Infusion isn't too bad a coaster, especially considering it's an SLC. I have been on SLC's which have been a lot rougher than Infusion, even if Infusion is a tad rough at times it still has a number of great elements which make it stand out at Blackpool Pleasure Beach. - Michael Owen

Again, another under-rated ride! This ride is amazing! Sure it may be bumpy and slightly rough, but it's not horribly rough like Alton Towers' Corkscrew. The themeing and water effects are fantastic! Sit in the front seat of Infusion if you wanna get wet! Also the colour scheme is beautiful, i don't think there is a better SLC anywhere! You travel at such a speed which is frightening, but in a way, fun! Definately worth going on, one of the smartest moves by the Pleasure Beach! Another element is the amount of footchopers you encounter through the course of the ride! 9/10 - jack briggs

Someone has voted here and given it a 5/10, but i disagree it is much more like 8-9/10. Thats why i have said it is outstanding! I liek the fact that the ride is sat under the shadow of the Pepsi Max, it makes it feel like a small insignificant ride when your waiting, b ut when you ride it, i just couldn't get enough, good first drop and then those corkscrews in the middle or fantastic, and when you get to the end you want to ride it again. Moreover i was very pleased with the speed of the queue, it cleared very quickly, especially as it was a new ride when i went last year! - Ben Dore
