    I don't think they have got the funds to do anything major with the Big One but are probably delaying maintenance as long as they safely can to help fund other projects like removing and replacing the Grand prix.

    I remember when this was all shiny and new, I was 9 years old and it looked so massive and impressive, especially before they modified the first drop. I would be sad to see it go, and I get it is very iconic, but it is 80s technology and after the first drop it can be a bit underwhelming. I think if the park could finance it they could definitely alter it or replace it and make the space really special.

    As someone who is a theme park person more than a coaster/thrill person, I really appreciate Efteling for what it is. It is absolutely magical if youre somebody who can get lost in stories and almost child like wonder. But its definitely *not* a thrill park and I actually think its a good thing because there's some nice entry level/intermediate thrills for younger audiences ready to experience it.

    • @yourexperienceguide
      @yourexperienceguide Před dnem

      I've never really understood why Efteling is considered to be a magical place, this recent visit was my third time there and most likely to be the last. I wouldn't really class Baron, Joris or Python as family coasters, I've got a 6 year old and he wouldn't do any of those even though he's tall enough for 2 of them.

    • @ScaredyCatRidesRides
      @ScaredyCatRidesRides Před dnem

      @yourexperienceguide oh no I wouldn't class them as family coasters either, but I think they're a good level for those dipping their toes into thrills. Like if you have a family with some kids who just want to eat ice creams and watch shows and some kids who've been waiting to try going upside down and are excited for it, then it's all bases covered. They're probably not for most 6 year olds but I'm sure there are more than a few with parents dreading the thought of having to go on a big ride with them 😂 at least then they aren't too big. It's really hard to describe why I find it so magical but as a child I LOVED fairytales, like had a big book of classic ones an could just devour them. Now as an adult I get to skip off in that world and forget my responsibilities. I love disappearing into the realm of the fairies or seeing Pardoes get into mischief - literally when the stairs part in Symbolica I feel like a five year old, it's magical each time. But I think you're either someone who can get lost in that or you're not and it's all valid! Ps at the secret weapon event on Saturday- SO looking forward to it

    If Universal decide to go ahead with a UK park in Bedfordshire, I don't think it will matter what BPB (sorry, Pleasure Beach resort) do with the Big One. Once the Universal park opens circa 2030, other UK parks, and especially English parks will seriously have to up their game, and sadly I just don't think the Pleasure Beach has the money to do so.
