Universal Orlando is teasing VelociCoaster
It makes me beyond happy to see this ride have those trains. I was worried it might get stuck with something like on Maverick or I305 (or a variant of), which are atrocious for me. But these trains are polar opposite and extremely comfortable. I also wonder if, like Taron, they don't have seatbelts. That would bump capacity up quite a bit.
This is my most anticipated new ride here in the US for the past few years. I have mentioned it a few times, but Taron is next level and one of the few rides when I hit the break run I literally was breathless. This looks to take that 'package' and amp it up just a little bit.
Can't wait for this one.
The theming elements and way it interacts with the existing midway really ties the island together. They've come a long way from Rip Ride Rockit.

Ugh, what a terrible ride. Hope it sinks, or something. I wish we got the mini-B&M instead (USJ).
Having ridden Hollywood Dream I agree 100%. It's not the greatest B&M hyper coaster by any stretch but it's a ton of fun and fits in with the park really well.

Honestly, things that are better or worse than Rip Ride Rockit feels like a meme about to explode and set the CoasterBuzz world on fire.

(it's even funnier to me that I've never ridden it, I just like to talk crap about inanimate objects - don't get me started on that stapler over there)
Am I the only person here that likes Rip Ride Rockit? I mean, it’s not my favorite, but it’s a fun little ride to me.

Maybe better than Dragon Wagon. Have some standards, man.
So...
Trump > Dragon Wagon (I hate this, but for the sake of argument...)
Rip Ride Rockit > Trump
If Dragon Wagon > RipRideRockit, do we have ourselves a new rock/paper/scissors?
bigboy, no, you are not the only one.
It’s an odd ride, but along with that comes uniqueness. Like a vertical lift followed by a regular drop.
...
Anyway, I love the turnaround and find it thrilling. The surf section on the return is nice, too. And free lockers? What more can you ask for?
Well... maybe a train and restraint that’s comfortable for guys of size...
HRRR > Trump
The vertical lift is the only redeeming quality of the ride. Although if we're talking vertical lifts I will give RRR some credit here:
