The 28 Most Common TYPES of Roller Coasters EXPLAINED

Ойын-сауық

In this video, I show you the most common types of roller coasters so that you’ll know how to distinguish different coasters at a park. There are different ways to categorize roller coasters including by their height, orientation, and material. Some coasters can even fit into multiple types! If you ever thought that roller coasters all look the same, I hope this video proves that there is a huge diversity in roller coaster experiences.

    This guy is criminally underrated. Good pacing, good explanations, good production quality, good almost everything else.

    dude imagine a boomerang type roller coaster where it brings you to the top of the lift hill but goes backwards into some inversions, then powered back forward by a launch to pass through the first lift hill and then into the rest of the ride

    Hey, idk if you were already told this but 500 footers would not be called polar coasters. Polar coasters are their own thing. Basically a massive El Loco coaster that wraps around a very large tower. They can be any height. A 500 footer coaster by itself would unofficially be known as a terra-coaster.

    My favourite is actually inverts (only b&m and giovanola inverts definitely not slc’s)

    Inverts can be some of the best ways to experience inversions!

    Hybrid coasters aren't new, they date back to at least 1911, when the Giant Racer at Luna Park Nyc opened. Hope this helps! 😊

    Yeah they’ve been around for forever but for some reason we’re never popularized until the 2010s.

    They’re not as common as the other types I mentioned, but they pack a punch!
