1. Shambhala Love the openness of the trains and the expedition theme. Great floater airtime, not a very intense ride but I like that it has more to offer than just airtime hills, I love the inclusion of the splashdown element and the interaction with Dragon Kahn. * Honorable Mention: Leviathan...

The news report itself is pretty funny. "They should slow the roller coaster down, they won't scream as hard"

I don't imagine it being anything else than a retrack/referb, especially with the new name announcement before Kumba has even closed. I would of liked to have gotten a re-ride this October, but I can't say I'm surprised.

It's too big for It's own good to be fair. I remember walking around with a heavy backpack weighing me down and after about 30 minutes I had enough. On the way out I realised that there is an area which I could've drop my bag off ... I've bored myself with my own anecdote. In my experience I...

It's fast food all the way for me on solo trips, although I did go to Beavertails while in Canada - pushing the boat out there. When approached by a non-English speaker I often reply in their accent ... but in English. On a family holiday to Disneyland Paris we had McDonald's for our Christmas...

I wished I hadn't used up all my annual leave this year, if I could take the time off and wasn't saving up for Florida later this year I might have be able to go. I have no doubt that it'll go down as the world's greatest defuct coaster. Its a shame to miss out on it, but I guess it is what it is.

For the sake of a smaller business I hope this isn't true, but I would imagine Six Flags or even United Parks would be interested in having ArieForce One.

As much as it would've be great to get on Siren's Curse after missing out on it last year, sadly it's too far away for me to fly out of Toronto on the same day. Bingo. ______________________ Feeling usually impulsive I decided to book a coach trip to Niagara Falls as soon as I woke up...

#318 - Backlot Stunt Coaster This was sooo much better than I thought it would be. Looking at POV's it looks boring and decrepit, in reality it's far more exciting. I was surprised at how punchy the first launch was and also the forcefulness of the helix. The finale offers a nice pop of...

After a 20 minute Uber ride with some usually heavy topics brought up by the driver (it was a bit awkward) I arrived at the park around 9:30. Like most parks is North America there is a body scanner and a bag search, thankfully I got here before the crowds so this was a quick process. I liked...

I had 56 Hours. Just over two days to spend in a region over 3000 miles away. What was originally planned as a short hop to Germany somehow manifested into a transatlantic trek. If there wasn't an element of stupidity evolved then it just wouldn't be me, so on top of that I had the bright idea...

Out of the number one coasters I have had throughout the years, none of them were an instant hit. I guess the same can be said about my favourite music or food. Perhaps it's because most of us, as human beings, naturally prioritise what's familiar and anything that deviates from that we often...
