I'm sure it will be fine, all the VIP MAP's will be in their hospitality crèche anyway.

or clogging up the Fastrack queue making it longer than the main queue and then getting upset when they aren't allowed to reride without queueing 

the new middle section I actually quite enjoyed. if they put some actors in it could be much better though but of course they won't do this unless for special events like Fright Nights 

Big One was only on one train due to the other two still in Maintenance and wouldnt be ready for another 4 weeks (well 3 now)! 

I can't make it sorry and I won't be coming to any future events. sorry yall. 

I think that Blackpool Pleasure Beach is the best park in the UK 

Adventureville is very strange but its an awesome little family ride

I'm still questioning the flats I'll do at WW - the cost means that I don't want to do many so I think I shall choose them carefully.

 

I think I'll do 2/3 out of xxl, ski jump, air and turbine. Not sure which ones to do yet though. 

 

If anyone's been in previous years, what were your favourite flats and what would you recommend for me to do?

Regarding Gladiator I would say try to go on a day where its quiet so you get a longer cycle. On busy days the cycle usually only lasts about a minute or two minutes. Also I highly recommend trying the Haunted Mansion ride thats insane very good and also Hangover is a great drop tower. Not too forceful but the drop really gets you

Maybe replacing SAW:Alive or the area where Cabin usually is with a year round horror maze run by an outside company(if its not run by Merlin then it might work better). When I worked at Thorpe I got asked at least 5+ more times a day if SAW alive was open so it shows there is a demand for a maze to be open all year. maybe not have it open from park start maybe open only from 1-5/11:30-4/12-6 and then at fright nights They could bring in more actors or Thorpe could suggest ideas to ramp up the experience

Does this place allow GoPros (with a fully secure chest mount) on the rides?

yep you can use anything I use my phone with just a wrist strap on. its pretty much a funfair thats just glorified. (I'm not slating the place I love it but thats what it is)

 

I'll do all the Merlin stuff with you guys but will probably nip off to Piccadilly for a little bit when you go for Lunch and then will probably meet up at Hyde Park

Here is a behind the scenes look at the old London attraction 

 

Pasaje Del Terror is a Horror maze franchise which started back in 1988. there are many in Europe and South America. there is one in the UK at Blackpool Pleasure Beach and there used to be one in London at Piccadilly. There used to be one in the USA called Terror on Church Street. the original creator of Pasaje was a man named Fernando Quenard and the very first Pasaje was located in Mar del Plata, Argentina. The Thompsons bought the Pasaje franchise in around 1993-1998 and has been running for about 20 years now(the Blackpool attraction). the Pasaje usually lasts about 10-15 minutes and has many famous horror movie characters which try to scare you during the journey. it is most famous for the Blackpool one where people come running out into a bar. 

Hello my name is Kyle. many of you probably know me as GladiatorFanKyle. I had to make a new account as I forgot the password to my old one and couldnt get it back haha. as you can tell I am an avid fan of Pasaje Del Terror haha. I am also a very avid fan of the Dungeons

Thanks for the information.

 

Having said that though, Air started off at £6 a couple of years back and when trade was going well they took up the opportunity to increase it to £7, so I could easily see them doing the same with Olympia once it gets busier if trade is going well.

Wouldn't surprise me. OL is all built up now also and only has the station and a few theming pieces to go. also the ride will be called Munich Looping instead of Olympia. this is due to rules on not being able to use Olympic theming in the UK so you won't see barely any Olympic theming on the ride at WW

I personally haven't heard anything to say that Rock Rage will not be called Ski Jump this year- as far as I'm aware they have all the theming from previous years as well as all the jingles programmed in already so it seems like an unlikely change- either of the two rides with clashing names may be called something different on the map however. I think it's a case of wait and see with this one.

 

And yes there is a Mondial Furioso, known as "No Limit" from the Netherlands instead of Joillet's Maxximum 2 Capriolo this year. 

 

Havent anything about confirmation of OL pricing anywhere myself, where did you hear this?

Heard about OL from a WW group on facebook. was confirmed by the people who own the crane which builds up Olympia 

Also not sure if Rock Rage is gonna be called ski jump this year as there is an actual Ski Jump ride going (the one thats called flying coaster that is the weird flat on a track). there is a capriolo this year but it's the mini one owned by Van Reken called No Limits.

Olympia has been confirmed to be £9 

I visited the Pleasure Beach for the first time this year and I have to say I had a really good experience there! not much to complain about except from the operations which were sometimes quite bad... other than that think it's a great park... and also Amanda if you are reading this then BRING PASAJE BACK TO LONDON!!! 

I've heard very good things about PDT! On my to-do list.

Its well worth it!! Such a shame the London one closed down! The blackpool one is excellent though!

You can probably tell but mine is Pasaje Del Terror. Really good scares, good group sizes(on one of my runthroughs there was me and two others), really good theming, well priced and very interactive!

Sedgwick's Superspin is a new addition for this year
