Boomerang Coast-To-Coaster is a steel roller coaster of shuttle design currently in use at eight different Six Flags & PARC themeparks. The ride has one train with a capacity of twenty eight riders, two across in each row. When the coaster starts, the train is pulled backwards up the lift hill, then dropped through the loading gate through a cobra roll and then one loop. At the end of this cycle the train is pulled up the lift hill at the end of the track, then released allowing the train to go back through the loops backwards, hence the name of the coaster. Most of these ride have red trains with a teal green track and white support, those named Flashback usually have yellow trains and black tracks. The coaster at Elitch Gardens is fuchsia and yellow. Other individual park variations are common. Because it has a simple shuttle design only one train is ever on the track. This is one of Vekoma's more popular designs because it is relatively inexpensive to build and occupies a small footprint within a park but is considered to be a relatively thrilling ride even though ride time is short and the track design is simple. This is the standard Vekoma Boomerang roller coaster design found at forty three different amusement parks worldwide. It is currently operating at eight different Six Flags & PARC themeparks: SEE ALSO EXTERNAL LINK |
