Airtime, airtime, airtime! Twisted Timbers has some of the strongest airtime I have ever experienced. Every element gives some form of airtime. The ops for this ride are awesome as well.

This ride is absolutely incredible, I had an idea of what to expect going in and it still shocked me. I hope they can smooth the ride a little, especially that second raven turn is seriously rough. Going up the lift hill overlooking the park at sunset was so picturesque.

Welcome to Siren's Curse Junior! Circuit Breaker is super smooth, has some great inversions with a nice hang time moment. The onboard audio is fun (soundtracks make any coaster better). Yes, Circuit Breaker is short, but it still packs a lot in. Front row has that lovely tilt view and flows through the layout. The back row has the added fun of being lifted high into the air and gives you a bit more intensity throughout. The lighting package makes night rides a must-do. Austin needed a great coaster, and now it has one!

Shockwave was an interesting ride because the novelty of the stand up riding position glossed very heavily over the dull and bland layout. Now, as the Wave, they have removed the best aspect of the ride and we're left with 30 year old straight track with 3 clunky inversions that do nothing as a sit down, with only the frankly excellent zero g roll redeeming anything at all. The new train is comfortable enough but it definitely has a rattle, that is probably the old track more than anything but adding rattle to boring doesn't make for a good ride. Ops are typically terrible as well, Drayton have no interest in you having a good day. If they were that intent on removing the stand up, they should've just taken the ride out and put a better replacement in, as it stands sit down wave is just a boring way to waste 2 minutes

Europe, and even just the UK, has some excellent family coasters. Gold Rush is not one of them. This is the most overrated ride going. Clearly Drayton were more interested in wasting money on switch tracks and different modes (not that it actually seems to run the 2nd mode much) than just building a good ride. The admittedly pretty fun and snappy middle run, traversed twice, is sandwiched between 2 sections that do absolutely nothing at all, as the train takes the elements too slowly because it crawls off the lift, and the final launch actually feels like it trims straight after it launches. And the 1m height restriction is no excuse, not when Storm Chaser is in the country. And don't even mention Macalodon in the same sentence. The theming is kinda fun but also very tacky. Ops are dreadful as well, so slow, and it would seem the days of it running 2 trains are gone already, its only had 1 full season. Very disappointing really
