    Great to hear your comments on the rollercoasters at BPB. You mention Steeplechase having three tracks but I seriously cannot remember the last time all three tracks were in operation at the same time? With its footprint you could get something quite sizeable in its place.
    Grand National is great but it is rough and despite the retracking it’s still rough so Icon is definitely ahead of it still.

    Good ranking. I agree with it too. For years I didn't like the Grand National and the Big Dipper simply because of how rough they were but now they've really grown on me Grand National in particular. Infusion should be given back to Southport btw

    Icon's number 1 for me best coaster both at Pleasure Beach and in the UK. Not sure what I'd put in 2nd the Big One is fine with an awesome first drop but I also enjoy Nickelodeon Streak. As for Grand National I'd probably rank it quite close to the bottom. Whilst the right side as you're heading into the station is pretty good the left is one of the roughest most unpleasant experiences I've ever had on a coaster. Just hope it's smoother this season.

    I only ridden half of the rollercoasters at blackpool pleasure beach so I would rank them
    1. Icon
    2. Big One
    3. Revolution
    4. Avalanche
    5. Infusion
    Infusion sucks and a Mack Rides Big Dipper should replace it or a log flume.
    Avalanche is just really fun
    Revolution has two strong airtime filled drops and an intense loop
    Big One has an insane drop, great views and nice interactions
    Icon is filled with floater and ejector and it's so impressive how they managed to fit it in the park and it has an amazing layout.
    Next time I visit I will make sure to go and ride the other half.

    Scott CD here- agree with so much. Infusion is definitely over feared, grand national is one of the most fun rides in the country, streak is underrated but not as underrated as Dipper and Rev. But, I'd have to knock the big one down to mid table for me. So I guess I'll avoid that argument on opening day if I see you.

    Reason for my bottom 2 they are both my once a year rides get banged about to much on both! National has actually gone up my rankings it used to be below Blue Flyer purely because of how brutal it was!

    It's nice to hear somebody agreeing with me on The Big One. So many people I talk to always say that Icon is a better ride. While yes, from a technical standpoint it is a much better ride, Nothing beats the airtime from that first drop on The Big One. Also, as a fan of old Arrow coasters, I'm happy Revolution got closer to the top than most people put it. That is probably the most intense coaster I have ever been on and I love it.

    Great run down, Scott. Thinking about the Nash. My grand father was obsessed with how the trains swapped sides in the station. Of course he couldn’t Google the answer like I could once it was available. Do you think that still makes a difference to people who’ve never been on it before? Or don’t they even notice? To me it’s still a magical reason why the Nash rates higher than others! 😀

    Didn't go on all of the coasters during my only visit on a very busy day last August, my ranking would be:
    1. Big One - It is quite rough and it is such a shame the way the hills were designed which removes airtime, but that first drop is one of the best elements I've ever done on a coaster and you do get a good sensation of speed throughout. It's just such an iconic landmark for the UK too and the views going up the lift hill are incredible.
    2. Grand National - Fun with lots of airtime pops, was nowhere near as rough as I was expecting but I did find the restraints to be very uncomfortable, new restraints that don't dig into the sides of your legs would be great. I only had one ride on the front row though so can't speak for the experience towards the back.
    3. Icon - Disappointing, I did find it to be quite forceful, but I really dislike the layout, very forgettable, it just seemed to meander around, the section from the inversion to the immelmann is very good though. Felt quite nauseous afterwards too. Was on the very back row towards the end of the day, think I'd definitely enjoy it more on a cooler day on the front row.
    4. Avalanche - Great fun ride, my biggest surprise of the day, shame these bobsleds don't get built anymore as they are the perfect family coaster imo.
    5. Big Dipper - Found it to be rough as hell, beat the crap out of me.
    6. Steeplechase - Worst coaster I've ever been on, was in total agony throughout.

  • @sammorris6104
    @sammorris6104 Год назад

    Agree with most of this (though I still put Icon at #1), but I'd never wish to see any of the historic coasters removed, even those I don't like (I too put Steeplechase last) - I hope for a better ride on Big Dipper this year, I rank that lower than most people because it's been so slow for me lately I've experienced zero airtime on it - Nick Streak and Grand National both vastly superior to me.

    Bit harsh on Icon Scott! 😄. I agree with you on Steeplechase, it does nothing for me and I can't remember the last season I rode it - that said, I'd be absolutely outraged if PB ever announced they were going to remove it.

      Honestly if they removed any of their rollercoasters it would be shooting and outraging (except Infusion, bring back the flume or give us a mack rides big dipper) BPB just has the most unique lineup in the uk

      I’m looking forward to getting back on Icon but TBO & Nash are much better imo 😊
