Tonight I reworked an Examiner piece on the coasters of Hersheypark, to reflect their current lineup of coasters that now includes the all new hypercoaster Skyrush. While adding video links to several of the coasters, I came across this one. I've been to Hershey several times and this one I remembered as being very intimidating. It's design is similar to that of Great Adventure's Kingda Ka, only not as high and fast, and with more of a ride. Very cool!
One added bonus to this ride is watching riders from the ground. As they sit and wait in terrifying anticipation for the launch of the coaster, the looks on their faces when it finally launches is worth the price of admission to the park. Remember this if you should ever go. In the meantime, the video below takes you on a front seat ride, as well as a second look at the coaster from afar. Very nice, especially if you're a coaster nut like me!
