I've just riden this twice in 15 minutes at early entry. Its absolutely fantastic nice and smooth. Front row and then back row. Front row is incredible. Iron gwazi still king for me though.

Well done to you and your daughter. 💖 After much encouragement (from several dibbers) I went on it on Thursday afternoon. It was the fastest ride I have ever been on and I spent more time upside down than the right side up. I also lost my voice from screaming so much 😂 My son and husband have ridden it multiple times - it is their favourite coaster!

Is there much comparison with Stealth at Thorpe Park? What I'm wondering is specifically regarding the seats and what, if any, protection is given to your neck?

I'm pretty tall, and on Stealth I really have to brace myself hard, as I have trouble getting my head/neck back far enough to rest against the seat. Never stops me riding it, but it is a little uncomfortable.

Hoping that makes sense...

I went on it but hated every minute. It was way too intense for me. I happily go on Everest, Space and RocknRoller coaster but this was a step too far for me! The other 2 I am with loved it though!

It's a lap bar whereas Stealth is an over the shoulder restraint.
Have you been on Icon in Blackpool? The Velocicoaster restraints looks similar to that.
I haven't ridden it yet, 23 days to go, I'm just a rollercoaster nerd and I've seen all the hype, especially about the lap bar!

I rode for the first time today, screamed myself hoarse 😂

It was pretty extreme but many be not as bad as I feared.

The lap bar was fine and I had been worried about that.

I love it. It is so smooooooooth! For a ride so fast with so many drops and barrel rolls it’s it amazingly smooth. Love it and literally about to cross parka for studios to go and queue for it!

I don't know if I am brave or stupid but trying this again. Going on shortly, really hoping giving it a second shot will make it feel better 🤣🙈

I've just come off it. Currently 35 min queues so my wife is taking the boys for a 2nd ride whilst I wait with the youngest.

We thought it was amazing. Lovely and smooth which is why coasters like this will always win over the likes of Iron G. I want speed and Gs and adrenaline...not to feel like someone has taken a bat to my knees, shoulders and neck.

Haha it was better the second time but I think its a bit jerky, mainly as I struggle to keep my head back at all times.


Finally on our 4th visit I have ridden Hagrids today, its my new fav ❤️
