    water chute ridden by myself many time at various ages with various members of my family over very many years, including a grandma, mother, brother and sisters, friends, and also my son..so a ride that has served many generations . The steps up to the water chute still being the original old style Wicksteed type as used on many Wicksteed playground slides. They still had a massive array of playground equipment of Wicksteed design including their more elaborate slides back in the late 60's and early 70's. As a child they were well worth experiencing even when you had a wristband for paid rides to use.

    The Water shute ride that's the same concept of what the Devil Cascade was at Lightwater Valley and I can't believe they got rid of it was one of my favourite ride

    LOL, Did Tom have a limp walking back from the Pinfari ? What park were you at that had the hydro plane boats? I thought that was Wicksteed.....then again....I know nothing. Finally some Pov's from Wicksteed! My Coaster Crazy collection has grown. Great show again!

    • @126smiffy

      they did have some small single person type chute/hydro plane boats that went down slides and skimmed the water at one time in the past

    Charles Wicksteed will the stirring in his grave.
    He created that park so the people of Kettering could go there for free. As usual, another cash-cow for KBC.

    • @Coaster_Crazy
      @Coaster_Crazy  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      bob f it’s still free to enter the park minus the car park fee of course and rides are extra fee

    • @nickphipp1949
      @nickphipp1949 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      To be fair, entry is still free - a real rarity as theme parks go. Also, Wicksteed Park remains run by a charitable trust, not KBC. Growing up poor, I can remember many great days out there as a kid, which didn't cost a fortune. In theory, you could take a whole family for a day out at Wickies (including a few rides and unlimited use of the playground, walks, picnic areas, etc.) for less than the cost of one ticket to Alton Towers.
