The ride
Rampage is a wood roller coaster built by Custom Coasters International at Alabama Splash Adventure in Alabama, having opened to the public in 1998. After 28 seasons of operation it remains one of the defining attractions on the Alabama Splash Adventure midway, drawing repeat riders who track every subtle change to its trains, restraints and station soundtrack.
On paper the ride is a serious thrill machine. It climbs 120 ft above the park before pitching forward into its first descent. That opening drop measures 102 ft, long enough to pin riders against their restraints and pull a prolonged moment of weightless airtime over the lap-bar. Trains reach a top speed of 56.0 mph before the first turnaround, where the layout opens up into a sequence of lateral and vertical elements. In total the track stretches 350 ft, giving the experience a distinctly long-form feel rather than the punchy one-and-done character of many modern compact coasters. enthusiast trip-planning resources
Coasters from Custom Coasters International have a recognizable signature in track shaping, train design and the way transitions are paced. Riders familiar with other Custom Coasters International installations will pick up on the same DNA in Rampage's layout, particularly through its station design and the sound profile of the running gear.
Plan to ride Rampage early in the day or during the final hour before park close, when standby waits at Alabama Splash Adventure typically drop. Single-rider lines and early-entry ticketing programs, when available at Alabama Splash Adventure, are usually the fastest ways to get repeat rides on a busy day. broader coaster community archives
