Cal

It had a breakdown towards the end of the day on Sunday so not sure if that was to do with it. It didn't seem out of sync though, was a lot better from what it was like on AP day, but it's noticeable that Swing B was like only just getting to 90 degrees.

Only rode this once due to being on 1 train most of the day and getting up to a 35 min que at one point, having the biggest in the park. They added the second train around about 11:30 if I remember correctly and got added again about 3. Have no idea when or why it was taken off. The mist was really thick and you couldn't see in front of you in the tunnel which was great. The mist outside is also a lot better, when the wind blows at you in get's you wet

Had 3 rides on it on Sunday, all at different times of the day, pretty much all of the seats full on all of them and was really impressed with all of them. The ride has much improved from AP where the ride was awful, where the first couple of swings Jolted and you could tell it was struggling. The ride hardly reached 90 degrees and you only got a couple of high swings. Today was great, getting to higher swings very quickly meaning that you got a lot of them, and the jolted had completely gone. It’s very annoying that the same seats get to the higher point every time, meaning you either get a really good ride or a disappointing one I guess. The operator in the morning was quite funny, singing on the mic etc and just keeping everyone entertained.

Hopefully they are adding something else in there or some more themeing. I don't see why they'd remove themeing and leave it bare.

And I wonder how many people are getting annoyed with you keep saying that

Noticed in the tunnel yesterday that they have covered up some pipework. It also felt a lot more lighter in there than usual. Hope they make some other improvements to the tunnel and other parts of the ride as it is massively lacking themeing and effects... This is what the tunnel used to look like... And it now looks like...

I agree, especially the fact that they have spent so much money on it over the last couple of years. I assume it wasn't taken off their website as they thought they would have the ride open again at the begging of the season. They still should of had a banner or something saying that it was unavailable for the meantime.

WHAT!?!?!?! :(

The 2 times I went to Thorpe park last year during rain it closed, one of the times I was in the station. They said we could wait for the rain to stop or just go.

Well on AP day it was playing loud in the morning, but it kept cutting out every like 2 seconds. Then when I went in the afternoon it was turned off.

Well Slammer seemed to have no work and no testing going on all day today The dummies still remain in the seats.

Well I know from being at Chessington that all rides, except Tomb Blaster and Bubbleworks close during a storm. So I think all rides at Thorpe Park would close if there was a storm, except X? From my experience with Stealth last year, the operator opened the door and felt the rain then closed the ride so I think it always shuts during heavy rain.

Detonators audio was playing today, but was playing extremely quiet. You couldn't really hear it if it was busy if people were talking and couldn't really hear up past halfway up the ride. Hope this gets sorted soon.

They tend to close Stealth in the rain, probably because it does hurt.

I've never been dripped by Oil, but it's going to rain tomorrow when I'm going so I'll see if I get dripped on tomorrow.

All rides are normally open during rain and then Stealth shuts during heavier rain. I believe all rides expect indoor rides normally close during Storms and Thunder and Lightning.

I think they only do IF the rides have been affected for more than an hour now, not just if it rains for an hour. Someone posted on their facebook page asking if it was a rainy day because it rained for more than an hour, and they replied saying no as the rides were only affected for 20 minutes.

Loggers (With the old tunnel) Rumba on Congo river rapids?

Same here! I'd love a rollback! But I don't think so anymore, because it's not like 'meant to happen' anymore, the ride would be closed for the rest of the day.

The problem seems to be a bit on and off. Maybe they are waiting till the ride is closed for a week for it's 'retheme' to maybe replace the speakers, or just fix the audio somehow.

Good to hear it's back it's back open. Do you know if they've fixed the problem with swing B not reaching as high as well?

They were having problems with the speakers on annual pass day and then they just turned the audio off in the afternoon. Annoying they still haven't sorted the problem, Detonators theme is one of my favorites.

Oasis! Vampire or Dragons fury?

Oh yeah you can actually! Then it's probaly only Swing A having the restraint problems.

Better be on next Sunday! Never seen the mist work as well as it has in recent pictures!
