With Memorial Day behind us and the summer just beginning, this is a good time to scope out what the theme parks around the country have been up to. Plan your timeshare vacation this summer to check out these exciting new thrill rides.
1. Outlaw Run – Silver Dollar City, Branson, MO.
Type: Wood-steel hybrid roller coaster
Outlaw Run’s track features three inversions, as well as the steepest drop of any coaster of its type in the world. It stands at 162 feet tall, with the near-vertical first drop plummeting toward the ground below at an 81-degree angle.
Outlaw Run also features a unique 720-degree double barrel roll element, hits a top speed of 68 miles per hour, and boasts 9 “airtime” hills. It is themed to fit in with the overall 1880s-era stylings of the Silver Dollar City theme park.
There are many timeshare rentals in Branson available for a fun, budget-friendly vacation.
2. Full Throttle – Six Flags Magic Mountain, Valencia, CA.
Type: Steel launched roller coaster, magnetic propulsion system
Long billed as the “roller coaster capital of the world”, Six Flags Magic Mountain will bring its total number of coasters up to an incredible 18 with the debut of Full Throttle.
The park promises that the new addition will be the tallest, fastest looping coaster in the world. Full Throttle will feature a record-breaking 160-foot loop. It also boasts a number of other unique elements, including a “top hat” element that spans the other side of the loop, and a total of three launch sections.

3. Antarctica: Empire of the Penguin – SeaWorld Orlando, FL
Type: Dark ride
SeaWorld Orlando’s Antarctica: Empire of the Penguin is considered one of the most unusual and ambitious rides to open at any theme park in recent years. Billed as “the world’s coldest theme park attraction”, it will combine a thrilling dark ride with a world-class animal exhibit.
Antarctica: Empire of the Penguin’s plot follows a Gentoo penguin who leads guests on an adventure through icy waters from a penguin’s viewpoint. Like Mystic Manor, the ride will employ a “trackless” ride system that will enable it to offer a different experience every time, and guests can select one of several “thrill levels.”
At the end of the ride, guests disembark their vehicles for a closer look at the penguins. The new exhibit will house Gentoo, Rockhopper, Adelie and King penguins.
