Its just what X ever needed, loud music, decent lighting rig and a lower height restriction IMO.

Wow old topic! Just wanted to say I think the park deserve alot of praise for how the past few days have been handled with the cold weather. They've made sure everyone's been up to date as quickly as possible and obviously worked hard at getting an almost full line up (apart from Colossus and saw) running. Today the temperatures dropped further but with the park wide anoncments and complementary tickets due to some rides closing early I think it's all been handled great!

I beleave Colossus and saw we're closed today, not sure if inferno opened

It's possible the restraints have been replaced if they have been damaged but they will be the same ones

And yes, the water on both drops is working.

Aslong as the evening entertainment is set right, I think this will be pretty perfect for the park at this stage.

I find saw so strange, I'm able to brace my self from hitting my head on the bar its self yet it still gives me a headache most times, I guess its the ride just shaking my head around more than anything, where as on say Colossus I can stop it from hurting me.

http://www.thorpepark.com/press/image-bank/images.aspx?cat=THE+SWARM The pictures which Thorpe took of us

Which with a bit of luck they will have.. (if its over of course) I dont see why people think we would get any better theming added to a 4/5 year old coaster than what we have already. The Saw name also still keeps it popular, cant see it ever being open as anything but Saw tbh.

Fair point, when it opened yesterday alot of the forward rows were going empty, everyone wanted to try it backwards!

People saying Back row fastrack is crazy, its almost double the capacity of Front row fastrack when they sold it on The Swarm and much higher than the Front row fastrack on Stealth..

There must be an alternative to this... As I said over closed season stealth has had new railings and a wider walk way added and you can walk under the launch there as you wish, you can also queue under it where as I beleave at Rita if still has staff stopping you whilst a train is launching.. Very odd

Yeah I think it is, Stealth has had some slightly higher / wider railings added for this year so they can have this area open for guests

This. If anything it looks worse than it did before, Dont see why at Stealth they are able to solve the issue without any of this scaffolding.. I guess its cheaper than adding to the ride maybe?

Cant add much more than what has already been said. A big thanks to Peaj for his help in arranging all this, would of been impossible without him. Also a massive thanks to the park them selves, firstly for the opportunity for us to be part of the photo shoot, and secondly to the staff working on the ride entertaining us during the breaks with some * interesting* music choices!

Like they did on Saw? No real surprise if there is fastrack for back rows, hopefully it's abit more that £6. My bigger worry is in the station and how busy it gets, IMO they should only allow 2 trains of people In the station and send through 28 every time a trains sent to try control it

People will be glad to know Stealth, Tidal and Saw had their music back after nothing on AP day. Lost City is playing its normal music, The Noise (thorpes chart radio station style thing) plays at admissions, dome and the beach

A 5pm close on any weekend is bad enough, let alone easter!!

In this visual you can see there looks like plans for a small garden area, thorpe branding to be applied to the rooms..

I rode it today and the speakers seemed to work properly the time I did (was in a seat facing rumba)

Remember, today was a PREVIEW day, so issues like this can be ironed out for the new season
