Momonga Standing and Loop Coaster

The Momonga Standing and Loop Coaster features both stand-up and sit-down trains, reaching speeds of 46 miles per hour through a vertical loop and chain lift hill.

The steel coaster operated from 1979 until September 2021, with the stand-up train option introduced in 1982 as one of the first standing roller coasters worldwide.

The name Momonga derives from the Japanese flying squirrel, reflecting the Japanese tradition of incorporating local wildlife into attraction names.

The roller coaster extends 1,380 feet in length and rises 82 feet high, offering separate queues for standing and sitting experiences with twenty-passenger trains.

The station platform moves sideways to connect trains with the track layout, creating a distinct mechanical process for beginning each ride sequence.
