Ultra Twister, Steel roller coaster at Nagashima Spa Land, Japan

Ultra Twister is a steel roller coaster with a vertical lift hill reaching about 30 meters, followed by an 85-degree drop and multiple inversions along its 360-meter route. Each train holds six riders across three rows with shoulder harnesses for security during the twisting maneuvers.

The ride opened in 1989 and was relocated within the park in 2012 to a location near Steel Dragon 2000. This move reflected changes in the park's layout over its history.

The ride demonstrates Japanese engineering approach through its tube-track design that combines extreme angles with spinning movements. Visitors notice how the design differs markedly from conventional roller coaster styles.

The ride features sharp twists and intense spinning, so visitors should ensure they understand all safety instructions before boarding. It is wise to secure loose items and check the ride's operating status.

The coaster changed from its original white paint to green track with yellow supports, creating a striking visual contrast with its past. This color transformation is often overlooked by visitors unfamiliar with the ride's earlier appearance.
