@@EjectorBeartime since the first drawings I’ve wondered why such a new modern looking coaster has such ugly supports, not just the ‘gold’ but the shape of the structure. It seems both over engineered and under thought, I assume having multiple track elements share structure cuts down on cost and that’s the case fair enough I guess, adding to the theming cut backs it seems the project had a very strict budget from day one. I just sometimes wish Merlin would put up that bit extra and allow a project to go a little over budget to polish things off.

I think maybe just how much it disappointed me made me be very harsh on it, but there wasn't anything about it I liked. It's pretty rare that I'm sitting on a coaster hoping it's over soon, but the Big One hurt and I wasn't getting any force to make it worth the pain.

@@MaloneysCoasters Yeah I get that feeling from riding the Big One. I got to ride it before its reprofile in 1997 and the first drop was something else. Must admit after seeing the full list happy to see ICON near the top, and it was no doubt Hyperia would be top of the list. Was it more time constraints that didn't mean visiting Fantasy Island for their 2 Vekoma's? Still, a really good line-up of coasters.

Nice work. I have to say this is one of the best round-ups of the UK coaster scene I've ever heard. I agree with most of your opinions. Especially Kumali being the smoothest SLC in the country and if you really want to ride a 10 looper? Go to Flamingo land. Colossus is like throwing rocks in a blender. I know they have re-tracked it, but it really needed new trains too.

I did actually say during the Saw section that Smiler was lacking the kind of force that would make me forgive it, but thanks for your comment and engagement! Edit just so I’m clear on what I mean: Saw has ejector airtime and positive-heavy inversions. It’s rough but those moments make it worth it for me. Smiler’s force is predominantly laterals through the inversions, which actually makes the headbanging WORSE rather than being worth enduring it for. It has good moments but I found it difficult to ride and disappointing overall

Your ranking is very different to most. I agree with your opinions on Saw, Dragons Fury, Galactica and Nemesis Inferno for example. I prefer Nemesis over Inferno due to its pacing and layout but the forces are pretty similar. I do rank smiler lower than average but I find that only the ending is painful. I got to ride Hyperia yesterday and found more floater airtime than ejector but that might have been because I was stapled.

I knew hero would be worse than motocoaster, and Hyperia would be ur fav in the UK, but sik over stealth, i mean sik is good, but that's controversial. Very different list to anyone I've seen!
@MaloneysCoasters
@MaloneysCoasters 17 күн бұрын
To me, Sik has far more to it. I was quite impressed. If you're going to do a 10-inversion coaster, you've gotta make the inversions forceful and varied, and I thought Sik absolutely nailed that. Stealth was fine, its launch is great and there's solid ejector airtime, but it's ultimately a very short one-trick pony. As you can probably tell by my opinions on coasters like The Smiler, The Big One and Rita, I'm not the kind of thoosie to shy away from having a controversial opinion. I call it like I see it, and personally, I had more fun on Sik :)

Back row galactica fly to lie is a really strong element, but the rest of the ride is a family coaster. Colossus is way too high in this list imo, it was forceless and the worst restraints/seats in the country for me (v tall and quite muscular)
@MaloneysCoasters
@MaloneysCoasters 13 күн бұрын
I'm 6'1 and very skinny and found Colossus' restraints were not great, but not awful either. And I definitely disagree with it being forceless, I'd describe it as more hit-and-miss. Some of the inversions did nothing, but some like the corkscrews and the final barrel roll were actually really good. It's definitely inferior to Sik, but I'd describe it as mid rather than awful. Again, my expectations might play into this. I was warned it would be rough and painful, and it was not as bad as I was expecting, so I rank it as just OK.
@chrisogrady28
@chrisogrady28 13 күн бұрын
@@MaloneysCoasters I'm really reading the negative Gs as forceless I suppose, every drop and dip failed to do anything, and the underside just made me motive the restraints more. Every servings row of each car is significantly more camped for the legs too so going at the very back was a mistake for me and my partner (both 6ft3). I haven't ridden Sik yet but it looks a lot better, especially that first drop which is completely different

Not quite. The splashdown and the short layout are big flaws for me, so I rank Hyperia a very close second behind DC Rivals. If it had Rivals' length, or maybe even if it got rid of that splashdown, it would be my number one. The sustained ejector is stronger, but it feels incomplete.

You have extremely odd tastes in coasters, how can you rank some generic kid coaster over things like big one?

It’s always good to have a new perspective. With regards to The Big One, for most people the first (and kind of only) drop is its one redeeming factor. However, you MUST sit as close to the front as possible to avoid that incredibly uncomfortable clunky whip to the right, the further back you go, the more that uncomfortability turns into real pain. After that, it’s just poor in almost every respect. If you think of it as a 200ft drop tower with a sea view, followed by a nice long tour of the park, it’s OK, maybe even good. But as a coaster? No. To say this layout is from a different time is an understatement, outdated even upon opening the lack of any good profiling or forces feel like such a waste of an opportunity. Sure B&M were new and unproven at the time, but to think this technically opened after Nemesis. 😬 As the UK’s first and only hyper coaster for 30 long years, and a visually iconic monument and shining investment in a.. let’s say ‘economically challenged’ area, the amount of love and defence it receives is understandable and almost justified. I however, with the financial implications of a full replacement, have for years now dreamt of some kind of steel to steel RMC conversion. Turn the UK’s first hyper into the UK’s first RMC! The swing axle trains could probably even navigate that difficult drop with very little change. Or maybe even try to eke out another 25ft if they were feeling petty enough to retake the height crown. At the very least this thing needs a full re-profile.
