Six Flags Over Texas Officially Opens Worlds Tallest, Fastest, Longest Dive Coaster

If you're a die-hard coaster enthusiast who lives for that single, stomach-dropping moment right before a massive plunge, it’s officially time to adjust your summer travel plans. After a wave of anticipation and a brief testing delay that had the internet running wild with theories, the wait is officially over.

Six Flags Over Texas has officially opened Tormenta: Rampaging Run.

    And they aren't just introducing a new ride for the park’s landmark 65th anniversary season—they have unleashed the world's very first "giga dive coaster" (a specialized engineering category for dive coasters scaling between 300 and 400 feet tall).

    Built by the legendary Swiss ride manufacturers Bolliger & Mabillard, this steel beast completely rewrites the global record books by claiming six distinct world records the exact second it charges out of the gate:

    The Tallest Dive Coaster: Towering a staggering 309 feet into the air. The Highest Beyond-Vertical Drop: A terrifying 285-foot plunge toward the earth. The Highest Immelmann Inversion: Flipping riders head-over-heels at a record-breaking 218 feet in the air. The Tallest Vertical Coaster Loop: A massive, loop-the-loop track element scaling 179 feet tall. The Fastest Dive Coaster: Rocketing passengers to a maximum velocity of 87 mph. The Longest Dive Coaster: Blasting through a sprawling 4,199 feet of track.

    The physical ride layout is engineered around pure, unadulterated suspense. The custom open-air vehicles carry daring riders up a massive 309-foot lift hill, revealing a sweeping, panoramic view of the entire Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. But you won't have long to admire the skyline.

    The train hits a holding brake right at the precipice, pausing passengers face-first over the edge for three agonizing seconds. You are left staring directly down at a 95-degree, beyond-vertical drop—which, as the park likes to point out, isn't just straight down; it's technically angled on the other side of straight down. Once the brake releases, the coaster drops into a free-fall acceleration that hits top speeds in a flash, seamlessly transitioning through a high-velocity sequence of giant flips and weightless airtime moments.

    Beyond the jaw-dropping track specs, Six Flags has used the launch to execute a massive, beautifully detailed overhaul of its historic Spain section, completely transforming it into Rancho de la Tormenta.

    The area is styled as a secluded, rustic Spanish village celebrating a fictional festival dedicated to the ranch hands who raised the town's most legendary, powerful bull, Tormenta. The entire zone has been elevated with vibrant festive banners, restored historic fountains, upbeat cultural music, and brand-new cooling mist zones to offer some much-needed mercy from the intense Texas summer sun.

    "Tormenta: Rampaging Run is set to forever change not only the Arlington skyline, but the full lineup of thrills only offered at Six Flags Over Texas," said Pete Carmichael, park president of Six Flags Over Texas. "With the addition of this record-breaking dive coaster, Six Flags Over Texas is a must-visit destination for thrill lovers from all over the world."

    The ride is officially running daily for the general public right now. Just a quick pro-tip for anyone packing their bags to tackle the bull this summer: because this coaster does not negotiate with pockets, the park utilizes a strict locker system similar to Disney's Tron Lightcycle/Run. You'll need to stash all loose treasures, hats, and phones in the plaza lockers before you can ever scale the loading platform stairs. Go ahead and drop the gate—the wildest ride in Texas is officially waiting for you.
