You mean the Disney thats invested 2 billion Dollars in Fastpass+ at Disney World which will require vacation guests to plan their fastpass rides months in advance?

Have lunch? It is a trial Benin, I understand the downers and even expressed some of these thoughts to Marc but it iss just an experiment. If it fails, we can go back to overselling fastrack and queuing single file. If it works then Thorpe will need to work out what to do with people if they spread it among more rides and there is no queue guarantees for everything. I applaud the park for at least attempting to do something to help queues which is something a lot of parks seem totally ignorant of at times.

On the contrary, we don't have cookie cutter rides like the majority of the rides in America because Towers can't just throw a ride at a place, they have to carefully plan them out to the letter. That brings out far more imagination and creativity in the designers then just throwing a ride at a plot of land imo.

That's just what the layout reminds me of is all.

Based on German fan websites it will have five inversions, a starting loop like The Swarm, at least one inline twist, an immelman loop, a zero g roll and possible an inclined loop (again like The Swarm). http://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?depth=1&hl=en&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dheide%2Bpark%2B2014%2Bcoaster%26client%3Dsafari%26sa%3DX%26rls%3Den%26hl%3Den%26biw%3D1455%26bih%3D886&rurl=translate.google.co.uk&sl=de&u=http://www.az-online.de/lokales/niedersachsen/heide-park-stellt-neue-achterbahn-wingcoaster-3065201.html&usg=ALkJrhiy9el0OB55FjvY2tXMCJP-XKoakw Looks incredibly similar to X-Flight actually. The odd small difference but basically the same. Colour me only slightly disappointed that it wasn't a bit more daring.

There is no reason given by the moderator/admin who deleted your post, the same with the other posts that were deleted. I can't find your other deleted post either. Sorry about that Altitude, as a rule, if any member of the moderator team deletes a post, they are supposed to either give a reason in the topic or contact the member as to why a post was deleted.

I can only find one of your posts deleted in the moderator section. What else of yours do you think has been removed? (The Deleted post)

All I'm going to say is that I eagerly await your trip report on that one.

You mean a big brown shed with someone talking loudly through a microphone?

Thanks to CoasterClub Denmark (Yay the Danish)

I can't really compare like for like because the new versions of rides such as Bubbleworks and Vampire are just bastardized versions of what went before. What I will say is when I was a four year old, Chessington was this magical, spell-binding place where you journeyed into Television sets, were transported to Ancient China and every 90 second a Vampire bat flew over the cobbles of Transylvania. It didn't matter that the majority of rides at the park were very standard, dull rides because the theming and effort that went into each ride was above and beyond anything we had seen in the UK. Now all I see is a load of rides that have been ruined, the original designers efforts destroyed because of a lack of care, a lack of love and a lack of interest by higher management. The way I see it, it doesn't matter if Chessington's current managers have these big ideas and ambitions as they will never be allowed to go above and beyond. It's all restricted by minuscule budgets. Sure they have a 5 million budget for Runaway Train + Falls + Park wide improvements. But that isn't enough to solve a terminal problem at the park.

Before Chessington screwed up Buccaneer, the throughput was around 900pph. But back then it had air gates so people could batch themselves whilst the ride was moving. They also were able to have children sitting at the end of rows. With that luxury gone, batching takes far longer then it ever needs to so I'd say its throughput is closer to 300 people per hour then the projected 900 that Huss says it can get. That throughput was based on Fury running 8 cars which it hasn't done since 2006. It's throughput now is far more like 450/550 (550 is very optimistic) an hour which for the parks second main roller coaster is dire. Still, could be worse and be Rattlesnakes 350pph an hour.

Alpine Express, Euro Mir, Euro-Sat, Poseidon, Pegasus, Silver Star, Wodan. Just some other rides that are so good they are worth going on at least ten times. If you can

It's the cover of my christmas card to Ste.

Really because I thought Nemesis was at Alton Towers and Nemesis Inferno was at Thorpe Park. I'd understand if we were talking about Batman the Ride but not when its two different rollercoasters with two different names at two different theme parks. Then again I said we should agree to disagree and you just wanted to carry on with saying I'm wrong about Saw when its quite clear that it's a mixed opinion as shown by people who have posted on here. Then again, you seem to be conducting most of your points through GIF's and memes which was funny ten years ago, not so great anymore.

Its funny how busy low throughput attractions look ain't it.

Outstanding.

Really, because Matt Creek got there first and seems to agree with me. Maybe we should just agree that we disagree and just try and spell Nemesis Inferno correctly in future ey

Detonator... Or serious suggestions, Tidal Wave, The Swarm and Nemesis Inferno.

! GET THEE TO MEGAFOBIA, TONNERRE DE ZEUS OR WODAN, POST HASTE!

Head banger is rarely a criticism that you ever throw at a B&M inverter. Compared to every ride on the planet with OTSR's, Inverters rarely give that kind of experience. I reckon its re-selling an old product, after all between Phæton and Banshee there has only been Oz'Iris built and when you think the inverter ride type used to sell and sell, B&M have come up with ways to resell the ride type such as the restraints, a steeper lift hill and the new type of inverter drop first seen on Oz'Iris.

I can name three rides that are far better themed then Saw. Your move.

Love the colour scheme and am intrigued by the wing rider restraints being bought over to the inverter. Also intrigued by its finale, that slow inline twist looks cool. The rest is generic American over-sized B&M but on the plus side it could be a very intense ride. :-D Good to see another Inverter as well, we've had few and far between since Phæton opened in 2007. Thanks to Theme Park Review

More like England according to Americans...

It's always this quiet at this point in the summer holidays as lots of families go on foreign holidays. Towards the end of the holidays we will see a much busier park.
