Coaster reviews

Fun

This thing runs ridiculously fast, and with it traversing past the buildings and over the flat ride area it feels a bit insane. Really good laugh for a powered coaster honestly.

First Drop Intensity Headbanging Theming

My favourite SLC in the country but it is rough particularly in the cobra rolls. The intensity of the first drop is nearly unrivalled in the uk, and is surprisingly dynamic through the layout (usually SLC's tend to pull consistently positive G's, this one due to the height of the loop adds a bit of flair). Theming is terrible, and the ride footprint messy. If it wasn't so headache inducing I would probalby have it in one of my top spots...

Nice surprise! Smoothness

A ride that was not on my radar, so ended up surprising me. I will preface in saying I think this is the perfect first 'big ride' either for the day, or for younger / inexperienced riders, as the intensity is not high at all but introduces you to a tall drop, verticle loop and helix. And from that perspective it does a really good job, with no jolting (as you may expect from an old vekoma). Has a unique layout with great vantage points, and I find it utterly rerideable with enough intensity to be enjoyable. It's not as thrilling as odyssey but not every ride needs to be that intense.

Capacity Discomfort Tear it down!

Awful, dreadful. Only cool thing is the lift hill mechanic, the rest is either painful or forceless. Feels like a saw trap.

Decent little family ride, get a good spin on when unbalanced and has a deceptive bit of force. Nothing special, but for a cred you won't feel embarrassed about getting - not bad.

Airtimes Launch Too short

Nice surprise. Good punchy launch, I think feels more intense because of the positioning and you get a good pop of airtime over the hill. A gimmick but does it well.

First Drop Smoothness Disappointing! Reliability

Disappointing one for me. I had often seen that Kumali was the best SLC in the country as it is considerably smoother. And it is, by no means a smooth ride but certainly is for an SLC. However, it is dreadfully unreliable with a massive amount of downtime (almost did not get the credit). And it is running incredibly slow, so slow infact I was certain it would valley at some point. Totally took away from the intensity that I actually love about the SLC model. Maybe on a good day when warmed up it is better, but for now it has seen better days.

First Drop Fun Hangtime Capacity Harness Discomfort

Extremely low throughput, which made for a long wait on a pretty quiet day. It does pack a punch and some of the hangtime moments feel ridiculous. However, the harnesses are some of the most uncomfortable I have encountererd and the lateral sections are insanely rough as a result. Well worth the ride, as it is very unique in the UK.

Lap Bar Nice surprise! Layout Theming

Theming is neat, but it's also very strange - just not a fan. The ride itself is just a superior version of colossus, miles smoother thanks to the lap bars and makes me love the ending rolls even more (big fan of hangtime over here). It is not the absolute smoothest, not a deal-breaker just an odd bit of rattle. Shame it is at Mingo land.

Airtimes Fun Layout Harness

Very unique being one of the 4 Togo Ultra Twisters left and the only one with a dive loop, cool design and really great hangtime on the dive loop
