JoshuaA Posted November 6, 2016 Report Share Posted November 6, 2016 I think Slammer and Loggers are next on the chopping block considering the amount of space it would open up on both sites. If I was running the park Storm Surge would be blown to smithereens on live TV.. But sadly I see Storm Surge staying the ugly eye sore it is in the park for another decade or two.

I hope that Samurai last's longer though; I love it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cian Posted November 9, 2016 Report Share Posted November 9, 2016 Slammer's definitely (and fortunately), close to its deathbed. Like the above, my bet's on 2017. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CharlieN Posted November 10, 2016 Report Share Posted November 10, 2016 Nope I think we'll see slammer slamming for at least 5 more years now - it looked to be in fine form this season. There's also the fact that it's my favourite flat on park, by quite a bit, so I guess that 5 year figure is more out of hope than anything else.

I like Slammer, it is a good flat. However, I don't see it lasting for anymore than 2, possibly 3 more years at the park. Cian 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshuaA Posted November 10, 2016 Report Share Posted November 10, 2016 Especially as S&S has discontinued the ride type.. Its a great flat don't get me wrong, but I think its on its last legs.. Plus they could fit a decent flat in its space, as Slammer seems to be sit on large plot of land. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Doyle Posted November 10, 2016 Report Share Posted November 10, 2016 I'll give Slammer 3 years tops. Thorpe park know it's a very unique ride and they constantly like to point out its the last of its kind, but how long can they honestly persist with a ride that has all the issues that Slammer has??
