Comet — Attraction in Derry Township

Name
Comet
Description
A comet is an icy, small Solar System body that warms and begins to release gases when passing close to the Sun, a process called outgassing. This produces an extended, gravitationally unbound atmosphere or coma surrounding the nucleus, and sometimes a tail of gas and dust gas blown out from the coma.

Out of all the wooden roller coasters I've been on this is one of my favorites. I always get bummed if I can't ride this when I go to Hersheypark. This coaster was built in the 40's and the amazing thing is how well Hersheypark maintains this thing, you ride it and you'd think it was brand new, it's not super smooth, but smoother than most old wooden roller coasters. Has a fun out and back layout and many moments of airtime! This is also a very good dusk and night ride! I think it's neat that each train has a name. One is Haley and the other is Mork. LONG LIVE COMET

Rode for the first time in June 2022. Waited a lifetime for this ride as I missed out on it when it was in Crystal Beach when I was a small kid. I moved all the way West but was in the area over the summer so finally got to experience the Comet! Ride is everything I had heard it would be. Amazing speed and drops. So many that after 4 times riding it I was starting to feel sick! Six Flags should definitely show The Comet some love and spruce up the ramp up to the ride and treat it to a fresh coat of paint. Hopefully I get back for another ride some day!

This ride is barely younger than my grandparents but runs smoother than a polished rock. The airtime is perfect and the atmosphere is amazing (especially at night). This ride gives a nostalgic feeling and always gets the job done. This ride tends to get long lines throughout the day but it’s totally worth it overall. It’s fun for the whole family and a great thrill in the park. 8/10

Now, this classic 1946 PTC blew me away! As a coaster Enthusiast, I've ridden plenty of more extreme rollercoasters. I hadn't heard anything about comet going in, and I was pleasantly surprised! It has a good drop and pretty good airtime! As more enthusiasts have ridden it, they've had the same general consensus as me: comet is hella underrated. Not only that, but it has comfortable trains, unrestrictive restraints, and is great for families and thrill seekers! Date I say it's the best woodie at Hershey! It's smooth and even has airtime! Lightning racer is smooth but has no airtime and wildcat is rough. But in the end, they're...
