! Interesting to see just what it is about the topspin that everyone feels is a necessity in every theme park. Please give reasons for choices; let the fight begin!

New for 2014 the Angry Birds 4d experience! The show is actually very good - the seats and the use of multiple special effects has been done very well, seems to be getting a good reaction on park which is good to!

I went to Thorpe Park last night when it was open until 10pm, and was just wondering what everyone thought was the best ride to go on in the dark?Personally, I think that the best rides for the dark are:1st - Rush, because the view is amazing2rd - Stealth, because the view is also amazing3nd - Samurai, because when it is lit up in the dark, it is really fun.

I am lucky, I only live about five miles from TP. I often meet people who have travelled hundreds of miles, but yesterday, I met a young girl who lives in Ealing, West London. She doesn't have a lot of money, therefore does not bring a car needing to pay the car park fee. She rides her bicycle, starting off about 8.30 a.m. to cover the eleven miles through the streets of west London. Me switching the car engine on is hard enough for me.
