    First Drop Situation Intensité

    Oblivion is so underrated. I don’t care how long the ride is, it does one thing and it does it perfectly. The drop is very intense and even though it isn’t vertical (despite it feels like it) it still packs a punch and it’s one of the best rides in the UK

    Galactica is a great ride, very smooth and a good stepping stone for those wanting to overcome their fear of coasters. Don't expect anything intense its just a smooth and enjoyable ride

    Airtimes Théma Inconfort

    Good ride, nice moments of airtime and the theming is incredible, just feel like this ride is very overrated, its also a little uncomfortable. Not a bad ride just really overrated for me

    Théma Inversions Intensité

    The best coaster in the UK. Gotta love a whippy invert that's relentless in what it does. Incredible ride, there's even some airtime on the first drop. Love it so much

    Airtimes Fun Hangtime

    Great fun, especially at the back later in the day. The junior immelmann after the second launch is fantastic. I found Enso to be a great addition, although overpriced. Best airtime in the UK.

    Vitesse Fun Intensité Trop court

    Still an absolute beast all these years later. Excellent interaction with the terrain, intense from start to finish. It's just too short.

    First Drop Inversions Vitesse Temps mort

    Probably my favourite ride at Thorpe Park, I've been a big fan of this one since I first rode it on it's opening year. The theming is cool and they have made changes to the audio over the years which has kept it fresh each time I've visited. I like that this ride has a slightly different feel depending on which side you sit, and the first drop is totally different depending on that. It feels a little too short but in the off season that's no real issue as you can board it again almost immediately after getting off. I don't find the restraints particularly uncomfortable while in motion, nor do I find the ride to be bouncy as some others have. The inversions are all pretty good, and the roll over the station is one of my favourite elements of the ride. However, the wait to get back to the station at the end can often feel a little jarring and you start to notice the tightness of the restraints here.

    Inversions Fun Layout Baffes

    Colossus is one of my favourite UK coasters. It's now in its 20th year of operation and yes, it's a little rickety now. But it's a fantastic coaster overall with some excellent inversions and that heartline roll at the end is one of my favourite parts of any coaster. The queue times can sometimes get a little high as it's the first coaster you really come to in the park, but it's always worth it. It's definitely worth queuing for the front on this one as the further back you sit, the more it's going to bang your head about, and the leg room is much more adequate in the front seat!

    Lap Bar Déception ! Sans intérêt

    I have quite fond memories of when this ride was known as X. It's a much smaller coaster than others in the park but the theming when it was X was really interesting, and the ride itself had a cool feel to it. As The Walking Dead however, the theming feels a little flat. The entrance to the ride now has a large cattle pen outside with nothing really happening, you then enter a room where a slightly cringey video plays and then walk through some more corridors with absolutely nothing happening (besides struggling to see where you're actually going) and then you arrive at a station where you're obviously supposed to feel some urgency but the atmosphere just feels a little lacking. The ride itself is decent, I'm a fan of dark rides so that's a plus for this, however I feel the ride itself was much better as X. Overall it was a bit disappointing as The Walking Dead, which is a shame as I felt X was a decent little ride. Big step backwards for me, personally.
