While Phoenix is an airtime machine, Twister is a perfect compliment with it's outstanding laterals. If you're lucky to ride Twister after a rainstorm, it can give Phoenix-like air as well! This is a very unique ride that is a lot of fun.

Fun, but not quite a five-star ride like Phoenix, but certainly a strong 4-star ride.

A little rough, especially when compared to Phoenix. Still a lot of fun. Has to be hit when you're here.

I like the double curves near the station and the tunnel near the end. The stacked lift is real unique. It's an excellent compliment to the Phoenix @ Knoebel's.

This is a very underated ride. A top wood coaster with an amazingly compact footprint and fun ride. The tunnel is especially fun with the cold air.
