Music Video Rides - Universal Studios Rip, Ride, Rockit Coaster

A new ride coming to Universal Studios Orlando in 2009 will feature enough digital technology to appeal directly to what Universal Orlando officials refer to as the “YouTube culture.” Patrons will be able to personalize their ride by choosing their own tunes and creating a music video that can be uploaded for all to see.

The high-tech roller coaster will be full of lights, music, loops, twists and turns—and includes a quick trip over the heads of people walking through the nearby CityWalk entertainment district. The Rip, Ride, Rockit coaster will rise 167 feet into the air and feature numerous loops and corkscrew turns.
