The Ultimate - Lightwater Valley front seat POV

The longest coaster in Europe!

1.5 miles of relentless 50mph terrain-coaster goodness! The Ultimate opened in 1991 and was part-built by British Rail. The Ultimate features two lift hills and two tunnels.

The coaster is well known for it's brutal yet pleasurable ride experience - riders bound all over the place!

Even though the camera was mounted, the video captures the rough charm and character that makes The Ultimate a unique experience. Much better than a smooth video...where's the fun in that?

We have a 3D point of view video of The Ultimate - search for it on our channel! (You'll need 3D glasses to view.)

I'm confused... is this wooden, steel or a hybrid???

[wwwCOASTERFORCEcom]

@CastFireNews It's not a hybrid, it's steel.

Coasterforce, how do they prevent animals from running into the track?

Would be pretty bad.

[wwwCOASTERFORCEcom]

@nr1shithead No, free roaming animals in the park & they have a fence around the park to keep them out.

Ok CF be honest, is this fun to ride? i mean out of all the dope coasters you've ridden...

[wwwCOASTERFORCEcom]

@Drel444 Yes, it's great fun. OK, so the lift hills are mega slow and boring, but the way it roughly whips through the valley is different from the typical coaster experience! It's amazing!

@bradmitchgreg It's not long in real life.

@wwwCOASTERFORCEcom Years ago a boy had to go hospital because a deer was on the track. Now they have got a fence.

7 minutes?! I mean sure, the lift hills are insanely slow, but 7 minutes?! Not even The Beast can say that!
