Sidewinder, Steel roller coaster in Lakeside, Colorado, US.

The Sidewinder features a complete vertical loop and operates with steel cars that travel through a series of curves along the metal track.

The installation of this roller coaster marked an advancement in theme park engineering, introducing new safety standards for vertical loop rides in Colorado.

Local residents gather at the roller coaster during summer evenings, creating a regular meeting point for thrill-seeking teenagers and families.

The roller coaster maintains a height requirement of 48 inches for riders and operates from March through October, depending on weather conditions.

The track design incorporates a specific angle calculation that allows the cars to complete the vertical loop using only the initial momentum.
