No prizes for guessing which animal this ride is themed around; that's right a Mongoose.

Strip away the fibreglass and what's left is what feels like a good fairground style family thrill ride. It's a ride that feels familiar, I'm sure I've ridden one somewhere else, although I can't remember where, I believe the term usually used to describe like this is the Trokia. You ride in a gondola in one of 3 circles of gondolas that rotate round, while simultaneously spinning round a central turntable. The circles of gondolas are then tilted up, so they spin at an angle as they go round.

Riding feels like a cross between an Enterprise wheel and a ride I've seen in quite a few travelling fun fairs, I checked for the recognised term and I think it's called a Matterhorn, click here if you're wondering what one of those is.

It doesn't create as much g-force as an Enterprise, but creates a similar feeling as you go round, then at the highest point of the gondolas path it does a rocking motion, swinging a bit like as if you were riding a Matterhorn. It's pretty thrilling for a family thrill ride, and is a lot of fun. Definitely one worth trying on a trip to this park.
