I really love the way you make your videos and how you explain the ride experience. I think you’re the best in the coaster community at describing the sensations you feel. I always have such a good image in my mind if what the ride is like after watching your videos. I also think you must be the hardest working person on RUclips. I don’t know of another channel that releases content at the same pace as you.
Thank you for all you do.
Glad you enjoy it!
omg you're so lucky to have ridden this
It was a bucket list ride!
Canobie Coaster so this launch should be even more powerful than formula rossa
I had a good day at Dorney Park yesterday and thankfully the weather was good the whole day. Steel Force was wild, Talon was amazing, Hydra was jerky and Thunderhawk was rough. I also rode Dominator, Revolution, Enterprise and Demon Drop. Meteor was closed which I actually didn’t expect and obviously Possessed was closed
Glad you had a great day at Dorney!
This was an awesome review!
Thanks so much!
Nice review! Do-Dodonpa looks awesome
It is!
Excellent review
Thanks!
This ride had its run for 20 years, may this ride rest in peace the park just announced this ride is closing permanently, Rip this legendary ride
RIP, what a launch!
It was interesting to hear your thoughts against other major launch coasters. Do-Dodonpa is definitely a bucket list coaster for me just for that launch. I don't think the acceleration will ever be topped.
I agree, but I could see North American parks trying to top Maxx Force's record.
@@CanobieCoaster yeah definitely. Good point!
Great review. Nice to hear you rate it against Ka and TTD.
Thanks! It felt natural to compare Do-dodonpa to the US extreme launch coasters.
Looks like a blast!
It is!
i've been on stealth and the launch is hella intense and feels very fast, i had only been on rita before that and its waaaaay faster and more intense. i cant imagine going 0-110+ in even less than that jeez
It's crazy.
@@CanobieCoaster Did they finally reopen the ride?
@@infodisco4097 Do Dodonpa has probably shut forever
DoDoDonpa is my favorite coaster out of the 300+ I've been on. The launch is just sublime
That launch is an out of body experience.
Have they re opened it?
@@infodisco4097 no
I'm here after the tragic news that Do Dodonpa will be closed forever. It was one of my top bucket list rides and one that I wish I could've gotten on. I really hope Fuji Q puts a worthwhile successor in it's place (RMC t.rex anyone?) instead of a Vekoma family boomerang but it will be a massive regret of mine that I never got to sit in that tunnel hearing that guy say "Launch time!"
I hope the replacement is worthwhile.
I’ve ridden Stealth, TTD, Kingda Ka and Maxx Force and they’re all insane. I can’t imagine how Do Dodonpa would be.
Do-Dodonpa's launch feels instant. You can process the acceleration on the others.
Canobie Coaster Yeah I bet you can’t
I was lucky to get to do Hypersonic too, but this is the only coaster I've EVER been on where I genuinely needed my riding partner to hold my hand.
The launch is insane.
@@CanobieCoaster yeah it really inspires actual fear. If only the rest were half as good, but the loop is fun. Hypersonic had really violent airtime too and this looked even moreso, wish I had gotten the chance to get on the original.
YOU RODE IT! I DIDNT KNOW THAT! That’s awesome! Tell me more:)
Yes I did!
I LOVE aftershock. it's a great inverted boomerang
It's decent.
I am 5th viewer i love your videos keep up
Awesome! Thank you!
I can't imagine what this launch feels like.
It's sublime.
With normal hydraulic launches it kinda feels like ur stomach drops, but dododonpa doesn’t give ur stomach enough time for that. Ur just pressed against ur seat reeeeally hard just for a short amount of time and then boom ur already at top speed. It’s kinda hard to recall just a second of ur life tbh
It feels like a really hard brake run but ur pushed back into ur seat instead of forward
This is high up on my bucket list, but I really fear that this ride will never re-open, along with many other launch coasters. For reference, in the Coaster Studios video where Taylor reviewed his favourite launch coasters, all the launches he placed in the top 5 are either removed, SBNO, or unlikely to last past 2024 (he didn't ride Formula Rossa and I think that will stay for a few years). TTD and Volcano are gone, Do-Dodonpa may be forced to permanently close by the Japanese government, don't know what's going on with Xcelerator but I'd be surprised if it lasts past 2024, and with Kingda Ka losing it's speed record and with the merger, 2024 looks like the last year for this great coaster. While the quality of coasters is improving, it is truly a sad time for fans of the good launch.
Xcelerator is currently open. I do not know if this ride will reopen given the injuries people sustained, but I hope it can.
I was lucky enough to experience the top hat of both this and XLC (no where near as intense), but because it's the only of the original 2 air launch coasters remaining, I too am devastated they removed the airtime hill. I have not experienced it since the speed increase and loop. This coaster could still be drastically improved with some airtime hills before and one floater speed hill after the loop.. It would turn it from a one trick pony good coaster into an unmissable one.
Lucky!
The dip after the launch does look like it would provide a pop of floater, but I do agree that chucking in an airtime hill or two would be good. Hell, on the straight section near the end, they could probably add a heartline roll.
@@cancercentral9997 this. I know it was shorter and smaller and the launch slower but hypersonic xlc was the shit, as far as top hat airtime. Did you ever get to experience that? I did in 2001 and then never again.
I can't comprehend how fast this launch is.
It's eye-popping.
Sorry for not commenting I was away, but most of the coasters on my top 25 bucket list have the complete package, and then there is dododonpa, which looks just so downright insane that it’s right up there with rides like taiga, Zadra and karnan, u said the launch doesn’t even feel like it accelerates and if that’s true that’s just ridiculous, but I’m curious how much G’s does dododonpa’s launch reach?
I think it was over 3 Gs when I calculated it. And to get that almost instantaneously is crazy.
Canobie Coaster my dada cousin flew fighter jets for the navy and he said they go from 0-150 in about 2 seconds, which is nearly the same acceleration rate as dododonpa which is just ridiculous
I've got to get out there and ride this someday. But my expectations for it aren't too high. I don't know if I'll like the launch more than Kinda Ka or TTD. I actually far prefer those launches to the more powerful launch on Maxx Force, although I do realize that Do-Dodonpa's launch is easily more powerful.
I still need to get on Maxx Force to compare that one.
This should make max force seem like child’s play there’s no coaster with anything close to this burst even formula rossa only does about 50 mile mph in 1 sec
@@CanobieCoaster Maxx Force does 0-80 mph in 1.75 seconds. Its launch is ballistic.
Would you like to go to Nasu Highland or Rusutsu?
Yes I would.
I really want to ride this
It's amazing.
I wish I could see an off ride of this coaster with out the tunnel. That would be insane
Unless Fuji-Q gives us that video, unfortunately we're not going to get it.
The tunnel probably reduces drag and increases it's speed.
R.I.P. Do-Dodonpa
12/21/2001-8/12/2021
RIP
This roller coaster launches so hard that it broke people’s bones so hard on august 12, 2021
I heard. Hope it can reopen safely.
Now maxx force and stealth has the world's fastest acceleration rip dodonpa
RIP crazy launch.
Someday I want to ride this monster.
The launch delivers!
How long does it take for kingda ka to reach 80mph or 112mph ?
3.5 seconds to reach 128 mph.
@@CanobieCoaster but how long does it take to reach 80 or 112
2.2 seconds to reach 80, and 3.05 to reach 112, but that’s assuming linear acceleration, which isn’t the case
4:37 ya dododonpa had a 210 minute wait today! (I have the app lol)
That doesn't surprise me, especially if they have to reduce capacity with the pandemic.
Sadly Fuji q doesn’t social distance but hey at least the lines are normal! (Which isn’t really that fast lmao)
that thing is like a jet plane
Sounds like one too.
At Fuji-Q Highland, did you like all coasters including Mad Mouse?
I liked the major coasters.
What coaster is next
Twister or Phoenix.
Canobie Coaster Do Twister that’s actually my favorite Wooden Coaster at the park
I wonder how many people have blacked out on that gigantic 180 degree banked turn
Not sure!
What parks did you go to in japan?
I was there for 3 weeks in 2017 so I went to almost all of the major parks except Nasu Highland and Rusutsu.
Lol Nasu highland is my home park. That’s really cool though!
@@CanobieCoaster No Big Boom? :(
Canobie Coaster Did you do Parque Espana
@@MaxThrills Nasu Highland was a bit tricky with public transit so I opted for an extra day at Disney.
So dragster takes off at 40 mph in 1 second and this does a full freaking 112mph the launch probably has to separate your soul from your body. I can’t wait to experience it
It's amazing!
You forgot to mention the glowy rave tunnel
It happened so fast I barely noticed it.
do do donpa with stand up trains when
Oh boy!
Do dodonpa with spinning cars activated by the speed when
RIP
It will be missed.
fast
Yes
so you’re telling me that this runs 2 trains 8 per. That’s how I operate untamed at canobie
Yes
I don't think the Japanese are that impatient compared to us, since their culture is built around respect and patience, so if a line is 3 hours long, they won't care. Plus the organized nature of how the operators do this is the reason why the line can move slow, but I can understand that because of their culture, it's not a bad thing.
I agree they are more tolerant to waiting. That being said, I do wish this line moved faster somehow.
@@CanobieCoaster It's probably way faster than the line for The Flying Dinosaur :D
Did you know this ride was closed and removed?
Unfortunately due to some injuries.
This makes Xcelerator look like a kiddie coaster
I wouldn't quite go that far. Xcelerator still has a great launch.
Canobie Coaster Yeah, I’ve been on every major launch in North America and Europe (except MaxxForce and Red Force), and Xcelerator felt the most powerful to me.
I haven't been on MaxxForce, but Xcelerator feels the strongest of the hydraulic launch coasters and it's probably the strongest launch in the US. The only other ride that feels comparable for me oddly enough is Powder Keg.
top hat was better but the loop is fun
I wish I could've experienced the top hat.
I don't see this record ever being beaten
I think it's unlikely.
It would be very hard
Too bad this one is SBNO now
I heard. I hope it can reopen.
In my opinion I think dododonpa is overrated but that’s just me! This launch shouldn’t be compared to top thrill dragster it should be compared to time travel cause it’s not that forceful imo
It seems natural to compare those two because both are launch based rides over in a flash.
So you’re saying Do-Dodonpa’s launch is not forceful?
Probably because it’s over so quickly you didn’t even get to experience it.
Dude that is so true
How is it not that forceful
Formula rossa has the fastest hydraulic 😂😂😂😂
Formula Rossa has the fastest top speed. This one has a faster rate of acceleration.
@@CanobieCoaster you realize that it’s dodonopa is an air launch coaster right
