Arrangement: On this unique & intense coaster, riders are arranged 4 across, 4 seats per car for a total of 32 riders per train.
|
|
Notes: The track layout includes 7 inversions and 2 subterranean trenches, where the first sprays you with water vapor upon entering the cobra roll. Originally the ride was to be themed after the Silver Surfer, another of Marvel Comic's super heroes. This was changed later because the silver track produced so much glare for motorists on nearby I-4 and access roads. When the decision was made to change the track color to green ... the Hulk was born.
|
|
Structure: Traditional Hulk pink & green trains, green track which glows at night. Partially built over water.
|
|
Elements: Weightless roll, Cobra roll, vertical loop, trench, high speed carousel, flat spin, inclined loop, followed by a final flat spin.
|
|
Features: Instead of a conventional lift, the train is accelerated up an tire-propelled incline and exits a 150-foot Gamma Accelerator at 40 mph in 2 seconds. Immediately, riders experience a Zero-G roll and are turned upside down while reaching peak speed. The manufacturer (B&M) traditionally shies away from coasters that are launched, forcing Universal Studios to bring in another team to design a launch system composed of tire wheels up the lift hill cleverly camouflaged as the Gamma Particle Ray Accelerator.

This used to be my all-time favorite coaster until Germany's Expedition G-Force knocked the hulk off the top. Now I'm sure he's green with envy. I rate it 8 's
I rode the Incredible Hulk coaster in October 2004. My brother (19) and I (10) rode it. The best roller coaster I have ever ridden. The best part was when you blasted out of the tunnel. It was a total surprise! That is the best roller coaster in the world {to me} !! Thank you for making it 10 stars!

Just got back from Florida. I really enjoyed the Hulk. The LIM into the 0-G roll was cool. That is one massive cobra roll as well.

The Hulk is awesome!!!!! I rode it 7 times and I wish I could ride it more. Oh
well. I will definately go back again. You can count on it. Who ever designed
and built it, they are geniuses. Thank you so much. It is my favorite coaster
of all time and I have ridden a lot. GOOD WORK!!! I liked going upside down the
most. In all the pictures they took I had a great big smile. : )
