About Wicked Twister

★ World's tallest & fastest twisted impulse-shuttle coaster at opening (2002)

Wicked Twister was a launched steel roller coaster at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio, USA. It opened in 2002 and closed in 2021. The ride stood 215 feet tall, dropped 215 feet and reached 72 mph over 1,198 feet of track.

Launched forward and backward between two twisting towers, Wicked Twister sent riders up a 215-foot spiral spike on each end, a record-setting shuttle-coaster format when it opened.

Field note: removed in 2021 after nearly two decades to make room for other attractions.
