  1. I'm not impressed by this at all. I just looks very pedestrian and far to similar to Behemoth. I'm not going to get to ride it for a long time yet, but I honestly can't see what all the excitement is about. Sure, it's tall, but so is MF and I305, but at least they have a bit more to them than a couple of big hills and a hammerhead turn. The exact same turn is on another B&M right across the park! Why not a bit of variety here? How about the turn on Shambhala? That would have looked awesome over the entrance to the park, or even a diving helix, at least something that would add to the length as well as separate it from Behemoth a bit more. And that break run just smacks of poor design. I'm not one to badmouth B&M, but this is a backward step from them in my opinion. It's like stopping the ride when it's still got some juice under the hood. When I first saw the POV I assumed it was a mid course as the train climbed up to it, but then it's all over?? When you've got a break run that is that high up and that long to get the train back to the station, it's just a wasted opportunity IMHO. I'll probably get grief for this post, and seeing as I'm not going to Canada anytime soon, I can't comment from experience, but just by looks and POV alone, this one's a dud.
  2. The Swarm at Thorpe Park on the first RCCGB trip of this year. Pretty good it is as well!
  3. Grand National's Red and Blue trains racing on the final straight, just before the finish line.
  4. The Big One, coasting the first hill after the drop.
  5. Take at this year's RCCGB Blackpool Bash, with an EOS500D and 300mm zoom lens. Taken from the station, toward the turnaround. The Big One, Blackpool
