Review:
Storm
in a Teacup was built in 1985, and was rethemed from Teacup Twisters
in 2004. Riders walk onto the ride, choose a teacup, sit in it
with a couple of other people, and the floor and cups start to
rotate. You can rotate the cups faster if you so desire, by
turning the wheel in the middle of the cup.
The
ride will make you dizzy, and it's fun to watch everyone else's
reactions and facial expressions as you whizz around. The ride
lasts a couple of minutes, and riders generally walk off feeling
quite dazed.
Storm
in a Teacup is a fun ride to experience with family or friends.
It's not hugely thrilling, it's not that fast, and it definately
isn't a rare ride - you can find these rides at most travelling
fairs. However, it will make you hilariously dizzy, and there is a
degree of intensity to the ride. Don't
go out of your way to ride it, though.
Positives:
- Riders
can control the intensity of their ride.
- Well
themed for a standard teacups ride.
Negatives:
- No
different to any other teacups ride in any other Park.
- Highly
disorientating.
