Storm Runner, Hersheypark

The first coaster to use inversions and a hydraulic launch was Storm Runner. Even if it no longer sets records, Storm Runner nevertheless provides tremendous thrills. Riders are launched from zero to 72 mph (116 km/h) in under two seconds as it soars to a height of 169 feet (52 m). A top hat element, three inversions, a dual loading station, and a magnetic brake mechanism are all included in Storm Runner. It was also planned to interact with the Trailblazer, the Monorail, and the Dry Gulch Railroad at Hersheypark. The first accelerator coaster featuring over-the-shoulder restraints and a dual loading station with switch tracks is Storm Runner. Additionally, Kanonen at Liseberg was the second accelerator coaster to incorporate inversions after this one.

The Trailblazer, Dry Gulch Railroad, and Hersheypark Monorail are three attractions that are close to being missed by the track. The train travels through the switch track and onto the launch track as it departs the station. The pounding of a heart is audible as the train approaches its destination.
