Mine Blower, Wooden roller coaster in Kissimmee, United States
Mine Blower is a wooden roller coaster at Fun Spot America in Kissimmee, Florida, featuring a long track with sharp turns and two enclosed tunnel sections. The ride runs at high speed for its entire course, putting riders through strong lateral and vertical forces throughout.
The coaster opened in 2017 at Fun Spot America, replacing earlier entertainment facilities that had occupied the same area of the park. Its arrival marked a shift in the park's direction toward offering more dedicated roller coaster experiences.
The name Mine Blower is a play on words, nodding to the mining theme that runs through the ride's design. Riders pass through tunnel sections that reinforce the underground mine feel as the train moves along the wooden structure.
There is a height requirement to ride, so visitors traveling with children should check the details before arriving at the park. Going early in the day tends to mean shorter waits, as lines often build up as the afternoon progresses.
Mine Blower is one of very few wooden coasters in the country to include an inversion located directly above the loading station. Riders go upside down right over the spot where other guests are waiting to board, which makes for an unexpected moment in the middle of the ride.
