Ripsaw - Alton Towers, UK (HD)

Ripsaw came to the Alton Towers Resort in 1997. It is a Huss Top Spin with the added feature of 35 powerful water jets, which aim to soak the riders.

The ride fits into the valley very well and is themed as a piece of shrapnel which was thrown out of the Nemesis pit, the rusty appearance means it matches the nearby Blade.

it looks small on utube,

when u see it in real life its big!

its near the blade & nemesis right ?

@muteeb09 Correct! ;)

[CreativityCam1]

they have 3 settings, this is the one ususally used on a busy day as its the shortest.

But the ride Op has controls so they can make up their own sequence. They hardly ever do it but when they do its usually really good!
