RIPSAW IS COMING BACK to Alton Towers!?

Ripsaw returns to Alton Towers... potentially. A brand new planning application has emerged of the resort wanting to build an 18M tall ride in the place of Funk N Fly.. or in the place Ripsaw used to be in. Funnily enough Ripsaw is also 18m tall and follows the exact same description given by the park in the application. It looks ever more likely that i will be eating my shoe!

I don't know what excited me more - the idea of seeing and riding Ripsaw again, or the idea of watching Dan eat his shoe.

Dan be prepared to eat your shoe! XD

😢😢😂

[@l0wh1n]

Hopefully Ripsaw does return, the Huss Top Spins look really good fun and Towers needs some new flat rides. Awesome video Dan, amazing as always!

[@DigitalDan]

Thank you!!

[@bertieedits]

That setup is looking great and I’m looking forward to hopefully see ripsaw as I never got to ride it

[@ThomasSaxon-mm8yp]

The new background looks so good

[@DigitalDan]

Hopefully more lighting/posters etc to be added soon!! Thank you though! 😊

[@jonathonpotter1059]

I think it's highly likely to be Ripsaw. Which is great because that ride always drew a crowd. There is a rumour of a 3 ride deal with Huss so this would be very much in line with that

[@lukecummins7865]

loving the new room dan!

[@DigitalDan]

Thank you!! More to be added soon hopefully though 🔥

[@DigitalMatt32]

Love you Dan

[@EVILBUNNY28]

Ripsaw was genuinely a good flat ride. It’s up there in my Top 3 of actually fun flat rides that aren’t painful to ride. The other 2 being S&S Screamin’ Swing and S&S Sky Swatter (RIP Slammer)
Submission (Chance Double Swinging Inverters) on the other hand is literally a ride from hell- like seriously I can imagine it sat in the fiery inferno depths of the underworld being used as a torture device for the worst of sins.

[@Benward98]

Great new background

[@CoasterCraze1]

love the new backround

[@Mysterydogreturns]

Other youtubers would never talk about a bet again. Meanwhile, digital Dan, so guys, im going to eat my shoe, and im never going to forget about it

[@knexcoastercreations971]

Needs to be amazing themed

[@lewisransom4694]

Hope your shoe is looking tasty

[@ThrillsofColdplay]

It’s funny because the Top Spin 1 model which Ripsaw and many others are and the Suspended Model is still a thing on the official Huss Website

[@DWT102]

better get polishing that shoe

Funk N Fly 2: Electric Boogaloo

[@twistedcoasters1533]

Will only be riding this the one time, really don’t like top spins but gotta do ripsaw

[@DJWezzyK]

A Huss floorless topspin is 13,5 meters tall without concrete footers. But Huss can produce custom variants on these rides as well. I think personally since Huss admitted on IAAPA that they were talking with Alton Towers, that a floorless topspin could be a thing.

[@Official_Kravers]

shoe timeeeee

[@roryevans4295]

I’m sure back in the day ripsaw was branded to have been a bit that flung off nemesis, with nemesis returning, ripsaw makes perfect sense too

[@donaldmaxwell3428]

old hat i beleve there is a few of these top spin rides in storage ??? ( i saw one on you tube in a abandoned shopping mall )

[@owenjohn1192]

Huss top spins are 13.2 meter in height, it could be a Mondial Splash over @16 MTR in height!

[@UK.Thrills]

you going tk eat hot shoe😂😂 also that text will anoy the hell out of me

Dan, I hope your shoe tastes good

[@BrookeTowers-kk5ni]

@@iliketrains3546. Yep Merlin Entertainment but they are allowed to have competition

[@stratosphericozone2645]

I like your thumbnail name of the ride. I think the Revenge part of the name would be a nice nod to Remeses Revenge and for the story of the awakening Nemesis monster. It would be too confusing to name it Nemesis Revenge so I would name it Revenge on ….. Ripsaw or Phalanx.

[@joecandish3923]

The Concrete Base might be 1.5m tall and the ride classic top spin model on Huss is 16.5m tall so could very well be the return of Ripsaw

[@keatonward7693]

I think they could theme it as the nemesis monster having a bit of a tantrum 😂. The big drill that went across the structure of the ride could be a big tentacle as they are on nemesis, all the things to do with the new nemesis could also be used with ripsaw

[@davegoyeet]

Do a room tour

[@rossodonnell7334]

Dan are you going Thorpe on opening day????

[@dannybeast6660]

The shoe is on its way :)

[@jellylemonade1655]

mmmm tasty leather shoe! eat up Dan!

[@MANNERSMUSICOFFICIAL]

Maybe they’re installing their own abandoned Slammer 😱 that would sit at around 18m

[@siddersthegodatmariokart5655]

Dan how much is your Pixar jumper I saw you wearing it in the Disneyland video. I want to buy one and also don't know where to get it

[@user-vx5fh5rs9y]

Just a random idea, there was a planned project in the Czech republic called orbis park, Wich was planned by the former CEO of the Prague zoo. Could be a intresting video dunno just throwing the idea out there.

[@reborn_sil]

just to mention, ripsaw closed due to huss not making that type of top spin anymore so they couldnt get parts, BUT the newer gen ones (such as talocan) are still 18m, so it doesnt make a difference

[@bradymartin9055]

won’t the actual ride be 14m tall since the concrete structure is 4m tall?

[@yamyampi36]

Laces and all buddy.

[@nathanroberts23]

He's gonna eat his shoe!!!

[@AngelveXo]

with the whole forbidden valley getting a makeover for 2024 i really hope to see ripsaw come back as it would make a great fit since it looks like it could dig out the alien (nemisis) and galactica could get rethemed and be like good vs evil but im js saying it would look really nice to have ripsaw back

[@vincoderso2638]

Due to the measurements, I am not sure if it’s going to be ripsaw,a standard Topspin, has a high of 12 m, it could still be the giant top spin, which is still kind of a rumor cause it’s only have been built once somewhere in the southern east . It would be really interesting to see the giant top spin in real life, there are only a few images of this legendary ride.

[@vincoderso2638]

I did some research, the standard top spin which is still in production has a height of 16.5 m. Suspended has a high of 13.2 m. Top spin 1 had a height of 18 m(!) top spin 2 had a high of 12 m and giant top spin had 20.75 m

I'd be surprised to see it this year.... They don't need the disruption in the area during open season.... One for 2025 I reckon...

[@Pandica-ky9pv]

Dan can we meet somewhere on opening day please?
I would like to explain to you why ripsaw will not be returning
