@DA87i 5 лет назад

I actually disagree when it comes to the speed on this ride. I think it’s very deliberately not supposed to be lightning quick and ON THIS OCCASION all the better for it. I absolutely loved the hangtime sensation through the one/two inversions and the slower moments for me actually gave me time to appreciate the changes in pace through certain dips and turns, whereas if it was going quicker I think those would have been more muted and uneventful. Like the sudden changes in pace were really noticeable, even when you were only going down a little 10ft dip. It’s like a thrilling family coaster and it’s really cleverly designed.

@GD_Coaster 5 лет назад

I don't understand why people are disappointed by the launches… Why do people expect them to accelerate quickly? Mack Rides launches are family-friendly (for example my parents could not enjoy Novgorod, the launch was too intense for them, but they loved Icon so much. So Icon is not only just OK, it's awesome for those who do not look for outstanding thrills. By the way, I really loved your footage of Icon in your cinematic video, especially in combination with the cool soundtrack. I can watch it again and again :D ;) Awesome!

@flipflubduck 5 лет назад

GD Kulgan because we live in a society where 9/10 enthusiasts only look for intensity and ejector airtime on coasters

@shroomyesc 5 лет назад

Nathaniel Johnson "we live in a society" it's not that deep, when you go on a *thrill* coaster you expect to get thrilled, intensity is obviously intense and thrilling. Plus you're ignoring the point where he concludes that it's fun and enjoyable.

@sonimatic 5 лет назад

I mean, when Icon is hyped up as one of the best coasters in the UK, obviously a lot of American enthusiasts will be disappointed. Lots of Americans are used to rides by intamin, such as Maverick and Storm Runner, which have very sudden launches, breakneck pacing, and whippy transitions. The UK doesn't have any crazy intamin rides, so Icon really stands out in that environment.

@GD_Coaster 5 лет назад

Fidel Camuze Yes. But with regard to pure quality, Icon would also stand out compared to many typical Cedar Fair or Six Flags coasters - but of course not as a thrill cooaster, but as a soft, smooth and fun family coaster

@sonimatic 5 лет назад

Well people who hear about this ride from overseas don't expect a high rated coaster to feel like a family coaster. If it feels like a family coaster to someone who prefers more intense rides then why should they rate it high? It just doesn't feel like a valid defense. There's a reason Cheetah Hunt, usually considered a moderate family coaster like Icon, isn't typically highly rated in Florida. It just isn't an extreme coaster. That's why American enthusiasts don't feel the same way about Icon as UK enthusiasts. We just have more intense coasters and a bigger selection.

@tykenstein 5 лет назад

I have to say, Mack multi-launches are probably the most universally palatable modern launched coaster design. I think they have found a perfect balance between forces and intensity to make a ride that literally appeals to everyone without being a watered down family coaster.

@visionist7 5 лет назад

When I think "family coaster" I literally think mine ride, so this is certainly a welcome "family" ride upgrade! Wickerman too is called a family ride but frankly I don't see it as anything less than a full fat thrill ride

@trevormungeam 5 лет назад

Agreed completely. That’s why Helix is my number one. It’s forceful enough to very thrilling, but not so much so to sacrifice rerideability

@tykenstein 5 лет назад

Honestly I cannot wait to make it to Liseberg and ride Helix. I know for a fact that ride will win my heart, it looks like the PERFECT roller coaster to me.

@me-myself-i787 Год назад

Yeah. It's kind of like the B&M Hyper / Giga. Fury 325 is probably the world's best rollercoaster in that regard, but Helix is also great.

@alexwright7535 3 года назад

I really liked the launch, I think the gradual nature of it suits the ride better as it compliments the smoothness throughout. I find the pacing to be just right too as you get some nice hang time on the inversions. The banking is epic as well!

Just back in Australia from a UK holiday. Went to Pleasure Beach and loved eveything there. Rode ICON twice and seriously loved everything about it. I particularly liked when waiting in queue to ride (for the very first time) we watched trains getting launched and then disappearing over the first hill into the great unknown of the park. You then don't see the train back again until it hits its second launch. That whole "where did it go, what's over the hill" mystery built the anticipation and nerves beautifully. FYI: They have now modified the rear two seats on their ICON trains to free-spinning seats and have called them ENSŌ. I didn't experience this (as I can't handle spinning) but the verdict was very good from those who rode this way. It puts a whole new spin (pardon the pun) on the ride experience. After Pleasure Beach we went to Alton Towers - what a let down (and an expensive experience). Pleasure Beach has much better coasters (I love the old, original wooden, bumpy coasters). Rita (at Alton Towers) has a great first launch (it really forces you back in your seat), but after that, that's about it - just a speed coaster really. ICON is definitely the best coaster we rode in the UK.

@swickzy9250 4 года назад

Copperhead Strike is open. The inline twist on Icon reminds me of a JoJo Roll.

@crashcoaster3852 5 лет назад

I personally really enjoy this ride, but I definitely agree that the launches aren't great, and it could be more intense. I've never really noticed the lapbars tighten, and I always make sure I'm not stapled so I get plenty of airtime on that top hat (my personal favourite element of the ride).

@visionist7 5 лет назад

How do you avoid getting stapled? They stapled me practically every time

@gstakk3136 Год назад

@@visionist7push your body upwards a bit with your back on the seat, they’ll try to staple you but they always need quick dispatches so they’ll just move on i rode it 8 times yesterday though and each time if i avoided getting stapled it came down right after the first launch so i just wouldn’t bother

@gypsymuffinABZ 5 лет назад

I rode it 4 times last year & I loved it. It is firmly in my top ten.

@smatrai 5 лет назад

I went to the U.K and Sweden right before you guys did and before it opened so I didn't get to ride but took construction photos. I really like the Big One , yes it's layout makes completely no sense at all but I liked the overall speed and the wind getting thrown in my face on that plus the ending of the big one was interesting. Just looking at Icon it does look a bit slow but fun so I will take your guys word for it saying it is the best in the park. But definitely not the best in the U.K. That belongs to Nemesis or Smiler, technically Cu Cullain isn't the UK not getting into geography now. But awesome stuff Taylor as always. I just want to thank you because you made me love rollercoasters now more than I ever did and it woulde awesome to meet you one day

@gamesmaster1060 5 лет назад

I dont think smiler is that good personally, I like it I just dont think its great, I find it uncomfortable around 60 70 percent of the time and all the inversions in such a quick time just kinda make me feel like I am randomly being thrown about

@mickyj0101 5 лет назад

I'm quite new to coasters and this is my first ride with an inversion and I have to say I loved it although I haven't been on infusion, revolution, avalanche, big one or Nickelodeon streak so I can't say it's the best at the park although the best I've been on.

@jaderonimacaroni 5 лет назад

I get to ride Icon all the time since I go to Pleasure Beach often, and I have to say, when you don't get stapled, you get some really nice air on that ejector hill. Personally my Number 1 UK coaster.

@chrisogrady28 5 месяцев назад

Top hat gives crazy airtime, front is sharp ejector, back is sustained floater, combined with the super free seats you do feel like you're gonna fly out and hit big one haha. Then that sharp dip under the bridge before the second launch is sharp ejector in the back

@doxy1192 5 лет назад

10 more rides on this thing last week, easily one of my favourite coasters in the UK. I agree the first launch is not very forceful, however backseat I felt was somewhat forceful. Some moments in the second half are actually sort of forceful, the turn around before the turn over the entrance had some positive g forces and the ejector hill in the second half gives some great airtime. I enjoyed the Front however the back is a lot more forceful compared to the front.

@gadgefan48 5 лет назад

Really good review as always! Makes you wonder about the 2nd launch, is that part of the reason Copperhead Strike's 2nd launch is going to be on a bunny hill to make that part of the ride more thrilling compared to Icon's 2nd launch. Either way its definitely a coaster credit I wanna get whenever I go to Europe someday.

@visionist7 5 лет назад

A BPB ride op yesterday told me the ride sometimes rolls back on the half immelman, so a bunny hop would be better and enable parallel launches

@Lisa-ec4gx 5 лет назад

@guitarplayerforu 5 лет назад

The launches seem to get faster as the day goes on. In terms of launches, Icon really still gives me that breathtaking effect on both launches, it feels as quick as Rita at Alton Towers. If you want a really forceful launch, hydraulic launch coasters are the best.

@TheAndroidvsapple 5 лет назад

I have ridden it 7 times. In the back, you feel the launch a bit more, especially the 2nd. In front you hang a bit more in the giant air time hill and immelman.

@visionist7 5 лет назад

It's all about the back. Even from the first to the second row it's more forceful, let alone the last row. Awesome fun in the last row. I got 9 rides in, front, back, day, night

I just rode icon and it was so good, the launches were better than I thought it would be it pinned me to my seat quite forcefully the airtime was fl-jector(I like it better than ejector) and so much airtime and so comfortable so fun😆 Also I don’t get why people complain about stapling it got pushed down quite forcefully but it was still comfy and I still got airtime you don’t need to levitate to count it as airtime because you will feel like you’re getting ejected anyway the restraint doesn’t matter

Thing is with Icon is that I think it's marketed as an extreme thrill coaster where I think it's more of a family thrill coaster. If Cheetah Hunt is classed as a family thrill coaster then this definitely is. I think it's the perfect ride for Blackpool and it's what it needed. I would of preferred an intamin blitz coaster personally which foccussed around speed but beggers can't be choosers.

@KoasterKing205 5 лет назад

I wouldn't count Copperhead Strike as it's not yet built & opened yet. Also Rcdb says that Nemesis at Alton Towers is 104ft in drop height which is obviously bull, so I'm going to say that ICON features 2 inversions & say that the Immelmann is. But I would say that ICON is an epic ride, I agree that it could be faster but it isn't a Hydrualic Launched Coaster with a catch car mechanism so you wouldn't feel the sudden launch, but the launch on ICON is smoother which I think is pretty good. I would also say the ride is partially themed in a way but not themed like THE SWARM at Thorpe Park. Overall I wouldn't say ICON is the best ride in the UK as there's others that I like, but it sure is a great addition to both BPB & the UK as a whole.

@garethfirth8644 5 лет назад

I think it is the best roller coaster ride there it is so fast and you get a lot of airtime at the back and at the front you can see where you go and that is good as you are up a bit longer I was on it for 2 hours Strait on the icon I think the first drop could of been a lot higher but that just me tho it is not a long one I think about 1 minute 20 seconds but the is still fast for that if you have any thing to add you can thanks

my opinion on icon describe in one word: awesome ride positives: airtime smooth awesome interactions great area and styling negatives: can be a bit sluggish on really windy days the exit steps could look a bit better smoothness: really smooth however can tend to rumble around the steeplechase area can be rattly on the back however it is more of a vibration than a rattle if i could change anything on it: make the exit stairs look a bit more stylised make the wind a little bit of a consideration (make the launches faster on windy days) my rank of it: 9 out of 10

"Not really an airtime focussed coaster" I just rode this 3 times, front, middle, and back, and massively disagree, there's crazy ejector on the first top hat, and smaller pops of ejector a good 5 or 6 times later on. Combined with the leg damgly space and lap bars my boyfriend described it all as 'very airy' on the brake run, he isn't actually into airtime so didn't care for it but it that and whippy transitions is definitley the focus of Icon. We had a night ride too and that made allnthe small dips and whips feel much more forceful as you can't predict them and the layout is too complex to memorise. Imo the first launch is very punchy and if it was any harder the top hat would tear your head off, but the second launch could do with more speed as the immelman is forceless. The slow pace in the back section does give good hangtime though. I have this joint best in the UK with smiler, but they are veryyyyy different rides
