Southern Star originally opened as Frenzoid in 1986. It was removed at the end of 2005 for Boomerang Bay. However, it re-opened in 2007 as Southern Star. The ride is basically a looping pirate ship, similar to Berserker at King's Dominion.

Why they didn't put this in over near the Cobra...would fit the themeing more...miss the themeing of the past, that is what made Carowinds more special than some parks...they tied it into the Carolinas. - SC Todbear

good ride and if you sit on the right side going in the entrance you get a good view of top gun (afterburn) - Brandon Blackwell

Holy crap!!! My dad put my harness down to hard and i was hurting horribly. The lap bar hurt too!! It was a fun ride though. I wish it would go upside down more. - scooby doobydoo
