- On July 1st, I got out to Hersheypark to ride Wildcat's Revenge. It didn't quite go as planned. I blame Skyrush.

Shoutout to the unsung hero of all this - Chris’ wife who watches the baby so he can live out our fantasy and document it for the world to see. I know that isn’t easy.
Yes it absolutely is a thankless job. She pays herself in Starbucks
@@AirtimeThrillsBro you gotta pay HER in starbucks!
"Is it weird that I'm walking around Hershey by myself, just taunting coasters?" Well, yes. Very much so. But you are one of us.

Airtime Thrills: “Never enough airtime”
Arie Force One: “Hold my beer.”
I love having a coaster TH-camr who is a normal age with kids, bless you and what you do
Wildcats revenge on a 90 degree sunny day is just something else.
yeah he had to have had a slow day
Yeah I rode it opening day and it was NUTS
Rode it today and it was ripping through the layout. No steel vengeance but a very fun ride
@@steveneichhammer8108 that’s what I was thinking. It’s very mid on a like 60-70 degree day but I’ve been there for two like 90 degree days and oh boy. On those days it contends with velocicoaster for my number one spot. If it was more consistent it probably would be my number 1 tbh
I was there and seen him in the park and yes it was running pretty slow compared to a sunny hot day
Great video as usual. Sophie’s blasé attitude kills me 😂😂. She’s a tough critic.
Sophie having over 200 credits is one of those things thats still wild to me. I have a lot of catching up to do!
That's what I just told my husband. I was proud to add 39 credits this month but it only brings me to 109!
@@CoasterFamily6well if we had airtime thrills as our dad I'm sure we would have a few more. Hope he's looking to adopt lol.
I love that Iron Gwazi shirt! (I have the same one 😅) And coincidentally, I wore it yesterday when I was there! 😅
For those of you who have summer plans for Wildcat’s Revenge: Go around 12-2, that’s when the line is usually shorter
Can attest this is true
Will remember this for my return visit since it was closed when I went last week 🥲
having been many times so far this year, i live by this advice
I was there on Tuesday and a few times it was a sub-20 minute wait. There would only be a few people before the lockers. Then again being July 4th looks like I got the good end of that crowd where people would rather be at the beach
Does it matter if I'm going on a Monday?
My rollar coaster goals were last time I went to Hershey Park in July this year were Wildcats Revenge, CandyMonium, and Jolly Rancher Remix. And I rode on all three of these boys.
I can truly appreciate the 4 mile limit to walking to a park for a day of walking.
I actually ride skyrush for the first time and it did not disappoint. I was addicted from the start.
I gotta wonder what the people watching Chris vlog in their cars four miles from the park think about the situation
Nothing but lazy thoughts
How funny that you post a Hershey vlog while I’m at Hershey today
Wildcat's Revenge is my top priority at Hersheypark easily
its so worth it. best coaster in the park and has some insanely aggressive airtime
I couldn't wait to see your reaction to Wildcat's Revenge. Hershey is my home park and I was super hyped when I saw the RMC announcement last year. I had never been on any RMC coasters before now so i have nothing to compare to, but I think it's easily the best coaster in the park. I'll be looking out for your review!
Happy you guys were able to get on Wildcat!! I was there on that Wednesday and it was unfortunately shut down😔 I’ll be back next week though to get my ride in though hopefully!!!
Airtime Thrills and hating Skyrush goes together like Peanut Butter and Jelly
I was at Hershey literally the day before you, unlucky on timing! I did get lucky with Wildcat though, as we were told it wouldn't open for the entire day (after being closed all of the previous 2), but come late afternoon, we saw it running and managed to score the ride. Really enjoyed it, and also loved Candy, Storm Runner, and yes - even ThighCrush
Hope one day our paths cross! :)
I just got lucky and saw Chris and his wife (Sophie and Amy were in the car I guess) at Six Flags St Louis! Super nice and they gave my kids stickers and buttons!
Yep i was notified of its downtime on Friday and saw the park confirmed on Twitter it was reopen. I was relieved. And figured anyone there got extremely lucky
@@CoasterFamily6haha yeah the girls were already packed away in the car at that point
I completely agree with you about sky rush, it’s such a shame the air time gets killed by the restraints, that being said I’m 250lbs, I’m sure everyone’s experience may vary
im only 110 i get crazy airtime but the restraints do kill it
The seat belts just got shortened this season so the stapling is much worse nowadays
@@skyrushyesminderaserno1150It’s not bad though
as a Tennessean I am proud to hear such praises about Lighting Rod. :)
I think that Lightning Racer needs to get more love. I rode it for the first time in years yesterday. Rode in the back seat of the red train. It was hauling and is still pretty smooth. It really surprised me. What a great racing dueling woodie. Hershey Park. Coaster nirvana. Great video! Keep up the good work! My love for coasters began in the summer of 1977 when I got on the Rebel Yell at Kings Dominion. I will never forget the terror of going up that lift hill and looking over to the older guy next to me who said " your gonna love this". I actually thought that I was going to die throughout the ride but I loved it. I have been close to dying ever since that day every summer. I am older now and approaching retirement and had not ridden coasters for a number of years before I decided to get in the car and go to Hershey Park yesterday. It was a beautiful day. I was reminded of the magic that coasters provide. Thanks for giving some love to my response. I look forward to seeing more great videos.
That was a fun vlog one of my favorite videos and entertaining the coaster thanks Chris! The next time you see the Skyrush, (Thighcrush) you might getting expected the risk of downgrade credit…💀
Was just here a few weeks ago And Skyrush was by far my favorite ride in the park! I agree with you on how Hershey got everything right with Wildcat! Lockers and ops were so awesome!
If she thought Wildcat was too much, imagine what she'd say about Steel Vengeance
She actually loved SteVe
@@AirtimeThrills You notice that the trims aren’t as violent?
If I had two hundred and nine credits, Every coaster would be GREAT. -envious coaster fan
Biggest Rivalries:
Yankees vs Red Sox
Michigan vs Ohio State
Bruins vs Habs
Airtime Thrills vs Skyrush
We saw you at strickers! Didnt get a chance to say hi! Hopefully you enjoyed our 2 old woodies lol
I love your videos so much, especially the vlogs. Big respect from England
Sophie’s Devastating Reviews - sounds like a great new segment title! 👍
Aireforce one or Wildcats revenge? Which one did you think was better?
AireForce One
I haven’t done either one but Arieforce looks way better.
Seems like wildcats revenge was overhyped a bit
Definitely AF1,it never has a line
AF1
Wow you were behind us at the entrance. I can see us in the video.
Glad to hear your thoughts on Wildcat's Revenge! I need to get more rides on it and more RMCs in general, right now i have it between Steel Vengeance and Lightning Rod. I think I'm most hyped you popped it above the Phantom for best in the state.
Sophie's review was great!!
Heading there soon. Is Fast Track worth it if you only have 1 day, a weekday nonetheless but I want to make sure I can do everything plus maybe some rerides
After the disappointing start to coaster season I’ve had this year, I can’t wait to go back to Hershey Park. I still have half the credits to get, but I might skip out on Laff Trak since I hear its capacity is horrendous.
Skyrush might take my legs, but it won’t take my dignity
1:22 Thrills, you're making me nervous walking on the wrong side of the road lol
Gotta find them sidewalks
I rode wildcats revenge yesterday. I thought it was far superior to SteVe but I still prefer Candymonium for the best in the park.
I like that wild cat’s doesn’t really have too many filler elements and instead focuses more on having bigger elements that stand out more
Regardless what people think of the coasters at Hersheypark themselves, the park does have a solid lineup all around. Hersheypark is my home park as I only live 10 minutes away so at the start of the video I was like hey that's my neck of the woods.
Chris v Skyrush is my favorite beef on TH-cam.
Will there be one of these videos for Six Flags Darien Lake or Canada’s Wonderland? I’d have to guess no but I figure I ask.
Yes and yes
My home park! These vlogs are amazing, keep it up Airtime Thrills!!
*doesn't sit in the back left wing seat on skyrush*. "it's overated"
You went to Hersheypark on Canada's 156th birthday, lit
Hey airtime thrills! Havent seen you on my recommended feed in a while, and im glad youre back there! Anyways, im going to kings island on a school trip in august, any tips to save as much time as possible and best plan to try and fit as many rides in as possible? I havent been there in like 7-8 years now, and want to expirence everything i can.
Why not uber/lyft especially during park hours?
Damn it missed ya by a day. And Sophie is still ahead in credits!
I’ll never understand the Lightening Racer hate. It’s easily one of the top rides in the park and vastly underrated.
BRUUUH I COULDVE MET U AT HERSHYS PARK I LITERALLY WENT THE SAME DAY 😭😭😭
Thank you for saying what needs to be said.
I just got to Canada’s Wonderland earlier today although I didn’t get on bat, silver streak, and height limits on snoopy 😢
Sophie got me those height limit creds
@@AirtimeThrills unfair advantage I’m to young to have a child
Also and It turns out my 50th Credit was Taxi Jam so yeah
Storm Runner has a little known magic seat. 3rd row from the back. Airtime over the entire top hat.
Lightning Racer counts as 2 credits
I get that. But i dont count it
I had some of the best rides I’ve ever had on a roller coaster on a super hot day full trains end of day rides on wildcat and honestly it’s my number two rn it was insane. I think you would see this ride as s Tier if you got to ride it the entire end of the day.
Also the fact that Sophie has Lightning Rod as her number 1 but "hates launch coasters" is.....something.
I think she hates the anticipation of the launch so the rolling launch not so bad
@AirtimeThrills fair. Also give Hershey credit. None of their coasters were janky
@@TheSonicseannot even wildcat (1996-2022 version)
You were there like 2 days after me...I was there on the day WR was closed all day! This was one of my favorite vlogs of yours (even with the 😂😂Skyrush hatred). I'm so glad you mentioned the locker system on WR. I was so mad when I had to pay for a locker just to go on InvadR at Busch Gardens last year. The WR locker setup is perfect.
SteVe charged me 3 bucks for a locker. Come on now
Nice to see Sophie and you enjoying rides again together!
Wild cat was once one of the worst rides, in the park, now wildcats revenge is one of the best.
You're the king of hot takes for thighcrush 😂
Rude about Skyrush. I have trauma somewhat related to this park and I still love it.
It’s very ironic since I was actually at Hershey today.
Skyrush is my favorite (and my daughter's) favorite ride in the park.
Most people seem to say Wildcat's Revenge is better toward the front, which was surprising to me.
I just feel bad that a child now has more coaster credits than me.
Being a coaster enthusiast just out of collage really puts a hole in your wallet.
Totally agree with Sophie’s thoughts on Fahrenheit. It just doesn’t slap as hard as people say it does! Still a good ride tho.
the titles of your videos are so lengedary haha
Completely agree on Skyrush. Ive tried every seat...morning...late rides...everything. Trying to understand why people absolutely love it and I just dont understand. Its average at best
It's crazy the difference between an RMC cold and anRMC warmed up. CRAZY
Need to add one cred to the count. Lightning Racer counts as 2. 2 completely different tracks.
Dude I went to Hershey park for the first time ever on July 2nd, looks like I just missed you lol
They should add 2 coasters. 1 should be a Vekoma Tilt Coaster thats themed to KitKat, and the 2nd should be a ride thats skyrush but WITHOUT THE KILLER LAPBARS AND VELOCICOASTER LAPBARS!
I used to agree with you about skyrush until i had some incredible rides a few weeks ago. As soon as I got off I thought of the skyrush NOT being the best drop and started cracking up.
Can't wait for the Wildcat's Revenge review, is it better than ArieForce One? No one knows...
Maybe he knows, but I don't (yet)
google says the walk from that insurance place to hershey park was over an hour. i'm tired just thinking about that walk
Airtime thrills try not to hate Skyrush challenge: impossible
The fact you walked 4 miles to get to Hersheypark makes me feel so lazy 😂
And 4 miles back lol
Not Amy mean mugging the camera at 7:33 🤣 . she wanted all that smoke! She's not scared of your fans 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I rode wildcats revenge yesterday. I loved it. It's still not better than Skyrush. I also rode candymonium for the first time, loved the first drop and the powerful floater airtime think it's better than Nitro. Nice video.
You can tell AirtimeThrills is a real one cuz he counts Lightning Racer as one credit.
Nah it’s two, completely different experiences.
as someone who practically lives at hersheypark, ive waited for this for a long time (wildcats revenge >>>>>>> skyrush btw)
Keep taunting Skyrush Chris ... When you go this year to experience it with the new lap bars it'll probably be down for the day just because of all the times you've ridiculed it 😂😂
Also, Thunder always wins from my experience 😂
I love the new skyrush lapbars and I got a ride on lightning where it won. It was really close.
Did Mean Streak to Steel Vengeance qualify for worst in the state to best?
I like how Sophie appreciates long rides. So do I, especially if coasters aren't a walk on. I can see trying out Skyrush in the back in a middle seat, but it's not exactly my biggest priority. Thanks for posting!
I was there (for the first time) the same day lol right after I got my ride on Candymonium (I waited the whole day for the cred the line was insane😭) the rain just started going ham!! I got to Wildcat’s right after it went back up for the day, it was insane
Bro was so dedicated he got the Miccy-D coffee
Buy or Sell: We will see another Zamperla Lightning coaster in the US/Canada before 2026
I feel Sophie on the shoulder to head, I had whole partner into me on a lateral heavy flat ride at my local fair a couple of weeks ago. My ribs still hurt a bit.
We'll see if Skyrush still holds up for me in about a month. Currently my #2 overall, absolutely love that thing. For the level of ejector I experienced last year, I didn't mind the restraints at all. Especially considering that Railblazer, the only other coaster I've experienced that level of ejector on, has some very uncomfortable collars on it. I much prefer the open feeling of Skyrush's restraints personally.
Yes I actually prefer the openness of Skyrush’s restraints. I don’t get why people hate on it.
I take it that you got in your steps that day.
I blame skyrush on all of my problems. Me tripping and falling down the stairs was all skyrushes fault
Bro i was literally at hersheypak the day before you were :(
No idea if it’s even possible but I wonder if intamin would put their new lap bars on Skyrush.
Though personally I love Skyrush and didn’t mind the lapbars, but maybe it’s running slow this year
I rode twice on Monday and three times in April and it's running well to me, smooth and fast. I have had like two meh rides on Skyrush in 10 years of riding it, and they were both on a day when it was running off and on so didn't get a chance to heat up.
That credit face 😂
It was nice meeting you at stickers grove
Why is it all the people who don't appreciate roller coasters get to ride the most.
always love Sophie's reviews
Surprisingly it is much better in the front.
I dare you to take the 40min walk from the closest full time bus stop in Charlotte to Carowinds (it only has 2 peak busses with 2 round trips a day that pass it)
I wanna see a comparison video on which was better AF1 or Wildcats Revenge.
That rain stopped and they opened revenge back up and we got a few laps on it before close and it’s a different ride at night right after rain. I was the one who recognized you getting on great bear
