Nitro

Experience the Intensity of a Hypercoaster

This over-the-top coaster goes all out in speed, height and airtime, officially classifying it as a Hypercoaster. This intense breed of thrill is known for the most heart-pounding rides, and Nitro is no exception.

Get ready to fly as your safety restraint lowers and you take off toward a 233-foot hill. Once you reach the top, you’ll catch a glimpse of Philadelphia, but don’t get too comfortable because you’re about to fly down a 215-foot drop.


With plenty of adrenaline and airtime opportunity, this ride will have you defying gravity.

You’ll race through the sky at 80 mph and zoom into a second hill at 181 feet high. And when you plummet down, you’ll lift off your seat in sheer weightlessness before slamming into a tight U-turn, but there’s no turning back now.

You’ll be flying at 80 mph as you zoom into the second hill, up yet another 181 feet high over the treetops, and down so fast you’ll lift right out of your seat in pure weightlessness. But don’t get too used to it, because you’re about to blast into the totally original hammerhead U-turn, a paralyzing swift reversal.

You’ll blast into impossible horizontal loops, a 540° helix spiral and finish off with a series of camelback hills. With a whole mile of track, the Nitro hypercoaster is definitely worth the hype.
