- Опубликовано: 21 авг 2024
- Hershey Park just announced their new roller coaster for 2020, Candymonium! Candymonium will be the park's SECOND hyper roller coaster following the addition of Skyrush in 2012. Did the park choose the right attraction? Watch this video to see what I think about the situation and be sure to comment down below your thoughts on the situation.

6:40 exactly. people need to realize that if a park isnt adding what you want them to add, there is probably a reason.
And, even still, what the park adds is up to them, not us. So, all the enthusiasts can bitch all they want, but its not going to get them anywhere and its not going to make the park change their mind
Idk why people care that it’s 2 hypers. They provide completely different experiences. That’s like complaining that Kennywood has steel curtain and Phantoms revenge because they’re both technically hypers. Or that cedar point has magnum and Steve. Who cares??? It’s about the experience on the ride, not the height being between 200-299.
phantom is technically not a hyper since the first hill is only 160 ft high tho...
Cullen McGoran I’m pretty sure it’s still classified as a hyper
@@tommymeehan2694 couldn't have said it any better and yes Phantom's Revenge does count as a hyper because of the 2nd drop at least I think that's why but it does still count as a hyper.
@@cullenmcgoran7291 Phantoms Revenge is a hyper coaster thanks to it's second drop.
well i stand corrected. still dont understand why it has to be so convoluted but meh. btw. steel curtain > phantoms revenge.. curtain is absolutely relentless from start to finish.
It's also more of a 'foundation' coaster or a staple coaster. It ties in the ChocolateTown area and helps the park become synonymous with their coasters, flats and candy.
It kind of reminds me of Gatekeeper at Cedar Point. Both rides serves its purpose to be synonymous with their parks, Hershey with candy and Cedar Point with lakefront thrills. The coaster has to be iconic and welcoming, but also friendly to parkgoers. We could see a lot of families ride this coaster.
Skyrush, a Candymonium and 3 drop towers? It's official: As of NOW I must go to this park.
shit and stormrunner! literally one of the best launch coasters
Storm runner, farenheit, skyrush, great bear, candymonium Hershey is doing a fantastic job with their rides!!
Lol people complaining about a B&M Hyper
LIKE LITERALLY IN THE LAST 8 YEARS SFOT HAS GOTTEN 1 COASTER AND ITS A FREE SPIN
Texas Coasters Titan is probably the most tame really tall ride ever lol
Cole Mouledous don’t worry u got aquaman in 2020 (a mack powersplash)
Literary the same with Hershey
@@willthecreator Superman Escape from Krypton has entered the chat
Sfot’s last real major investment was titan in 2001
Tbh tho I prefer titan to candymonium
Ryan: it’s very rare for a park to build two hyper coasters in the same park within a short time frame.
Cedar point: 😂
but to me their only real hyper is Magnum, the others don't really fit in the category (Millenium giga, Dragster strata, Valravn dive...)
Jorge B. Canchola and SteVe
ok, Steel Vengeance is a hyper hybrid, I just forgot the most important
@@colinfairchild910 SteVe still offers a radically different ride experience than a typical hyper-coaster. It's way faster pace, features a very different layout, and is about far more intense airtime and transitions than most. I wouldn't really classify it as a "hypercoaster" in the relevant sense for much the same reason dive coasters aren't typically called that.
Jorge B. Canchola the prefixes hyper, giga, and strata just describe the height. The type of ride is said after. So Valravn is called a hyper dive. The same goes for steel vengeance being a hyper hybrid.
The first time I went on skyrush I severely underestimated it, at the end I was just like "damn" while my eyes were still wide open.
Me too. I couldn't go on the first year since I was pregnant. My husband came off it with wide eyes telling me I would love it. I don't get on as often as I would like since it is usually just me and my 5 year old (and it is already his favorite even though he can't ride it yet). But whenever I get on it, wow, just wow.
That's what happens when you tell Intamin to cram a hyper coaster in a tiny area.
"Skyrush may as well be the most compact hypercoaster ever built"
Steel Curtain: Am I a joke to you?
There are 3 ways people react to Skyrush
1. Love it
2. Hate it
3. Airtime Thrills
underrated comment
PA has a height limit. As of now, they can't build a giga. This will be a great ride tho! Hopefully an rmc in a few years!
#RMCWildcat
I wish he mentioned that-- was wondering.
They can build a Giga if they use the terrain to their favor; however, the park frequently gets flooded out due to Spring Creek going thru the park.
I was about to comment about RMC wildcat because while many people think it’s garbage and headache inducing coaster , it’s my garbage and headache inducing coaster. It deserves to get the upgrade!
Also, I work at the park and the last time it flooded was 2018 and it knocked the park offline for 2 1/2 days. “The Hollow” section of the park was inaccessible.
Because it’ll give a much different ride experience. It’ll be less intense and it will be a crowd pleaser.
I typed down this right before your explanation 😂.
I totally agree.
Candymonium will be mostly ment for airtime
and Skyrush will be on the more intense side
I've been on a lot of roller coasters, and skyrush is one of the craziest i've been on.
Got to love how their new hyper is going to have the first chainless lift Hill!
Is it really?
bjtgaming isn’t sky rush chainless?
@@sauce1187 yea skyrush has a cable lift
sauce no
I’ve ridden both rides at the park. I can confirm that skyrush is way more intense, and candymonium offers a much smoother ride. It also looks great at the front of the park!
"Hershey is now one of the only parks in the world to feature two similarly sized hyper coasters that are so different from one another"
Phantoms Revenge and Steel Curtain at Kennywood are even more differentiated
Valravn Magnum and SteVe at Cedar Point are also way different
I would LOVE Skyrush with its intensity.. but I cannot enjoy it with its terrible restraints. If they simply changed the seats/ restraints, (basically ensure the bar comes to people's waist, then Id love it.
That background music sounds like a remix of the jingles you hear in Japan’s metro stations - that’s almost as cool as Skyrush nightrides
At Hershey! 😆🤟
I totally agree.
Candymonium will be mostly ment for airtime
and Skyrush will be on the more intense side
Have you ridden Skyrush? The airtime on that thing is absolutely insane, it's non stop ejector until the final brakes
@@AdamSmith-gs2dv pain ejector
candymonium unrivaled floater
skryrush… is skyrush
Yooo El Toro Ryan...Im cruisen to NJ for the first time to go to 6 flags and a few parks in Pennsylvania. I hope El Toro lives up to the hype
Michael Whitt bro I’m riding later this summer
therealdgh13 dgh13 it absolutely will not disappoint boys
Nothing quite like El toro you'll love it
when you go on el-toro ride the second seat from the back that's where you get the massive ejector.
Don’t worry, you won’t be disappointed!
That song choice is on POINT lol.
He uses that song on many of his videos
@@nathanieljohnston8126 didn't know that but it fits that coaster really well.
Does anyone know what the fuckin song is j can't find it
I just rode Candymonium today. Most airtime and smoothest coaster I have ever ridden. I LOVED it.
Absolutely love skyrush, since they don't use over the head restraints I always found that the experience was like flying, especially if you get a seat on the end without a floor. Never thought it was a big deal just a great coaster, but when my bf at the time went on with me he was absolutely terrified the entire time and didn't want to ride anything else that day :/
By far the best coaster in the park. Got 10 runs last year - got in on the sneak preview.
Coaster Enthusiasts and most theme/amusement parks: most of the GP aren't fans of crazy intense rollercoasters.
Magic Mountain which is home to X2, one of the most batshit balls to the walls intense coasters ever built which is 60% of the GP's favorite ride at the park: laughs in the distance.
From my experience, I thought that x2 had some intense moments, but most of the ride felt pretty graceful.
I am personally really excited for this coaster!
5:38 Actually, it was 2017. 2018 was a water park year with Breaker's Edge and Whitecap Racers.
I think Skyrush is an amazing ride and the lap bar is the only way to go. I went hands up my entire first ride and I was embarrassed to say that it actually scared me a little lol. Great video man
That backround music just became my jam
It better be *smooth* like the firebird 🔥🦅
My biggest gripe with Skyrush is that Hershey HAS to know that the restraints are absolutely terrible. They could easily boost the reputation of the ride by switching them out, which Intamin has shown they are able to do with the hard over-the-shoulder restraints. This especially should be true now that Hyperion has opened with the same train design and revised restraints.
@4640jds you're also watching a video about roller coasters calm down
@4640jds ok but could you not
your sitdown review and analysis videos are very well thought out and your deep thought process almost almost always has me agreeing with every point
great video
Lol I like how they said that they wanted a “crowd pleaser” with Skyrush. Look how that turned out...
You make very nice points about this park,and the fact that you are aware of the coaster enthusiasts not always appreciate the needs of the many! Really enjoying your videos. Next time you are in Hershey it would be awesome to meet up with you guys and have a few "hydrating" drinks and a few rides. Well done Ryan!
Just went to Hershey yesterday and I can say the ThighCrush was real and the coaster was rougher than I remember! Excited for the new coaster though!
Maybe Skyrush is getting pulled in a couple more years?????
@@BackSeatJunkie I hope not Skyrush is my number one
So fun fact. Skyrush is actually a 2nd Generation Intamin Wing coaster. The only 1st Gen version in the world is Furious Baco at Portaventura. The 2nd Gen one was made to pack in the same thrills while having thinner and much sturdier truck, and less staff needed to man the thing.
this is what kings dominion needs to do. they need to open themselves up a crowd pleaser B&M hyper to make up for intimidator and to fill the gap between their mega coasters and giga coaster.
I love your videos. You're actually smart and educated and take off the enthusiast glasses for these analysis videos. Everybody should listen, you actually seem like you know what you're talking about! I can't wait for Candymonium. It will be a totally different ride than Skyrush.
i love the restraints of skyrush, as a bigger person finding major coasters that i can fit in can be a challenge at times.
Hey this ride is amazing it’s good that Hershey added this because one Hyper coaster is intense the other gives decent forces and floater airtime
Every time I go on skyrush there is no line 😂
skyrush is one of my favorite coasters because of the airtime and intend so i believe candymonium will be a good fit for the park
Candymonium’s drop hits DIFFERENT than what it looks but its fucking awesome
I saw a lot of people whining about the name on Facebook. I honestly think the name is amazing.
I think it's fine
People need to remember this park wouldn't exist if it wasn't for candy. No factory=no town=no park
cause they need floater airtime (there really isn't any in the park) and a second B&M, and I mean why not? it's not like they're gonna get a giga, there's residential areas two inches from the edge of the park
edit: they also need something really marketable (especially if they're gonna rmc a woodie) cause the last major attraction they've had was skyrush in 2012
Krista I know!! Sky Rush has insane ejector throughout, Storm Runner has a really good pop of ejector at the top hat and Fahrenheit has the mini ejector hill at the end.
If there's any ride in Hershey that needs an RMC it's Wildcat. That ride is a piece of shit. Riding that followed by Lightning Racer is like night and day.
@@MakBot I agree I would’ve preferred RMC wildcat but a b&m is fine too
Does anybody else think Hershey park builds shorter roller coaster experiences then other parks? Candymonium seems pretty short and does not have as many elements as other B&M Hyper Coasters... Hershey just bought a ton of land, i sure hope they have something bigger in mind to fill the space. They could have done so much more. Nonetheless, im still very excited about this upcoming coaster! Its pleasing to the eye and im sure overall will still be fun! just a little disappointed in what it could have been.
B&M built a coaster in Hershey under strict tight rules before in Great Bear. The structure of that ride is incredible, they were not allowed to build into the water.
When I went to Hershey, Skyrush was a walk on. However it was scorching when I went. the longest line outside of the water park was for Fahrenheit at like 40 minutes. All water rides and slides had over an hour waits
Admittedly I'm not exactly what I'd call a full blown roller coaster enthusiast per say, but as someone that has been to Hershey Park quite a few times, I think that this was a good move on their part. Skyrush is definitely a well designed coaster, but even disregarding the intensity of the ride, which I'll fully admit to being something others would consider a perk, my other biggest gripe about it is how *short* the ride is, especially compared to the lines it tends to attract. Because of that, I've always liked Great Bear and Fahrenheit a lot more. Candymonium at least seems to be a lot more like what I'm looking for in a coaster.
And we thought steel curtain was a bad name
Candy is the whole reason this park exists. No factory=no town=no park.
Well I've ridden both, and you are correct. I haven't rode a coaster since Fahrenheit came out whenever that was. I didn't even know candymonium was there when I visited last week. I went on skyrush before candymonium, and candymonium felt very boring compared to skyrush. It was fast, but that's about it.
I started watching your videos after I went because I can't wait to get on another coaster. My first time on skyrush (second coaster I went on after comet) after not riding a coaster after 12 years was like a high I'm sure I'll be chasing for quite some time.
How did you not notice it's the first thing when you walk into the park? lol
@@killz494 Meaning i didn't know until I walked in lol
Ha, I'm glad I'm not the only one that hates the restraints on Skyrush. I love the ride's dynamics, but the restraints are so painful that it ruins the experience, and it's all I can think about when riding. Because of this, I don't ride it often.
Not complaining about them adding another hyper. I will say though that the name seems like it would be better suited with a family coaster than a Hyper. But that won't keep me from riding it.
- Gary
ITS SO SMOOTH
That first turn from the drop Is insane and intense
They built one because Kennywood just got Steel Curtain. Hershey has always been classified as a family park. Not too many thrill rides for teen/adults. This new addition should give them something cool to ride.
6:32 unless you're Kentucky Kingdom lol
Personally I think B&M hypers can be snoozers but I love nitro and this layout looks more intense than some of the older B&Ms, I'm sure this will be massively successful for the park and it never hurts to add another coaster to a good lineup. I predict RMC wildcat in 2022
Consistently some of the best explanations/reviews on youtube. I had a lot of the same thoughts as you as to why Candymonium is being built. Hershey needs a coaster to please the GP. I have no problem with another hypercoaster. Why does CP have to be the only one? Or one of the only ones. I also love the candy crush thing. Let the memes roll in.
Dude one of these days I'm making stop riding your piece so hard, but until then, the flowers continue.
You are sooo fuckin smart! I compare your take on this subject compared to CS, and you just blow him out of the water with your intricate descript of this project. It's just always broken down in a manner that the slowest (myself) of the slow leaves the vid feeling informed and smart as fuck! Man you really have a future in this shit, so DON'T FUCK IT UP!
#SALUTE
I agree completely, except for the Meh-ko reference. I hope this one doesn't die at the mcbr, if there even is on.
To this day I still can't figure out why they don't actually fix the restraints on Sky Rush
Did anyone else notice that the trains are all kinda small? Looks like they're missing a row.
Coaster Labs yeah its only 6 rows. Mostly it is 7-9 rows. It’s strange.
@@TJPProductionsYT but then again the coaster lacks a chain according to the animation, lol.
In 2019, i went to hershey with my daughter then 7 years old and went on mostly family rides, but towards the end, i was itching to get on a larger coaster, so i left my husbad and daughter to ride sky rush bc it was right in front of me and i was like oh a nice hyper ride. I went front row and was waiting for it to start when the ppl next to me told me i better remove my glasses. I was confused bc i knew it didnt go upside down or anything. They were like this ride is intense. How intense could a ride like this be i thought. Haha.
Lol. Did you ever do it again?
I was just there back in May and judging by the construction 🚧 lay out this coaster is going to be big 👍🏾
Proud to be a ride operator over there
3:44 the kid between the c and r
Awesome video! I liked hearing your thoughts!
Skyrush is a BADASS coaster.
I'm not a coaster enthusiast. I went on skyrush, I thought I was gonna die
I love Skyrush.
Candymonium is amazing, I loved it, def prefered it to skyrush
Thanks for this video. It answered some questions I had 👍
Skyrush is kind of like I305 taken to the next level even though it's only a hyper. I found a decent contrast even between the 2 big B&Ms at Carowinds. This is more like Skyrush crossed with Fury than I232 though.
I live out west in Arizona and visit a lot of amusement parks when we travel any how Hersheypark is are favorite amazing clean fun place
I go to Hersheypark a lot and I love skyrush but I. Kinda hate how hammered you get on the ride Especially at the end but they fix this in the year of 2019 where they made it so the thy bars release pressure by about an inch but I’m still excited for the new ride
The background music reminds me of the Japan ranking video.
Just got on Skyrush yesterday and the first time I sat in the middle and it was okay. Then I sat on the back and I’m still feeling the thigh pain. I even thought I fractured my femur with how bad it was hurting.
I definitely want to try out skyrush now because I love roller coaster sand intensity
I love skyrushhhh!!! I can ride it all day
What song is in the background?
I'm soooo getting Mako vibes from this and if it delivers just as the same, I'm here for it.
Michael Howard tbh I wish San Atonio seaworld had more land and built a hyper coast called kraken or mako,and it doesnt have to be the same
I've got great adventure and HP within driving distance. Nitro at great adventure is the best coaster ive been on (besides kingda ka). B&M make a solid coaster. Skyrush is also decent (aside from the godawful seats and restraints).
Hershey park?
We all know the best coaster there.
Cocoa cruiser!
candy crush stands for Candy monium & thy Crush
I think these 6 car trains better not ruin this puppy
I believe the ride will actually run 7 car trains! The park confirmed over social media that the animation is incorrect!
ElToroRyan oh this is wonderful news
Because Hersey park has a height limit
It is obviously because a lot of people do not like skyrush because of the layout, intensity, and restraints
Mako minus the mid course seems like there's a good chance this could be even better.
So *technically* this is and is not true;
Derry Township has to approve all structures, and during the development of this Derry Township officials were getting NUMEROUS complaints about traffic - adding a giga would only draw more people and create more traffic issues. Source - am resident of Harrisburg, I am involved in politics in my county (which Derry Township resides in), and I've lived in Hershey once as well as worked at the park.
Derry Township is considered "Rural" in the state - and considering during concerts traffic in the entire town of Hershey, Harrisburg, Palmyra, etc. comes to a complete grinding hault, I can see why Derry Township refused to allow a Giga - only to draw even more people. I can distinctly remember "concert days" while working at the park, where employees would literally sit by their cars and talk after the park closed for 20-30+ minutes to allow the concert goers to get home. Derry Township is also one of the few Rural townships to have quite the contingent of "crowd control" in their police force - again solely for Hersheypark and Concerts.
Hersheypark is 1 piece of the whole puzzle. You have Hersheypark Stadium for outdoor concerts, Giant Center for concerts, conventions, etc., and you have Hershey's Hotel, Lodge, the finest hospital in the world (which you also have to consider air traffic - PennState Milton Hershey Medical Center has a FLEET of custom built French medical helicopters called 'Life Lion' that are very expensive and a sense of pride in the area to consider), and the closest highway (I83/i81) are accessible *ONLY* be either the 4-lane 322 that has 3 traffic lights on the highway before you reach the interstates or the two-lane county road that has numerous traffic lights, numerous driveways of residents, etc.
Hershey isn't necessarily connected to highways like Kings Dominion, Six Flags Great Adventure, etc.
Hershey sits in rural PA - sure it's not "Rural" anymore but the infrastructure sure is, and much of that belongs to the State, which if you think they're going to spend hundreds of millions of dollars upgrading the infrastructure for an amusement park (which by the way Pennsylvania has numerous parks), you really don't know Government ;)
Candymonium should have been a giga - it would have met all the zoning requirements to be a giga, it was built outside the normal flight patterns of Life Lion (unlike Skyrush and Storm Runner), it would have been 100% covered by the park, and it would've been great - great of course, until you add in the traffic and locals. Don't get me wrong - locals *love* hersheypark, many kids start their employments there, many a locals own season passes, but none of the locals like the traffic that comes along with the locals, and sometimes locals also don't like the riff raft that comes with living near a world class amusement park.
EDIT: IK I'm two years late :(
OH YES! They should have seated 80 - 100 people on the train
Would love to see a deep dive into Hershey Park's coasters from you. Really underrated coaster park but my absolute favorite. I mean, Stormrunner is just Kingda Ka Jr. on crack lol
I like this. I have Hershey has home park and oddly, my favorite type of ride is a B&M hyper. I think it's a little dumb but still I think it's a good edition with Sky Rush not being liked.
Great explanation and analysis, Ryan!
Now, I just need to hear Logan say "One train ops"!
Yo, if u tell me what that music In the background, I’ll click all ads
It’s not available anywhere online, my friend Jimmy made it lol but he calls it JR Banger. He took the music played on JR trains in Japan and made it trap af
skyrush was going to be built by mack for a while, the original announcement video showed it as a mack but it was going to be too expensive so Intamin built it instead
Yes
All a Hypercoaster is, is one over 200ft... that it.. This will compliment SkyRush nicely as a smoother ride
Skyrush is smooth. The difference between Candamonium and Skyrush is that Candamonium will be a less intense ride than the absolute insanity Skyrush is
There are also zoning issues that explain why they didn’t build a giga.
two thing. One the triple tower was opened in 2017. And the point where skyrush and candymonium intermingle is called CandyRush not candy crush
Although CandyCrush fits better... you know, because of the thigh crushing that happens in Skyrush 😂.
Canada’s wonderland...
