Everyone loves a thrilling ride on a roller coaster. This class will go into some the weird and strange coasters found throughout the world. From unique ride systems, home built coasters, to bizarre prototypes, there are many different rides to discover. Along the way we will learn more background about some of these strange rides and how they came about, and watch video and photographs of these fun rides. The class will be a fast paced multimedia lecture format with lots of opportunity to interact and discuss these crazy rides. 

Some of the rides we will talk about:

La Inversa - Aqua Lakos
Looping at Park Saint Paul
Dog-Fart Roller Coaster at BonBon Land
Los Simpson at Holiday World
Pipeline Express at Putt n Pond speed park
Crystal Beach Cyclone 
Roller Ball
Tower Coaster
Queen Bee by Pinfari

Time Traveler at Silver Dollar City
Hagrid’s Motorbike Adventure at Islands of Adventure 
Ultra Twister
High Roller at the Stratosphere Tower 
Swinging Coaster

Even if your child is more of a watcher of coasters than a rider, there will be plenty of interesting things to discover. So climb aboard, but keep your hands and arms inside your zoom window at all times!

Teacher expertise and credentials
I am a theme park enthusiast who has visited many theme parks and ridden dozens of roller coasters. I have written articles about theme parks for websites, as well as worked at several theme parks.  My favorite roller coaster is Lightning Rod at Dollywood, but it’s a tough call cause I love so many.
