Spinning Dragons, Steel roller coaster at Worlds of Fun in Kansas City, Missouri, US
The Gerstlauer-manufactured Spinning Dragons features a 54-foot height, reaches speeds of 31 mph, and extends across 1,345 feet of track.
Spinning Dragons opened on April 17, 2004, replacing the former Orient Express attraction following an investment of four million dollars.
The installation demonstrates the evolution of modern roller coaster design, introducing spinning car mechanisms that create different experiences for each ride.
Each car accommodates four riders arranged in two rows of two, with multiple cars operating simultaneously to maintain steady visitor flow.
The coaster's design excludes inversions but incorporates a 50-degree drop angle and spinning mechanisms that generate varying sensations throughout the course.
