\n\t\t\t\"rush\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t[vc_empty_space height=”25px”][vc_column_text]Rush at Thorpe Park is an exhilarating ride that will have you feeling nervous to board, but will have your adrenaline pumping around after tackling it! The roller coaster is a giant swing ride, and at one point was the tallest ride<\/strong> of its kind in the entire world!<\/p>\n

It starts off with low, gentle swings, eventually becoming higher and higher until you reach the full height of 75ft<\/strong>! An impressive height that will have you feeling like you’re soaring high above the clouds. It’s also stomach-turning, but that’s the fun about roller coasters! With the swing reaching angles of 104 degrees<\/strong>, you’ll be facing the ground as you’re high in the air. Especially when you’ve reached the peak air where you’ll really feel the G-force of 3.5 and hit awesome speeds of 50mph! Finally, after another 4 swings, you’ll slowly return back to the ground and you’ll certainly feel like you’ve just come back to the feeling of gravity!<\/p>\n

With two big swings attached to the mainframe, it can hold up to 768 riders per hour<\/strong>! Swinging in opposite directions, it’s definitely an experience to be had.<\/p>\n

Rush is a middle ground ride, for those younger thrill-seekers who want to challenge themselves before they’re old\/tall enough for the bigger rides like SAW, Vortex and The Swarm. So, essentially this is a ride for the entire family to enjoy.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”25px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”25px”][vc_column_text]\n
