September 2, 201015 yr comment_97789 Why does Paulton's Kontiki spin MUCH faster than Chessington's ? Just something I've been wondering for a while So much better at Paultons :')
September 2, 201015 yr comment_97791 Ahh ok cheers for that Benin, and other guys .Do wish they'd speed it up a tad
September 3, 201015 yr comment_97816 And technically faster now that Chessington have slowed theirs down... (Well Zamperla!)Mate, I didn't even notice the difference on Kobra.
September 3, 201015 yr comment_97830 Mate, I didn't even notice the difference on Kobra. I have.Kobra seems so tame compared to Edge. Also depends whre you sit I suppose.
September 3, 201015 yr Author comment_97832 Yep! Also anyone going to the special coaster day at Paultons (see previous page) I have secured ert on Sky Swinger (a Wave Swinger like Monkey Swinger) to be run backwards alongside Cobra and Edge's ERT session!!
September 3, 201015 yr comment_97838 I'm going to the enthusiasts day next week - it's shaping up to be great day. Thanks so much for helping to organise these treats Rich! Sky Swinger backwards should be awesome
September 3, 201015 yr Author comment_97856 Haha np! See you on park as I am operating one of the three for ERT!!! Come say hi!
September 4, 201015 yr comment_97868 Big thanks to you Rich for the Sky Swinger in reverse.See you next saturday
September 4, 201015 yr comment_97871 Wow, I wish I could come to this :PAnyway, well done to Rich and Paulton's for organising this and sorting all the extra's out
September 12, 201015 yr comment_98595 Just to say thanks Rich for a great event.Even though there seemed to be a slight glitch with the Waveswinger, all went well. Semed weird riding it backwards, great fun though.Peppa Pig site looking good aswell.
September 12, 201015 yr Author comment_98620 Yes, typical! The 2nd ride it faulted however, the rest of the hour was fine and the rest of the day it was fine and did not fault! Just must not be used to going backwards with people on! And no problem! I hope everyone enjoyed their expierence and day!
September 12, 201015 yr comment_98621 I think we all had a great day Rich. Will pop by in the next few weeks.

April 15, 201114 yr comment_113489 I Went to Paultons on Tuesday. (12/4/11)It was a really good day at a Park which isn't really talked about that much and has some pretty decent rides too. After heading through the turnstiles it was a fairly long walk all the way over to the other side of the park to get on the first ride, which was Cobra. This is the best 'Mouse' type coaster in the UK imo, it has some nice helixes, turns and airtime hills. It was pretty much a walk on at the start of the day and it amazes me how it doesn't need an operator to be in the console, they can just use the dispatch console to do everything with one operator! Next, I went to ride on the...Edge, it's better than Kobra (don't get confused here) It always gets to the top of each spike and gets some good airtime over the airtime hill if you sit furthest away from the loading platform. The park was pretty quiet on a whole, when compared to Merlin parks and Edge remained an almost walk on all day, most of the time it was just waiting for the cycle to finish that created a small queue. The majority of people were in PPW, which did have big queues on everything. Overall it was a really good day, and we will probably visit again when we are in the area. Ride Count:Cobra: 4Edge: 4The Stinger: 2Flying Frog: 1Kontiki: 1Sky Swinger: 1Raging River Ride: 1Jumping Bean: 1Rio Grande Train: 1Some random car ride similar to tiny truckers which I got forced onto and almost got stuck in: 1George's Dinosaur Adventure: 1-This had 30mins queue and was the longest queue of the day.
