Volcano’s Blast Off – Memorable Coaster Moments
On Volcano, riders board the train and get buckled in. The train is slowly dispatched and takes an immediate left. As they finish the left turn a long tunnel lies ahead. The train just creeps along as the riders wonder when they’ll be launched. You see the LIMs overhead and know that it’ll happen any second and then it happens. The acceleration is so raw and powerful. It’s like there’s an angry machine gradually pushing you faster and faster. The launch is nowhere near as immediate as Hypersonic XLC’s was. It’s a bit more gradual, but still very exhilarating.
Relive more memorable coaster moments on rides like Hades, Voyage, and Montu.

I would have to give this a 9 out of 10. My son and I rode it and it is totally different then any coaster around. I think the landscape of the ride really helps it as well. The blast seemed faster to us…probably because of it’s unique design instead of just a straight shot. it is also very smooth and that counts of alot when you have a 10 year old riding. BIG thumbs up to King’s Dominion for this coaster!!!
I love this roller coaster so much its actually my second favorite of all time. It would surpass my first favorite (I305) if it had been longer. The launch on this roller coaster is incredible, absolutely stunning. I love it and I want to go on it again!
Kings Dominion’s roller coasters offer good quality. I like it better than Six Flags Over Georgia!
