The thing about Colossus is, is that the issue for me isn't the headbanging, but moreover the discomfort. The trains have a slanted floor which feels like you're wearing high heels backwards, & the shoulder restraints have a flat bottom which will staple you into you seat. Also, I think the back rows of the cars have a flat floor, so next time i'll probably sit in the back. Last time I went on it I got insane cramp in my legs in the front row. Not only should they retrack the whole thing, but they need new trains, like the old ones in 2002, with a flat floor. Avalancha at Xetulul in Gautemala still uses the old trains, & it's said to be a decent ride by enthusiasts

I had my first ride on Colossus in April and while it wasn't the smoothest, it was fine. I had my second ride on Monday, and it was really rattly and rough. Is there a difference between the trains, or temperature, or time of day? Ride one was early morning, cool day. Ride 2 was mid afternoon, warm day...

I love Colossus; I've had my ups and downs with it as it got really, really rough in the late 2000s/early 2010s, but when I rode it in the 2016 season I immediately noticed it hadn't been that smooth for years. I got another ride in 2018 and again, not the smoothest thing in the world but that added to the intensity and I don't get a headache on it anymore.
@Coolharry64 Жыл бұрын
I think if Colossus got new trains, it shouldn't have lap bars because I rode Sik & it was very uncomfortable during the heartline rolls. I think it should get the old shoulder restraints like in 2002, the restraints had to be modified to stop riders sticking their legs out of the cars. With modern technology i'm sure they could do something

Yes... YES... YES! So glad you finally covered the mighty Colossus! After meeting you on my birthday trip to Thorpe in late October, it was fantastic to hear your thoughts on my favorite coaster, and after watching this, I fully agree with the points you made. Many don't take the time to properly explain and overview the ride as much as they should before jumping to the natural answer of 'it's rough'. As it's my all time favorite coaster, I'm surely biased, but I also don't find it to be as much the head rattler as others claim it to be. The ambience in the queue line and overall Lost City area is some of the best theming on-park, and is often overlooked by too many. It's got gorgeous detailing carved and etched into the architecture with the Colossus symbol, the wonderful IMAscore soundtrack (which I personally prefer to the original) whistling from the speakers all around the area, not to mention the queue line tunnels and spectacular viewpoints you can get of the coaster from nearly anywhere you choose. I rode it a total of 15 times on that trip, which amused and shocked the ride ops. Sadly it really doesn't get the love it deserves from many Thorpe fans. Most I've spoken to (at best) enjoy the coaster, but don't rush to it straight away. As a whole package, it's probably Thorpe's best, alongside The Swarm. The trains are uncomfortable for sure though that's my only real complaint with the whole experience. I made a full mini-documentary on the coaster and my opinions on it on my channel called 'Colossus: The Story Of 10' if you want to check it out. I'm thinking 2022 is likely the year it will receive it's well-deserved TLC we fans of the coaster are so desperately longing for, as it turns 20 that year. I'm hoping for some limited edition merchandise to add to my already concerningly large collection of Colossus stuff! Let's hope they restore the Lost City to it's former glory come it's big anniversary. Regardless, thank you for reviewing my favorite coaster so eloquently and fairly Shawn, and I hope to run into you again soon! -CTE

Another great video as always Shawn mate. My opinion on Colossus is again it’s a decent ride. When I first rode it back in July 2018, I was on the back row and it was very intense but quite rough. When I rode it 2 months ago in September, it was a lot smoother because I was in the middle row of the train. So I think personally if you want a smooth ride on Colossus go on the middle row upwards but if you go from back row to the row behind the middle it’s a rougher experience. So my overall opinion of Colossus is that it’s a great coaster it may have its rough patches if you’re near the back of the train but from the middle row upwards it’s smoother

Back in the early 2000's I was going to thorpe park pretty regularly. I still remember in 2002 when I went on Colossus it was my first major coaster. As a 10 year old it was a pretty big thing for me to ride and is probably the start of my enjoyment of coasters. Must admit I have not been on for a few years and have not been that much to Thorpe Park. To me I think that it might be a good time to think about a refurb and new trains. The experience could be taken to a new level with modern trains. As you say it was probably the coaster that started a lot of innervation. But it will be 20 years in about 18 months

I had the same issue. I’m 6’3 and a 34 inch waist and I couldn’t fit in the restraints when I went last month either. Which is strange as I’ve ridden it several times before, and haven’t put on any weight (at least I hope so 😂). My friend I was with is a similar size and didn’t get on either. Thankfully was only a 15 minute queue so not too much time wasted. But it’s a bit embarrassing being told you have to get off the ride in front of everyone as people probably naturally assume you’re too overweight for it 😱. We got a queue hop for Nemesis for it though, every cloud 😂

Still for me my overall favourite coaster despite doing over ones which I would consider to be better such as shambhala. For me the fact that it is low down and has great path and foliage interaction makes it for me. Enjoy the teeming, but disappointed I never got to see it in it's original form having been to young at the time. Since 2009 though I have over 500 rides on this and find it the most rerideable coaster at thorpe, havent missed it on a single visit since then. I think the ride also just ranks for me due to personal memories such as it arguably being my first major coaster (excluding an slc but I choose to ignore that) and riding it 23 times without getting off a dead day and consistently spending the last hour of the day just lapping it back in 2011-14 when it was much quieter. I personally dont find it rough, the only jolt I find is at the transition into the vertical loop. However I can see why people find it rough but you have to know how to ride it. Personally I find the back of the cars more comfortable as I am taller, and in particular my favourite seat is the back right seat as you get pulled through some of the elements really nicely, and controversially I do actually like the restraints, idk what it is but the weight of them I think has some sort of psychological effect which makes them work for me. I think as well the chain disengage noises and roar of the ride are what gives it character and makes it better. Whilst it is a shame that less of the ride is over water and the ming is being lost particularly under the vertical loop, im more than happy to lose it to keep the ride running, although it did allow for really nice pictures of the corkscrew before, but do wish that the gravel there could at least have grass over it. However I do think that the train repaint last year really did make them look nice and fresh again. On that note I'd also say that it's got my favourite station, particularly the paintings on the walls and the lighting, particularly when the blue filters are fitted properly by the entrance and the hanging lights are all working. However, I do wish the same that there was something even as basic as a star cloth covering the ceiling, although I'd say its hidden decently enough by the hanging lights. In addition for me the soundtrack is one of the best out there, particularly the original score, I never once got bored of it. Really not a fan of the new one as I feel it doesn't create the same intimidating atmosphere as the original. And then the station announcements and loop are great as well, in particular the dispatch audio is a highlight and builds atmosphere well. Also for me at least it is one of the best night rides out of there as it leaps under and over paths and into and out of darkness, it just makes it feel really out of control and I guess that's what I enjoy about it, it doesn't feel too controlled like some of the other rides out there. Overall colossus is always a highlight for me, disappointed I only got 2 rides on it this year as I was only able to visit once, but look forward to riding it for many years to come for sure and hope that time and money are invested to keep this ride going strong.

I always used to go 1st or 3rd row and that was rough but bearable with some intense elements and great (but painful) hangtime on the quadruple barrel roll. But then after lockdown I got a back row which left me with a headache that lasted 2 days and so I've sworn off riding it until we can choose our rows again. Definitely the worst of the big 5 in my opinion.

Honestly I agree with Shawn, it’s actually one of my favourites with saw being my first. It isn’t as rough for me but I guess height and size is a really big factor. I guess I like the rough rides 😂

Head smashing against the guards and no leg room (at the back) removed the fun for me

When you're off ride it makes an awful rattle especially going up the cobra roll, definitely doesn't have a nice sound like B&M does. Stealth also has tight foot welds, my friend dislocated he knee trying to get on to Stealth.
