I'm quite mad the UK is missing a decent Woodie like "Thunderhead" or "Thundercoaster", Megaphobia is fun but it is not big and long enough.
Why do UK parks dismiss a large out and back or twister style woodie and go for a boring steel "rocket coasters" which other parks have. Why copy them.
Thope Park should have a woodie put over the water with some tunnels and get CCI or Gravity Group to built it.
Is the UK Parks scared to build these rides..!!!
If I won 10 million pounds on the UK Lottery, I would give Thorpe Park 5 million to get them to build a world class twister woodie, it would have fan turns, tunnels, airtime heaven hills and lots of speed and change of direction. Someone should build the Crystal Beach Cyclone or any lost "Harry Traver" coaster.
I went to Cedar Point and Kings Island I was in heaven and loved all the coasters they have in the parks. You are so lucky to have those rides.
I have just been to Heide Park and 6 Flags Holland and loved their coasters as well, at least you come out of your seat on the coasters at these 2 parks.
There is no "Airtime" on any UK coaster apart from Megaphobia and that makes me mad, why built a ride and you don't come out of your seat. "Pepsi Max Big one" for example, after the 1st drop its a boring ride so why pay £5 to ride it.
Blackpool should of designed it so it is an out and back with lots of airtime hills like "Nitro", this will make it more fun. but no we are not allowed and have to have a boring ride built.
Sorry for the moan but I am mad with UK Parks for not doing enough and building unique rides.
Love the video's you have on this website, very clear .
Keep up the good work.
