I've always thought the first drop was shockingly modern and intense for an Arrow, but then the rest of the layout is basically like an overgrown Jet Coaster.

It holds some lovely nostalgic memories for me - watching it being built from my house and school. Riding it for the first time as a kid, in the dark, at the back, with the old drop! It's certainly not aged well but it was a groundbreaking ride at the time and deserves its place in the history books.

@plecoarmy100 3 ай бұрын

Something I’ve noticed is how this thing manages to look like 3 different coasters in one. The track color and supports change at least 3 times lol

@sortascouseace 3 ай бұрын

The colour changes on the track are easy to explain, the big one gets partly retracked every year, if you see pale red that's old track, the brighter red is new track. The support change is to save space and also blend in with the theming of the train ride below the coaster. The reason they only do partial retracks is because pleasure beach has a very short closed season, from November to February/march and because the park itself is so dense it is a logistical nightmare to fit the new track.

Despite its excessive amounts of straight strack im all about speed so this coaster earned my respect not to mention the long layout and ride time which actually makes the ride worth waiting for

@Mina_Fox_90 Ай бұрын

That is one epic hypercoaster that goes mega-fast. I remember when I was playing the Loopy Landscapes expansion pack of RCT1 and when there would be scenarios with recreations of a few real-world amusement parks, including this one and the rides they had at the time.

Normally, it's normal to see bad transitions on an Arrow coasters, given that they were designed by hand back in the early 90s.

Is this 2 costers connected? FRFR? Why the color change?

@ethanshackleton 3 ай бұрын

They gradually replace the track rather than doing a retrack all at once, the paler stuff is older. So I guess you could class it as two coasters but it’s a ship of Theseus.

.I Rode this a ton of times. But not even close to my favorite ride. America has some amazing rides that just make this feel like a merry go round. The Intimidator 305 is amazing the drop and turn makes this seem like a wooden coaster. The Kinda Ka makes this ride height feel like a playground swing.

@nemesis8626 Ай бұрын

Comparing Kinda ka to this is stupid (no offence) there 2 completely different coaster designs, not every coaster is built just to be intense.

@leekay07 Ай бұрын

You don’t think it was made to be intense? I am pretty sure it opened as the worlds tallest roller coaster and at the time of opening was the worlds tallest and steepest coaster. If that is not your definition of intense thrill ride then I’m not sure what is. Like most things in Blackpool the ride has not aged well.

I think many parking ramps are steeper than the slopes on this ride. I have always wondered what were they thinking when they designed this, but this layout is such a waste of speed. This is a perfect example of how not to design a rollercoaster.
