Yes it is short, that is the nature of the ride. But it packs such a delicious punch. The drops almost feel like drop towers in intensity, and the positive g's through the loop will be a big hit for most. Probably the second best ride at the park, and really has stood the test of time for a reason. Have a trick, do it well = success.

I may upset people by saying I truly dislike this ride. Horrendously rough these days, the profiling on most elements leaves it feeling really quite forceless. I also do not find the first drop that intense, though again that could be the turnaround rattle affecting that. The best part is the view. However, I do think it could be redeemed with work, and hope management invests in improving the experience, especially since it is such an iconic coaster.

That mack launch is a little forceless, and when cold the ride is somewhat underwhelming. However, the proximity of this ride, and the intensity of the first 2/3 it's elite. Incredible smoothness with fantastic airtime and some really unique elements. Really shines on the ENSO seats (but they are an expensive experience). Fantastic ride imo, and deserves the kudos - nicely stylised too

I found this very uncomfortable, and I'll be frank the chain lift in particular is very clunky and not in good condition. Some good forces, but not one I want to ride again.

The capcity is poor, but you can't expect much else from these older brake operated rides. A piece of history that runs comparatively smooth, and is very re-rideable due to the difference between brake operators. The double downs give great airtime - overall I love it honestly.

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.

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...

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
