Continuing Cedar Point's tradition of breaking world records is Wicked Twister, another great addition to the park's unmatched collection of 68 rides, including 16 roller coasters.

Located along the shore of Lake Erie, next to the Giant Wheel, Wicked Twister is the tallest and fastest "double-twisting" impulse roller coaster ever created. This steel giant is comprised of a U-shaped track with the ends reaching 215 feet into the air and is powered by a linear induction motor. Riders sit two abreast in specially designed seats suspended from the track above. Then, without warning, Wicked Twister launches riders forward out of the station and up a 90-degree, twisting steel track. Once the train slows to a stop, it streaks back down the structure and into the station before being launched backward up another twisting track. The train races up and down the track a total of five times at an amazing top speed of 72 mph! But that is not all. Each tower twists 450 degrees, providing one of the most unique ride experiences ever.

In its first five seasons, Wicked Twister gave 5,149,879 guests another reason to scream at Cedar Point. Guests must be at least 52 inches tall to ride Wicked Twister.
