1. ROLLERCOASTERS AT ALTON TOWERS By Joshua waite

2. RUNAWAY MINE TRAIN Length – 1000 foot Speed – 22.4 mph Drop – 36 foot Inversions – 0 What I think – This is my favourite ride. You only have to be 0.9 meters to go on it. I like it when they say “one more time guys “choo choo””. This is the first roller caster I ever went on at Alton Towers.

3. AIR Length – 2760 foot Speed – 47 mph Inversions – 2 What I think – When you first go on Air it feels like you are flying through the air like Superman. I don’t like it when you first get on it because the seats really tilt which feels weird.

4. THE SMILER Length – 3840 foot Speed – 52.8 mph Drop – 98 foot Inversions – 14 What I think – This is the first rollercoaster in the world to have 14 upside down bits. You even go upside down before you get outside of the station. This is the most scary ride I have ever been on.

5. OBLIVION Length – 1223 foot Speed – 68.4 mph Drop – 180 foot Inversions – 0 What I think – It’s a really good ride and the best part about it is when you hang down over the edge and then when you go underground. The only problem is that it is too short and needs to have more bumps.

6. NEMESIS Length – 2349 foot Speed – 50 mph Drop – 104 foot Inversions – 4 What I think – This ride is 20 years old and this means that its really old. So this makes it really bumpy and bashes you about when you are on it. It is important to keep your head back on this ride.

7. THIRTEEN Speed – 41 mph Drop – 56 foot Inversions – 0 What I think – This is a really good ride and is quite new. My favourite part of this ride is when you go into the room that is dark and you get dropped down twice. It also thunders and lightning's in the room before you drop.

8. RITA Length – 2099 foot Speed – 61.1 mph Drop – 52 foot Inversions – 0 What I think – Out of all the rides on here this is my least favourite ride. This is because I don’t like rides that set off very fast. I prefer rides that go up a hill first before it starts going fast because I like to go down hills fast and I am ready for it if I can see it coming.
