Morey's Piers

At Morey's Piers & Beachfront Waterparks, it has been operating since 1996 and has 2 trains from the Philadelphia Toboggan Company with 6 cars per train. Riders are arranged 2 across in 2 rows for a total of 24 riders per train.[2] The ride starts by dropping into a tunnel beneath the boardwalk. After exiting the tunnel, the ride climbs up the 110-foot lift hill before dropping 100 feet at a 50-degree-angle, reaching a maximum speed of 50 mph (80 km/h). The ride then goes off the boardwalk and towards the beach.[3] This ride was built over the beach because Morey's Piers ran out of room on the pier. A rather special feature is that the ride lacks drive tires, as the downward slope of the station run is enough to propel the train in the station.[4] This ride is being constantly checked out by inspectors and has its track replaced frequently. This is one of the three 100+ feet coasters at Morey's and the only one that is a hybrid coaster.[5][6] The ride has been retracked by Martin & Vleminckx.[7]
