a good water ride but you dont get that wet unless you sit at the back. the ride has a good theming and has 3 reasonably
good drops but the water needs some serious attention, it is awfully dirty and the build up of bile is quite disusting.

really good , but i think the line is too long and needs to be cleaned , especially the amount of litter on the light
house is horrible , but the rides good , line was well too long though , got bored , had nothing to say to my friend ,
also i think that because your going like 45 mph and its really tall , and steep that they really need to install some
type of harness of some sort , when it goes up your like sliding about , but was so scary when your going down as , its
really steap and you come right out your seat as theres nothing keeping you in , i was holding on for dear life! , i
really didnt want to die 2 days before my b day lol.

Not as good as Valhalla, but still a fantastic water ride. Also it is brilliant that DMP are donating to such a good
cause.

After not really wanting to ride this it turned out to be my favourite water ride i have rode.but the downside was this
ride kept stopping and we were at the station in the boat for 10 mins just waiting for the mechanic to fix

Waste of time, only saving grace was the backwards drop and a comparatively good queue line.

It's an okay ride, But the only really good drop is the backwards one. The rest of the ride I find boring, and the final
drop would have been better if it was like Logger's Leap at Thorpe's.

Stormforce 10 the best water ride ever. I recommend sittin at the back to get realy wet. If you sit at the front, you
ein't gonna get that wet

I didnt get at all wet on the final drop. The backwards drop got me soaked however. Very,very long queue when I was
there. Wasnt really worth the wait I expected much more of a thrill out of this. Tidal Wave at Thorpe Park looks a lot
better. Only go on this if the queue is short or you have time to spare.

The water was filthy so I put a ponch on. It was okay the backwards drop was cool but other part bored me.

Wet at the back not so wet at the fun so if you know the ride you can choose how wet to get. You will get wet no matter
where you sit but on the bacwards drop it is so funny to get lots of water in the lap of whoevers in the back.
Especially if they don't know thats what will happen. just don't go on apocalypse strait afterwards.

Good drop, and great backwards drop, but I agree with coasterchris, not nearly as good as Valhalla. Though Valhalla is
in the dark, so I suppose I can't really compare.

Water is filthy, if you go on it on a cold day your wet all day, its a great water ride though and great for a good
soaking.

I love this water ride it is great. My favourite drop is the Back drop it gets you soaked. The only thing with this ride
is the fact that the water is green and rather sickening.

Surprised to see so many positive comments about this ride. It has some great drops and starts off strong but there's
far too many sections where nothing happens and you're moving slowly along flat sections. This means it's does get quite
boring. Still worth a ride if the queues not too long just for the backwards drop.

Nicely themed. The q-line is long with queues lasting atleast an hour on peak-season.
Hint- Sit at the front, you get
more wet at the back than on both forward drops ;)

the best water ride in the country you get soaked on the back drop and that is the best drop on the ride. the thing i
hate about it is the colour of the water it makes me sick

The best water ride I have gone on. Don't go on the front, it sucks. You have to go on the back. The theming is amazing
and the ride itself is impressive. There's a good reason why this is popular.

I thought this was a fantastic ride and well worth the nearly 1 hour time spent queueing for it. The first drop out of
the station is groovy, although i think the final drop should have been one large steep slope, instead of a double-down.
Still great though.

As already been said, do not sit at the back unless you are protected by a poncho, wellies and loads of waterproof gear,
like life boat men. Not only will you get wet on the backward drop but all the water runs to the back on the hills, and
it gets pretty deep, eg coming up to the seats. Me and my dad sat at the back stupidly, didn't dry all day. But this is
the best water ride I have ever been on.
