Thorpe Park Rides: Tidal Wave
MaviGozLum

How WET can you Get!!!

Tidal Wave has to be one of the best water rides in the UK, Only ride this ride if you don’t mind getting SOAKED!!  Themed around Amity Cove, it is spectacular too watch, but don’t get too close otherwise you will get a soaking too. Whilst standing In the Q line you look at all the people leaving the ride and are dripping wet.  When boarding the boat it is completely soaked so dint even bother to look for a dry seat as there isn’t one!! Once going up the steep incline you realise how high up it is, then sharply turning a corner before the 40ft drop to the bottom where the Tidal wave awaits. The wall of water surrounds the boat, at one point you think you might not get too wet as the water doesn’t seem to come in the boat, but then the wave drops over the boat and your completely SOAKED!!  The best ride at Thorpe Park on a Hot Day!!
