The Alton castle towers themselves in the background
On the front fields battle galleons
Say cheese!
Aihoy pirates and the cable cars!
The pirate themed Mutiny bay
Aye matety!
Place still quiet just after opening

Pirates show at the Mutiny bay chow area
Peekaboo a castle!
Golf challenge anyone?
The Sonic Spinball whizzer in Adventure Land, sponsored by SEGA
Even the queue lines are themed with games!
It's essentially a crazy mild mouse
with free spinning gongolas!
This drop has some serious airtime!
Heading up the climb!
bah, no steep drops after the climb :(
But we get quite alot of roll time!
talking about rolls, we are hungry after the ride!
X-sector, which could only mean...
Oblivion!
A B&M diving machine & the world's first vertical drop roller coaster.
into a pit of no return!
yes a pit of no return! wahahaha!
The screams attract a considerable audience at times. :P
The ride entrance
Theming is rather good,
with lots of videos& vending machines :P leading up to the station
A car making the climb
The station is packed by very fast moving
B&M divers seats 8 per row of 2
which has quite a high rider turnover given the number of cars in op too
A car departing the station
Anxious riders...
And up she goes!
And down they go!
The exit bend after the tunnel drop before hitting the brake run
Various other flat rides in the X-sector
Submission, a heavily themed Chance inverter on a dual config
though only one is operating
been on too many variants of this ride to fall asleep on. :P
Enterprise is not too far off too
