| History: | The Wild Wind never opened to the public. It was constructed in the fall of 1999. The g forces measured during testing were considered too extreme for the park's guests. The Wild Wind was removed before the start of the 2000 season. I believe this is a "Wild Wind" model by Interpark and Zamperla was the ride's broker not the manufacturer. Can anyone confirm this? |
