I think Hersheypark is one of the best parks and Pain Rush is the worst coaster I have ever experienced. <br />Depending on where you sit or the phase of the moon, Sky Rush can be tolerable or it can be unbearable. Three years I tried to reconcile with this coaster. Never again.

That is good and bad. Being whipped over the top of the lift hill was thee closest experience to a near death experience in my entire life.

My companion and I found this coaster exhiliratingly terrifying, in a class totally separate from every other coaster at Hershey, and for all the reasons outlined here.

If not, you ascend so fast, you very easily can lose nerve to raise them up before peaking the crest. With hands up, you also alleviate most of the pressure on your thighs as the lap restraint will get tighter throughout the ride from the very pressure you putMax Riderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07154449705246096542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5770478267075741107.post-48650872133760427362013-06-05T19:43:15.061+01:002013-06-05T19:43:15.061+01:00Nice article!

The park was almost "empty" (kids field trips and other like myself, trying to get in a vacation and park experience, that allows maximum ride time)Walked straight to Sky Rush, wait times 15-30 minutes. I really didn't know what to think after riding and rode a second time, but by then the crowd had decided that that wasSeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18229811471172736091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5770478267075741107.post-52499032880618919122013-05-30T06:52:35.818+01:002013-05-30T06:52:35.818+01:00This article is AWESOME.

Did Hershey Park know what they were getting? Honestly, at first I hated it, but precisely because it scared the crap out of me, which no coaster has ever been able to do since I was eleven. It made me feel like a pansy.

I have been going to Hersheypark for 10 years. It has tons of live entertainment, an aqua theater, roving bands and several low and moderate speed coasters. It has a few thrill rides which are awesome like Skyrush. Skyrush and I305 are the most intense rides ever. I just rode Skyrush today and they fixed the seat problem.

I really want to ride this beast before major changes are done, like I did with Intimidator 305 (which when originally opened was crossing the border of not being re-rideable) but it may not be possible.<br /><br />Thanks for you input and love to hear from enthusiasts across the pond.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03068983179434577896noreply@blogger.com
