Big One

I am going to Blackpool soon and I am hopefully going to go to the Pleasure Beach. I have looked into the Pepsi Max. It aint that great. Is it really worth ?????????8 to get on?

i saw on the website that you could buy a wristband for unlimited entry. It was not very expensive IMO, but i calculated that if you'll ride 6 times the big one you'll got your money back. any ideas for it?

Im going to blackpool on the 23nd to the 25th. Btw pepsi max sucks. I wouldnt pay 6 quid to get on it. I highly recommend getting wristbands, otherwise you will run out of tickets in a hour or so. As said getting a wristband you can go on all the rides over and over, which i always do. The queues are also pretty much walk-ons at at the start and end of season. I dont think ive ever queued more than 20 mins for any ride at blackpool. Make sure you dont miss Valhalla. It is by far the best ride there, Its amazing. Also make sure you get on all the woodie. The grand national offers a unique ride, and riding the big Dipper in the back seat takes your breath away.

Overall go on most the big rides but mabe miss out on the Space invader and Pepsi Max. Pepsi Max has no airtime at all and the first drop from the back is very rough and actualy hurts more than a SLC

ok thanx

i'd say that if you havent been on the big one, then you should go on it because you might end up liking it, but it does look like it sucks. either way, i'd still ride it because its a coaster.

Yea, I'm with you coaster. A lot of rides i'll ride on them as long as their rides. Also, I didn't know that in that park you have to pay tikcets!? I've never been to a park with tickets. It must suck.

ditto here

well im going in 5 days now....thanks a lot ppl

"Pepsi Max Big One" has got to be the worst name EVER! It's almost as bad as "Looping Coaster" lol.

blackpool also has playstation the ride lol. cant they have names like "volcano" and then "sponsored by playstation" underneath like disney does? and gee, i wonder wich company sponsored the "PEPSI max big one"

The 'Playstation'is actualy now called Ice Blast and i also believe that the Pepsi Max and other rides which are sponsered there 'Irn Bru Revolution' was actualy not named by the park. They were named by the companys sponsering the rides. Besides they have Valhalla which is one of the best named rides in the UK espiecaly since the whole theme of Valhalla is well Valhalla and the Vikings

going tomorrow now

Have a goood time!

yeah true, valhalla does have a really cool name [:)]

The big one was a dissapointment wen i went on it for the first time.
After that first drop(which is great)theres nothin to the ride its rough noisy and is quite tame.
Alough i live in the uk its like the only coaster of its knid so ill let it off i suppose
