Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit at Universal Studios Orlando

This is the Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit roller coaster at Universal Studios in Orlando, FL. This was built and designed by Maurer Sohne and it's the largest coaster they've ever built. This coaster is one of the most unique coasters ever built. To start out, there's the world's tallest vertical lift at 167ft tall, then it drops you right into the worlds first non inverting loop, then a run through the trim brakes and into the Treble Cleff turn around which runs through a wall and around a facade of the Gugenhiem Museum. Then another run through a trim brake and then riders dive down and through the bottom half of the non inverting loop back around the station and over the que in the Crowd Surfing element. Then up through another trim brake, then a dive down along the ground and into the banked loop at the other end by the Blue Man Group entrance. That leads to yet another run through a trim brake then dive down through a small bunny hop and into the final station brakes. What makes this ride unique is that it's designed to run with seven two car trains that hold six people per car and 12 riders per train. On top of all that, Riders can select their own on-ride music with litterally hundreds of music selection available from all genres, except classical/orchestral music. The trains themselves are also light up in LED lights which will make for some unique and colorful night shots. Once you're done, you can edit your own on-ride video as there are cameras all over this ride.
Here are the Stats,
Height: 167ft/50.9m
Length: 3832ft/1167.9m
Speed: 65mph/104.6kph
World's first non inverting loop: 123ft/37.49m wide, 136ft/41.45m tall

So scary, the vertical lift is crazy plus the bar didnt seem that safe

[woodencoasterfan]

@aattack619 It's completely safe and there's no way you can slip out.

Im going there in February! Can anyone tell me whether is it scary and whether the lapbar is secure enough? I heard that it's 17th storeys high but it doesnt seem that high from this video. Advice please as i'm travelling from Asia all the way to Orlando n wld really wanna try this :)

[woodencoasterfan]

@shadowfaith91 Its really not that bad of a coaster. I find that the vertical lift hill scares people the most. Yes, the lap bars are secure, otherwise our safety standards wouldn't allow the ride to opperate. Also what really makes the ride unique is the ability to choose the music you want to listen to while you ride, then you can buy a video of yourself on the ride with the music you selected for the ride. I also have a day and night off ride video of this coaster of my YouTube channel

[woodencoasterfan]

@disconatasha Yep, I've actually ridden this many times. You should watch my day & night video of this ride. It's pretty spectacular at night with all the LED lights on each train.
