Thinking about it my most recent visit to Thorpe Park was my 4th visit since this ride was first set up at Thorpe Park, and this was the first time it was running. I think it's fair to say it's had it's fair share of problems getting up and running.

The ride is an enterprise wheel. It spins around at a high speed, starting horizontally until it reaches a high enough speed so the pods are forced out by the centrifugal force, and the wheel can rise to a vertical position without the people inside the pods falling onto the roof of the pod.

You really can feel the changing G force exerted on you as you go around the wheel. It's a good thrill ride, nothing that memorable or spectacular, but if it's up and running when you visit  it's worth having a go on.
