POV of Jetstream roller coaster, at Ocean Beach in Rhyl, north Wales.
Jetstream was the first tubular steel roller coaster in the UK. It opened at Battersea fun fair in 1974, and was moved to Belle Vue in Manchester for 1975. In 1980 it was sold to Ocean Beach, and it operated there until the park closed in 2007. Jetstream was then chopped up for scrap.
This was the first roller coaster video I filmed, and uploaded to www.ukrides.info It was in the days of dial-up and was really small, so its nice to start all over again with higher resolution!
Music: 'Just Because' by Janes' Addiction. Just because that was the music on the original. :D
