    Great vlog, Scott; thanks for filming!
    In terms of Thorpe’s next coaster; I know it’s controversial, but I’d like to see a B&M hyper (emphasis on B&M) over any of the other options being thrown around, personally. I agree with Mark in thinking that I can’t imagine an RMC or a woodie at Thorpe, and in terms of other hyper manufacturers they could pick; I personally reckon they should go with B&M because after Derren Brown and its various issues, I think Thorpe could do with something that has high capacity, high reliability, is marketable and is also a crowd pleaser, and I think a B&M hyper is the ride that could most guarantee-ably tick all of those boxes. As much as a lot of enthusiasts would probably moan if a B&M hyper was built at Thorpe Park, as I get the impression that many (yourselves at PBE included) view B&M hypers as sub-par these days, I have to say that I would personally still be incredibly excited (the one B&M hyper I’ve done is easily my number 1 coaster!), and I think that it would still be a really great ride!
    In terms of Swarm’s audio; I’ll agree that I’m not personally too huge on the new plaza audio, preferring the old plaza audio myself, but I certainly see what they were going for with it (trying to tell the story in greater depth), and in fairness, I think they achieved that goal. It just isn’t as much to my personal taste as the old one.
    However, I’m afraid I’ll have to disagree with you on the station soundtrack; I think that new electric guitar track is epic, personally!
    If I could have the old plaza music back, but keep the new station soundtrack, then that would be the ideal Swarm music situation for me!

    Lockers outside of the queue should be standard. Would improve through put of rides, and as you say security would be massively improved. Was it just Colossus that had the queue jumping? Agree that virtual queuing would be good if implemented properly. It would need parks to invest more in the non-ride experiences such as shows and food options.

    • @yourexperienceguide
      @yourexperienceguide  3 года назад +1

      Colossus was the worst for the queue jumping but there was moments of it throughout the day. Non-ride experiences are vital at parks these days, Oktoberfest is a great idea which all the parks are now doing.

    love the channel, as an enthusiast I know I have to eventually visit the Uk to get credits...but the money and the quality of the coasters is turning me off. The Uk NEEDS to get a true standout elite coaster, they deserve it.

    • @yourexperienceguide
      @yourexperienceguide  2 года назад

      I disagree that we *need* an elite coaster, the industry in this country does absolutely fine. From an enthusiast point of view, yes we definitely want to see more things like Zadra and Hyperion built here but what our industry thrives on is their family target audiences being drawn into the parks not enthusiasts.

    You didn’t explain why you think stealth is better than taller top hat coasters? Also for me yeh stealth is the best 7seconds in the park , but the best ride has to be swarm, beat coaster in the uk for me… smooth like my number 1 helix….

    • @yourexperienceguide
      @yourexperienceguide  3 года назад +1

      Stealth is less rattily than Kingda Ka and Red Force which I think is the main reason for preferring it to those. I don't think I'll ever understand why The Swarm is ranked so highly in the UK but everyone has their favourites ;)

  • @jaysoncowan4333
    @jaysoncowan4333 3 года назад

    Great Video! Personally I think the park will get a hyper and it will be a B&M! Also in terms of the locker idea, I think they should defo be free instead of being £2! Also the virtual queue system can cause major issues because people just wanted to wait outside the entry and it’s just ends up being pointless so personally I think guests would rather wait in a queue

    • @yourexperienceguide
      @yourexperienceguide  3 года назад

      I think it’ll be a B&M too, hopefully with a good baggage system! I’d pay for a locker if it guaranteed the safety of my stuff.

  • @Stephen-li1ls
    @Stephen-li1ls 3 года назад

    Agree with Thorpe installing an airtime machine but I can see an Intamin mega coaster like Konda than a 200ft plus B&M just because of the locals but I agree they can install something around 175ft foot and topping 70mph and it will still be a massive crowd pleaser or I would like an upscale Vekoma Bermuda Blitz like Lech Coaster but extended. More track layout, more airtime, more inversions, bigger drop, more speed but yeah think realistically it'll be a B&M hyper or Intamin Mega coaster.

    • @yourexperienceguide
      @yourexperienceguide  3 года назад +1

      An Intamin hyper coaster would have more ejector airtime than a B&M coaster.

    • @Stephen-li1ls
      @Stephen-li1ls 3 года назад

      Isn't it true though for the original idea for Stealth is what they wanted break the UK height record but plans didn't go through due to the locals so I imagine the original plans were around 225ft-250ft?

    • @yourexperienceguide

      Entirely depends on where they’re up to with it, if they’ve got a slot booked with a manufacturer already that’ll mean something isn’t too far off. Time will tell.
