Description

Corkscrew was the first coaster in the world that featured three inversions. A look through the eye of the inversions that give the ride its name gives you a taste of the courage it takes to ride it. You can't miss the iconic blue track and white supports. The red trains add just the right amount of flair with their American colour scheme, inspired by the 1976 US Bicentennial. Buckle up and get ready, because this steel roller coaster knows no mercy.

Hints:
Size restriction: From 1.22 m
Age restriction: -no restriction-

Specialities:

  • First roller coaster with 3 inversions
  • First roller coaster with a pedestrian walkway underneath the inversion
