The POWER of Coaster Launches

Top Thrill Dragster Launch: 🏎⬅️⬅️⬅️⬅️⬅️ Copperhead Strike Launch: 🐌🐌🐌

[@zerogcoasters]

Copperhead Strike actually has a good launch. They increased the acceleration within the past few months so you get a decent gut punch out of the first launch.

Velocicoasters first launch has the best build up. From the roll back to the loud clicks as it counts down. I can’t get enough of that launch tbh

[@Blasulz1234]

My fav launch is Taron by far. it's strong and the most important element, the sound! it's more than half of the experiance and you can hear it before entering the park so the anticipation is there before even thinking about getting in the queue

[@Chaoshero5567]

When you use the back entrance yes, and its realy great

[@k8.4743]

I haven’t been to another theme park minus my home park, Kings Dominion. But honestly, the thrill of Flight of Fear and Backlot Stunt Coaster shooting you off make me happy. These aren’t exactly the type coasters talked about in the video but they still hold a place in my heart.

[@ThemeParkAvenue]

You’re darn right Dragster has the best launch! I haven’t done Kingda Ka, but Dragster is unbelievable.

[@jdmagic]

Eh, Ka is more intense in my opinion. Doesn't mean dragster isn't the better ride, but Ka is still great and underrated in my opinion

[@MoneyMakeOnlineEasy]

Maxx Force's launch is better than any of the accelerator launches and thts hard to beat

[@ax8te]

@@MoneyMakeOnlineEasy maxx force is nothing compared to things like… uh, do dodonpa

[@MoneyMakeOnlineEasy]

@@ax8te lol Do Dodonpa is a dream for sure. I was talkin about in the US, even then Maxx Force might be the most intense accel after Do?

[@CoastinWithMax]

6:29 The ride next to Rita actually has a launch at the end.

[@ThemeParkAvenue]

This is the first “The Power Of” that discusses physical power.

[@davidhahner]

Watching this after just riding Storm Runner! The acceleration is nuts and the presentation is simple but extremely effective! NOW GET READY HERE WE GO!!!

[@brandenp1187]

Storm Runner’s my fav. Short but worth it

[@bernn8]

Lightning rods launch is so good it launches you while a car’s engine is reving it sounds so good

[@anza2]

launches are actually goated

[@TripleTSingt]

I love going on Taron Row 1 with friends who haven't experienced it before. ^^

[@zyuukii]

One thing that makes coastoons videos a banger is the music.. it’s so overlooked but it’s what gives a video that classic coastoon feel.. and the animations.

3:58 What about the Fastest Rollercoaster in the World Formula Rossa Also fun fact this ride was also made by Intamin

[@noahdmay]

With Thunderbird being the only launched coaster I've ridden, I'm so looking forward to my Enthusiast trip in 2022 where I will be going to Dollywood, Busch Gardens Tampa, and Islands of Adventure! This video really let me see how forceful these launches are, and now I'm looking forward to riding them even more! Great video.

[@zyuukii]

Oh yeah ur going to have a great time all 10/10 parks

[@tomasparsons3386]

Shocked that this comment is the first to bring up Thunderbird... I’ve ridden a few of the rides mentioned in the video, and Thunderbird shocked me with the launch. Maybe it’s because it’s a wing coaster, but it felt like I had been shot out of a slingshot

[@noahdmay]

@@tomasparsons3386 Very true, it only reaches around 60 mph but feels much more powerful!

[@stormingcoasters]

Rock 'n' Roller Coaster is definitely the most intense for me, I loved it!

[@laytonamous]

My favorite ride ever!

[@PancakeTheKat]

Oh yeah, between going on hulk and this, rock n’ rollercoaster is the superior one.

[@technoandrew]

Most powerful launch I’ve done is Stealth (0-80 in 1.8s). The most theatrical one though is probably those at Disneyland Paris; either Rockin’ Roller Coaster or Space Mountain (From the Earth to the Moon).

[@deadaccount2048]

I remember telling my pussy ass self I was gonna ride stealth (I only did The walking dead and the labrinth maze that day and the walking dead was MY FIRST EVER COSSTER) And I was in the middle of the queue and i was just watching that thing blast off every time, the queue alone gave me a adrenaline rush XD And I chickened out :p

[@deadaccount2048]

PLUS that day the countdown was off (it would go 321 GO and then u wait like 2 years before blasting off) HELL NAW thats just cruel knowing your gonna go any second just waiting (the anticipation is prob scarier than the launch)

[@kool_aad]

I personally really like Xcelerator's launch. The raw acceleration get me everytime. (Keep in mind I haven't ridden that launch coasters.)

[@coasterthoosie4023]

this is truly the best coaster content. Coaster studios and etr aren't even CLOSE!

[@223rockmaster]

This video is making me super pumped. I've never been on a launched coaster before. My boyfriend and I are going to ride Phobia Phear (Skyrocket 2) at Lake Compounce and I can not wait.

[@landonasty6479]

My favorite launch that I have experienced was the first launch on Velocicoaster, the buildup is awesome and you hear the raptors as you whip out of the station. Although I'm sure if I were able to ride dragster it would probably top it,

[@goofygooberohio9983]

the fact that i’m a (new) enthusiast and have ridden tons of rides, I HAVE NEVER BEEN ON A LAUNCHED COASTER!!! expect for hulk

[@rixrobin]

People mock copperhead strikes launch, but its not meant to powerful, its meant to be enough to give you insane hang time on that first loop which I personally love. There is a stronger launch later in the ride but everyone just talks about that first one.

[@jazztheory]

So far I've only been on 3 launch coasters, all of them being at six flags magic mountain, but out of all of those launches, the second launch on west coast racers on the white side is my most favorite, you really feel it kick in and even though you already have a good speed going into the launch it gets even better and then you fly into that corkscrew which for the speed you gain you get a good amount of hangtime, but at night it's even crazier, 2 of my 5 rides I've gotten on west coast racers have been at night and i enjoy it way more than in day

[@IndyCoasterCreator]

Wickeds launch is honestly very slow, but the spectacle of being launched 90 degrees upwards makes it one of the most insane launches of any coaster I’ve ridden. It really is a strange feeling being launched 90 degrees upward and the airtime over the top hat because of the launch makes it a seriously underrated element.

[@lessardo87]

the sound of Intamin lsm launches mixed with the forces makes it my favourite type of element

[@scraps4338]

My favorite launch coaster is storm runner and is so underrated as it is so fun and the cobra loop is awesome and so unique and I can never forget the “ready here we go!” Before you launch

[@panzerofthelake7661]

One launch to talk about is that of formula rossa, it doesn’t start with anything crazy but the longer the launch goes on the faster it accelerates, and the launch feels like it goes on forever, which makes sense as it’s the fastest coaster in the world, definitely top tier

[@AmusementArchitect]

Storm Runner Is the BEST! Lovin the thumbnail!

[@youcanttieyourshoes472]

sad u didnt do space mountain cuz space mountain launch is rlly awesome

[@anthonyleadley3]

One launch that is very underrated is Maxx Force’s at Six Flags Great America. It’s very sudden and it’s actually very forceful, I grey out on it every ride.

[@fiddlegang3354]

What about volcano the blast coaster

[@Sunburst_YT]

Rockin roller coaster has an awesome launch, especially with Steven Tyler counting down from 5 with the bands music!

[@CoasterRoaster]

I love a good buildup to a launch, but I also really like how on Maxx Force, there's nothing happening, so you have no idea when you're going to launch. That feeling of silently waiting for the most powerful launch in the western hemisphere is surreal

[@thestoopid]

Holy crap! You blew up so quickly! Keep up the good work!

[@quadam19]

YES ANOTHER UPLOAD YOUR VIDS ARE THUSIE GOLD

[@skinnyshelby4676]

As someone whose been on wicked, it is so intense, and it looks slow over the top, but when I rode it rocketed over the top. Seriously feels like blast off

[@CivilianSatellite]

My favorite launch is easily Formula Rossa's. It does the same thing as Kingda Ka where the launch is in stages, and that second kick all the way up to its top speed took my breath away. After our first ride in the front seat, we had no interest in riding it in any other row.

[@generalguy64x]

If you want on-ride build up, nothing tops Storm Runner for me. "Now get ready, here we go!" Is burned into my mind.

[@christiecakes014]

I've been on it easily over a dozen times and I still get butterflies in my stomach right before the launch. The set up is so good!

[@Sam_Richins]

As someone that has ridden Wicked 20 times in a row without getting off, that launch is gnarly! You're pressed into your seat on the way up, then the lap restraint on the way down just makes you forget you're safe. Plus, the forces as you crest the hill are crazy! Going straight up to straight down that fast is so fun!

[@laurenarlauskas]

I LOVE THIS CHANNEL

[@notsospoopybob]

Taron and stealth's launches take it for me. The raw strength of stealth's and the power and sound of taron's make it a no brainer for me

[@CooperE.]

Congrats on the channel growth. I think I subbed at like 3k, and now you are close to 25k. Keep it up.

[@gstakktransport5227]

honestly, red force at ferrari land's launch is really underrated, it's a rolling launch, it has that anticipation with lights before you start rolling so you feel that "oh shit here we go", and you start feeling like you're out of control halfway down the track

[@coasterknowledge1982]

Storm runner is slept on. Plus the launch is right along the mid way for everyone to watch. Ik so many people who try and watch there friends on the launch

[@DragonFruitYTUK]

Tysm for putting rita from alton because ive never been on any other launch

[@jarmoliebrand2005]

RIP Do-Dodonpa

[@liamcollinson5695]

My favourite launch coaster would probably be hyper space mountain at Disneyland Paris it's easily one Disneys most intense rides. The way it launches up the tunnel on the roof which looks like a cannon then just drops into darkness is amazing. It took me by surprise my first time because I found all the other roller coasters a bit tame

[@Metabohai]

Rock n Roller coaster in paris (RIP) had the best launch imo. The audio design almost complete darkness and anticipation with sounds left and right that are swelling the whole station becoming dark and then steven tyler counting down was mindblowing. I wish the florida one would have gotten demolished over the paris one. Im glad I rode it as many times as I did before it got destroyed. Hopefully Iron man can keep some of that magic.

[@Blauwedakpan]

The most underrated launch in the world is the first launch of ride to happiness because it’s pretty forceful and you spin while you launch

[@jg-7780]

After being on both Maxx Force and Ka, I think I prefer Maxx Force just a bit. While Ka’s lasts forever, the absolutely bonkers acceleration of Maxx Force was crazy, instantly pinning my head and shoulders to the seat.

[@Quack0017]

Lagoon is my home park and I started having a nerd out when he talked about wicked

Really love the fact you’re so in tune with hip hop and you’re a coaster enthusiast. Cuz that into was nice. (PS) I’m from the hood (JCNJ) , and I love coasters. We (enthusiasts) are everywhere 👌🏾

[@paulzaw26]

I agree If I had to choose......I would say launches are the sickest way to start a coaster. I love them all regardless, but launches are so much more intense to me then a lift hill.

[@Kittenmarines]

I'm a total ride weenie, but my friends made me get on the Maverick and I loved it. Making me reevaluate my fears and look at more rides now...

[@VECTOR_Coasters]

b&m have 3 launches on coasters hulk, decepticoaster and thunder bird

[@jg-7780]

One thing I appreciate that wasn’t mentioned in this vid is when coasters launch you straight out of the station. No time for anticipation as you roll out the station, you just go.

[@somethingdignified8178]

You did Storm Runner dirty with this video. It's the most powerful launch in North America!

[@DaanBruins]

I've ridden Xpress: Platform 13 at Walibi Holland, which is a near clone of Rock 'n' Rollercoaster, and I recommend you watching an onride of that thing. The launch is really a gutpunch, especially combined with the tunnel and the light- and sound effects.

[@KriKri_]

Coastoons : They dont put launches at the end Th13teen : hold my tires

[@Candycane-Foxy-YT]

Intamins least Reliable I Think Is Hagrids Their Most Reliable Coaster is VelociCoaster Expecially if there was a rollback after 2 minutes of being stopped on the middle track the ride will launch you backwards then Forwards over the top hat to finish the ride.

[@antonytsai6611]

Icons launch is underrated it has some deceptive force I got pinned to my seat quite suddenly and stealth is just a punch in the face

[@colinvennemann3110]

the space mountain in florida is alright but the one in paris with the launch is insane. i loved the ride and was continuously my number one go get to

You need to go to Cali for sfmm and knotts. Xcelerator has a crazy launch

[@Verdelite]

how the heck are you putting all the weak lsm over the hydraulic? tmnt shellraiser? what about xelerator? maxx force? like you forgot so much

[@cedarflags]

As someone who has ridden maxx force, it’s hard to describe. I like dragsters more because once you can comprehend MF’s launch, it’s over

[@otterrific7595]

That vertical launch on Wicked is incredibly fun. It’s a must-experience for launch fans.

[@zyuukii]

Launches are my favorite element and not because of the forces but because of the sense of speed it just gives me more adrenaline than anything else

[@CanaanZhou2002]

Tron in Shanghai Disneyland, China, has an AMAZING launch. Definitely check that out if you ever visit there.

[@DuecePiece]

I may be one of the few that loves Flight Of Fears launch. Something about that magnetic launch, it's almost as though you feel it going thru your body- with that loud electric magnet sound, always gets the blood pumping!

[@carsonholley136]

That launch is soooo good. Plus every time I have went on it the ride op gave NO warning, so its completely unexpected

[@DuecePiece]

@@carsonholley136 oh yeah- the ops play into it big time! They either do that or do a fake "countdown". I know not to trust them at all and just expect a launch immediately! 😂

[@bandoballerina]

“Everyone knows you’re about to launch” ha, my pop-pop rode Hulk with me and he had literally no clue that we were about to launch and it totally caught him off guard 😂😂

[@PointGo_]

Stealth at Thorpe Park has a crazy launch, 0-80 in 1.9 seconds. It is the most intense element I've ever ridden and I dont think anything will beat that any time soon.

[@ollie32354]

the only launch coaster ive ridden is stealth, i cant even describe it because i was focusing on staying alive, it literally took my breath away so i couldnt scream.

[@jojo_hendriks]

Haven’t done TMNT/Takabisha yet but I can safely say that Gerstlauer is the king of LSM launches. They are Almost always rolling launches and they are soooo power. Anubis and especially Novgorod are just ridiculous, and the launch track is so short. TTD still has my fav launch tho.

[@villek3722]

Dont forget Junker and Karacho

[@archiebaxendale-skill1897]

[@skyye3600]

Maverick at night tho... Holy. Couldn't see the end of the tunnel so the snap after the tunnel launch took me by surprise

[@TedsCoasterChannel]

Gerstlauer has some great launches. Probably even greater than Intamin, although i really adore Taron‘s launches. But the launch on Fluch von Novgorod is absolutely mental. It’s in complete darkness and you don’t expect it at all. And when you realize what happens it is already over.

[@Chaoshero5567]

Yeah, the launch also has sole fucking streanght to it, its so cool
