Five new roller coasters are set to open this summer across the United States. Each ride offers a distinct combination of height, speed, and inversion.
Six Flags Magic Mountain in California debuts a new floorless coaster. The ride reaches 150 feet before plunging riders through five inversions.
Universal Orlando Resort adds a launched coaster at Islands of Adventure. Riders accelerate from zero to 70 miles per hour in three seconds.
Legoland Florida introduces a family-friendly spinning coaster. The track twists around a central tower with gradual drops.
Hersheypark in Pennsylvania unveils a wooden hybrid coaster. Steel supports provide a smoother experience while retaining the classic rattling feel.
Dollywood in Tennessee opens a wing coaster with seats flanking the track. Riders experience the sensation of flying through tight turns and dives.
Each attraction targets different thrill levels. The Legoland coaster suits younger riders, while the Universal launch appeals to adrenaline seekers.
Engineers designed these rides with lap bars and over-the-shoulder restraints. Safety remains the primary focus across all five installations.
Construction took between 9 and 18 months per coaster. All parks confirmed the rides will be operational by early August.
