Corkscrew, Steel roller coaster in Playland, Vancouver, Canada

The Corkscrew roller coaster stretches 731 meters in length and reaches heights of 22.9 meters, featuring two complete inversions along its steel track.

Originally operating as Screamer at Boblo Island in Ontario from 1985 to 1993, the coaster was relocated to Playland where it operated until 2018.

The roller coaster gained media attention through its appearances in Final Destination 3 and Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days movies.

Two trains with six cars each transported 24 riders at once, reaching speeds of 64.4 kilometers per hour through the course of the ride.

The coaster incorporated a specialized bayerncurve element in its design, contributing to the technical aspects of its track layout.
