Hersheypark WILDCAT’S REVENGE - On Ride POV - New 2023 Roller Coaster
FRONT POV on ride video. Now Open: Wildcat’s Revenge! Hersheypark new for 2023 is an all new RMC-manufactured roller coaster. The hybrid's highly-anticipated debut comes 100 years after the original Wild Cat coaster opened at the Park in 1923.
The 2-minute and 36-second experience begins as riders climb a 140-foot hill, plunge into an 82-degree drop and hit a maximum speed of 62 miles per hour along 3,510 feet of red track on a black steel and wood structure.
Wildcat’s Revenge combines the best of wood and steel by adding a new steel track with unique elements to the wooden framework for a one-of-a-kind thrilling ride experience found only at Hersheypark.

Just at Hersheypark yesterday and this ride blew all of us away! The urgency, speed, twists and turns, and smoothness is just breathtaking!!! This is right up there with velosicoaster!!
You can’t tell from the video, this ride is CRAZY smooth. Likely the smoothest coaster in the park.

I was there opening weekend for Wildcat, and I would argue it's actually one of the best coasters in the United States. I've been on every single RMC in the United States with the exception of Iron Gwazi, and I have never been on a roller coaster that maintains this level of intensity for the entire ride. Sure there are other rides with parts that exceed the intensity of Wildcat (Kinda Ka's launch, Tatsu's diving loop, the first 1/4 of X2 at SFMM), but none of the other ones maintain it for even a fraction of the time Wildcat does. I can count on one hand the number of coasters that actually get more intense after the midway brake run, and this is one of them! One of the most awesome and gnarly coasters in America, were lucky to have rides like that so close to us, because usually you have to drive to a Six Flags to get coasters this intense...

I've said it before and will say it again, RMC is the best roller coaster company there is currently (in my opinion) Never thought I would ever be saying that with how much I adore Intamin and B&M, but here we are! Just the most brilliant and innovative coaster company you can imagine, and it's a win-win for everyone since now parks have the option of refurbishing some of their old woodies that are falling apart, and turn them into a world class ride that people will come from everywhere to try out, and it costs the park way less then actually building a new coaster! Who wouldn't love RMC? All of their clients, along with all the guests who eventually ride it have to universally adore them. Talk about a dream job working for them currently... I would give literally anything to be a part of a team like that

I road this coaster on July 4, 2023 with my 11 year old son. What a time we had! I’m not one for coasters (the lines or the suspense). I stepped out of my comfort zone for sure! We highly recommend Wildcat’s Revenge. I enjoyed it so much that I rode it a second time with my wife.

This ride kicks your a$$ but in a good way the 2nd half of the ride un my opinion picks up speed and the fact that it has no mid break run makes this ride a beast
I grew up going to Hershey Park yearly and every year, we would end the day by torturing ourselves on Wildcat, by the time I was about 15, it was so painful to ride that I would just opt out. It makes me so happy to see it with the RMC treatment
This ride looks incredible.

Was wondering how you hold on correctly. I just got on and I didn’t enjoy it because of how the new lap bar is and how there’s a knee brace with it. Do I lean forward and hold on to the bar? Or do I lean back? The two thumb bars are far down so I was confused

@@sugarcookiekaci0126 I just leaned forward a bit and held on to the two handle bars on the sides of the lap bar right above the shin guards. You can also hold onto the little rope thingy that’s attached to the restraint. There’s really no correct way, just find any place you can hold somewhat comfortably and pray lol

It is, by far. At least in my opinion, Skyrush is heavily overrated. The initial fast lift is cool and fun, but after that it’s a boringly generic coaster. It’s shaky too, almost uncomfortably so.

I think Kings Island needs to stop what they’re doing and build something like this asap (like a Son of Beast reboot). This is the kind of coaster they’re missing in their lineup.
My favorite part is the seal brakes
Looks like a smooth ride
Rode this past week and it was really smooth yhe entire ride is excellent invits transitions but then i rode WITH UCKED CYCLONE the next day and wildcat is a little tamer and not as good . I put it above twisted timbers but below every other rmc ive ridden

Don't tell me that, I didn't ride it yet. I hate the drops, but love the rest. We go constantly but I can't make myself get on it yet because of the drop. I hate the feeling of going over the hill and down, but the rest looks so fun. I just forced myself to ride Candymonium for the first time this week after walking past it for two years, and I had to keep my eyes closed most of the ride to get through it! But I could ride the Great Bear for hours!

Unfortunate. Seems like it happens all too often with this manufacturer. I’m sure Hershey is doing everything they can and it’ll be back in a few days :(
It is a nice new ride but I preferred the old standard wood version. This first drop is not as thrilling as the old version of this ride. I know a lot of people prefer the RMC tracks and tricks they can do with it. It just takes away that sway and out of control you felt on the wooden version.

I think Wildcat's Revenge is a fantastic ride that will take your breath away and I'm sure most of the GP does too. However, I was also sad to see Wildcat go last year. I didn't think it deserved the hate it got. It wasn't perfect but it wasn't as bad as some of the other terrible wooden coasters that RMC has converted. I so badly wanted a GCI refurb with some layout modifications. Wildcat in its earlier years was a beast with the PTC trains it originally ran with. It ran much faster with them and had better pacing all the way through the end. If you look up old videos of it from opening year, you can see how much faster it went into the brake run. The Millennium Flyer trains kind of neutered the experience and made it slower while not really doing anything for the smoothness. So in its later years, it was a shell of its former self. I still rode it multiple times every visit and often thought it was a better ride than Lightning Racer in some ways. Oh well, it is what it is. I can see why so many people enjoy RMC coasters but they're also not for everyone due to their intensity. I think a wooden Wildcat refurb would have actually appealed to a broader audience. But the RMC conversion also provided Hersheypark with something they didn't have in their coaster lineup. I'm still a wooden coaster fan at heart. As you said, they provide a thrill that you just don't get from anything else. I really would like to see GCI refurbish Lightning Racer soon! I don't want RMC taking away all wooden coasters!
