Decepticoaster
Decepticoaster is the fastest roller coaster at Universal Studios Beijing. You ride the Autobot Coaster, straight through the enormous Decepticon Driller. That machine processes Energon, but one wrong move and the razor-sharp teeth spring into action.
The concept
Transformers Metrobase is the base of N.E.S.T. Beijing, where humans and Autobots protect the earth together against the Decepticons. According to the park, this setting exists nowhere else in the world. According to rcdb, Decepticoaster was built by Bolliger & Mabillard, one of the best-known coaster manufacturers in the world.
The Experience
The ride starts with a launch: tyres push the train up to speed in one go. According to rcdb you reach about 103 kilometres per hour and dive through seven inversions, including a cobra roll, two loops and two corkscrews. The highest point is more than 37 metres. You sit four abreast, with over-the-shoulder restraints. After about two and a half minutes you roll back into the station.
Discover Decepticoaster
Empty your pockets
At the entrance you walk through a metal detector. Put everything in a locker, or you will have to go back.
Try the test seat
Not sure whether the restraints fit? There is a test seat in front of the entrance.
Go for Express
Decepticoaster is one of the most popular attractions. With Universal Express you wait less.
Visitor information
The minimum height is 1.32 metres. You must be able to sit upright unaided and keep your head against the headrest. Pregnant women and people with heart, back or neck problems may not ride. Loose items are not allowed on the ride. There are lockers at the attraction (possibly for a fee). This attraction is part of Universal Express (sold separately), which lets you use a faster queue.
For true daredevils
Decepticoaster is the most thrilling ride in the park. If you love speed and going upside down, you must not miss this one. Afterwards, catch your breath at Energon Power Station.
