Supreme Scream

Knott's Berry Farm

Last Update: January 7, 2013



There you are staring out at beautiful California cityscape, rising on a three-legged tower. Twenty seconds into the ride and it stops at the top. 5 seconds later, prepare to scream. Supreme Scream, that is. The S&S Sports Power-built tower is 254 feet to the top and a high speed of 55 miles per hour. The total tower height is 325 feet tall and each tower is 312 feet taller. It was the first new, major thrill ride in 8 years since the park’s Boomerang opened. It is the tallest standing structure in Orange County! It evens tops the landmark Sky Tower at the park by 75 feet! It stole away the title of tallest freefall tower from it’s sister park, Cedar Point’s Power Tower. The trains hold 12 people each and can hold 48 people all together. As you ride down the tower, you hit the bottom and jolt right back to the top of the tower for a second free fall. After the second free fall, you make a couple of small jumps and then the awesome ride is over. It is the world's tallest drop ! tower and is located at Knott's Berry Farm in Buena Park, California. You experience 4 G's in 2 seconds and can see all of Knott's and the surrounding cityscape.

The ride is an awesome drop tower and the largest in the Cedar Fair family of parks including Worlds of Fun in Kansas City, Missouri, Michigan's Adventure in Muskegon, Michigan, Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio, Dorney Park in Allentown, Pennsylvania, and Valleyfair in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Cedar Fair family has some the best coasters and thrill rides in the world. Some say you can see all of LA and Disneyland at the top. Knott's Berry Farm was a small park until Cedar Fair bought it. Almost all of the Cedar Fair parks have Towers except Michigan’s Adventure. The ride is even taller than the park's top attraction, Xcelerator. The park itself is pretty cool and has some awesome rides including GhostRider, and Xcelerator. If you are ever in Los Angeles, make sure to visit Knott's Berry Farm and ride Supreme Scream!
