hey peeps. I just thoguht i would send some pics of one of my home parks. Not many people will know of this park i dont think, it is quite small but has some decent enough rides. The S&S Space shot is wicked.
BTW This is taken from TTF, as i have just posted it there for someone.[:D] Thought i would share it with you guy too though, show you hwo tiny this park is. Its quite near fantasy island so it is quite often empty, because when people coem to the area they think hmm Fantasy island or Pleasure island, definately Fantasy island. I cant blame people for thinking that either. FI has some amazing rides.
Okay here are my pics of Pleasure island cleethorpes. Firstly just a photoshop image i did in a couple of minutes cos i was bored.

When you first walk in to Pleasure Island, the themeing actually appears to be quite good, but once you get further into the park that thoguht laves your mind. Anyway heres a few pics of the entrance area, and tinkaboo town or whatever its called:
The street after the entrance
the very old swing ride, which has been done up to fit with the park. It dates back a very long time

Okay well everytime i go to pleasure island the first ride i always want to go on is Hyper blaster because it is my favouite ride there. It is a 90 foot S&S space shot which really does pack a punch. It still launches at 50mph like most other space shots, but because it isnt very high, you reach the top with still alot of speed left, and you really really do come out of your seat, especially when you are small like me. Anyway here are the Hyper Blaster Pics:

Then i head over to Pendulus, a really fun Huss Frissbee. When its spinning at its fastest it is a really really good ride, although every time i have been at least one person has been sick and they have to put water on the ride and send it round empty and it clears itself up, and dries too!

The i go to alakazam but i forgot to get any pics of that!!! Its a huss Fly away basically. Anyway after Alakazam i ride Boomerang, the Vekoma Boomerang coaster. Its not very original at all obviously, as these coasters are, and it is quite unsmooth, but it is still fun, and provides a thrill.

Next to the boomerang is one of the scariest topspins i have ever ridden, this is the terror Rack. It isnt just what th ride does that makes it scary, its how big the restraints are! They dont even touch me but they still let me on, and whn it hangs you upside down i slip right down. Its alot of fun, but sometimes it does it a bit suddenly and it really does feel like your gonna fall, well it does me cos im so small compared to the restraints. They are them restraints that you share with like 5 people if you know what i mean. Anyway you can see it in the picture:

There is also the old Alton Towers centifuge called Gravitron, but i didnt get any pictures of that. There is also a really fun huss Condor, called Condor, how original?

Then there is the parachute drop, but ive never seen that working. Its not an intense ride, it just reminds me of the old Coney Island parachute which always brings a smile to my face. Although this one is alot more modern, but i suppose it still feels as unsafe

They also have a really good little coaster for kids, Runaway Mine train

Theres also a really crazy spinning ride called century 2000, but i do not know who this is manufacturered by. I know who all the other rides are manufactured by but this one confuses me. Basically you spin around a giant pole in little cars on arms, and the arms then hoot up and down really fast and suddenly. It will stop at one height while spinning for a while, and then you suddenly shoot up. And then shoot down. Its not intense just fun.
