Texas Stingray, Wooden roller coaster at SeaWorld San Antonio, United States

Texas Stingray is a wooden roller coaster at SeaWorld San Antonio with steel supports, built on a plot between the Shamu Theater and the Rio Loco rapids ride. Its 96-foot lift hill leads to a 100-foot straight first drop, then curving dives and airtime hills over 3,379 feet of ipe-wood track, reaching 55 mph.

Planning for Texas Stingray began in 2017, and a trademark filing under the name "Abyss" was reported in April 2019, when land clearing started across from the 2019 attractions. The coaster was announced on September 12, 2019, as Texas's tallest, fastest and longest wooden coaster. It opened to the public on February 29, 2020, after media and season-pass previews, then closed within weeks for the COVID-19 pandemic and reopened with limited park operation on June 11, 2020.

Signs in the queue and around the ride, made with the Harte Research Institute for Gulf of Mexico Studies, describe stingrays of the Texas Gulf and how people connect to the ocean. Five percent of Texas Stingray merchandise sales goes to the institute. The trains' winged car design refers to SeaWorld's sea creatures.

Texas Stingray stands on a previously undeveloped plot between the Shamu Theater and the Rio Loco rapids ride, so use that pair of landmarks to find the entrance. The queue holds signage on Gulf of Mexico stingrays produced with the Harte Research Institute. The train runs about 1:40 to 1:50 from station release to brake.

The coaster's construction uses a specific type of wood chosen for its strength and longevity, setting it apart from traditional roller coaster materials. This material selection helps ensure the ride remains safe and functional for many years.
