Do you think the Flying Fish was better in it's old location or where it is now?
Comment here.
I think it looks better where it is now, but do miss it going round the bushes ect because it gave a greater sense of speed.

I`m not sorry they put Stealth in in anyway. However, the ride used to seem faster when it was circulating all the bushes. Me and my mates used to have a great laugh on the Fish. Plus it`s theming always seemed great.

Now it just seems kind of naked. Plus it seems a lot slower and less exciting in its new home. The new colour is off to me as well. Today it just seems like a kiddie coaster and looks it too. Really glad we never lost it though, as it holds a lot of memories for me from back in the early days of Thorpe and doing coasters. Was one of my early ticks.

Hmmm I did love it in its old location but like Steve said it does look well bit naked. If they was put a fountain in the ponds or some trees there will look great.

Definitely prefer the old location. It was much more fun.

However, if it was the choice between that staying and no Stealth, or as it is now - well, I love Stealth.

It`s just a shame they couldn`t move all the bushes as well!!!  Razz

Never really had the love affair with the Fish that a lot of people have. Don't think its much of a ride for me, and only really ride as it has a short queue. So glad its where it is, as we've got Stealth!!
