Fly with the man of steel at Six Flags America on this steel roller coaster that is fitting for a superhero. Superman Ride of Steel climbs a 197-foot lift hill and then drops 205-feet at a stomach wrenching 70-degree angle where you'll find yourself flying like Superman at 73 miles-per-hour as you encounter multiple pops of airtime on repetitive hills and drops. The "out and back" layout on this hypercoaster is just over a mile long.
