This ride has been cleverly designed to offer quite a lot, on what is a relatively small space. It's a little on the short side, which I think would be a little disappointing if you had to stand in a long queue for it, but this aside, its host to some intricate designing to fit quite a few interesting elements in a small area.

Part of the space saving is a result of the rides main talking point, the hill lift. It consists of a half loop, meaning at the top the train tilts back and you turn upside down. You can see this illustrated in the photo on the left. This is quite a novel experience, and when you do the first drop, from hanging upside down, to dropping and turning over, it's a very thrilling moment. Unfortunately the ride doesn't follow up on this moment. Although it's a well designed layout you never seem to reach enough speed, or feel enough force to feel like you're doing more than going through the motions.

I did wonder if I'd just been on a bad day. For the uninitiated a roller coaster is a bit like a car engine, it doesn't run at it's best unless it's been warmed up, and won't run as well on a colder day. The day we went was a weekday in September, great for avoiding queues (this was about the only ride that wasn't walk on, and most rides you could stay on if you wanted to do a couple of goes in a row) but it was a cold and damp day. Also the ride was closed for maintenance in the mourning, luckily it did open for a few hours in the afternoon, but this meant it might not have fully warmed up. However I have spoken to other people who've been on different days, and a lot of them have said they felt the same.

Another problem I had was the restraints. They're meant to be designed to leave you feeling open, but I found them uncomfortable, with them painfully digging into my ribs. By the end of the ride I was getting desperate to have them released.

Looking back at this review I've been pretty negative here. Perhaps that's not entirely correct as it's not that bad a ride. It does an O.K. job of providing a novel coaster in a small area with some thrilling parts. Really though I was expecting a lot more from this ride. I was expecting a ride that would be a candidate for near the top of the charts, instead it feels more like an above average filler ride. It's still one I'd try if there wasn't a big queue for it when passing, but it wouldn't be one of my main priorities on a visit to this park.
