I can not express how much I love this coaster. From the moment we were launched to when we stopped at the break run, it was a constant adrenaline rush. I personally wasn't excited because Vekoma coasters had a reputation of being rough. However my torso was tall enough so that the restraint came down to my neck, which eliminated headbanging and made the ride seem so much smoother than it actually was. Even before you hop on the ride, you are already immersed in the experience. There are guitars, recording studios, and records everywhere. Once you are on the ride, you come around into this alleyway and wait to shoot off. You slowly move back and you hear it, the strum of an electric guitar, and the countdown begins. 5... 4... 3... 2... 1... and you are off! I wasn't expecting much from the launch, as it would have possibly been the slowest acceleration on any launch I would have experienced. This completely took me by surprise as it was one of the most powerful launches I have experienced. Plus it seemed to go on forever. We just kept going and going along the straight track until suddenly, the lights zoomed by us and we shot up into the first two inversions. Soon after, the Aerosmith song, "Love in an Elevator" starts to play. I couldn't help but sing along as all the adrenaline was pumping through me, and by sing I mean shout. All of the lights and signs fly by as you travel though Hollywood. We hit the mid-course break run and the song switched to "Walk This Way". We quickly plummeted back down, into a banked turn and a corkscrew, each transition more intense than the last. Alas we come to a stop, jaw-dropped and begging for more. This made not be a one of a kind roller coaster in the sense that there are clones of it out there, but the theming truly is spectacular and gives you a wonderful experience. The ride in Paris of this same name looks even better, but I doubt I'll have a better experience. I am proud to say that this was my first ever Vekoma...
Read moreFantastic ride! Best coaster at the park!
This ride is in the dark but has many glow in the dark set pieces such as the Hollywood sign, Beverly Hills, the roxy, whisky a go go, and various traffic signs that are lit up by blacklights so it’s not entirely in the dark. The ride has three inversions, starting with a sea serpent rollover loop that sends you upside down twice, and a corkscrew near the end of the ride. The ride has an incredible launch that you actually have to ride to see how amazingly fast and forceful it is. Along with a banging soundtrack!
Featuring five different limo trains, each one has a different soundtrack which can be determined by the name on the back license plate
H8TRFFC— Back In The Saddle & Dude (Looks like a lady)
BUHBYE— Young Lust, F.I.N.E., and Love In An Elevator (with a special ending that has the band harmonize to say “love in a roller coaster)
1QKLIMO— Nine Lives
2FAST4U— Sweet Emotion (live) (edit) (from the a little south of sanity album)
UGOBABE— Love In An Elevator & Walk This Way.
You exit the ride into a concert backstage themed gift shop where your photo (taken at the launch to make sure it catches you at your best moment) and other goodies can be bought. Overall a great ride! I highly recommend...
Read moreRock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith has been an absolute thrill ride and a fan-favorite for years, and it’s bittersweet knowing this iconic attraction is closing. This ride perfectly combines high-speed thrills with an unforgettable soundtrack, creating an experience that’s nothing short of electrifying.
From the moment you step into G-Force Records, you’re immersed in the world of Aerosmith, with the pre-show setting the stage for an adrenaline-pumping race through Los Angeles. The launch—going from 0 to 57 mph in just a few seconds—is exhilarating and kicks off a series of inversions, loops, and corkscrews, all set to a custom mix of Aerosmith hits. You can’t help but sing along while the neon-lit “freeway” whizzes by.
The attention to detail, from the theming to the music, makes this ride a standout. It’s not just a coaster; it’s a rock concert on wheels. It’s no wonder why so many Disney fans have cherished it over the years.
Knowing that this beloved ride is closing only adds to the nostalgia and appreciation. It’s hard to say goodbye to a classic that has brought so much joy and excitement to countless guests. If you get a chance to ride it before it closes, don’t miss it—it’s truly a Disney must-do and a piece of theme...
