SooperDooperLooper is a Schwarzkopf sit-down roller coaster located at Hersheypark in Hershey, Pennsylvania. It opened as the second modern roller coaster to feature a vertical loop, as Revolution at Six Flags Magic Mountain opened a few months earlier in 1976.

The ride was designed by Anton Schwarzkopf and build by Intamin AG. The vertical loop uses a triangular lattice of steel tubes.[1] The only other roller coasters that use this support type are Revolution, Golden Loop at Gold Reef City, Cliff Hanger at Ghost Town in the Sky, and Katapul at Hopi Hari.

Design[]
