ICON | Blackpool Pleasure Beach
ICON is a launched roller coaster at Blackpool Pleasure Beach in Blackpool, Lancashire, England. Manufactured by Mack Rides of Germany, the ride opened on 25 May 2018 at a total cost of £16.25 million. The ride is the first multi-launch roller coaster in the United Kingdom, and the first brand new rollercoaster at the park in 24 years. it uses a series of linear magnetic synchronous motors to propel and slow the trains along the track. Icon serves as the park's sixth steel roller coaster and tenth roller coaster overall. The name "Icon" was announced on 10 April 2017 with the tagline, "Dare To Ride”.
The generic height restriction for Icon is 130 centimetres (51.2 in), in order to be able to experience the ride from the back row, guests must be at least 150 centimetres (59.1 in) tall. This is due to the back row seats being designed for larger guests. A "Speedy Pass" is available for the ride (this gives you the ability to skip a queue), being accessible from the bottom of the big dipper steps. Speedy Pass riders embark from a queue parallel to the main queue inside of the station and are generally boarded on the back row of the ride unless the rider is under 150 centimetres (59.1 in).
The ride begins by slowly rolling out of the station to the launch area. Riders can hear an intense buildup with the voiceover saying "Icon" to mark the 50 miles per hour (80 km/h) LSM launch, through a tunnel into an 82 feet (25 m) tall top hat element. The top hat then passes under the Big One's lift hill. This is followed by a shallow non-inverting inclined loop before a series of banked turns, intertwining with the Big Dipper and Steeplechase before turning over steeplechase's brake run and navigating through a Downward Barrel Roll. After diving into another tunnel, a second LSM launch follows 53 miles per hour (85 km/h), which goes into a non-inverting 88.5-foot-tall (27.0 m) Junior Immelmann loop, the tallest part of the layout. A series of highly banked turns, airtime hills, a helix and 2 S-curves follow, before the train hits the final brake run and re-enters the station,
The on-ride photo is taken prior to the train entering the tunnel on the first launch.
