Jimmy Neutron's Atomic Flyer, Suspended steel roller coaster in Nickland, Movie Park Germany, Bottrop, Germany
Jimmy Neutron's Atomic Flyer is a suspended family roller coaster in the Nickland area of Movie Park Germany. Its steel track is 294 meters long and 13 meters high, with a top speed of 47 km/h and a ride time of about 48 seconds. Each train seats 16 riders, and the layout consists of several curving ascents and descents rather than steep drops.
This suspended coaster opened in 2007 as the first of its type to feature a redesigned restraint system from manufacturer Vekoma. The design was created by Stefan Holtman and installed by RCS GmbH.
The coaster is named after the Nickelodeon animated series Jimmy Neutron, about a boy inventor, and stands in the Nickland area of Movie Park Germany. The name and theme tie the ride to that character rather than to an original park creation.
Riders must be at least 130 cm tall; between 95 and 130 cm they may board only when accompanied by an adult. The train seats 16 people and the circuit lasts about 48 seconds. The seat shells are tilted backwards so riders drop into them, and a hydraulically secured lap bar replaces the usual shoulder restraints.
The track is the first delivery of Vekoma's low-cost two-belt rail for suspended family coasters, making the ride a prototype. Its cars have seat shells tilted backwards so riders drop into them, held by a hydraulically secured lap bar instead of the usual shoulder restraints.
