Wooden Coaster - Fireball

The Wooden Coaster - Fireball is a wooden roller coaster at Happy Valley Shanghai that twists through the park with multiple connected cars pulled by a chain lift system. The train accommodates dozens of riders in a configuration designed for maximum capacity and smooth movement through the track.

This coaster opened in 2009 as China's first wooden roller coaster of this type. It resulted from collaboration between international roller coaster specialists and local construction teams.

Chinese engineers and American designers collaborated on this coaster, blending Western innovation with Eastern craftsmanship in Shanghai's entertainment landscape. This partnership shaped how the park is known for combining international expertise with local execution.

Visitors should prepare for an intense ride experience with steep descents and rapid direction changes throughout the course. Securing loose items and following safety instructions at the station will make the experience more enjoyable.

The coaster features a notably steep drop section that creates a moment of weightlessness for riders during the descent. This element is what many visitors remember most vividly after their ride.
