Tormenta Rampaging Run is an upcoming steel roller coaster currently under construction in Six Flags Over Texas. Manufactured by Bolliger and Mabillard, it will break several records upon opening, including the tallest, fastest, and longest Dive Coaster on record. ^{[1] [2]} It will be Bolliger & Mabillard's second tallest roller coaster when completed only behind Fury 325 at Carowinds. ^[2]

History

The "dive coaster" was initially announced in November 2024 as a "record breaking dive coaster", along with the closure of El Diablo and La Vibora. ^[3] Several months later, on September 25, 2025, the roller coaster's name (Tormenta Rampaging Run) and specifications were officially revealed. ^{[1] [4]}

Tormenta Rampaging Run is expected to open in 2026.

Records

When completed, Tormenta Rampaging Run will become the first "giga dive coaster", a Dive Coaster of at least 300 feet in height, as well as the tallest on record, with a peak height of 309 ft. It will also become the fastest and longest Dive Coaster in the world, with the height, drop, and length records originally set by Yukon Striker in 2019. ^[5] It will also be the second-tallest B&M roller coaster on record. Additionally, the 285 ft long drop will become the longest beyond-vertical drop ever created on a roller coaster. The train will then dive into the ride's first inversion, a 218 ft tall Immelmann, which will be the tallest Immelmann inversion in the world, and one of the tallest of any inversions on record. With a 179 ft tall vertical loop, it will have the tallest vertical loop on record, surpassing Flash at Lewa Adventure. ^[6] Finally, the roller coaster will become first giga coaster with inversions and the tallest roller coaster with inversions worldwide.
