Hakugei, Steel roller coaster in Nagashima Spa Land, Kuwana, Japan

The Hakugei roller coaster stretches 1,530 meters in length and reaches a height of 55 meters at Nagashima Spa Land entertainment complex.

The structure replaced the former White Cyclone wooden roller coaster in 2019, marking the first Rocky Mountain Construction installation in Asia.

The name Hakugei, meaning White Whale in Japanese, draws inspiration from the literary masterwork Moby Dick by Herman Melville.

Three trains with six cars each transport riders through three inversions and multiple hills, reaching speeds of 107 kilometers per hour.

The combination of wooden support structure and steel track creates a design that incorporates an 80-degree vertical drop and generates 4G forces.
