Health Warning:
Chav Central.

DM has the potential to be a great park, but the management are chavs, all the staff are chavs.. Ermmm, it kind of spoils it.

As for best ride, prolly Appocolypse.

Shockwave is very unsafe though & it hurts.

When me and my friend were on it before, we could lift the harness up quite a bit more than normal, and I was slipping out on most of it. We complained and they said they have had numerous complaints about that same thing.

Lmao, im sorry but if it was unsafe then it wouldn't have been opened.

I've been on countless coasters where my restraint opens a notch or two, it's normal..

I've been 4/5 times before with the school, and it's pretty good. I don't really have a favourite ride though as they're all pretty good.

We went on a kiddies ride before and asked the guy controlling it to make it go faster for it, they didn't though. :(

I have been on loads of roller coasters all round the world. None of them have done that to me apart from shockwave.

Its unsafe, so don't say stuff like that.

I will, because it's perfectly safe.

Name 5 more stand-up rollercoasters you've been on in the world.. Shockwave the only one? - You'll find that ALL standup coasters move up and down notches, to ensure a comfy ride and due to the pressure placed on the sholder restraint whilst upside down.

They are 100% safe, fact.

I went with my school last year, and it was packed. It took us at least an hour to actually get on apocolypse and after it was done we spent the rest of the day trying to get on other rides. In the end the ques was so long we gave up :p

So yea, my favourite rides apocolypse cause tis the only one i went on lol.

I love apocalypse. (floorless ftw!)

My favorite ride used to be shockwave, but idk... I kinda grew off it, it doesn't seem that good anymore. (Plus, the shoulder harnesses are MEGA uncomfortable on me)


and Adam, with its harnesses I do see what he's saying, they do lift up a LOT with me too, and I could slip my arms through it if I put enough effort into it. I'm not calling them unsafe, but if you're not used to it then it can make you think that.

But then again, I've been able to slip my sholders out of Slammer at Thorpe Park - Yet thats totally safe, infact it's suppost to be like that..

Come on, nobody is stupid enough to do such a thing!

Lol, ignorant much?

How are they 100% safe? I went on it, its not. We complained, they said a few other people had the same problem. I have been on 2 other stand up rides not including shockwave, and none of them have done that.
