Spotlight: The Ten Inversion Coaster

Posted on August 22, 2009 in Uncategorized by

The first ever ten inversion roller coaster opened on the 22nd of March 2002 at Thorpe Park, England.

The next morning after I visited Six Flags Discovery Kingom (Part 1, Part 2, Part 3) me and my family headed out to the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk.  I wasn’t expecting much as I only did a little bit of research on the park but I was really quite impressed.  Not only was the park well rounded, but the employees...
