If they included a meal in the Hotel with this I'd be in.

They didn't. So It's a no from me.

Have they taken out a new insurance policy to cover this? Is that why it's so expensive?
 
Whilst not for me personally, I think this is a great idea, given that other parks are doing similar things. Personally wouldn't want to spend £100 on doing this when I could be doing other things.

I think there are a fair few enthusiasts who would love it.
 
I would love to do this, but £100 doesn't seem justifiable for me. Is park admission included in the price? - for non-passholders this could end up being extremely expensive, especially if booking for more than one person.
 
£100 is absolutely madness for what you get, you can get a similar experience at Alton Towers on Nemesis for £90 (which i see is only £10 difference) or £76 for pass holders, but as part of the ones at Towers you get fastrack parking and a one shot fastrack for the attraction. But for this one i see you dont get much with it other than the experience itself.

Its a no from me for the wave track walk as it is not worth it at all.
