About Steel Force

This steel roller coaster was designed and constructed by D.H. Morgan Manufacturing, Inc., La Selva Beach, California in 1997. Its high-speed thrills are accented by two tunnels and a 510-degree helix. Four "camel-backs" give impressive airtime and make the trip back to the station as exciting as the initial 205-foot drop.


Length of track: 5,600 feet

Height of First Drop: 205 feet

Maximum Speed: Approximately 75 m.p.h.

Ride Duration: Approximately 3 minutes.

This is a good ride - loved the first drop but 1x was enough for me. - Stacey C

Pretty good, it's just after the 2nd hill, you basically break your spine! But, good drops, and a lot more speed than expected on the helix! - Eli Katzman

amazing first drop love the air time on the bunny hills10/10 - christian giovannini

Ok Steel Force... Its a good hyper coaster. I find it more enjoyable then magnum at CP because it is more comfortable. The first drop isnt steep enough though so it doesnt get the best thrill rating for me. The helix is powerful and the bunny hills at the end are classic with lots of airtime. The front is a major dissapointment go to the back for the airtime. - jim boyadjis

Absolutely outstanding. Don't leave the park without trying this one! - K P
