Adventure
Island does seem to specialise a bit in thrill rides aimed at young kids.
You've got the Archelon, Pharoahs's Fury, Sk8Borda, the Fireball, the Cow
Jumped Over The Moon, and this. All they're missing is a mini pirate ship.
This is a 4 sided tower ride, which I was expecting to function along the same
lines of a frog hopper, that sees you doing a lot of small jumps. Instead it
functions more like a mini version of a drop n bounce tower. Your lifted to
the top of the tower, before descending, and then going back up again.
Unfortunately as a small tower, with restraints designed to allow small kids
on it means it's a very tame ride. In fact I reckon if I closed my eyes I'd
struggle to tell if it was going up or down.
As a thrill rides for young kids, it's just about o.k., but even as a thrill
rides for slightly older family groups it doesn't offer much. Not one to
prioritise on a visit to the park. |
