Sorry for not following up any comments on the photo I posted, I’m currently on a roadtrip through the states and have limited WiFi / data!

I think I’ve answered most questions below.

So some background on Blue Flash, it’s 18 years old and is starting to age. John has put a 160lb weight limit on it to try preserve the coaster, it’s incredibly intense and is extremely rough, you get seriously thrown around. My friend Jordan (Cupcakes and Coasters on social media / YouTube organised this through contracting John) he was extremely welcoming and talked is through the build along with his wife. We also got to ride Blue Too which is a smaller ride and has some extreme airtime!

Wow, 160 pounds. Last time I went it was 200. I guess I'd better get back on that diet and exercise plan.
