Tormenta Rampaging Run is a steel dive coaster in the Spain section of Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington, Texas. Bolliger & Mabillard built it, and it opened to the public on July 9, 2026, after longer-than-expected testing delayed a planned June 26 debut. It stands in a new village called Rancho de la Tormenta, on land cleared when the park retired La Vibora and El Diablo in 2024, and its theme is a rampaging bull.

The ride climbs a 309-foot chain lift, holds riders over the edge for three seconds, then drops 285 feet at 95 degrees, beyond vertical. It reaches 87 mph over 4,199 feet of track and turns riders upside down four times, including a 218-foot Immelmann and a 179-foot vertical loop. Each train has three cars seating eight riders across.

The park calls it the first giga dive coaster, meaning a dive coaster more than 300 feet tall, and lists six world records: tallest, fastest and longest dive coaster, tallest vertical loop, highest Immelmann and highest beyond-vertical drop. Riders must be between 48 and 78 inches tall.
