CROC DROP - Chessington NEW For 2021 Drop Tower - More Details Announced!

[@williamlane2758]

That theming is incredible! As soon as parks are back open, first stop chessington! 👍

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Can’t wait to see the finished product!

[@mccoasters6794]

Definitely a worthy successor to Ramsey’s revenge

[@MB-vu6ks]

I kind of agree In terms or it being impressive offridr much like RR however from an enthusiasts perspective it doesn’t set the park apart from others whereas RR was unique

[@mccoasters6794]

I think what CD will lack in thrills it will make up for it with theming and a good storyline

[@spiggypop]

Ramsey's revenge..is that a new cooking show?

This ride looks so good. I love a good drop tower

[@Tobsies124]

I’ve always said the one thing chesington needs is a drop tower!

[@worldwideview6974]

Can’t wait to ride it after lockdown! 😁 hope it is as good as I thought.

[@GarryWilliams555]

I'm expecting a similar ride experience to Magma at Paultons Park. Looks like a decent addition but I think it's a pity that Chessington decided to remove their big thrill ride. I know it's a family park but throwing in a thrill ride or 2 is never a bad thing.

[@underscore_richard]

Brilliant ride i hope my home park Toverland gets one in the future it would fit perfectly

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It would indeed!

[@stevensales7502]

I want Michigan's Adventure to get a drop tower

[@TVflix1]

It looks great! The only problem is the wait will be super long with such a low trough put and because it’s chessington. I think they should of added two drop towers.

[@papermateinkjoy7407]

Thank you Shaun for the update! I am eagerly looking forward to this ride because it looks really good and thrilling! Thank you Shaun for keeping us updated with the news. Keep rocking Shaun!!!!

I can't wait. I'm going in the summer 😁😁

[@garywoodley5597]

I cant wait first stop chessington after reopening

[@matthewlaneee]

looks amazing ! since chessington is my home park, i am so so excited to ride something new, and it will be my first time on a drop tower when i get on it in the new season (hopefully soon) !!

[@norfolkpyro5510]

Croc drop looks better than oblivion imo like the design

[@SuperSized16]

It looks great - theming and music seem brilliant! Throughput will be a huge issue though - 16 riders at a time, queues will be 1 hour plus for most of the season. Chessington badly needs a ride with high throughput - queues are out of control there...

[@meverything2216]

The theming looks Incredible! I love drop towers

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It certainly is!

[@jillr2102]

hi! im super late to this vid, but im soooo excited for the new drop tower. excited to see whether it'll top rameses!

[@millieseymour1823]

i am so excited for this ride can not wait!!! especially can't wait to see what the pre-show or whats at the bottom of the drop theming will be like!

[@FM-10]

Chessington are really steeping up the theming for a drop tower!

[@annaellison7492]

Nice to see that merlin are putting in a new flat ride.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It certainly is!

[@ben.c15]

i cant wait to go on it

Croc drop looks awesome and great video Shaun. 🐊⬇️

The Croc reminds me of the cobra on cobra's curse at Busch Gardens Tampa.

oh boy can't wait for crocodile god excorsism the ride

[@michaelmaddin9003]

Thanks Shawn this looks brilliant love this park

[@thellamaking7248]

Very well themed fantastic audio please release the rest of it Nick Yes especially Social Distancing Throughtputs missing some of those 16 seats in-between parties are going to be very slow maybe the slowest on park try ito Ride it on an off peak weekday I think they were inspired by Oblivion’s logo when designing it but in a different way just imagine how. Similar to Oblivion it would be if the logo was orange instead of green

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

I’m sure we’ll hear the rest of the audio soon!

[@anabeast3464]

Cant wait! We going in august in 2021 I’m gonna ride this👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽😜😜

[@petermc7098]

Hello There, a great video and it was great to hear your perspective on this, I think it's a good thing that they have the perspex screens up, but you are right there's a slight concern on throughput, however as long as they get good operations on there it should be fine. Keep up the good work. Cheers Peter :)

Hopefully something will eventually replace it

Looks fantastic, and I love the theming! It's not for me though, as I hate drop towers. Give me a huge coaster any day!

[@fuzzy-g8898]

Good little addition that I didn't think would fit into that area, but looks as though it does! I do think Chessington are going a bit too far with the whole jungle/forest theme though. Maybe a new themed area would be good too...

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It certainly is looking great!

[@MB-vu6ks]

Same chessington already has lots of family rides now RR. Has gone there is no inverting rides.

[@eddiejeffery7015]

@@MB-vu6ks exactly. at least one inverting ride gives the park variety

[@michaelgreenslade7260]

It appears to have dual levels One with the swing out seats One level with secured seats.

[@subwayexpress465]

I don't think that it will be that forceful, but that is completely understandable for the target market. On opening day I will make a mad dash to the ride as the park opens to hopefully beat the big queue that will come afterwards. I hope that the queue line is themed as children in the queue will not want to wait in a boring queue line with no theming.

Love the vids mate keep it up 💯❤

Correct me if im wrong, is detonator at thorpe a 16 seater? I mnow its a fabbri o completely different model....croc drop is going to be a great edition to the southern parks! You will have jungle bouncers for the little ones and croc drop for the taller ones

[@coolchick7197]

Think ive done a similar one...i rode tikal at phantasialand almost 3 years ago now

It’ll certainly be a great addition. Detonator only has 12 seats!

[@RandomStuffOk]

I love this!!

[@Kieben1112]

Is it me or dose the crock drop logo looks a bit like the oblivion logo and I would rather have the husk top spin there but they are heading down the children’s route so it is going to be great

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It does indeed look of a similar style!

[@flyingscotsman7914]

Incidentally, I noticed Shawn’s hair was sticking up as hopefully he washed it. Yes the music in the teaser sounds like Jaws as we know crocodiles are like sharks being super dangerous apart from Tom who is a friendly crocodile from Spot the dog. Have you and Shawn had the first covid vaccine yet as hopefully it will be me in 2 weeks as make sure you and him stay safe?😊

[@coastercountdowns6769]

Capacity is a problem for lots of rides at chessington so this will be no different

[@suzannecowan8543]

I think the capacity could be helped if they had a pre loading area so instead of 16 people leaving the queue to ride it would be 32 people with 16 on the ride and another 16 waiting for the next cycle

[@calicorx752]

I would really like to go on this ride. I hope it’s not to tall of a drop as I hate tall drops

Shame its not a Intamin Drop Tower! One of the over 300ft beasts! :-)

[@MB-vu6ks]

Adventure island in there inside bit have a smaller sbf drop tower. Unfortunately it is the least reliable ride at the park. It’s really sensitive to weight. I believe this taller version uses the same ride technology ? Opposed to a catch car at top which tows the gondela up it has wires which pull it up. These from a maintenance point of view are a nightmare and the slightest imbalance to weight affects the ride
