ABOUT THIS RIDE
What The Incredible Hulk Coaster® is
Hulk opened with Islands of Adventure in 1999 and was rebuilt with a new track and trains in 2016. Published speed is about 108 km/h from a tyre-drive launch, with seven inversions. It is still the park’s inversion workhorse even after VelociCoaster arrived.
The launch tunnel is the signature: the train hits the first inversion almost immediately. If you want a traditional inversion coaster rather than a Jurassic launch or a Harry Potter story ride, this is the Islands of Adventure page to open.
Height is listed at 137 cm (54 in), higher than Hagrid’s. That split is useful when planning a group: not everyone who rides Hagrid’s can ride Hulk.
What to expect
Seven inversions in a sit-down train, starting with a launch instead of a chain lift. It is a forceful B&M, not a family coaster.
Front row shows the roll arriving out of the tunnel. Rear row is stronger through the later inversions. Both complete the same layout.
