Tail Spin review by Richard
by Richard, 9 years ago
Individually-controlled wings for spinning means this ride can be one of two things: gently sweeping through the air, or gently sweeping through the air while frantically rotating. As a flat ride it's one that would work for the whole family were it not for its prohibitive rider height restriction. It really is a pleasant ride by any measure. Marketed as a major thrill ride is where Tail Spin lets itself down; it's by far the weakest link in the park's "Big Thrill Rides" collection.
Tail Spin is not a thrill ride.

Review Criteria
Enjoyment
Perfectly enjoyable ride that offers the novel addition of rider interaction.Effectiveness
Great as a family ride but really a very weak inclusion in their "Big" thrill ride collection.Intensity
There's really no intensity to speak of, and certainly not the kind you'd expect from something billed as a major thrill ride.Rider Comfort
Pacing
Theming/Storyline
Pleasantly themed surrounds show Dreamworld at their best: well executed surrounds that gently set the scene.Upkeep/Presentation
Queue/Efficiency
Cycling through only twelve riders at a time with an arduous load and unload procedure means you lengthy waits unless you join anything but the shortest of queues.More Reviews
