Personally I found it pretty rubbish, very gutted after waiting 2 hours.

Whatever floats your boat I guess.

really, it has so many great features. A vertical drop, loop, barrell rolls. It seems like a great ride expierence, however waiting for two hours for it seems tedious.

It's just my personal opinion, I prefer rides such as Nemesis, Oblivion, Air and Rita though.

I prefer Air and Rita. That's probably because their the only two rollercoasters I have ever been on. I was too afraid before I went to Alton Towers earlier this year. I'm certain I would have the guts to go on that ride now.

I went to Oakwood with some friends camping near 3miles from it, on Bank holiday Monday... Tbh I had more fun than Thrope park lol, There wasnt that many people so the queue was very fast... Only had to wait like 10mins to get on Speed... Speed is well good, better than Thrope's park collosus and Nemisis Inferno... although it did make me dizzy...

Overall, I thought Oakwood was going to be rubbish, but was v good...
Unlike first time at Thrope park, couples of years ago, I thought it was going to be good, but it wasnt... had to wait alot and I think I was too short for one ride :D

Something just doesn't look right about it..
It looks a bit fairground-like..

Thats my opinion though.

Looks fairly good!

I think it would be a little better if it braked for 1-2 seconds before it dropped, It would give you a little moment to make you realise whats about to happen..

(Like oblivion)

Its amazing, Megaphobia is just classic and Speed is brillient, same with bounce and hydro...
Im only bout a 40 minute drive away or so from wher i am, so its alright for me. I go bout once a year.
