Airtimes Inversions Hangtime Theming

Incredible coaster, finally the UK has a hyper coaster that is actually a fun ride full of airtime, hang time and inversions, a ride that genuinely competes on an international scale. For 30 years Nemesis has clung onto my UK number one spot, but not any more, Hyperia is on a whole different level to Nemesis. I don't like the silly banked turn out of the station, seems pointless. The lift hill is nice and quick and offers great views. The drop is incredible, beating my previous favourite drop, Hyperion's, to become my new favourite first drop. The immelman gives some good airtime. The outerbanked turn into the roll is insane, offerining sustained airtime all the way through it. The stall is up there with the best RMC stalls. The stengel is great too. Only part of the main layout that's a little disappointing is the final bunny hop, expected short strong ejector, but it's a little weak. Ride does not feel as short as you expect it too, a satisfying length because almost every element hits so hard. Theming lets the ride down a little. Area looks great imo, but the queue could do with a little more work. The station is the biggest issue, looks great at night, with lighting, smoke and projections. But in the day time it just doesn't work, and we could use some more physical theming elements in the station.
