Once the largest wooden coaster in Florida, it has a 60° 100 ft drop and speeds up to 50 mph. This coaster opened in 2000 and closed in 2011. It is planned to be demolished as soon as next month.

I have always wanted to walk on some abandoned roller coaster tracks.Lovely pictures. I am sad to hear it will be gone so soon.

Always nice to see new things (new for me) around here. Thanks for sharing this!

It operated alongside a "family fun" type park (one of those places with go-karts, lazer tag, mini golf, etc) but it was owned and operated separately. The "family fun" place is still running, but its going to be shut down/demolished soon to make way for the same shopping center that the coaster is being demolished for.

I only got a couple of pics because I was focused on taking video and timelapse, but here they are:

They had high hopes for that coaster when they opened up and it got used lots. Sadly a wooden coaster in wet south florida was not a smart financial idea. The cost to keep it operating and maintained killed it 
*Best Post Ever* any meetups to go to the malt plant? I'll join and be the first one over, so you know I'm not a cop. Also I'll bring beer. *DO NOT MESSAGE ME WITH ISSUES. PLEASE USE CONTACT A MODERATOR* | |

When I say I'm 'clean and sober', it means I've showered and I'm headed to the liquor store. |
