April 12, 200817 yr comment_25372 I have never been afraid of any rollercoaster (except Montu, coz I had just ate)Coasters are set on a determined path, where on rides lik slammer, not reliI'd go on slammer or samurai but just feels vulnerable. But its safe to know that there are DEEP SEATS:
April 12, 200817 yr comment_25373 yeah I do too. some people refuse to go on it becuase "thers nothing to hold you in!". It actually annoys me when people say that becuase no park or company will open a ride that will kill you lol
April 12, 200817 yr comment_25374 I love Rush. I never do my restraint very tightly becuase I love the air time, I was going to make a special trip tomorrow to go on it *LOL* but my Mum wouldn't let me becuase I'm going on holiday Monday
April 12, 200817 yr comment_25375 I'd go on slammer or samurai but just feels vulnerable. But its safe to know that there are DEEP SEATS:Deep seats, the seats have a inwards, its not like a normal seat like Vortex, you actually are sitting in the seat, whilst not on itI think we all know between the different seat styles...And do you really have to talk about poo?Just to contribute to this topic, I love Rush. It's a very good ride.
April 12, 200817 yr comment_25382 Yeh Martin, thats what annoys me too, my sis bf nearly fell of a pirate ship and if his dad didnt pull him up, he'd be deadTBH, I didnt actually know before chaz told me? about the deep seatsI supposed I could give slammer, rush and samurai a try, but if anything happens > forget 2009, my ghost will come for you allmuahahah (evil witch laugh)
April 12, 200817 yr comment_25385 meeheeeehe HmmmWhy dont Rush go on two swings?if there is a prob, dont they get it fixed?
April 13, 200817 yr comment_25391 One of the swings is normally not in operation. Its become the norm for rush. They only had both running last season for a bit. And when it opened. But I have rarely seen both working.
April 13, 200817 yr comment_25392 Yeh Martin, thats what annoys me too, my sis bf nearly fell of a pirate ship and if his dad didnt pull him up, he'd be deadThe only way you can fall off a pirate ship is by seriously pratting about.. so it'd be his fault (and he'd have to literally climb out of the seat and not hold onto anything to fall off
April 13, 200817 yr comment_25394 Whilst we're on the subject of Rush (Rush topic duh) here is the full beat-bed track used for 06, IN STEREO. Wow, I know. 5:24 of pure Rush beatage. Rush - Music Beat 2006 (Stereo)Rave Dave.
April 13, 200817 yr comment_25404 Lol > that was a jokeI was having problems with going on the forementioned but I have made by decision and that I will go on them, the next time I'm there and they're open.
April 13, 200817 yr comment_25409 One of the swings is normally not in operation. Its become the norm for rush. They only had both running last season for a bit. And when it opened. But I have rarely seen both working.Erm Rush was on 2 swings for like, nearly the whole of 2007.
April 13, 200817 yr comment_25413 ^ Yeah I thought so too. Of my 12 trips last year Rush was on two swings for ten of them and closed on one.
April 14, 200817 yr comment_25428 rush was back to 1 swing again yesterday, but atleast it was open considering it had been closed......
April 14, 200817 yr comment_25429 It had a fair few problems on Saturday and was going out of sync a fair bit so I'm not surprised its on one swing. Hopefully when it gets quieter they can work on it a bit and sort it out.
April 14, 200817 yr comment_25433 yeah hopefully.even though it was running on 1 swing and temporarily closed due to the restraints not opening fully, the arms of the lap bars went up but didnt raise, but other than that the queue never exceeded 25 minutes!
April 15, 200817 yr comment_25486 Both swings were being used all day yesterday (Monday) so it looks like they've fixed the problems they had initially.
April 15, 200817 yr comment_25501 Both swings were in use today however Swing B (closest to Colossus) was going WAY lower than the other one. It was going out of sync quite badly too. Had one or two shutdowns but none too serious.
April 15, 200817 yr comment_25503 I was in Thorpe on the 11th, they were testing Rush, I badly wanted to go on it! Still got caught in a middle of a storm and I think Stealth got struck by lightning, lol
April 16, 200817 yr comment_25524 Seat 12 is a dodgey one . Was pretty funny when I went. They took it apart infornt of everyone in the que and no one would sit in once they had put back together and re-opened the ride. The restraint kept getting stuck on seat twelve.
April 16, 200817 yr comment_25566 Sure, that figures. We won't sit in that seat because the restraint keeps getting STUCK. I'd understand it if the restraint kept flying open mid-ride, but honestly, some people.
