    Airtimes Bonne suprise ! Fun Vibrations Débit

    Of the Blackpool woodies, Nick Streak is by a distance the most enjoyable, it's not as extreme as the Nash but still offers some airtime towards the back of the train, some laterals, and crucially, isn't anywhere near as rough. It's not smooth of course, this is Blackpool, but certainly not so rough that you can't enjoy it. Best to ride first thing though, only one train on this one so the queue can build up!

    First Drop Ejectors Inconfort Lap Bar

    The key thing for the Nash is whether the excellent layout and airtime is able to supersede how unbelievably brutal it is. If it does, you'll enjoy it very much, as the airtime really is great, strong laterals on the turns as well. If it doesn't, then the constant bouncing, the slamming down in the valleys, the very tight trains and the general pain you experience really is not good. For me it's very much teetering on the edge, it's definitely far too rough and would massively benefit from a full rework, this layout with a sensitive GCI rework and new trains would be fantastic. But the redeeming ejectors do at least mean there is some level of fun to be had.

    Bonne suprise ! Fun Vibrations Trop court

    One of the better rides at the park, which doesn't say a lot for what else is there. But Avalanche is fun, picks up some great speed as it descends the track, some nice transitions, nice and comfortable as well, being solo in the car gives you acres of space. It is short though, and had a pretty severe rattle on my latest ride, not painful but very annoying. Still, a good family coaster and unique in the UK

    Intensité Fluidité

    Very short, very simple ride, but fans of intensity will absolutely love this, the g's on the backwards run are very strong, nice pop of air when you leave each of the raised platform, and one of the smoothest rides going, not a hint of rattle or headbanging. One trick pony and obviously short, but good fun nonetheless

    Inconfort A raser ! Sans intérêt

    Some rides are bad because they're boring, or painful, or terribly profiled. Some rides suck but at least have one or two slight redeeming qualities. The Big One is a ride that is all of those terrible things, and has absolutely no redeeming qualities whatsoever. All that height and speed completely wasted on a layout which delivers nothing but pain, that first drop ruined by the profiling and sheer roughness of the track. Hills and turns which offer no airtime, no force, nothing but endless bouncing and slamming side to side. Somehow the sections that have been retracked are even worse than the sections that haven't been retracked. The whole thing is a massive, long, painful piece of shit, which admittedly seems apt for BPB. Somehow my recent ride on a non-wheel seat was even worse than my wheel seat first rides a few years back. One ride which I can safely say I will never ride again in it's current form, i'd actually rather be attacked by tigers.

    Lap Bar Chef d'oeuvre Ejectors

    Icon really is an elite ride, which is strange to say when it's at the toilet that is BPB. I'm a massive fan of Mack Rides thrill coasters in general, and this one delivers some fantastic ejector airtime, some whippy transitions, a fantastic hangtime-filled heartline roll and a few moments of good positives. Highlights for me are the top hat after the first launch, the junior Immelmann, the 2 bunny hops before the second launch, and the classic airtime hill in the second half, all deliver some excellent airtime, particularly in the back row. Which is the best spot I think, either the ordinary back row with the slightly larger seats which enhances the airtime, or of course on the absolutely superb Enso car, which really elevated the experience a lot, Shame it's so expensive though. Icon really is awesome, one of the best rides in the country and the only ride at BPB which would make me want to return to ride it!

    Confort Harnais Fluidité Intensité

    Without a doubt the best Ride at Walibi Belgium. It's as smooth as a silk towel, the layout is ultra harmonic. Maybe this is exactly, what makes it feel not as intense and overwhelming as expected. The harmonic turns are not sharp enough to rip you out of your seat, even the bunny hills at the end are no ejectors. The non-inverting-cobra-roll is only in the backrow at the last part (dive-loop) intense. All in all a very well manufactured ride, but in my opinion only reridable a few times before becoming "normal".

    Longueur Déception !

    The only reason Duration is in the "good" tab is because the ride extends itself by coming to an almost full stop on every trim brake

    Not that good and not much airtime to be found
