The Wave (Drayton Manor)

The Wave is a family sit down looping roller coaster, located at Drayton Manor Resort in Tamworth in the United Kingdom.

Shockwave was retired as a Stand-up coaster on 5 November 2023 to have a new sit down train manufactured by Art Engineering for the 2024 season.

This means that the height limit has been lowered from 1.4m to 1.2m so that a younger audience can experience the ride.

Once riders are at the top the train gradually descends down to the left and drops into the first inversion, a Vertical loop.

Immediately after the corkscrews the train bends to the right where the right hand on ride photo is taken before going down another straight section and turning right to go back into the station where the brake run is also located
