try getting two consecutive rollbacks on the same ride, and the coaster going between 123 and 125 mph...with 4 maintenance guys standing alongside the track, and being in the front row....yep awesome!
@JWoodFoto the little flaps are there as brakes to slow the roller coaster down if it does roll back, which it did. the flaps retract for each launch and come back up as soon as the coaster is on its way up. and plus they would never send out the next ride until the entire track was cleared. these actually happen pretty often
rollbacks aren't that common but they're not dangerous... rides like this work to minimise the amount of energy needed to power the coaster, after the initial launch the rest of the ride is simply propelled by gravity but if that first push isn't strong enough it won't go anywhere
holy shit!! I went on this thing just today. thank god I didn't see this until right now. don't get me wrong I love rollercoasters but I defiantly would have shitted my pants
wow - never seen the dragster on rollback - only kingda ka . which is just a copy of the top thrill dragster . but i guess it was newer then , doesnt rollback anymore .
a couple of days ago i went there and it was about 8 pm and almost everyone had left cause of the cold but we stayed there and there was no line and we asked them if they could make it roll back so they weighed it and then made some ajustments and we took off and rolled back it was so fun

@SPHSdrumline Cut him some slack , this was recorded in 2006 and he was probably using his cell phone. Back then the few cell phones that had camera/camcorders were very poor quality. And this was shot at night so that didn't help either.
when that happens its scary, when you get to to the bottom after it does rooll back they are like lets let you go again, see if it works this time. :D some people are like F**K THAT.
@Nileyluver97 kingda ka copied this...but that doesnt matter because both are intamin rides. german engineering and im proud of it...you lucky bastards xD you don't got sth like the TÜV...security bla bla...want to come to usa too to ride that beasts^^

@jakeyjakedawg Rollbacks are very unpredictable so there isn't a time that they usually happen. I rode TTD about a year ago and I don't remember any rollbacks that evening. It rained about 9:30p and the ride never reopened after the rain ended.
This is great footage! I've been on the Dragster and seen this happen a couple of times while being in line. Great ride or two if you count the redo up the hill. :-)
Your stupid Burtonrider1000 or whatever. It rolls back because it didn't get up to full speed because of the hydrolics minorly malfunctioning. Not because the operator wants to do a roll back. Haha. Stupidest thing I've heard all day
i never went on this i go to sixflags new england and ive never had a rollback done to me. does anybody know of any rides in sfne that can do a rollback?
This was a really good video considering it was shot going 122 mph. But I have a question.. How are you allowed to bring s camera? I go too sixflags n.e. And they have signs saying any mp3 players cameras and/or cellphones out will result in a 5 year suspension. I know this isn't sixflags but how are you allowed to bring cameras on? What if you lost control of it I mean your going 122 miles per hour.
I can only guess that less power is safer (even if you roll back sometimes) than more power that can potentially derail you. When I think about it logically it would appear a rollback isnt a bad thing really, it just means whoever figured out the math behind the ride was pretty much EXACT (pre- variables) about how much power it would take to get the ride around the track as intended.
@TongueLashin That's true. The EXACT speed required was probably for a certain weight range and with maybe no wind. If that changes at all, that probably causes the rollback.
How often does this thing roll back?? I mean not THAT many people film themselves on the ride yet there is a decent amount of roll back videos on here, and there it has probably rolled back many more times that weren't captured on video. Roll backs looks sweet though and apparently you get a free ride if it happens so whateva.
@Lduke904 it depends on the ride. Kingda Ka rolls back a lot, Top Thrill Dragster doesn't roll back as much because it is more efficient than Kingda Ka. Besides, Top Thrill doesn't roll back that often. mostly in the morning.
@CedarPoint411 Are you kidding? I've been to Great Adventure at least 100 times since Ka opened in '05, and I've only seen 1 rollback. Intamin took what they learned from TTD to help reduce rollbacks on Ka. That's also why Ka hasn't stalled at the top.
And please don't turn this into a SF vs CF debate. It's pointless.
for some reason a rollback is what i am most afraid of on these coasters. im going to six flags and like king da ka and this are the same thing and even though you get another free ride if it rolls back... idk
@pants100UTA there are many different factors that determine if the ride will 'rollback'. on top thrill dragster, if the weight distribution in the train is off, high winds at the top of the 420ft tower, pulley hydraulics not at 100% during launch..these things can lead to a rollback. i got 2 when i was there last year =) the guy that worked there told me that
