In
2004 Hersheypark added the third "rocket coaster" installation
in the world. Their offering is known as Storm Runner. It features
a slightly more complex layout than the previous two built and includes
inversions. Having the luck to have ridden all three rocket coasters,
I feel I can say with little hesitation that Storm Runner was far
and away my favorite.
Short but sweet - leaving you wanting more.
A launch that jets you from 0 to 72 mph in 2 seconds. A great top
hat with a vertical drop. A funky looking "cobra loop".
A barrel roll/snake dive combo that delivers solid airtime beginning
to end. A funky "s" shaped double-up ending that's banked
for maximum thrill. The ride is good fun from start to finish. Check
out the video and capture just an ounce of that fun!
