So I was thinking about the rollercoasters which I think would of be perfect for those who are yet to experience a bigger rollercoaster than Mack Powered ones for example. This blog is our recommendations and ideas for those under 1.4m. We\u2019ve included the coasters we\u2019ve rode and one from each major park. They\u2019ll be another few more blogs similar to come. We hope this helps for any trips planned within the summer holidays.<\/em><\/p>\n

Icon at Blackpool Pleasure Beach;<\/h2>\n

If you or your children are little thrill seekers at heart they\u2019ll love Icon! All seats are 1.3m\u2019s with the back row been 1.5m due to the more accommodating restraints. The overall ride experience is perfect for the first thrill ride! There are only two inversions but you only really feel the one personally. The launches certainly aren\u2019t all that thrilling as they are gradual\u00a0 build of speed rather than all at once. We\u2019d personally recommend this to anybody for their first big coaster. The queue goes down really fast even if the queue is outside the entrance it\u2019s highly unlikely it\u2019s anymore than 30\/40 minutes. I think when a queue moves well it leaves less time to think and watch it too much.\"\"<\/p>\n

Wickerman at Alton Towers;<\/h2>\n

If your a little of the dark, anxious or have a medical condition which makes you sensitive to flashing lights. You can ask the ride host to skip it and they will take you round directly to the station. It\u2019s quite common that younger one\u2019s dislike that part of the experience. But of course not everyone is the same it\u2019s worth a try to find out if they dislike it or not. However the coaster itself is super fun and perfect for anyone who are looking to up their coaster experience and intensity. Be sure to head to this coaster first thing in the morning to try and beat the queues. It can get extremely busy with queues over an hour long most days.\"\"<\/p>\n

Vampire- Chessington World of Adventures;<\/h2>\n

Although when visiting Chessington almost all rides are suitable. But our main recommendation is Vampire. During the summer holiday\u2019s this can very busy so again we\u2019d recommend heading their straight away.\"\"<\/p>\n

Accelerator- Drayton Manor;<\/h2>\n

If visiting Drayton Manor over the summer holidays be sure to head to this coaster nice and early. This coaster gets very busy it\u2019s probably the best coaster at Drayton Manor. It\u2019s the perfect thrill for those who can\u2019t do the bigger coasters and it\u2019s fun for everyone!\"\"<\/p>\n

Flying Fish- Thorpe Park;<\/h2>\n

This is Thorpe Park\u2019s only coaster for those under 1.4m. It\u2019s a decent coaster for those younger one\u2019s and we find it a lot of fun especially when you have good operators! Flying Fish rarely gets queues even throughout summer holidays. \"\"<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
