Remember this is Zamperla... Not the highest quality rides ever made by any stretch of the imagination.

It happens whenever Slammer is unavailable, I assume so that if they are doing work on it and it falls or anything then people are a far enough distance away.It also stop people queueing for it to re-open.The area cut off is basically all the area containing Slammer from the edge of the toilets building.But yeah, Slammer is an epic ride

I think that's a matter of opinion...

Sounds like those new style Vekoma trains + restraint's have worked absolute wonders!Also glad to hear you had a great trip, it's definitely a park I'd love to visit and hope to sometime soon I'd also like to hear what you thought of Mammut, but I do love Mine train's

When your customers are like the majority of Thorpe's, it doesn't surprise me. The park knows it makes sense to have 2 trains on and then take them off rather than have one on and build a queue and then put it on making it even longer, why it doesn't do it, well the crowd control explanation sounds plausible, if not slightly cynical.Who remember's during Stealth's construction?"Stealth will have 3 trains so it will always be able to run at maximum capacity."

About £10, £15 without hairline fractures

One train... That is absolutely ridiculous... Bloody hell, that is absolutely shocking, and they didn't even bring them on when the rides had 90 minute long queue's?Glad you had a good day anyway.

Wow, I wish I could come to this :PAnyway, well done to Rich and Paulton's for organising this and sorting all the extra's out

Sorry, but, flat rides not being able to decrease in quality?If anything they are the ride type with the biggest variance in terms of quality due to different settings. Samurai especially, can be god awful one day but actually quite amazing another so of course they can go down in quality...

Ahh ok cheers for that Benin, and other guys .Do wish they'd speed it up a tad

Why does Paulton's Kontiki spin MUCH faster than Chessington's ? Just something I've been wondering for a while

If that is where you mean, I've never noticed a smell But sometimes the bins in the queue have been rather pongy

^ Definitely, the ride where I realised how much I enjoyed the ride was when I, as a single rider, was put with a young family, they were awesome and asked me if I had been on it etc. The 2 kids must've been barely 1.2m tall and both were obviously scared senseless, they went crazy after the outdoor section, then screamed at the drop and laughed at the backwards section. And when coming back in the station, the screams of "again" and laughter were awesome.

I don't see how... but okay :lol:I like the ride, so what? I struggle to see where I've been particularly fanboy-ish about it, I was having a bit of a joke with Mark which you seem to have missed and taken seriously.

^ Try to sense the sarcasm in my post with the use of Wink Face and the Lol face...

The GP don't know anything :lol:It's an epic ride and you know it :(But yeah, I've not been on it without at least 1 person saying "is that it" after the coaster section, at which time I chuckle to myself.

^ If only everyone did

My thing with smoking is that if one person smokes, there is then a huge number of people who are forced to breathe it in, even in paths and walkways where often they are very cramped and congested. I don't have a huge problem with it, even if other people's smoke can often give me a headache.

Thanks for that Paul Interesting, but still, definitely going to be a while before my next visit, it's going to take a lot for me to go back.

Mark... Your wrong :lol:Deal with it

Incredible TR Mikey and once again agree on your opinions there :lol:Glad your family enjoyed it too

eeeeeee Sorry but on this occasion, your just wrong... Ok?

^ This!Agreed on every aspect Glad someone else feels the same about the ride... was starting to get lonely :D
