Six Flags Over Texas has announced plans to debut a record-breaking roller coaster this June!<\/p>\n

Unveiled September 2025, the Tormenta Rampaging Run will be the world\u2019s first giga dive coaster, a classification reserved for dive coasters exceeding 300 feet in height. <\/p>\n

Themed around the Spanish running of the bulls, the attraction will lift passengers 309 feet before executing a 95-degree vertical drop at speeds of nearly 90 mph. Through a series of intense twists and drops, the ride aims to simulate the chaotic and exhilarating energy of its namesake tradition.<\/p>\n

\u201cSix Flags Over Texas has always been a leader in creating unforgettable experiences , and with Tormenta Rampaging Run we are soaring to new heights,\u201d Mark Boyer, VP and Park Manager for Six Flags Over Texas, said in a press release.<\/p>\n
