Crystal Beach Cyclone, Wooden roller coaster in Crystal Beach, Ontario, Canada

Crystal Beach Cyclone was a wooden roller coaster with steel support structure and wooden tracks that dominated the amusement park landscape. The ride took passengers through steep drops and spirals that created intense physical sensations.

The coaster opened in 1927 as an early example of this type of wooden roller coaster design. It became a signature attraction that defined the park's identity throughout the following decades.

The coaster attracted 75,000 visitors on its first day and became particularly popular among servicemen during World War II at Crystal Beach.

The path through the coaster was straightforward and easy to follow, with clear sightlines for onlookers. Visitors should expect strong physical forces and sensations during the brief ride.

The ride generated forces exceeding 4 Gs, causing passengers to shift positions during the 40-second journey through steep drops and spirals.
