oh i can't believe i was absent from the forum for my moment of glory!

well force 10 was hugely popular back in its day. and if its put in a good spot it does well, otherwise, it is one of those rides that will sadly sit there. the last time is saw it, it was at a regional show, in the back corner, it didn't go very often, though i was looking respectable after a major overhaul. i was disappointed with the name change to extreme force.

is this the only force 10 we have in Australia? I seem to recall it ages ago looking a hell of a lot different?
Myabe its just my young years playing tricks on me though (i remember in later years seeing the rainbow at the show and it appeared to go nowhere near as high up as it used to lol)

you can't change 26 meters. Sometimes in the surroundings the ride looks different in size. I know seeing ZIPPER at Dandenong, it looked massive for some reason, and then you see it in Sydney, and it looks like nothing.
Same with NO LIMIT, it looked smaller at Dandenong, unlike the Melbourne Show
