  1. Yep, the splash zone is good if the queue is really bad
  2. Yes, I remember Vogel Rok, a very good dark coaster if I remember rightly, as I went there in 2006.I was'nt overly impressed with Pegasus, their Woodie, I found it very uncomfortable.The landscaping is superb though, and also liked Bobbaan.
  3. Sorry, I meant the level bit of track before you go into the Immelmann loop, not on the drop itself.
  4. I would have thought they would have placed as you level out from the first drop. Would have made more sense really.
  5. "That's a nice car you got there""I'll see you later" Best dodgems I have been on, but don't like the lap bar
  6. Hope it stays like that.
  7. I have been there a few times in the past. Not a bad park, with some pretty good rides, especially Velocity, the Vekoma Motorbike launch coaster
  8. Yeah, me and Mum did think that was the reason. Made good video though
  9. I was there today aswell, very disappointed, but at least they opened up Rush and Colossus, 2 of my favorite rides, then went with the rest of the RCCGB'ers to the Hungry Horse pub up the road.
  10. You have a good point. The Edge seems to have had a lot of sucsessful test runs. I will be heading there to try it this saturday.I have to admitt, Paultons is the only park I have been to where testing has been that good, they open the ride earlier than advertised.I did'nt think I was moaning, I think it gives the park a good record.
  11. Thanks for posting the POV included video, and I agree with the dive loop, looks a bit tight, and very fast.Can't wait till thursday
  12. How come it opened early? Thought it said the 14th on the park map
  13. Dammit, I missed it. Might see if it's on bbc iplayer later.
  14. I like what they have done for Saw, with the blades on the first drop and the puddle of blood on the floor below it.
  15. I could just about hear the evil puppet noises, but the music from Colossus seemed to drown it out a lot :DAnd just found out, thanks to Andy Hine MBE, chairman of the RCCGB that I will be riding Saw on the 12th of this month, thanks to a club members competition. I think I am one of 5 members. Woohooooooo!!!

    I have had one blackout on Nemesis at Alton. I think it was on the downward helix before the zero G roll.
  17. After the park shuts, we have Saw for a whole hour. It's called an ERS, Exclusive ride session.As tpkabz said, a ride take over is just where we gather at a ride in a big group and get a few rides in, it's not an official takeover, it's optional.
  18. I'm not bothering to go anywhen before the RCCGB trip on the 21st. I'm going to be riding Edge at Paultons on the 14th.
  19. I like my Nemesis Inferno mug, it's one of the old ones though, which says red hot inside. A coffee in that each morning wakes me up no worries
  20. Thanks for putting those thumbnails up Mark9, brought back a lot of happy memories, especially the Mine Train.
  21. I like the Army camp theme of Expedition G force at Holiday Park in Germany.The thing is, I have been to Europa Park and Phantasialand in Germany, and it's not only the rides that are well themed, the whole park is.Black Mamba, for example, not only is it the best B&M Inverter I have ever been on, they spent as much money on the themeing as they did the ride.Their parks make ours look like travelling fairs. Sounds harsh but it's my opinion.
  22. * Indulges in past memories of riding Megafobia in the dark with no public, I love club trips Definatley a good little park, nice friendly atmosphere and a bobsled run which is rather fun in the rain.I think this park has a lot of potential to keep up with the times, ie, Speed- no limits. I would love to see the park add another wooden coaster to compliment Megafobia.UK's version of Holiday World in the States?
  23. I always make Rush the first ride of the day, then usually Colossus, back rowI always sit at the front on Loggers LeapI always never go on DetonatorI always sit near the back on InfernoI try to get an outside seat on SamuraiI always wave at Windsor Castle from the lift of Inferno, (yes, you can see it) Never eat anywhere else apart from KFC in Amity Cove.I never moan* when I go on X:// why is this ride still here*much
  24. The RCCGB, which I'm in, will be at the park with an ERS on Saw on the 21st march, but I will have ridden it by then, hopefully.
