Rage Offride 4K Adventure Island Southend

Despite being the smallest of the 3 Gerstlauer Eurofighters in the UK, Rage certainly packs a punch. Its compact layout features 3 inversions, including a vertical loop, cutback and heartline roll, along with its signature element - a thrilling 97° beyond vertical drop. The 22 metre tall roller coaster is the signature attraction at Adventure Island, a small seaside amusement park in Southend-on-sea, Essex. Opening back in 2007, Rage was the very first 320+ Eurofighter model built by Gerstlauer, with 4 clones having been built since. These include Falcon at Duinrell, Predator at IMG Worlds of Adventure and Canobie Lake Park's Untamed. There are also 2 more coasters, Hydrus and Adrenaline Peak, that sport very similar layouts but lack the 360° helix finale. Overall, there are over 24 different Gerstlauer Eurofighters operating worldwide, with more well known installations including Mystery Mine at Dollywood, Takabisha at Fuji-Q Highland in Japan and Dare Devil Dive at Six Flags over Georgia. British viewers might notice similarities to Thorpe Park's Saw the ride and Speed at Oakwood - these are the same type of coaster too!
The park is also home to 4 more coasters, including Green Scream and Mini Mighty Mighty Mega. The free-to-enter amusement park is also known for its collection of unique and intense flat rides, particularly Axis, Dragon's Claw and Time Machine.

Huhh
My first looping coaster and last one for less than 3 years
I was 10 and the rough ride traumatized me and I never went on a roller coaster in 3 years until I was on a school trip to Thorpe park and I got a chance to go on the swarm which quickly change my mind because I loved it
Hech I even managed to enjoy colossus and got a front row on nemesis inferno
Give you a tip
When on colossus, stiffen up your neck and push yourself towards the back of the chair.
Because when everyone else exists with a headache
You would of had a vastly improved experience and even enjoy the ride
