I\u2019ve been really mourning the ability to experience a few ride types lately. I know we probably have some of the listed below, but in my opinion nowhere near enough of them. So here\u2019s some ride types I\u2019d love to see more off. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Indoor is much preferred with immense level of theming. But outdoor would do. We have a few, yes. But nowhere near enough. We need definitely need more. I can\u2019t help but look at Drayton Manor on this one. I\u2019d love to see Pirates Adventure show building in its former glory again, with a new theme of course or updated a version of Pirates.\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Sadly it seems this is a dying breed of ride. For someone like myself who is basically a log flume enthusiast, it\u2019s sad to see. I\u2019d love to see more pop up in the nearby future. Yet I accept the fact it\u2019s highly unlikely to happen.\"\" <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/h2>\n

Again I know we have a few with some parks like Thorpe Park been quite heavy on this front. Yet there\u2019s other parks which barely have any. I love a flat ride for the in between rides part of the day. It\u2019s an easy way to equal queues out and simply spread the guest across the park. Yet we barely have any anymore.\"\" <\/span><\/p>\n

There\u2019s 3 of the ride types I would personally love to see more of across the UK. I\u2019d love to hear yours as well. <\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
