Hollywood Rip, ride, rockit is a new rollercoaster which opens some time
in the Spring of 2009 and it looks like it will rock.
Adrenaline pumping and music thumping, you find yourself heading straight toward
the sky. Suddenly, you are doing 65 mph, 17 stories over Universal Studios. Gasping
with excitement, you rock out to a song you picked before strapping in. And, it’s
all on video.! Once the adventure is over, you edit the video to send to your friends.
Hollywood Rip, Ride, Rockit will stake its claim as the most technologically
advanced roller coaster in the world. The Universal Creative team is combining audio
and special effects engineering, sophisticated on- and off-board video and one-of-a-kind
guest personalization to create a roller coaster experience unlike any other.
Guests can customize their ride experience by choosing what song will play while
they’re on the roller coaster. LED boards in the queue lines will display song options
from five genres (classic rock, rap, country, pop and soundtracks). Once on-board,
guests can choose their song or let the coaster’s digital sound system choose for
them. When the ride is over, guests will be able to customize footage from their
experience and compile it into a take-home music video
Hollywood Rip, Ride, Rockit will be located near the Jimmy Neutron attraction traveling
the southern perimeter of the Universal Studios theme park, over to the CityWalk
lagoon and back.
