Fun launched family coaster with a rapid launch. Better acceleration than Red Force! Sure there are more thrilling rides elsewhere in the park, but that is missing the point of this ride. Appeals to a wide audience, won't scare them off, and might invite them onto the bigger stuff.

Back in 1999, this was one of the more local parks to me and therefore relatively accessible. The best feature was the first inversion; which gave an incredible view of the very long beach at Southport. Call me insane, I did one day go and ride this about 20-odd times in a row. That's enough SLC to satiate even the most desperate coaster fan!

Better than most of the BPB wooden coasters; not especially intense but was a lot of fun. Arguably could have been mothballed rather than destroyed while Amanda Thompson stabilised the finances of the family business. Rode this a lot in the early 2000's and probably the best ride in Southport at the time.

The LSM launch of Red Force doesn't deliver. Sure, it goes fast, but rate of change of speed is very poor. Your average hatchback can accelerate as fast as Red Force, consequently the ride is therefore about the huge hill instead. Gives a good blast of air and view from the top. Also, goggles on the front row, seriously? Don't be bloody daft. They aren't necessary on significantly longer and quicker rides. The trains are somewhat lurch and if you sit back flat to the seat you will bounce off-and-off it randomly and uncomfortably - sit forward to avoid this effect. Final "bonus" hill into the brakes is neat in principle but feels like you've just stacked your car into a wall. All things considered we're lucky to have a ride like this at all in Europe, but I can't rate it highly.

Millie is a corker of a ride. By hypercoaster standards, it lacks heavy-G in any direction, and occassionally is known to us as Millenium Forceless. It's all about the speed and height. Much fun to be had especially at sunset, but there are technically more forceful and better hypercoasters out there.

Arrow dynamics swansong, and a flawed masterpiece. This isn't a rollercoaster, it's an experience that happens to be a rollercoaster. If it didn't have the un-necessary wobble and calf-slapping trains it'd be perfection.

Timber ne paie pas de mine vu de l'extérieur, mais il s'agit d'un très bon coaster ! Le layout, bien que court n'est pas dénué d’intérêt. La drop est très efficace, en particulier à l'arrière ou elle est même assez surprenante. L’enchaînement de bosses inclinée est très amusant et est assez original. Enfin l’enchaînement de virage avant l'arrivée aux freins finaux reste assez intense et sympathique pour un coaster de ce gabarit. Les sensations globalement sont loin d'être extrêmes, mais on ressent tout de même des G positifs dans les virages et des G négatifs au sommet des bosses. La thématisation, bien que discrète est très sympathique et les trains sont de plus très confortables. En bref, une très bonne surprise que ce coaster, qui plaît à toute la famille, et aux visiteurs plus aguerris.

Azteka est un familial qui pourrait être beaucoup mieux s'il était plus fluide et au banking moins foireux... Le manque de confort nuit vraiment au plaisir du ride, qui possède un layout pas trop mal pour un familial. N'essayez pas de lever les mains, ou vous glisserez sur votre voisin(e)... Dommage.

Certe il s'agit d'un coaster familiale, mais le fait est qu'il manque cruellement d’intérêt. Les coaster familiaux ont tout autant à offrir que les coasters plus puissants, mais Le Tigre de Sibérie est trop peu intéressant. Drop en virage, remonté en virage, drop en virage et remonté en virage. Ce sont les uniques éléments du layout. Et c'est dommage car quelque figures en plus auraient permis à ce coaster d'être un très bon familial de part sa grande fluidité.
