Yeah, as far as I can remember it's always changed around a bit. It always seems to be on days when there's actually a queue for the ride they hold it for less long. I'm not sure how much it would really increase capacity to hold it for a shorter time though :S

I was there on Wednesday and they were holding though it seemed much shorter than the other dive machine I've been on, it was like stop, then drop. There was a large line the day I was there.

I dont think its an actual "crew" but more a group of people living in England who meet to go to parks, meaning (as far as I know) heres not really a leader or anything like that.

The Even though theres so many of us, a so cal crew never works for some reason :( Ghost

Nice first TR!
I still haven't gotten round to doing one yet and Ive been here for years! But then I don't own a camera.

Im not sure where the 'Brit Crew' thing first sprung up. I think it might have morphed out of the Hooters crew thing on the 07 midwest trip. When the hooters thing scattered the Brits who were friendly stayed in touch and are still knocking about together today. Although Ive been conspicuous by my absence (its been a crazy 2 years for me). Its not really an organized group as such (in more ways that one) though the same few regulars do turn up most of the time.

Seriously, TPR trips (even unofficial ones) are a great way to make friends!
