Rattlesnake • Chessington World of Adventures

Theming Rattle Discomfort Lap Bar

Ouch. There is literally no reason for a ride this painful to have ever been built, but it was. The theming is the only good part of this ride, other than that it is painful, boring and always has long queues. Despite being a wild mouse Rattlesnake has absolutely ZERO airtime because of the tight lap bars which crush you into the seats. The only reason I think Chessington shouldn't remove this ride is because it takes up a lot of people in the queues and that is what Chessington needs.

First Drop Pace Fun

People complaining about "discomfort" make me laugh. Haven't you read the name of the ride? It is supposed to be like that, it's part of the experience! If you don't like these kind of rides, just don't ride them! It is fast, long and very well themed! Unfortunately it breaks down quite a lot, but all in all it's very enjoyable

Pace Fun Capacity Discomfort

Completely standard wild mouse, with some nice mexico/western style theming. A few amusing props down in the queue, and plenty of sheds around the layout. It runs pretty fast too, not a lot of trimming most days. It's certainly not a comfortable ride though, the lap bars are bulky and very solid, meaning when you hit the instantaneous brakes you get thrown straight into them. And it's even worse if you're on your own in a row, where the centre bar is between your legs. Yeah, ouch. Capacity is also abysmal in a park which gets very busy. Kinda fun though, apart from the ball crushing

Theming Fun Rattle Capacity Disappointing!

Alright, this is a fun ride and has some good theming and scenery in it but there is a lot of problems. I'm not waiting more thank 20 minutes for it ever again. It was very dissappointing after waiting 45 minutes when we could've just re-rode dragons fury... and queue was EXTREMELY slow due to capacity and as by the name, it has a rattle. But it was ok, pretty fun wild mouse kind of coaster and overall just meh.

My god this thing was bad. I might have to re-ride, but it felt like it was trying to rip my organs out my butt.

Theming Fun Ejectors Discomfort

A well paced, fun wild mouse with great on ride interactions with themeing like headchoppers. With a loose restraint, you almost come flying out of your seat and slipping beneath the restraint on some of the drops and hills. However, the ride is very uncomfortable due to the tight turns.

Theming Fun Harness Discomfort

Switchbacks aren't too wild, but the dips are fun with some good floater, but the brake runs can be brutal, with floater airtime going into them, the brakes launches you into your bulky lap bar.

Theming Fun Capacity

I find this coaster to be very fun, the turns are tight and the drops are sharp with headchopper into the tunnels. However a ride with this low capacity shouldn't be at Chessington which is a park that desperately needs high capacity rides. I've seen this ride hit a 90 minute queue several times.

Intensity Capacity Discomfort Layout

This ride can really hurt. All the brakes are sharp and throw you around. Although some of the drops are fun, I find this more painful than fun. It can also develop quite a long queue due to poor throughput.

Airtimes Theming Fun Dead spots

You can get some good airtime on the drops. Fun coaster but it's a pretty standard steel wild mouse. Decently well themed.

Fun Capacity

Rough as usual for most Wild Mouses. Broken hip might not have helped, though. Plus very, very low capacity added to those damn TV ads for Chessington premium experiences... Some efforts of theming to be noted.

Theming Disappointing! Discomfort Pointless

This ride you sit low in the car. It is quite rough.
