Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit Review

Universal Studios, Orlando

Eagerly awaited unique interactive roller coaster the Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit opened August 2009. Universal Orlando claims their latest attraction to be the most technologically advanced roller coaster in the world.

Choose your song and record your own music video (which you can edit and buy at end of ride) whilst riding the Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit. Use a personal touch pad located in the lap bar to select your track, over 30 song choices ranging from rock, pop, country, punk and club.

Vertical lift hill 167ft tall will be the tallest in Orlando area followed by vertical loops, sideways loops, crowd surfer and 540 degree helix. Features worlds first non-inverted loop which will keep riders upright at the top of the loop. Top speed 65mph, 3 minutes of first-ever thrills, a must for thrill seekers.

I love coasters but was daunted by the thought of the 16 second climb up the vertical lift hill but after one ride I was addicted. The first drop was followed by a series of different loops and twists and the coaster smoothly rocked along the track. I found the Rip Ride Rockit not as aggressive a ride as The Hulk and Dueling Dragons but this coaster is lots of fun especially front row.
