I think that’s all the more reason that park is not perfect. They have a restriction not a lot of parks have which is a flaw, meaning it’s not flawless. Also I can’t see why they can’t make a ride like Taron, I mean trees aren’t that small. Rita is 68.8 feet tall, Taron is 98 feet tall. That is more, but not that much more. They could just make a small whippy coaster like Taron or maybe even like maverick.

Also he mentioned a Hyper Hybrid or a Giga which unfortunately isn't possible due to the tree line rule. Although a single B&M giga as the only thing above the tree line would really be unique especially if it embraced that concept.

as a person who has ridden on Nemesis back in 2022. GOD DAMN. It is intense, but intense in a good way. It's not like other B&M inverts where youre like "once youve ridden one youve ridden all of them". Monster (Gröna Lund) would be more of the stereotypical invert, since it's more like Raptor in its smooth nature. But Nemesis is just something else. I was shocked at how intense it truly was.

The sad reality is Alton towers literally can't make a giga or a hyper due to them having height restrictions and not being able to build above the tree line and therefore they are practically forced to use inversions or intensity to make the rides interesting instead of excessive height. This is why Nemesis is practically built within a valley and oblivion's drop is 60 percent underground with that being said I think smiler is the stand out ride at that park or headliner as you may describe it with the 14 inversions and all and just the fact that Nemesis is put on the same level and even higher in terms of ride experience just shows how good it is.

6:55 as someone who visits Alton towers quite a lot, I agree with no headliner. The smiler does kind of fill that role however the record could probably reasonably easily be beaten.

A giga in Alton Towers would be awesome but I don’t think it will work because of laws in the area preventing the park from building above the tree line. They could build it by digging really deep holes but that sounds really out of their budget. I don’t think Alton Towers will ever get a RMC or a large B&M they might get a Intamin Blitz but that probably won’t happen for a long time. Alton Towers looks like they’ll probably get a family attraction for their next attraction.
@urthvox
Жыл бұрын
The reason Nemesis is the stand-out attraction at Towers is because of how unique it is. Where else are you getting an invert that uses a literal pit to its advantage, that's something RMC or Intamin would do. Alton Towers can't go above tree height and that is mainly why their coasters can be argued to be a bit nothing. But the thing with Nemesis is the fact that it's a B&M Invert that is less than 100ft, but packs a punch, is as intense as most RMCs and is one of the best coasters in the world.

It is amazing and the second airtime hill I genuinely prefer to SteVe's outerbank, with it ranked for me just under rides like Shambhala and Millennium Force.

Since the retrack, Colossus has become the best rollercoaster at Thorpe Park. 2nd being Saw. (There are no good POVs of Colossus, so I'd recommend watching a Sik POV instead. They're basically the same ride.) Stealth's top hat is better than Saw's ejector hill (the one after the immelman and that weird banked turn) and is the best airtime moment at Thorpe Park. Saw's ejector hill is the best part of the ride amd is better than the beyond-vertical drop. Also, Smiler > Nemesis. Blue Fire is the best rollercoaster at Europa-Park. Swarm's restraints ruin the ride. (My opinion might change if I can get more room, but the super-intense helix will probably pull them down anyway.)
