Ricochet, Wild Mouse roller coaster at Kings Dominion, US

The steel track extends 1,312 feet with numerous hairpin switchbacks and steep drops, reaching speeds of 35 miles per hour at Kings Dominion.

The roller coaster, manufactured by Mack Rides, opened to visitors in March 2002 and received a new name, Apple Zapple, during the 2018 renovations.

The design reflects traditional carnival attractions with compact cars that enhance the sensation of hanging over edges during sharp turns.

The coaster accommodates 960 riders per hour in cars arranged with two rows of two seats, requiring riders to meet specific height requirements.

The initial 50-foot plunge differs from typical Wild Mouse layouts, offering an unexpected start before entering the signature tight turn sequence.
