Särkänniemi was planning on removing their Korkkiruuvi (Corkscrew) roller coaster and asked us for potential replacements. It was challenging because we needed to provide a compact roller coaster with marketable features.
We ended up installing a MotoCoaster at their property. It fit the bill because it was a thrill coaster with a launch and vehicles similar to Moto GT cycles. The ride was a huge hit at the park because the experience so much different than anything else at Särkänniemi and the rest of Finland.
The experience started with a launch into a rising turn. From there the vehicle darted back and forth, navigating a series of turns until excited riders stopped in the brakes.
The MotoCoaster system was updated to our Family Thrill Launch Coaster.
