    Rumba Rapids, If Flying Fish was a Tad faster and had scenary It would be Flying Fish Vortex or RushP.S , saying I don't like it was harsh , I go on it and I enjoy it , but I just find it distinctly average in every way, Too smooth , not forceful and just no where near as good as the other 3 of Thorpe's main Coasters

    Saw by miles , as some of you will know , I don't like Nemesis Inferno Saw or Colossus?
  3. Yea it is I think I pointed that out earlier, but maybe not
  4. Thing about Chessington is , for older people , I mean like teenage and young adults, it has a negative reputation, I really think it needs a big coaster or just something to get people in to try it and then people will see it's not JUST for little kids. I am gonna try my hardest to persuade these guys to go Chessington , you guys got any ideas of what I could say to persuade them ? But I doubt I'll be succesful as none of them have ridden Saw yet and they are all desperate to try it.
  5. Thanks for your thought , I'm going to try and go to Chessington especcially as I haven't been in years
  6. This , like Nemesis , seems like a complete package if you know what I mean , Brilliant theming and landscaping, brilliant music and a top class ride to go with it. I absolutely LOVE Nemesis and It's my favorite ride of all time, so I would probably love Black Mamba and to be honest anythings better than Inferno ( People who like that ride , please don't kill me )

  8. Wow thats brilliant, thanks very much everyone for your help :PEdit: there's been a change of plan . Now we're not going with the kids but all of us big'uns' and we're going to Thorpe park. Yay for longer ques....

    I wouldn't mind it quite so much as I do if it didn't increase the Main que so hugely , but once when I was at Thorpe they were doing one train for Fastrack one train normal que, which was just ridiculous
  10. James6 replied to AHW's topic in Quick Questions
    Yea! IMO it's amazing how much being able to get on even just 1 or 2 rides with little or no wait improves the day out. Feels like the park is trying to help you out and is doing whatever possible to make your day better
  11. James6 replied to AHW's topic in Quick Questions
    I still don't get why they got rid of the free fastrack a few years ago! It worked well and was fair. It really made the day feel more value in a weird way.I hope they bring it back , I know it's 99.9% not going to though

    1 day left to get your entries in this week.There's still loads of time so come on get your entries in
  13. Sorry if it was mentioned earlier but have the Nemesis Inferno effects broken already?
  14. James6 replied to Cringle's topic in Nonsense
    Space Mountain, I just don't like Rita for some reason.Congo River Rapids or Rumba Rapids
  15. James6 replied to Cringle's topic in Nonsense
    Ouch , tough one...Hmm , I'm gonna go with Oblivion. If Saw was just a little bit longer , It would be Saw.Duel or Tomb Blaster
  16. James6 replied to Cringle's topic in Nonsense
    Cheryl Cole :PPark for thrillseekers or park for everyone?
  17. Hey guys, I was just wondering , what have the ques been like at Chessington the past couple of Saturdays? I may be taking some youngsters next Saturday and it would be there first time and don't want to throw them headfirst in to 45 minute+ ques.Thanks very much
  18. Neither did I untill I saw this. It's in a park in South Africa, It's called Gold Reef City
  19. I am so jealous it's unbelieveable! Have a great time, and make sure you post some sort of trip report so I can envy you even more
  20. Was browsing through RollerCoaster Database one bored friday afternoon and came across this. Click HereIt has a G-Force of 6.3!!I found this amazing as it's an in-house creation and has a vertical drop of 164ft!Take a look , I'm looking for a video at the moment , and I'd love to see if anyone here has been on it and can compare forcefulness compared to say Nemesis Inferno or Colossus.
  21. To be honest when I first heard about the harry potter thing I thought they would just expand the castle of DD and make that into Hogwarts. But it does seem they are sort of trying to keep it as "the same" as possible. Although there is still lots of time for them to fit DD into Harry Potter
  22. James6 replied to Cringle's topic in Nonsense
    Colossus , 100% of the timeStealth , would you rather be on the actual ride where it completes a circuit , or a rollback?Edit: woops beaten to it , will do themeparkmad's SawStealth , would you rather be on the actual ride where it completes a circuit , or a rollback?
  23. James6 replied to Cringle's topic in Nonsense
    Cereal , rice krispies ftw :)5 rides on anything at Thorpe or 5 rides on anything at chessington?
  24. Lets hope so , that sounds brilliant! :PTo be honest sometimes I prefer "fun" parks for everyone if you know what I mean rather than hardcore rides Like Thorpe.I really hope they get some sort of Big Thunder Mountain Type ride
