    Primeval Whirl

    A waltzer on rails high up in the sky - terrified me! Just as you think you are going off the end of the rails, the car whizzes itself around and you go in another direction. I hated it but 8yr old loved it.

    We tried this out for the first time a couple of weeks ago and thought it was really good, great for all the family, enough thrills for the real dare devils and not tooooooooo scary for me

    I strapped my camera to my wrist and took some great pics of my mother-in-law on this ride. [msnsmile2]

    She's nearly 70 and doesn't do thrill rides....she had trouble walking in a straight line afterwards, but it was worth it !!

    myself & my lad Jake went on this 7 or 8 times during our last trip. Jake has mobility problems but loves rollercoasters & this is one of his favorites. Depending who you get in the car with you influences the spin speed as well

    Primeval Whirl is quite a good, exciting ride without being in the 'white knuckle' class. I think PW often gets biased reviews and I feel that it is better than what some reports make it out to be. Like BTMR, PW is a good 'second step' coaster for those gradually overcoming their fears and climbing up the rollercoaster ladder.

    I was very underwhelmed by this ride to be honest....but I do think the whole of Chester and Hesters is terrible as well.

    I've had more of a thrill in a similar vein from the two bit travelling fairs in the UK on the Waltzers. Now *that's* a spinning ride

    My first job as Disney CEO would be to rip out Chester and Hesters.
