Copperhead Strike, Steel roller coaster in Carowinds, United States.
The Copperhead Strike roller coaster features a double launch system with five inversions across 3,255 feet of steel track in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Opening in March 2019, this Mack Rides creation replaced the former Whitewater Falls attraction and represented the largest investment in Carowinds history.
The ride design incorporates elements of Southern farm life with Granny Byrd's shed and a 1939 Ford DeLuxe-styled train front.
Each of the three trains contains four cars with individual lap bars and seat belts, accommodating sixteen riders through two rows per car.
The first launch accelerates riders from zero to 42 mph in 2.5 seconds, while the second launch increases speed from 35 to 50 mph.
