All guides

Launched coasters

Motors or hydraulics replace or supplement the lift hill for rapid acceleration.

How launches work

LIM, LSM, hydraulic — different ways to shove a train from rest to serious speed.

Linear synchronous motors (LSM)

Timed magnetic pulses pull the train along — precise and common on multi-launch coasters.

Flywheel launches

Store energy in a spinning mass, then dump it into the train in one burst — classic hydraulic acceleration feel.
