The closer you get as you excitedly walk through the park, the taller it looks, rising up from behind tidal wave it needs no announcing, suddenly you find yourself standing below a (205ft) tall giant of steel - STEALTH.
The entrance sees you walking through a giant tyre with the name emblazoned across the top and down a twisty turning queue path that really makes the best of its space. The theme is consistent throughout, the new turf looking fresh and vibrant as you wind your way to the loading bay, then standing at the bottom of the steps to the loading bay that you have a tough decision to make, whether to be brave and ride at the front!.
Both paths lead up some steps to the open loading bay allowing views of the ride in all directions and allowing you to appreciate the true speed of the ride as it hurtles past you.
Standing at the gates, waiting to get on, the excitement builds, the nerves tingle and the adrenalin begins to pump, then the train arrives back in the station and finally its your turn.
The gates open and you board the train, pull down the overhead restraints and clip in the safety belt, you settle yourself in what you realise is a surprisingly comfortable seat, and take a deep breath.
The lights come on - all 5 shining bright red, the train moves forward a little and then back a little to allow the mechanics of it to line up and then...
All lights go green and all of a sudden its go go GO!.
Speeding down the track at (80mph) you find yourself climbing vertically high into the sky, then twisting round to be flat on the top, the height making itself known as the people below look like ants, but there's not long to look as you pass over the edge and speed vertically towards the ground twisting just about half way down to be facing the same direction you came from and over a bunny hop to finally feel the brakes slow you to a halt.
As the train pulls into the loading bay the adrenalin curses through your veins, you take another deep breath and cant help yourself from laughing, looking around you the other riders have that same expression of euphoria and relief - you made and you really did enjoy it!.
