Launch Fun Hangtime Lap Bar

Rode the same model in Finland and enjoyed them both - yes it is a short ride but it packs in a good amount of intensity for it's size. I think the front is more fun as you get pushed into the hills by the launches. Lap bar is a bit uncomfortable but I didn't find it too bad

Airtimes Primera caída Ejectors Capacidad

I rode both the front and the back and enjoyed both. The front was amazing for the first drop, the back definitely more intense with whip over the airtime hills. Small amount of rattle but not bad for its age. Equal place to Kondaa for me - Kondaa is way smoother but a bit less intense. Sunday in April, no queues which was a good thing because the capacity is poor - one train operation every 5 mins.

Primera caída Demasiado corto Capacidad

Quite a fun family boomerang but suffers from the usual boomerang issues - too short and poor capacity. First drop is decent but not much to say after that.

¡Buena sorpresa! Velocidad Fun Incomodidad

This was my favourite of the two, although shorter and a bit less intense than Fear, I thought the surprises were more fun. Both coasters changed my opinion of spinning coasters - often they give me a headache but on this one the spinning felt controlled and not too dizzying.

Fun Intensidad Duración Incomodidad

Best train coaster I have ridden, packs in a lot of intensity, especially at the back of the train. Lots of surprises and a great dark section. Very long with 3 lift hills. Thoroughly enjoyed this one. Only problem is the seats which are very uncomfortable.

Velocidad Intensidad Demasiado corto Arnés

Enjoyed this and to me felt comparable to Nemesis Inferno. A good fun ride but nothing special for me.

Tematización Fun Suavidad Intensidad

Best flying coaster I've ridden! Worlds above Galactica at Alton Towers. I enjoyed the pre-ride section and the transition from sitting upright to flying. Very smooth and a lot of fun. For me would be made better by some bigger drops. Theming is incredible in this area.

Comodidad Launch Fun Tiempo muerto

First ride was at the back, felt it was a lot of fun and the launches were impressive but overall lacked some intensity. But then I rode it in the front row and it was like a different ride - much more intense and so much speed on the launches. Only con for me was some dead spots and general lack of airtime.

Fun Tiempo muerto Lap Bar

My first bobsleigh ride and I thought it was a fun one. Followed the advice in the reviews to ride alone, and stay sitting a bit forwards not touching the backrest and this helped the comfort a lot. Due to capacity there are a lot of break runs which does create some dead spots, but overall it was still a fun ride for me.

Primera caída Intensidad Vibración

Was expecting a lot worse given the reviews, actually enjoyed this a lot! Yes you have to brace the whole time to avoid head banging, but it has great intensity and the first drop is fab. Probably wouldn’t queue for it though

Fun Layout Tiempo muerto

A very fun family coaster, with some forces and some fun drops. I can imagine capacity is a problem on busy days, but on our visit we didn’t have to queue

Inversiones Intensidad Vibración Torta Capacidad

Lots of head banging and rattle but don’t think it deserves the 4% rating. It’s very intense and had some fun moments but I did find myself focussing a lot on bracing. Could be improved a lot simply by a comfier harness and headrest.

Launch Fun

Perfect ride for a hot day like today! Great launches and a lot of fun getting soaked, although if you stay near the front in the middle seats you won’t get too wet. Edge seats at the back for a full soaking.

¡Buena sorpresa! Fun Demasiado corto

Fun launch and great loop in the dark. I thought however that at the end of the backwards section it could have been more intense, it barely went up the final spike tunnel. Good fun to ride a few times with no queue, probably wouldn’t ride on a busy day.

Airtimes Fun Ejectors Vibración Incomodidad

Yes it has a rattle but the seats are very soft - I think the rattle adds to the intensity here, it never stops being thrilling and gives amazing airtime, particularly in the back car, especially if you set your lap bar slightly higher. Given the reviews I was expecting to not enjoy this much but it’s actually my favourite of the woodies I’ve ridden.

Airtimes Primera caída Ejectors

Really enjoyed this coaster but think it’s world ranking is probably a bit high. Riding in the back gave the best intensity on the first drop and lots of ejector airtime throughout, but I did feel after the first 2 drops the intensity lessened a lot. Some fun airtime hills at the end and some good forces in this section. It a great coaster but has nothing on Toutatis in Parc Asterix for example which is an Intamin masterpiece.

Demasiado corto Tiempo muerto

Ok kiddie coaster, but there are more exciting ones out there with similar intensity

Fun Duración Tiempo muerto

Fun family ride, but I preferred Tiki-Waka. Good length though and some fun drops.

Inversiones Velocidad Intensidad Vibración

I love this ride, great length, very intense and brilliant inversions. Sometimes there is no rattle at all, and sometimes the rattle does make it a bit uncomfortable - not sure if this is due to positioning in the train or certain trains. Best coaster at Alton Towers in my opinion, closely followed by Nemesis.

Airtimes Comodidad Ejectors

Fantastic coaster, my favourite that I've ridden so far! The initial section with the hangtime inversion is great fun, and then you move into the main triple launch, which is super intense but still very comfortable thanks to great restraints. So much airtime and a great layout, and the comfort means you can ride it over and over. Rode it 4 times on my visit. Single rider queue was a good option.

Airtimes Vibración Incomodidad Layout

Good first drop but overall found the rattle and discomfort a bit much for me. Train could also have been more comfortable. Line was very long despite being there on a quiet weekday.

Airtimes Fun Layout Tiempo muerto

For a family coaster I thought this was excellent and rode it 3 times. Not much intensity but loads of fun, a great introduction for those new to thrill rides! Some decent airtime when riding at the back.

Primera caída Comodidad Layout

Great inverted coaster - I particularly loved the first drop, and thought the layout was fun. Small amount of rattle but overall very comfortable! Rode this one twice.

Situación Intensidad Vibración Torta

Given the reviews I was expecting this to be a lot worse. The headrests are very soft so as long as you brace for the ride duration you can avoid too much headbanging. I thought this ride had good intensity and a fun first drop. Visited on a weekday so no queue - don't think I would bother queuing for a long time to ride it.
