SeaWorld San Antonio to Open Tallest Family Inverted Coaster in N

One of my favorite topics is thrill rides! SeaWorld San Antonio has just announced a brand-new coaster. The Barracuda Strike will open to the public on Saturday, March 7. What makes the Barracuda Strike so special? It is the tallest inverted family rollercoaster in North America.

A smooth ride experience for the entire family.

The ride begins with a 90-foot lift hill and reaches speeds of up to 44 miles per hour. The ride track is approximately 1,800 feet long and offers a very smooth experience. These combinations make the perfect thrill ride for the entire family. Check out this concept video that gives us a sneak peak.

SeaWorld is not the only theme park expanding in San Antonio.

It also looks like something big is also coming to Fiesta Texas, San Antonio. Thanks to TikTok, we get videos like this showing a massive clearing and construction.

Early reports state a new ride will open in 2027 at Fiesta Texas.

There has already been teasers that have been announced. One of them calling the new ride an "out of this world" attractions. Set to open in 2027 in the "Crackaxle Canyon" section of the park.

As a thrill ride junkie, I can't wait for both of these rides to open.
