Which rides in Universal go upside down?

I have convinced myself I don't like rollerocasters that go upside down, but I'm not sure if that's actually true or not, so I'm going to test it out in Universal when we go!

Which rides actually go upside down? When I look back on my last trip I don't think we actually went on as many rides as I originally thought, and because you can't see some of them, I'm not sure which one's actually do turn!

I would like answers for both Universal parks please

I think it's just Hulk now, since the refurbs it's a much smoother ride and I would say go for it! RRR feels a bit like you do but it doesn't actually go upside down.

Yup just Hulk now. Rip Ride Rockit does more of a corkscrew motion than a full loop over so that may be better for you?
The Forbidden Journey (HP) one tips you backwards so you are almost upside down, but that isn't a rollercoaster.

You also have Rock N Roller Coaster in Disney

Ah I feel all jittery just thinking about going on the hulk! I feel a bit more reassured now though so maybe I’ll give it a go! I really thought more of them went upside down. For some reason I thought RRR did and so avoided it

Yes, I was on forbidden journey last time and it wasn’t bad at all, so can definitely deal with that!

Hulk only does 7 inversions

Rip Rocket imo feels worse as its only a lap belt but dosnt actually go upside down but its close as without actually doing it

Oh stop! When I get really nervous I feel like my teeth are going to fall out, and that’s how I feel right now 😂 I think I’m going to need to watch some POV videos of these two to see what I’m letting myself in for!

I agree with this. IMO Hulk is a much smoother and less scarier ride the RRR. You don’t even really have time to register that you’re upside down as it goes quickly through it.

I was thinking that! Maybe I could close my eyes for that part and then it’ll be over with quickly
