Season pass holder here. What makes Hersheypark great is that there is no redundancy at all in their lineup. Every ride is unique in terms of its theming, elements and ride experience. You can rank them, but it is really the amazing diverse collection that makes the park. By the way, there is also a water coaster, Breakers Edge, that is a great ride during the summer.
Everything is on point. I have WC first. Lighting racer was so rough this past July. Reminded me of the old wildcat. Skyrush is an airtime machine ! Just an awesome ride.
Hersheypark is my home park. Wildcat's Revenge is easily my favorite at the park. Skyrush comes in right behind it. Great Bear is my third favorite. It has gotten more intense as she has aged.
My personal rankings, as well as their total rank out of my 64 credits. 1. Wildcat's Revenge (2) 2. Fahrenheit (4) 3. Skyrush (6) 4. Candymonium (9) 5. Stormrunner (13) 6. Great Bear (23) 7. Lightning Racer (31) 8. Superdooperlooper (39) 9. Comet (40)
Really hope I can get a chance to visit this park in 25. If, for whatever reason, TT2 and Sirens Curse are not both operating at the end of August, then I will be visiting Hershey instead. Really looks like a great park. The only bad thing I have ever heard from enthusiasts is that the operations are terrible.
"Terrible" is an exaggeration. The ops on Wildcat's Revenge are quite good, they definitely put their best people there. The others range from okay to bad. The only ones I think were actually bad last year were Candymonium and Comet. The others I thought were fine. I have season passes and went about 10 times last year.
The Fahrenheit line moves terribly slow, but not because the ops are so bad. The big problem there is that each train only holds 12 people. It's the same problem Laff Trakk has, just awful capacity.
SkyRush #1 is psychotic. I WAS gonna like this video. Also, Hersheypark is my home park and no WAY is it's top 4 better than Kings Island or Cedar Point.
I like your channel, I don't always agree with rankings that you give. In this case I'm not sure that I disagree with anything. I would be pretty darn close if I ranked the coasters here.
1. Wildcat's Revenge 2. Stormrunner 3. Candymonium 4. Skyrush 5. Fahrenheit 6. Great Bear Skyrush could be swapped for 5th or 6th. Great ride, but there's only a few great elements and a whole lotta duds, and the new restraints are just as bad as the original, clamping down WAY too hard throughout the ride. Even sitting in the best seat (back left), the ride is rough as hell and has minimal airtime because the new restraints will have you smashed and pinned into your seat by the time you hit the bottom of the first drop. One of, if not the most overrated coasters in the world. That being said, it's still a good coaster lol
100% agree. It’s #4 for me, after Wildcats Revenge, Candy, and Storm Runner. Hell some days I even enjoy Fahrenheit more. Skyrush’s drop and first two airtime hills are amazing. After that it does a whole lot of nothing and is over so fast.
I love intense coasters but this one is so fast and intense that like you said after the first drop and first two airtime hills it is forgettable. I also rank Candymonium much higher on my list than most people. I love the incredible floater airtime you get on it. I counted 23 seconds once where I wasn’t touching the seat. I rank Great Bear in my top three B&M inverts as well.
There is no universe in which Skyrush is better than Wildcat’s Revenge. After the drop and first two airtime hills, Skyrush does nothing. Wildcat’s revenge keeps the intensity and thrills going for double the time and has many more elements.
As a coaster enthusiast, by next most important coaster park I need to visit that I've not yet visited would have to be Holiday World, Universal Florida, Busch Gardens Tampa and Hershey Park. But you lost me at "trailblazer". Your family decisions are personal and subjective, but if any coaster "plants a seed" to have not only a kid but another kid, nay "that MY wife and I NEED to have a second child, since one of us had to ride alone, while the other got to sit next to Mason" then you've lost most of the 2025 audience who's not at least a millionaire. This begs a very important question: Are you giving advice or are you just flexing? Unless you're a billionaire; how do you think climate change will affect your children? Why did you bring up how ANY coaster, (let alone an insignificant one) was the reason to have a kid unless you're flexing? There are plenty of people less poor than me that don't have kids because even they can't afford it, and even if they could, they're sentencing kids to the worst deaths possible due to global warming. Too many people assume that having kids is just their birthright, or worse: that there's something wrong about not having kids. But I'll take it as a compliment to how young you think I am; that I ought to "try getting married and having a family" as though I was Al Pacino: worlds oldest famous dad. Also: Please stop wishing people a "blessed day." To anyone not brainwashed into believing in any god mankind imagined to explain a world they didn't understand: wishing someone a "blessed day" comes across as a magical enchantment, no different from saying "Hocus Pocus"; "Abracadabra"; or my favourite being "A La Peanut butter Sandwiches!"; the magical enchantment utilized by The Amazing Mumford; the OG Sesame Street Magician operated and voiced by the late great Jerry Nelson, most famous for operating and voicing the Count von Count muppet. I know that you generally mean well in your heart (no, that's just an organ that pumps blood, the organ we call the "heart" has been appropriated to mean something it's not; a gut feeling, but I digress) and soul (that's even worse than the word heart; there is no evidence for a soul, unless the soul is a word that denotes anything that is bad for us we get pleasure from, like high fructose corn syrup, too much candy, too much food or a fentanyl/crystal meth injection into the jugular or crapping out kids for the most petty and selfish reasons, as though kids are supposed to be some sort of fashion accessory.) but there's no reason to conflate your passion for coasters and gift for being informative about them with flexing, unless flexing was part of your plan all along. Please understand: I know that you're generally coming from a good place, but It's cringe to anyone not already brainwashed into believing in magical enchantments. It's wonderful you're a success at making a living putting out UA-cam about content you're obsessed about; I enjoy it as I find it helpful and entertaining. But when you start using your good fortune to flex and promote your lifestyle choices that are no longer an affordable option for most people, then it makes you look like you're just flexing rather than being entertaining and informative. This is your channel; what you post is your decision. Just realize how it comes across in this day and age of increasing inflation, poverty, homelessness and the widening discrepancy between the haves and the have nots. Also: Happy new year again, my friend.

Yeah that water coaster looks great! Thanks for watching!
This is very close to my list, this is a great tier list
I appreciate it! Hp is amazing
Hershey Park is my favorite park! I haven’t been able to ride wild cats revenge yet but sky rush is my favorite!
Hopefully you can this year!
Great video as always brother!
💯 Really enjoy these!
Everything is on point. I have WC first. Lighting racer was so rough this past July. Reminded me of the old wildcat. Skyrush is an airtime machine ! Just an awesome ride.
Thank you for watching! Sky Rush is insane
Love the rankings! I have WR over Skyrush and Jolly Rancher over Laugh Trak. Other than that, our rankings are exactly the same!
I love Storm Runner. Its my fav coaster in the park atm. Having been to the park in like 8 years. Glad i got to wild wildcat before it closed
Good you can make it back soon!
@@KeepRidinCoasters going this year. Visiting 12 parks in 8 days
I would flip flop #1 and #2 but otherwise absolutely no notes, the rankings are perfect 🙌
It’s so hard to rank
Agreed. So grateful I that get to live within 3 hours of this absolutely magical park 🙌
Great combination, Hershey's tasty chocolate 🍫 & great coasters! 👍 😃
Hersheypark is my home park. Wildcat's Revenge is easily my favorite at the park. Skyrush comes in right behind it. Great Bear is my third favorite. It has gotten more intense as she has aged.
When you have all the delicious chocolate 🍫 and a collection of awesome roller coasters 🎢, HersheyPark is indeed the sweetest place on Earth!
I know, right?!
OK. Nice. I say the new coaster that accompanies Candymonium in Chocolatetown in '26, edges its way into the top five!
First 2024 ride on skyrush was disappointing but leaning forward on subsequent rides redeemed it

Also watch out for Fahrenheit too as I noticed pretty slow operations with the ride

Hershey park has the best top 6 anywhere!
SkyRush #1 is psychotic. I WAS gonna like this video. Also, Hersheypark is my home park and no WAY is it's top 4 better than Kings Island or Cedar Point.
Just kidding...I liked the video. Still a crazy take though. Obviously, Wildcats is #1
lol thank you my friend

Thank you Greg! I appreciate you!
Wildcat takes the number 1 spot for us!!!
U might not see this but I agree skyrush is the best coaster. That first airtime hill on the wing seat feels like it’s js trying to RIP me in half
💚
Do you ship to Universal Endless summer resort?
Ship? What you mean
@KeepRidinCoasters I mean would you post a T-shirt to to the UK? As we have left dockside.
1. Wildcat's Revenge
2. Stormrunner
3. Candymonium
4. Skyrush
5. Fahrenheit
6. Great Bear
Skyrush could be swapped for 5th or 6th.

One of, if not the most overrated coasters in the world. That being said, it's still a good coaster lol
Sky Rush is incredibly overrated in my opinion. I put it at 3-4 in the park.
Some people think it’s underrated but place it lower than that lol
It dropped for me this year. Old restraints were 100% my preference.
100% agree. It’s #4 for me, after Wildcats Revenge, Candy, and Storm Runner. Hell some days I even enjoy Fahrenheit more. Skyrush’s drop and first two airtime hills are amazing. After that it does a whole lot of nothing and is over so fast.

@@nesmanmain0001 THANK YOU! The airtime was more refined, and the laterals are gone now!

Yea trailblazer was too low
Wild Mouse is by FAR the worst.
