Thinking about it, I've been to Chessington
quite a few times, but it was only recently I rode this for the
first time. Mainly because there is quite a range of other good
rides at Chessington, and it's unusual to have enough time for this
ride to get a look in.
It's one of the basic
family rides where you sit in a carrousel like structure where the
pods spin round and bob up and down at speed.
This one does have a nice
twist, where the ships you sit on a turntable, which means the pods
turn around at various points of the ride. This is a feature I feels
been underused. The pods only make a few turns during the ride. I
feel the ride would be more exciting if the turns where more
numerous and frequent.
It's a nice little
innovation, that does add to the overall enjoyment of the ride. Will
I get round to going on it again? I'd probably have a go if the
queue was short, but it won't feature that highly on my to do list
next time I visit Chessington. |
