Steel Taipan, Steel roller coaster at Dreamworld in Coomera, Australia
The Steel Taipan stretches 1200 meters in length, rises 39 meters high, and reaches speeds of 105 kilometers per hour through four inversions.
Opening in December 2021, this 32-million-dollar attraction replaced the Thunder River Rapids Ride at the Gold Rush Country section of Dreamworld.
The ride takes its name from the venomous Taipan snakes native to Australia, incorporating local wildlife elements into the theme park experience.
The roller coaster accommodates 820 riders per hour with two trains operating simultaneously, including regular seats and a spinning car in the last row.
Steel Taipan features a triple launch system with forward and backward motions, making it the first of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere.
