“We are always looking for exciting ways to take thrills to a new level. This first-of-its-kind roller coaster will be the perfect addition to the already incredible lineup of attractions at SeaWorld Orlando,” said Kyle Miller, SeaWorld Orlando Park President. “SeaWorld Orlando will be the only place in the world to ride a roller coaster like this and we welcome everyone looking for the chance to experience it.”

First-of-Its-Kind Surfing Launch and Moving Seats

The innovative design elements that make this a first-of-its-kind roller coaster are the surfing launch and “wave jumping” motions that riders will experience. 

The unique surfboard-shaped ride vehicle will give riders an immersive experience from the moment it starts. 

They will be secured on the roller coaster in a surfing position and launched at top speeds, feeling like they are catching a wave. 

Riders will then feel like they are hanging loose when their seats rise and fall to mimic the sensation of riding on a wave while sending them through several gnarly twists and turns.

“Pipeline: The Surf Coaster” Will Reach Radical Heights and Speeds

Each rider will get the rush of cutting through waves as they race up to heights of 110 feet in the air and feel like they are about to wipe out when they go upside down on a wave curl along the 2,950 feet of track. 

“Pipeline” will send riders on a journey reaching max speeds of 60 miles per hour, with five different airtime moments lasting a total of 1 minute and 50 seconds. 

The ride has a projected height requirement of 54”, designed by Bolliger & Mabillard Consulting Engineers, Inc., based in Switzerland.

“Pipeline” will be the seventh roller coaster at SeaWorld Orlando, reinforcing the theme park’s reputation as the Coaster Capital of Orlando. 

It joins an impressive roster of coasters that include Mako, which was voted the #1 Best Roller Coaster by the USA Today 10Best Readers’ Choice poll, and Ice Breaker, which was voted the #1 New Attraction by the USA Today 10Best Readers’ Choice poll. 

“Pipeline” will be the latest in a string of top-notch roller coasters that continue to break the mold and bring thrill-seekers from around the world to SeaWorld Orlando.
