same here - to a novice like myself it seams a good a reason to visit (in a rush) as any of the coasters. I've seen a video of the mechanism of it all going on and that also looks very sadly yet blissfully cool to me

Been wondering if theres any updated news for these rides Are they going to soon just be native to Japan or are they endangered there as well?

Stealth @ Thorpe Park [in the dark]

When you say 17 parks in 14 days, i could almost understand that if there was a teleport available. But how do you manage with with coaches - do you spend nights traveling?

Id be happy with ones you are considering. Im sure that Denmark isn't deamed mainland but i would like to know if the new coaster for 2008 is tempting you at all :]

Now don't laugh cause i haven't got a lot to chose from and cant just knock of of of the beasts from the US or the like. But anyway its the Revolution at Pleasure Beach Blackpool. A coaster thats old and are/were many all over the place. Its the backwards airtime, and the fact its pushed. Unless your to boffined up on its dimensions, layout and timing you don't know when it is in daylight, Not very hard but theres still a bit of force to it that isn't its own momentum. On a side note i think the supports are ace. I guess theres oblivion but thats probably shorter than this.... The arrow marks the spot. Main image is from www.rcdb.com. logo for different ride with same name covering the XXX bits from TPR! All Hail Google and Paint.

Hi! How nice of you, and hello!. I must seam really scummy for doing the opposite. For those that thought that i wont impose to change your mind so you can stare at this smiley For anyone else (hopefully everyone) then that smiley is actually cress growing inside a miniature bio dome. My actual name is Ben and have wasted a lot of my life not going to theme parks and over the last few years have been trying to make up for that cause there fairy dam ace. Even the crappy bits. (I really like X:/ No Way Out and thats terrible! (don't see it as a coaster but a really odd dark ride where the queue used to be a dark wiggles world type thing)). However i live in the UK and feel the need to 'make do' (and was very new to theme parks when i 1st went on it and the spinning tunnel was working). Hit my 40th coaster a few weeks back and would like to improve that so i don't feel the need to count the clown oval coaster at PBB in there (although going though the drum was cool) I also really like using brackets like these (the curvy ones as i save the square ones for non picture smiley's [: ) and often use them where you may think a full stop should go but i sometimes actually talk like that. If Robb wants to moan i have a list of at least 3 typos in the chat transcript from the other day() Dont worry bout meeting me if you o as i wont have a keyboard handy and will be fairly docile. Burritos are lush, my 3 cats all have very different meows and i just had some ice cream. Theres also a new south park episode out in a couple of days, (www.mrtwig.net will have a link for a torrent. Many other places will to but this has the best domain name). I had more but it was wanky so got rid of it I don't scream on rides but i do think this really really hard.

Excellent - although its great to go with a bunch of people with mixed experiences (and some that know it all - go Elissa & Robb (nutbags)) loads of people, like myself get to coaster whore loads and experience all of this with likewise nutbags in training. I've had to do far to much of this myself. Its loads better with a few people so imagine what loads of enthusiasts will be like Apart from one Walibi (not even a Disneyland) I've never set foot out of my home country, who else will this all be new too?

Its been said they will never go above 100 people again for any trip. But the suspense is killing me of if I get to be one of the lucky few to go As that information is not ready to be released yet do I also take it it is too soon to speculate on the other parks and rides that are not listed in the flyers?? Pictures on the web of a bird with a hat releasing green goo into the wide open mouth of an alligator is one thing, but actually riding a coaster that farts on you is another that I dearly want to partake in :] :] http://bonbon.net.dynamicweb.dk/Files/Billeder/Andre%20Billeder/hundeprut.jpg

My Favorite 3 are Rush (S&S swing @ Thorpe park) Ice Blast (S&S space shot @ PBBlackpool) Some fairground version of PBB Spin Doctor (I can see McDonald's from here!!) You cant make me chose!!! but seeing as thats the point in the thread its the swing. Always loved the pirate ship versions and the sound it makes is great Has anyone ridden that and Skyhawk and want to tell me how much better Cedar Points version is to make the agonizing wait to get there worse Rush @ Thorpe Park http://freizeitpark-welt.de/freizeitparks/thorpe_park/tp_start.php?id=903

Spinball Whizzer at Alton Towers 15/09/07 sometime after they closed the queue otherwise i would have been stuck with Nemesis But it made it my 40th coaster. Weeeee!!! Spinball Whizzer @ Alton Towers (photo from www.towerstimes.co.uk)

Mwahahahaha wanted to go round Germany next year anyway and look what TPR did, stuffed it full of weight gain 4000 and made it into a beefcake. This looked so good i put my deposit in before getting to the end of this thread and making my 1st post Is there anywhere i can go to get to know the people ill hopefully be going with?
