Altitude

God these puns have taken a bit of a dive...

The only thing I don't like is the name, although it might grow on me. But like I said earlier, everything else about it is amazing! <3

Looks fab. Hopefully it'll be open by July or early August as I was thinking about visiting then!

I like it a lot! The CS is lovely and looks realistic, and the track work is pretty original for a Vekoma Looper! The actually filming of the video is so smooth and lovely too I wish TPM had a RCT/Nolimits section!

Do it then. I mean, "very bad stomach bug" doesn't sound much worse than "seriously injured"? Although by your logic, you queued in the first place so it's your fault.

Nah, Benin is right on this one. You're the park's responsibility. And why do you think nobody would sue? Some people definitely would.

Not sure about a Screaming Squirrel... I don't think guests would appreciate the joys of shoulder bruising and having the blood drain to your head for 2 minutes.

Annoying how I have tonnes more teddy bear jokes but the conversation has moved on already </3 Anyway, raising the price and selling less could work I suppose. I rarely buy them anyway so it would only bother people with too much cash on them.

^ Maybe they couldn't... Bear the tension? I'm sorry. I'll stop.

I agree. If Thorpe Park really want to appeal to a wider audience, a dark ride would be fantastic. But no pointless/dead IP, just a fun, immersive ride that lasts for more than 2 minutes.

Tbh the ride looks really awful and actually quite painful, maybe it shouldn't exist?

Tbh I don't think "fanny" is bad to be honest. If they'd shouted "c**t" then I would be slightly shocked haha.

I agree with Marc and Fred. You should be accepting the park's rules. If the park tells the employees not to let people do it, they're just doing their job. Besides if they let one group of people ride again, the people entering the station from the queue will want the same thing afterwards. If you do it for some guests, it's rude to other people in some cases. And trust me, I work in a place with lot's of customers, and it's s**t when people shout at you for something you don't decide. I know it's a bit of effort, but is it really that hard just to walk out and enter the (supposedly empty) queue again? If it's empty enough for you to "demand" a second ride, then you won't be waiting in the queue to ride again.

If they want a family coaster, I really doubt they'd go for a Wild Mouse. It's old news. How would they market it? Even if it was a custom layout, those coasters aren't the most interesting in my opinion. I get that they cater for families, but I don't think Varney would ever let one through.

And why would the park want to lower themselves with a coaster like that?

I'm visiting on the 28th so hopefully it won't be horrendous! If I don't queue over 90 minutes for anything I'll be happy!

It's a RCT3 ride, I don't blame you for not knowing though. The only real one I can picture is Condor at Phantasialand but that's no longer there.

^ No they don't though tbh. The BBQ isn't open until late for hotel guests, and the food there is fairly similar to Bar 360... (Fries, Burgers, Salad, Chicken etc) Thorpe Park doesn't have the selection of good food a resort needs. I don't want to live off pub/theme park food for 2 or 3 days if I'm a hotel guest. Besides the Calypso BBQ is a long walk from the Hotel, as well as it not being open late. It's also outside. In October, if I was a hotel guest looking to try something new at the BBQ, I wouldn't want to sit there in the cold whilst I eat a quickly-cooked meal on a wooden bench.

I think considering the park is now a "resort", more table-service restaurants are needed. I haven't stayed in the Shark Hotel yet but I think the only table-service outlet available to resort guests after hours is Bar 360? And that's a bar. If I'm saying overnight or even for two nights, I'd love a small choice of restaurants in which I can just relax without having to get up and down to visit a bar.

Hmm I would assume CITW yeah. I don't think anywhere except for that and Studio 13 would have a fire exit that looked like that?

And just for reference I wasn't being serious, in case you didn't realise... (Not being patronising, sarcasm is hard to get over the internet.)

^ Well I'm sure a moderator will more than happily delete your account for you (to save you the trouble). Unfortunately TPM doesn't give out Priority Passes to it's departing members I'm afraid.

Thank god you joined a Thorpe Park fansite then.

The Top Spin will look great there.

^ I think they did the "year later" thing with Fluch didn't they? I seem to remember the pre-show and some other bits changing. With Fluch though, I'm sure they completed work on the buildng's exterior because it's opening, so hopefully Karnan will be the same!
