SKY Coaster Ride at Royal Gorge, Colorado USA

03 July 2010, The Royal Rush Skycoaster is the most awesome adrenaline rush in the state of Colorado. Imagine a free-fall tower sweeping you 50 mph to hang momentarily over 1,200 feet above the Arkansas River, which looks like a tiny blue line far, far below. The Royal Rush Skycoaster is one of only 87 in the world, and was recently named the scariest Skycoaster of them all. There's no better way to add a little adventure to your Colorado vacation!
