It does look very good, but like Ryan said it does look like it hits that first trim pretty hard

Apparently Flying Fish has it's single rider back as well now. Don't really see this being of much use as it never really gets a queue anyway, but good they are adding it to more rides

Good they are doing that, but ride availability has been very poor the last few days.

Lots of people on twitter claiming that Stealth has rolled back today! Seems the problems are still ongoing then, and Stealth has been shut since

I don't see the problem with groups using single rider queues as long as that group is alright with being split up? It happens everywhere Would love to see Stealths single rider queue to be honest, and don't see why they couldn't. It doesn't require an extra staff member to operate it either. Hopefully if Vortex's and Samurais go well they can start adding it back to other rides.

All coasters are closing at 6:30 today instead of 6 due to ride availability according to thorpes twitter

Ah fair enough, I was going by the comment on that photo Good its back anyway

So the fire is only turned on now when there is more than 8000 on park?

Stealth and Inferno are good ones to go to first as you will literally get straight on both of them. If you are bothering with IAC I'd recommend doing then when it opens at 10 as well as that keeps a queue throughout the day. I don't think it makes much difference on Swarm, but the front row queue is always short on the Swarm due to there no being a specific queue, so I'd recommend doing it if you haven't before

X has re-opened today

Read the post above you

Uh ohhhh

Colossus is the only coaster at Thorpe I'd say needs a lick of paint?

I hope Tidals open this Fright Nights just to see the sign

According to queue times, Samurai is now open! Just waiting on the ghost train now

I don't think its staggered openings as such because it's different rides which open late every day, it just depends what they can get ready. My point was that they struggle getting everything ready by half 9, I remember a day last year and less than half the rides were open.

I still find it annoying how Thorpe advertise a 9:30 opening but can't manage to get the rides open for then. For example on Sunday we get in and walk round to Colossus which was closed, then Saw which was closed, then Slammer which was closed, then round to IAC which was closed. Much preferred it when they advertised a 10 opening and let AP holders in at 9:30ish when rides were ready.

It was really noticeable how much faster Slammer is raising and coming back down than in recent years! Operations were also really good, and at one point they were even loading there air gates while the ride was in operation which I haven't seen them do in years. However I did notice staff no longer have a key to unlock single restraints, so if someones restraint is too tight they have to unlock every restraint both sides and start over which was annoying.

Loved the improvements on X today, music in the queue is a lot louder and I love the new playlist, the new announcements are pretty good as well. However on the ride it sounded really bad, It will really muffled and just sounded awful.

Will look gorgeous for fright nights. A lot of staff I spoke to today have said they're planning to have it open by the end of May/ 2 weeks. Obviously this isn't confirmed but hopefully it shouldn't be too long

Haven't seen Samurai test today but the signs have been put back up since this morning except the queue time board, and ride staff are saying it may open today but they can't guarantee it

Looks a lot better with the orange. Number 2 and 3 there are my favourite.

Loving the new mobile site now, still wont let log on to tapatalk but don't see the need anymore anyway

Glad it's back, looks good! Lets hope it lasts more than a few months this time though

Depends on the cycles really, but I'd say a good top scan. Nitrogenie or Ben and Jerrys?
