This one was decent. I haven't ridden it before the re-tracking process but you can tell it's pretty smooth and the refurbishment was worth it. It has an excellent duration and never had a line when I showed up. One of the main downsides is it's confusing to locate. You're supposed to walk through a general store to get to it which is a weird concept. Being on the edge of the park and surrounded by trees is a nice touch though but I feel like that general store isn't necessary and they can just remove it and make the path themed or something. I also didn't get as much airtime as people stated in their reviews. My train was very empty and I was in the back row for the first drop so maybe I could have experienced better airtime up front. Still a decent coaster and I'd be happy to ride again during my next visit. 3/5 stars

ride has a great launch and it is very unique being the only vekoma booster bike coaster in the uk and the only one in the world with a custom layout. the launch is very fun and has a lot of force. sadly, apart from some fun airtime hills at the end there isn't much else but still a very fun ride, albeit short. out of the 5 coasters this was my 2nd favourite.

ride is the best in flamingo land. the lifthill is extremely speedy and the inversions are great fun. the lap bars are ok but it can be painful on your thighs going through the quad inline twist section. the station has a great vibe too, staff are energetic, friendly and the edm music playing does add that excitement to the ride.

If Fury is the perfect giga coaster, I305 is the absolutely insane and deranged sibling that tries to kill you and is somehow better for it. If you trade a varied and majestic layout for insane intensity and laterals so strong they give you airtime, you get this monster. Some may say that the over-the-shoulder restraints hurt this ride's quality, but I firmly believe lap bars on this thing would result in countless spinal injuries. To this day this is the only coaster I am ever scared to ride. The sheer power and intensity is downright horrifying, but that's what makes the ride so good; there is no other coaster like this one on the planet and there never will be. 10/10 - as of my last visit I can officially say I have fully passed out on this thing! Do not ride this coaster 3 times-back-to-back dehydrated and on an empty stomach

worst coaster in britain by far. painful on the shoulders and you bang your sides a lot because you're not strapped into anything really. turns are extremely jolty and there's way too much speed on the inversions.

At the risk of sounding like an incredibly whiny thoosie, this ride could actually be so much better. For whatever reason Wilderness Run at Carowinds is substantially better in every regard. It actually has some forces and is substantially longer, while GPC is pretty much nothing at all. I totally understand I'm not the target audience, but the kids deserve better. 2/10 - it only took 3 different visits for me to finally be allowed to get this credit

Twisted Timbers is probably the best ride in the world for pure ejector. Practically every element is profiled flawlessly to provide incredible moments of airtime, especially that iconic triple camelback. There isn't much else going on in this layout, however. Aside from a few funky laterals and great hangtime in the front row of the first drop, this ride is just airtime after airtime after airtime. But that airtime is exceptional, so I can't complain. This ride being in the same park as the best ride in the world for positive Gs is a truly insane one-two punch. 10/10 - literally what is that big ping pong ball in queue

Balder is just awesome! What a magnificent coaster! Yes the layout is repetitive but that is the best thing! It’s just ejector after ejector! My first ride was in the back row and after that ride I knew it was going to be hard to beat. And I won’t even start to talk about the smoothness! It’s just wonderful how you comfortably get thrown out of your seat on the first drop!
