The Ride
In 1999 the sweetest place on earth decided to add a kick to their coaster packed park. Hershey Park wanted an inverted steel coaster that could fit in the limited space that they had in their park. The new ride was chosen to be by the Coal Cracker Log Flume and The Super Dooper Looper designed by Anton Swartscough of Germany. The executives at Hershey Park turned to B&M to design the coaster. The park wanted the ride open for the beginning of the season for it's 94th season.

The Experience
The coaster starts out by going up it's lift that seems small for the ride at hand. Then it drops down a 124 foot helix first drop. It continues through a vertical loop and a half loop turn around. It goes through an inline twister right above the footpaths below. It make a steep dive towards the water nearly missing the SuperDooper Looper, and then does one more inline twister and hits the brakes. This ride was a hit for the season and will continue to be for years.
