Airtimes Launch Intensity
When you're entering Thorpe Park, or even driving up to or near it, you can see the white top hat of Stealth poking up in the skyline. Around the park, you hear it launching, you see it from everywhere. I don't think any ride in the UK has such presence. Even the queue is intense, watching it go and hearing the mechanics of the launch. And then it's your turn. And it's crazy. That launch is mad, the air over the top hat is great, the drop is intense and the speed hill delivers a great ejector moment. Yes it's over very fast, but it doesn't need more. A crazy ride, and one we're very lucky to have in this country

Launch Intensity
That launch is outstanding, along with in the back the pull over the top hat, and entry into the speed hill are very strong airtime moments. A great adrenaline rush.

Launch Intensity Smoothness Too short
This is almost a perfect launch coaster - almost. The launch is extremely snappy with great initial acceleration, you get some nice airtime and the sense of speed is very strong as you travel up and down the top hat - but that’s the thing - it’s just a top hat. While I love Stealth the way it is, I’d have loved to have seen some Xcelerator style overbanks after the top hat to make it feel complete. Even with that said, I personally give it a 9.5 out of 10.

Launch Ejectors Too short Harness
Not a lot to say about Stelf. Power, power and more power = fun, but not world class. The trains are poor, and don't do a lot with the energy. If you can catch it close to park close you can often get a series of repeat rides in quick succession, which resolves the too-short problem! Oh yes, and it's a lot better than Kingda Ka :-P

Launch Fun Intensity
Stealth is a brilliant coaster, with a powerful launch as well as an intense drop. Queue times are always surprisingly short, and the theming- especially the radio station with 60’s songs- fits the ride perfectly. I could ride Stealth over and over again and never get bored of that launch and top hat!

Airtimes Launch Intensity Too short Reliability
Last time I was here I went on about the coaster having a rattle but today that rattle mysteriously disappeared which is a warm welcome from me. Great coaster.

Airtimes Launch Too short Theming Harness
Dull ride. Ends way too quickly. Needs lapbars really. Way too empty of an area as well.

Airtimes Launch Intensity Too short
Very intense. I feel satisfied every time. I preferred Stealth to Kingda Ka. The launch is punchy, the incline is sharp and forceful, the twists are sharp, the airtime at the tophat is insane at the front and back, the drop is insane and the bunny hop packs strong airtime. Overall, smooth and intense coaster, very comfortable and visually stunning. The theme is perfect and the countdown is class.

Best Coaster at the park. 0-80 in 2.3 seconds! 205feet tall. Awesome coaster. The only bad thing is that is is only 26 seconds but it is a launch coaster, so who cares. Check out are review of STELTH on our YouTube channel.

Airtimes Launch Fun Rattle Too short
Short but very sweet! Stealth is a fantastic ride despite its length, packing a great punch with its height, speed and intense launch. Recently, it has developed a pretty uncomfortable rattle towards the back, so aim for a front row ride for the best experience.

Airtimes Launch Intensity
My personal favourite ride at Thorpe Park (at the moment) it’s amazing launch is far better than Red Forces and it’s nice floater airtime on the top hat. There was also a good moment of ejector leading into the brake run. This ride has nothing on red force but it is still a fantastic rollercoaster.

Airtimes Theming Launch Too short
Stealth has a superb launch - possibly the best that I have ridden and contray to what other people seem to think the harnesses are alright too, not great but you don't headbang so who really cares. Super smooth and the WWTP radio station is a brilliant part of the rides theming (and that entrance is awesome too!) obviously main flaw is how short it is.

Great fun, definitely the strongest launch I've felt and also my favorite launch.
-
Airtimes First Drop Launch Discomfort
Does what it does well. Good powerful launch, height and drop with plenty of airtime over the top especially if you sit at the back. Only real downside is the transition from the launch into the uphill - the forces can be uncomfortable if you're leaning forward.
-
Launch Intensity Too short
0 stars due to placing higher than red force which I cannot understand. When more realistically its a solid 4 and a half
-
Launch Intensity Ejectors Too short
Stealth is an immense coaster. It packs a hell of a punch in its launch, the positive Gs in its valleys, and the negative Gs at the top hat and airtime hill. It's over quickly but what it has is always brilliant fun.
