The Swarm (Thorpe Park)

[Thekingin64]

That billboard is amazing in person! I did not expect that would look good but it does.

Will upload photos at some point.

I will, look forward to seeing your pictures Thekingin64 and seeing it in person on Saturday (16th), I hope the queue line has not been completely messed up.

The Swarm looks so rough going backwards on the back two rows.

I agree the Backwards rows do look rough from the POV.
Here is a video by Theme Park Worldwide, from the annual pass open day.

I so can't wait to get back on this awesome rollercoaster (Which was going to be this Saturday but sadly has had to be prosponed due to illness)

[Thekingin64]

It does look pretty rough. I'm assuming that's because of the camera shaking and not the ride being rough.

Have some photos that I took on the annual pass day:

Going up the lifthill


Continuing up the lifthill


Round the turn before the in-line.

Yea, I thought that. It really does suit the area a lot better than I thought it would.

I am looking forward to riding this coaster with Doomega this Saturday.

It does sound great. I can't seem to get the unique link thing to work though?
