Twister, Wooden roller coaster at Knoebels Amusement Resort in Pennsylvania, United States
Twister is a wooden roller coaster at Knoebels Amusement Resort in Pennsylvania that takes riders through a complex arrangement of criss-crossing sections and sharp turns. The track weaves back and forth with multiple lift hills that create an intense and varied ride experience.
The coaster opened in 1999 and was designed based on a predecessor that operated at a different amusement park. This adaptation brought a proven ride concept to Knoebels for visitors to enjoy.
The first ride auction raised $8,625 for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, marking the beginning of this attraction's connection to community support.
The ride requires physical fitness and stability as the numerous turns and transitions are intense. Visitors should secure loose items and be prepared for a vigorous experience.
The coaster features a double helix pattern that wraps around the station, creating a visually striking structure. One lift hill is positioned directly above another, allowing riders to see other trains during their own journey.
