i think that the enterprise-type rides are fun, i love the way that u have nothing holding you in your seat other than gravity! :)
this was the first ride that i went on that went upside down, and now i go on loads of different things!
GO ENTERPRISE :P =)
(i have added 2 pictures of the ride i was on at Alton Towers)

hi, can i just ask... it's quite a wierd question, but what happens on the Tower Of Terror? I have never been on it before. But i have heard it is quite gd!:)


another one of my favourites would have to be the Mexican Wave type things, i don't know what the real name of them are, might be Miami...

For the person who asked, Amazing Confusion is a Mondial Ultra Max. I believe it's the only one in the world.

My personal favorite is Delirium at Kings Island (Huss Giant Frisbee) followed closey by Long Island Adventureland's Top Scan which is no more.

Personally, I'm a big fan of the S&S Screamin' Swing, but my only experience with one is Rush at Thorpe Park. However, I was thoroughly impressed. :)

Double Shot at IB, swinging ships and falling stars (and whoever said the swinging ship over water, amen brother!)

Also, I'm not sure who considers log flumes as flat rides, or simply water rides, but regardless I am a flume addict.

I thought Slammer @ Thorpe Park was awesome. One of very few rides where I was actually nervous before the ride started. It wasnt bad at all actually. A bit uncomfortable for your back, but the sensation you get going over the top is amazing.

I had high hopes for Rush, but I thought it was a very gentle ride. It didnt have the powerful swings that you get on a KMG Afterburner, even though the Screamin Swings goes higher.
