Which is faster VelociCoaster or Hulk?

Many coasters at Universal Orlando have top thrill speeds with launches, loops, and more! But, the fastest roller coaster in Universal Orlando is VelociCoaster, clocking in at 70 mph top speed. It is only slightly faster than number two, which means the Incredible Hulk's max speed is 67 mph.



Between the two flagship roller coasters at Universal Islands of Adventure, the Jurassic World VelociCoaster is the faster ride. It reaches a top speed of 70 mph (113 km/h) during its second high-speed launch, which sends riders 155 feet into the air over a "top hat" element. In comparison, The Incredible Hulk Coaster reaches a top speed of 67 mph (108 km/h). While the difference in raw speed is only 3 mph, the ride experiences are very different: the Hulk is known for its intense, tire-propelled launch directly into a zero-G roll and its seven inversions, providing a "classic" heavy-thrill sensation. The VelociCoaster, which opened in 2021, utilizes modern linear synchronous motors (LSM) for two distinct launches and focuses on "airtime" and smooth, high-speed maneuvers. While Hulk remains a fan favorite for its sheer power and roar, VelociCoaster currently holds the title of the fastest (and tallest) coaster in the park.

Hagrids is super smooth, Hulk is intense but I didn't find it particularly jerky (YDS was obsessed so we rode it many many times). Hagrid, Veloci, Hippogryph, Nuthouse, Mummy, and Gringotts are all very smooth. Hulk's outer seats can be a little rough, depends on the wear of the wheels I've found.

VelociCoaster is intense, yet smooth – the intensity comes from the airtime and crazy maneuvers and not the roughness of the track. The only thing holding you in is a lap bar, which makes it comfortable one yet thrilling thanks to the air time, speed and the two separate launches. Child Swap?
