Sierra Sidewinder

Roller coaster
Minimum height to ride: 42 inches

Description

A new twist on traditional roller coasters that not only offers speed, but spin! Each of the four cars will take riders through a series of nose-dives, banks, dips, and turns at a speed of 37 mph while continually rotating on its axis!

One of the best family coasters I have been on. It is marketed as a spinning coaster but the spinning is usually not any worse than what you would find on a river rapids ride. - AJ Hummel

A junior-coaster that proves even adults can enjoy it too. Very thrilling for its unexpected twist along the track. Good job Knott's!! - Adriel Tjokrosaputro

It was pretty fun but I would skip it if the line was too long. - Chloe !

A nice addition to Knott's--a solid ride that the whole family can enjoy (and it fits in well with Camp Snoopy). - Chuck Campbell
