I guess. Don't get me wrong I think this looks wonderful I just feel a bit short changed with the duration of these smaller ones.

I'm not getting carried away no matter how amazing the theming is. I just wish these smaller dive coasters had more to them. So short.

I feel like I see those VIP lanyards all the bleedin' time.

Thanks. I'm not holding out much from the ride itself if it's even smaller than Krake.

Indeed. Although Mack are responsible for the lights really.

Join us on Towersstreet if you wish for SF. We're a friendly bunch.

Is it just me or does the drop look smaller than Krake? So beautiful mind you. Going in 3 weeks for the midnight close!

Sub Terra is down due to the restraints being too restrictive. They need to work on them.

You clearly don't get my sarcasm. I agree it's sad about the giraffes. Zufari is one of the most budget - cut ridden disappointments in the UK. It is synonymous with ill investment at Chessington over the past 15 years.

I just feel that it's SO important they get off on the right foot. So many coastal parks have collapsed.Without Scenic, the main feature isn't there. Fair enough on the free tickets but it's a bit of a fail if you ask me.

I'm excited for SF 2015!

The reason the restraints have been changed is because people were trying to CLIMB OUT during the ride. Reason enough to change them.

...that makes the ride even more boring then.

This is stupid! No Scenic!?

Rita re-opened today. It just wouldn't launch yesterday.

The patch Alton Towers is going through at the moment is very difficult. A lot of rides are suffering, not least The Smiler. Ripsaw, Th13teen, Rita and Nemesis Sub Terra all have technical issues at the moment. - Th13teen has problems with the hydraulics and has only been using 2 of 3 trains. - Nemesis Sub Terra has had the restraint redesign which means too many people can't ride. - Rita is just throwing a hissy fit. Quite rare for Rita as she's quite reliable these days. - Ripsaw... no idea. It's so unusual for so many rides to have problems at AT! I hope they get back on track soon.

Couldn't care less. After the other week I have no interest in visiting what has become the world's slowest declining theme park for a long time.

Given that Alton Towers medical are the first responders for resort 999 calls and ambulance trained... Given the situation... - Ride staff realise what's going on - Call to First Responders - They arrive - They get into a position to assess injuries ...11 minutes isn't long.

Please. Please! Now, I love Efteling. It's wonderful. But Alpengeist has a themed lift hill support structure. And Black Mamba is an incredibly themed B&M. This might well be magical and beautiful - it truly is - but it's not the first time this has been done.

Looks more similar to GCI woodie to be honest. Not sure if I can justify a trip yet as after this there's nothing else. It's not like there's other parks either.

Who needs Chessington?

People need to stop over hyping Baron. The theming in queue lines and stations at Efteling - on DVH and presumably Baron - is top drawer. But they never theme every inch of the experience. That's where only a small few make it.

Mamba is not going to be thematically better than this. Just no.

Alton have 1.3m on Facebook. They should post saying that much of the reports are false.

Looks solid. Not incredible, bit solid.
