I pride myself on the best videos i can get and have to apologise, The hypersmooth on my GoPro was off, it's new Hero 11 I'd got just days before the event and didn't realise until it was to late so the footage is awful on ride, I tried to make it stable in post production but didn't so much . Also the Sony doesn't like white cloudy skies so picture is washed out as it's exposing got the background, Bit of a disaster also my mic was crap as it's so loud, should of used an external microphone but lesson learnt... was a rush and s bit hectic. It's the same for part two unfortunately. I do apologise.
Here he goes again!!!
Ya true followers don't give a shit stop saying sorry!!
We have these things happen i did morpeth fairday and didn’t realise i had a fingerprint on the front lens making my fromt pov looking cloudy
But it just gives us another reason to revisit
Seriously.... This is awesome. Just the smiles on your faces and being in awe of the size of the fair makes it so worth while. You spend an awful lot of money to do this and no matter what we just appreciate all the hard work that goes into it. So glad you got to The Hoppings, irrespective of if it's Europe's largest, it's Europe's best!
Please don't apologize Dave ❤ honestly we can you here you absolutely fine , none of your videos are crap , you do brilliant videos , I have learnt a lot from you in terms of my channel and filming, keep calm and get riding 😊
No worries buddy, great video from a subscriber here in NJ USA 😊
Proper vlog says how it is just watched both back to back
Weres libbby

My First Ever Time at the Hoppings! Europes Biggest Fun Fai Slothy Vlogs love louis shirley
Great vlog Dave and Aaron great to see Connor and Bailey what an amazing fair. All I can say is wow
It took me by surprise tbh, Really overwhelming 🤣
You WON the battle of the Oppings Vlog and haven't seen part two yet, Congrats boy. Would like to attend but its a trek from Devon, We get some mediocre grounds here worth checking out if in the area, Perhaps not worth a 7 hour hike like Toon Town lad
cheers John, appreciate the comment mush
I will also get to Hoppings one day . the boys were running Atmos Fear like a dream at KLM the cycles where all manual, and they were RIPPING IT
Highlight of my day is watching this video 😊
Great Part 1 of your Vlog from The Hoppings David ya legend. I’m looking forward to watching Part 2
Glad you enjoyed it
Excellent Vlog Dave & Aaron. Good to see the fair well supported. Terry Atha’s waltzer & Ice Jet 👌.
Thanks dude so much
Another great video as usual. Dave and Aaron thanks so much for sharing with us. Your fairs appear to be set up with roomy areas around. Ours are very packed.
Bailey is really showing results from his workouts.
Take care mates.
Wow what a wonderful fair Guys.Nice to see Conner,and Bailey. Terrific line up .Thanks👍👍👍👍👍
Our pleasure!
Thats no fair, thats a whole new experience! 🤪 fantastic vlog again fellas.
Thank you! Overwhelmed ... Smackpool next week, wish me luck
@@SlothyVlogs I'm there now! Just having a quick sugar fix before Icon again. 😀😀
The art work is off the scale😮
The ghost train with the ride on 3 floors and the old Top Spin are my favorites 👍😎
Dave and Aaron were like kids in a sweet shop. Bailey has bulked out as well! I bet he spent a lot of the time trying to pull the Geordie women. Good to see him back in a vlog!
My First Ever Time at the Hoppings! Europes Biggest Fun Fair Slothy Vlogs love louis shirley
Another great vlogs guys. Top guys Dave and Aaron
Awesome vlog! No issues with footage or sound for me. We are all our own worst critics! Great to see multiple scare-actors on Jamie Whiting's Ghost Train. Roll on part 2 😀
Thanks so much!
@@SlothyVlogs No problem mate
Good to see you & Aaron & Bailey travel up to Newcastle for the Hoppings fair and a what a great fair it looked too so many top rides there and Connor there as well , great vlog Dave look forward to part 2 - nice 1 mush 👍
Great part 1 vlog guys " 2 TOKENS " 🔥 👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Another great vlog Dave and Aaron. Thinking back to the doc you done on Aaron i can remember going to smarts at littlehampton back in 1969 i think what is now Harbour park. The waltzer you were talking about with the breaks is still there but now seen better days. The machine was rapid when it was new from what i recall. They also had a figure 8 speedway there back in the day. Was a great little fair back then. Keep up the great work boys, always look forward to seeing the vlogs.
I live near Littlehampton and i'm sure will bump into you one day and say hello.
Wow, just wow! nice to see Connor there too,
Fabbri Booster 8,
Technical Park Loop Fighter,
Maxwell Waltzer,
Tivoli Extreme/Remix,
Lakin Waltzer, love the old skool handbrakes on Turner's Rolling Thunder!
Safeco Jump n' Smile,
love the Ghost Train,
another Maxwell Waltzer,
KMG Inversion 12,
Bertazzon Matterhorn,
Zierer Star Shape,
Wessledine Ghost Train (I think?),
Nice to sit down with my favourite bevvy at the end, nice vlog boys, enjoyed that :)
Thank you so much
Absolutely brilliant vlog Dave and Aaron loved it
Great vlog mate Void is great ride I enjoyed it and love it also hell blazer ❤
Great musch! Thanks again! Blessings and happy thoughts! 🎢🎡🎠😇🙏👍
Keith Turners Rolling Thunder was always the best Waltzer and has a long history at the Hoppings... Started life as a Speedway in 1939, Toogoods bought in in 1949 and converted it into a Waltzer in the 50's, then in 1979 Toogoods sold it to Keith Turner as The Rock and Roll Waltzer, then it was renamed the Imperial Waltzer, then finally Rolling Thunder.
Have to agree, it was my favourite of the 5
@@SlothyVlogs can never have too many waltzers! 😃
Awesome watch
Looks good Danter’s air looks crazy. Defo a must😊
Dave what can I say 😂😂😂love watching you and Aaron keep up with the great work ❤
Thanks so much
Rode Atmosfear and Ghost Train XL at Knutsford Fair a few weeks ago, awesome rides. Some great views from the top of the Ghost Train. Hope to get to Hoppings one day!
Amazing funfair👍👍👍
It really is!
Quality vlog mate. Great you took the time to make the trip. Properly entertaining even with the chaos.... Hull is still better though 😉😆
I'm with you, Team Hull but this was incredibly good 👍
U r damm right nothing beats Friday Saturday at Hull for atmosphere. Worked all big three hull wins easy!
Yes dave amazing vlog i was on razzamattaz just before you.. I was the baldy one with shades on
Hi Connor and Bailey! Nice to see your handsome faces. 😊
Loved it, I can tell you got the Hoppings bug!! (it's ok I won't tell Hull 😜👍😂😂)
Great to see Aaron the legend and Bailey and Connor. Footage fantastic as always... We all have camera issues from time to time mate, I know it's heartbreaking when you play it back, but it came out so well mate. Nothing to apologise for. 👌👌🎥🎠🎡
Cheers mush, Who's patch does Newcastle fall on? Up for grabs? 🫣🤣
@@SlothyVlogs James page 😁👍🎡🎠.. #Car7 😁👍
Awesome video it reminds me of the fair in tenessee that i went to last year
Good video, thank you for sharing, 😅
4:44 ooo is this an Elkins diss? Honestly I'm down for the Slothy Vlogs diss tracks.
It's not no lol it was to the people slagging me off on his video, saying how crap i am ect, He's still learning the ropes and wouldn't take the piss.
@@SlothyVlogs fair enough! Surely we are at the reconciliation time of year by now? Great vlog as per btw!
Brilliant vlog mate 2 tokens
Thank you so much 😊
This fair looks amazing. Bailey is jacked 💪
He's a big lad!!
The razzmatazz was at our Thornton Cleveleys fair over a week ago. Looks old skool😊
I had a feeling from last week's vlog you might be going here 😂 but then you said someday 😂 then I thought you might be going to the goose fair , so happy you got to go here , especially as Newcastle are your favourite team!
Lovely to see bailey again
Love the background on the booster , top gun ❤ amazing
I did drop a few hints 😆😆😆
@@SlothyVlogs yeah you did 😂 glad you had a good time
Arron got on a booster yyyyyyaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy
Been to all the BIG 3 and The Hoppings is just mental. Is it the biggest? In my opinion it's massive compared to the others. One thing is for sure.... it's definitely the best bar none!
Cant wait for part 2
Really good vlog.£5 is not bad for a booster. One down east anglia was £2.50 this year which shocked me
£5 is pretty good value compared to down south but the cycles wasn't overly long
@@SlothyVlogs not to sure what cycle was like down here definitely seems better value up there we paid 5 pound for a waltzer down here in November for a 2 min cycle
Disappointed man you didn't do the 5 waltzer challenge tut tut 🤔 now you know why Ice Jet is such a unit. Because it comes from the land of units even us lasses 😂😂 can't wait for part 2 GO ON MY SON 💪💪💪💪
Oh we did the 5 Waltzers ... check back next vlog
@SlothyVlogs the tradition is you have to start at the top & do them all at once 1 after the other no breaks 🤔 I'll let you off though because it was your 1st time 😉 😀 😜 I'm looking forward to the 2nd vlog I enjoyed this one 👍
I'm over here screaming😮😮Big Boy hold the bags Bailey AAAANNNNDDD a special appearance by Connor the chaperone. Dave this gets a 👍👍
The life-size hooka duck is cute😁😁
Love your videos best channel on RUclips
Wow 🤩
Dave can I just say your videos have been so much better since Simon hasn’t been in them. Always thought the guy was an absolute clown.
You seem happier these days keep up the good work. P.s seen simons started his own channel he ain’t got nothing on you!
Quality
Thank you 😊
Absolutely agree. That si was a right tool. Thinks he's something he's not.
Great vlog as always Let's hope danters air returns hydepark winterwonderland this year
David Rowlands jnr kmg Inversion(no limits) has apprently been sold to france so rock rage is the only one in the UK now and has bought a new confold ride called satanica due in November
Awesome vlog what was your best ride
Great video
I saw you with aaron, connor and bailey with steamed milk my turners waltzer! Was gonna come over but im too awkward😂
@@WaltzerCrazy sure regretted not when i got home haha
Definitely should of said hello 👋
OMG the waltzers 🤯🤯🤮
Both Hoppings and Hull Fair claim to be "Europe's largest travelling funfair", but which is larger?
Wow a long journey!! How long would it take you to Manchester great Vlog and nice to Connor and Bailey again!!
Manchester is 4 hours
Come and see some of our fairs next time your fancy a break away. I would love to meet you guys!!
Hi dave will be coming to Northampton Town Festival this yaer as I would love to meet u
I don't think so unfortunately, Pretty busy year ahead with trips 😢
Excellent vlog as usual. I wondered if Connor was still about and I see he is...just!! Whats happened to Cooper?
Thank you, He's stepping away from vlogs 😊
@@SlothyVlogs thank you for your reply .
I love this fun fair I go every year and dave and arron should do the Walter challenge where u ride every Walter there one after the other that would be a really gd but funny video tho the next time they come here
Didn't know about it until now 😢
I’ve just visited Eastbourne. They have a John Davis wrist band fair. I think 12.99 unlimited rides. 24th June till 9th July. I missed it. Had to come back. Looked like some really good machines.
Where is the best place to see fairs listed? I always find it hard to find them? Especially this had I not drove past. 😭
It's really difficult to find listings, Facebook is probably the best places, I'm in a lot of groups that share posters from around the UK like "Current Funfair events" ect ect so might be worth a try
Fantastic Dave 👍👍really enjoyed it
Glad you enjoyed it
Did you not go on the rocket? Great vlog always is with you lot keep them coming.
Hi dave next time u go to hopping buy ur train tickets in advance its alot cheaper
14:48 ... now we know, where Libby get that phone-addiction from! haha , mush !
Absolutely! All as bad as each other
@@SlothyVlogs Hahaha .. but still they're good kids !
That Topspin reminded me of the one that James/Billy Danter owned
It's an amazing machine and quite intense
LOOK WHO IT ISSSSSSS
Can you tell I've just started watching... nearly spat my drink when seen him awww yayyyy haha
Haha saw that coming YOU DONT CHEERS COFFEE hilarious
So glad you are all still friends .. that's all that matters .. (was wicked to see him) brilliant vlog guys as normal
Haha I know his face is hilarious has cracked me up every single time...
Share how much it cost you on every video total for all rides that you ride
Duo sos
Hope you enjoyed! - the booster belongs to Steffan Cubbins
I did!
I'm from Sunderland and I used to go to this loads
Not wearing a Sunderland shirt? 😂😂😂
@SlothyVlogs if I did I would be tossed higher that that bloody booster
Is it really necessary for there to be that much smoke on a waltzer
i went york which is on the way to newcastle
Beautiful city, I'd love to visit
That vod extreme funfair ride was at download festival 2023
Isn't the oktoberfest in Munich and the canstatter wasen in Stuttgart the biggest?
It probably is, they all claim the biggest and best lol
What camera are you using for these vlogs?
Sony ZV-1 & GoPro hero 11
@@SlothyVlogs awesome footage, well done, keep them coming. 👏👏👏
Even though air is the biggest and most grand I don't honestly rate it that much. I prefer void and exciter
I had a wonderful ride on AIR but yeah Void was on another level
Will you ever do theme park vlog
Yeah, at Blackpool next week
The ride prices I thought were relatively expensive but that’s because it’s up north. I guess these prices are normal to southerners 😂
Yeah man, I didn't see the prices an issue at all haha
Looks big but not as
good as winter wonderland in terms of ride selection. More of a rave though!
Is that the same Rocket that was in the US at Myrtle Beach?
Yep
@@ridemadness Thanks!
Such a shame hiscoes Star Fighter is in Alton towers as was meant to go here along with Kirkcaldy
Oh deally
Just 2 straight men in Newcastle with more hair on there beards than there heads.😂
Did I see that miserable conner 😮
Enjoy the summer guys 😊
Connor was here, think he cracked a smile... Once!
Please go to don sapo frog to part 2 please

wheres libby dave ? 🙂
Could you imagine how much he’d have spent if Libby had gone 😂 he’d have had to re mortgage his house hehe
