Specific Type: Free Spin
|
Six Flags Mexico has their first female hero, Wonder Woman. The Wonder Woman Coaster was installed for the 2018 season, and is an S&S Free Spin Model. It is similar to the other Free Spins installed across the chain, some are themed to heros and other to villains. Wonder Woman Coaster will flip you head over heels and deliver a slightly different experience each time you ride.
The riders board one of five cars, each car having a pair of seats on each side facing one another. So, half the riders face forward for only half the ride, then they switch. The cars go up a vertical lift hill with the seats jiggling back and forth on the way up. The cars have “fins” on them that induce movement from Linear Induction Motors(LIMs) on the track. Once the cars make it to the top at 120 feet the adventure begins. The cars negotiates a series on hills where the seats will rock back and forth, but are forced to spin all the way around when induced by the LIMs. This makes the flips smooth and unpredictable. The trains do a raven turn, a greater than 90 degree drop down to the middle layer of track, that features a very similar series of hills with LIMs. If you were facing forward you are now facing backwards or vica versa. Another raven turn brings the car down to the brake run and then it is lowered to the bottom level to swap riders. The ride experience is very different that other free spinning or 4D coasters. Wonder Woman drops off riders back in the station, so tell the truth...It was fun, right? |
