Wow! i went on wipeout today on a school trip. it took the WHOLE journey from my area to lowestoft to convince me into going on this AWESOME rollercoaster! with all seven of us shaking with both fear and excitement in the queues and singing along to the music, we couldn't wait to get on. when on the ride for the first time with my friend aidan, i couldn't help but to feel like getting right back off the ride, but when the carriages started smoothly riding up the track, i felt a bit more at ease. the rollercoaster hits the top, and suddenly releases you, hurtiling right down a track with awsome loop-de-loops and twists before taking you nearly verticly up again, BACKWARDS! so again, we did the whole track going backwards. it felt so good to be zooming along this awesome ride. i afterwards went on log flume. honestly if you think that's good, you haven't lived. wipeout is totally AWESOME and you need to go on it next time you visit. to be honest most of the rides or attractions at pleasurewood hills are of poor standards and condition and could do with a lick of paint, but this... honestly there is NO faults to this ride in my opinion,   i went on the logflume, got SOAKED and went STRAIGHT back on to the wipeout! its amazing and i HIGHLY recoment this !! thanks for reading! :):)

I think this ride is a good ride, but let me tell you something.  You're wrong about the ride being the best in the east of England, because if you travel up to Lincolnshire, you'll find exactly the same ride at Pleasure Island in Cleethorpes.  It is called the Boomerang.  The Boomerang is smoother than the Wipeout, in my opinion.  But this Wipeout makes up for it, because it is a Vekoma Boomerang! 

I love Boomerangs, even though ther not my favourite coaster, but they are really thrilling.  I think Boomerang's are underrated.  In one way the Wipeout is better than the Boomerang is the colour scheme.  I think the different shades of blue worked well, where the green and white of the Boomerang is a little boring. 

The Wipeout has a better train as well, with more comfortable seats and again, a good colour!  Both rides though have a minimum height of 1.3m and I would easily recommend both of them!

Typical Pleasurewood Hills, running a ride at half capacity. They might learn one day to stop bodging everything. Other than that i's a great ride and a move in the right direction.

Ben's Review

Best ride in Pleasurewood Hills by a mile! Even in general if it is a bit of let down. In my opinion the park should ake more moves in this same direction!

Ben's Review

This ticks all the boxes for me, even though it is relatively short compared to some rides at Thorpe Park or Alton Towers, the ride is very smooth and it gets your adrenalin pumping.

Nick's Review

I first went on Wipeout (many years ago!!) when it was at the American Adventure and called the Missile. Glad to see it's found it's way to one of my favorite parks. We must have picked a good day cos there was no queue and went straight to the front. Nice.

Absolutely fantastic! This is the best ride in the whole park and despite the endless queuing for ages, the experience is brilliant and that's why I give it a five out of five!

Doorian's Review

i was really scared the first time i went on wipeout but once you go on it your fine and really enjoy it.

Cheyenne's Review

Love it, fantastic. The people who run the ride are very kind and always ensure you the ride is not as scary as it looks, and always make sure you think the things that hold you in are tight enough. I have been on this 31 times.

Ben's Review

Vekoma are known for being very rough however I personally found Wipeout to be smooth in comparison.  The overall theme is pretty cool as well, it works well with the coaster. I also like the fact that the ride has music surrounding it unlike most of their other attractions.

Chloe's Review

It is brilliant, if you haven't gone on it, you haven't lived yet! I went on with my friend and we had a brill time its scary when you get draw up at the beginning but when you get off you would be shaking with excitement I give it a 5 out of 5!

Angie's Review

The only ride at PWH worth a vote! C'mon Compagnie des Alpes when are you going to remember you own this park and invest in some decent thrill rides?

Craig's Review

Best ride their the queues are short but dosn't take long to get on if they are long but not as good as other inverting rides out their at Alton Towers and Thorpe Park. but the right idea in putting an inverted coster into pleasurewood hills :)

Scottish Dave's Review

The Wipeout is a classic coaster! While it may not compare to modern designs, this is something you've got to experience. This first caught my attention during the Glasgow Garden Festival (1988?) where I was an envious youngster desperate for a go. I managed to go on it many times several years later while it was at the American Adventure, and have been delighted to find out this evening that it is still in use. 5 fully intend to get to PH to have another go. Get on it!

Oscar's Review

A perfect roller coaster, fun to go on the carts are normally at a great capacity and they get about 480 people on and off there in an hour 4 times the amount on enigma.

Julian's Review

Wipeout is the best ride since Mega Drop, very thrilling and not too rough compared to other Boomerangs!

Josh's Review

It's great to finally have an inverting rollercoaster at Pleasurewood Hills.  Fantastic thrill and a well deserved 5/5.

Why do they run this at half capacity and very slow loading? Could be improved greatly so i rate this low as queuing ruins the ride experience.
