It was great to meet you on opening day, and thank you for having a photo with my son he is a mega fan @typicalcofficial , We had 2 rides on Hyperia, both in row 2, 1 ride was very much OMG what just happened, second ride again was OMG what just happened but with a bit more clarity, I would agree with you overall, other than expanding that the trim breaks on the splash down make sense to give you the feeling as you splash down just like on tidal wave, however the water jets timing is too delayed and would be good if you had a little spray land on you to give that feeling of just going into water, I would probably back off the trim break a little, this ride is just incredible and is both our UK number 1 Coaster, with no doubt, for us followed by Nemesis Reborn and then the Smiler. Hyperia is plain and simply just Epic, we are soo lucky to have this ride in the uk and within an hour from where we live.

Our family waited an eye watering 6.5h on opening day to ride. In my honest opinion the chain lift is very noisy and it needs more theming in the line. The ride itself was amazing. The seating was very comfortable and the airtime was one of the best I’ve experienced. I can’t wait to ride again. Best part of opening day was meeting you though!

As someone whos somehow ended up on Hyperia 3 times so far, and front row twice. I have to say its the best coaster Ive ever been on lol. My friends all reviewed it as Fantastic, and one thought it was way different from even swarm or stealth. He was so impressed about it lol. Its incredible, feels so safe and its so nice. Obviously queues suck, but it was so nice to ride.

Oh I just realised! Well, I kind of saw it before but a light bulb moment when you said - look at that first drop. It isn't just a big Sky Rocket II drop people... it's MORE THAN VERTICAL, at the same time as twisting 180 degrees. Oh John Burton (not Wardley - maybe Merlin in UK have a pre-requisite for designing their rides - you must be called John!) - but yeah you knocked it out the park. Of COURSE you're out of the seat the entire drop, it's just physics. He really thought about maximising this airtime eh. Hats off. Just take a look at a side on pic of Hyperia's drop people...

Great ride. From the back that first drop is super intense. The outerbank turn is weird because with the inversion it feels like its turning left but we know it's actually a right handed turn. The splashdown you cant see any water when on the ride - they need it to splash earlier (and get you wet). The music in the queue line is too loud (I may just be old). A 2 hour queue with that music and base blaring away is just too much. Turn it down please Thorpe Park.
