The Storm Coaster Overview

On February 17, 2022, the doors opened to the world's largest vertical launch roller coaster inside Dubai Hills Mall, United Arab Emirates, known as the Storm Coaster in Dubai. The Storm is an indoor roller coaster that sends riders hurtling along a 670-meter track that winds through the building at speeds of up to 41 kilometers per hour on their maximum vertical launch.

The Storm Coaster in Dubai Hills Mall is the world's quickest vertical launch roller coaster, according to Guinness World Records. Opened in February 2017, the roller coaster has a launch speed of 41 kilometers per hour, travels a distance of 670 meters, and features a vertical ascent. The attraction is powered by magnetic LSM motors and features a completely vertical launch, delivering passengers more than 50 meters up into the building. When it first launched, the Storm Coaster aimed to wow visitors with an unforgettable ride unlike anything they had ever experienced.

The feat was recognised by Guinness World Records as well. Incorporating special effects and actual footage of extreme events from around the world, this roller coaster built into the building's structure creates a thrilling experience. The riders are dropped from above into the eye of a massive storm, where they engage in a dizzyingly fast two-and-a-half minute chase. The question then becomes, "Can you face an incredible fire while drenched?" Get ready to weather the ideal storm without so much as a raindrop in sight!
