I'd love an ice section, potentially with a dive coaster. Also a futuristic section with a hyper coaster.

thanks! It means a lot to get that from a theme park fan.

Yep sorry, I think I did mean matt creek.

Oh and just a quick Q: what is the best European wooden rollercoaster for me to ride in the future? Is it collosos, wodan or other?

Good question...well since I'm still in year 9 I've got a long time to think about it however, I'd love to have a say on the design of different theme park aspects. Anything in the design/engineering industry will suit me really but a theme park job is ideal. As I said I'm all about the design, and I do have a book (or 2) of my designs. I also won an annual pass because I won the Future Thorpe competition. I'm not saying this has got me a place In the industry (because it obviously hasn't) but "crosses fingers" hopefully there's a place for me in the theme park world... For all you interested, my Instagram name for the competition is slipstream_thorpe

I've never been on a wooden rollercoaster. I know my life is tragic...

Hello! I'm Charlie. I'm 14 and I visited Thorpe park for the first time when I was 10. I've been hooked on theme parks ever since. I'd love to be a rollercoaster designer when I'm older (as I'm sure you all do) and I have many books of my plans. Although I haven't been to any foreign theme parks I spend my evenings watching POV's of numerous rollercoasters, so I know my verboten from my dodonpa! I've recently planned my theme park tour of the world which I hope will eventually happen. Anyway, nice to meet all you coaster addicts!

I would like... A refurbishment of all the water rides as they could all be cleaned and improved (especially rumba Rapids) Colossus to be repainted and theming to be added. Also as much as I love slammer, it seems to be closed for half the season so replacing it with a top spin seems like a good idea.

The reason why I find that very hard to believe is because of the boring, unimaginative ride name...

Sorry, I was born 20 years after the 80's so I don't know where the old Central Park area was. Can anyone tell me which current area used to be known as Central Park?

I think you could be onto something here...

Hi. I'm new to TPM but I have read every comment since about page 20 on the old wc16 forum. I also watched yesterday's one show and what most intrigued me was that Derren said that there wouldn't be long queues because him and Merlin have it "all planned out". This could just mean heavily themed queues like those in hex or there could be some sort of interactive element to make you feel like your are in part of the ride but you are actually queueing.
