Rage was a surprisingly smooth and comfortable coaster for it's age, with a great ejector filled drop and hangtime on all the inversions. It's a little short but I think about as much layout was packed in as possible.

I feel like there was more potential here, the theming is good and the coaster layout is fine but it has atrocious capacity for a Disney park and I feel like they could have a much better indoor family coaster.

A very underrated family coaster, very smooth and re-rideable as well as a great surprise ending that makes the ride well worth doing any time you're at Towers.

One of the best family coasters in Europe. Loved the ride system design and theming/storytelling throughout. It very impressive how Mack and Europa Park managed to make a ride so immersive and engaging that appeals to pretty much anyone.

Loved this coaster when I rode in 2019, also got a zen ride which is probably quite rare given the crowds Disneyland Paris gets. Very interesting launch and layout with fairly forceful inversions, solid indoor coaster.

A very long fun and fairly intense spinning coaster with a unique layout, the cars tend to spin quite fast more often than not so you're very likely to get a great spin whenever you ride it. The only downside is how busy it gets.

Only had one ride on it in 2023 but I'm glad I got to ride it before it closed. I quite enjoyed it however, especially the first drop and non-invertin...

Only had one ride on it in 2023 but I'm glad I got to ride it before it closed. I quite enjoyed it however, especially the first drop and non-inverting loop and the music was decent too.

Possibly controversial but this is the best family coaster in the UK. Its smooth, well themed and fairly intense, making for a great introductory coas...

Possibly controversial but this is the best family coaster in the UK. Its smooth, well themed and fairly intense, making for a great introductory coaster for kids. Rode it 10 times in my last trip to Paultons in May since it never has a queue.

Saw is quite a polarizing coaster but I've had quite good rides on it this year. The theming on the indoor section is good, the drops offer good ejector airtime and the coaster layout itself is great so long as you brace yourself throughout.

This coaster really surprised me as it was much faster than I was expecting. The turns and helixes were all whippy and offered good laterals. The theming was also very good and the on board audio was a nice feature that enhanced the ride further.

The launch is decent with nice force but the rest of the layout is so shaky and induces some pretty bad headbanging. Towers would really benefit from ...

The launch is decent with nice force but the rest of the layout is so shaky and induces some pretty bad headbanging. Towers would really benefit from having a longer, modern launch coaster with LSMs like Taron that could have tonnes of airtime and easily be the new signature ride at the park.

The best Maurer spinner I've done, the tricks are very quirky and the coaster as a whole packs some solid spinning and forces. I didn't try Fear side though which I've heard is better.

Oblivion is probably the best possible example of a gimmick. It may just one drop but that drop is other worldly, offering excellent floater airtime all the way down. It would be better if it were longer but there is no doubt that it's a great coaster.

Easily the world's best mine train, the forces you get in the back car do not feel like forces a family coaster should be capable of. Great moments of sustained airtime and laterals, not to be missed at Phantasialand.

An excellent family thrill woodie, rode it several times at night and it offered some fantastic airtime and laterals. Don't miss Fun Spot when you're in Orlando.

Ice Breaker was the sleeper hit of Florida for me and it's the coaster I think is most underrated. Every hill and drop has sustained ejector airtime and the swing launch offers varying sensations and a unique build up. Don't miss it when you're at SeaWorld Orlando.

It's mostly a dark ride but the two coaster sections it has are decent and unpredictable if you've never been on it. Quite impressive and ahead of it's time for 2014.

Sik is definitely the best coaster at Flamingo Land and offers mostly good inversions and forces, but the heartline rolls really hurt my waist with the lap bar for some reason. The fact it only has one train doesn't help either given that it's the park's signature coaster but it's mostly solid.

This was my first coaster with inversions and I loved it when i first rode it, but now, its probably my least favourite major ride at Towers. Its smooth and has some nice forces but it seems to meander a lot in between. I can mostly look past this however since it was B&M's first attempt at a flying coaster and they were limited to the treeline height.

It's been a while since I rode it but I really enjoyed Thunder Mountain for it's fantastic theming and fun coaster experience. It also gave very good night rides.

In 2022, I wasn't the biggest fan of Khan since it has a rattle and some headbanging but this year, I got to ride it again in the front row and had much better rides overall where I could fully appreciate the intense forces it offers.

Loved Tron, the atmosphere and theming was very nice and the launch was more intense than I expected. My only con is that it's a little short especially for a Disney coaster. I also rode this for the first time on Halloween funnily enough.

My favourite ride at Studios, had great theming mixed with a fun fairly intense coaster section, I won't give spoilers but the tricks it has are brilliant.

Cheetah Hunt gets too much hate. It's such a fun coaster with a long layout and a wide selection of forces. The airtime it has is good ejector, the heartline roll has great hangtime and the s bends offer great varied laterals.

This coaster redefined standing airtime. Had two epic front row rides on it and I love the gimmick of the surf coaster. I didn't expect this to be my second favourite ride at SeaWorld Orlando but Pipeline makes me excited for the future of the surf coaster.

Expedition Everest lived up to the hype and was a very enjoyable coaster offering great theming and a purely fun ride experience. I just wish that the yeti animatronic would work as that would elevate the ride even more.
