Big Bad Wolf

Arrow Dynamics built ten suspended roller coaster between 1981 and 1993.  Seven were still operating when I took this picture in 2008.  Only five were left in 2018.  Sadly, these coasters are a vanishing breed.   Here is a list of the suspended rides they built:

• Bat (1981-1983) at Kings Island in Ohio
• XLR-8 (1984-2008) at Six Flags AstroWorld in Texas
• Big Bad Wolf (1984-2009) at Busch Gardens Williamsburg in Virginia
• Iron Dragon (1987-present) at Cedar Point in Ohio
• Ninja (1988-present) at Six Flags Magic Mountain in California
• Vampire (1990-present) at Chessington World of Adventure in the United Kingdom (pictures coming soon)
• Vortex (1991-present) at Canada's Wonderland in Ontario, Canada
• Hayabusa (1992-2005) at Tokyo SummerLand in Japan
• Eagle Fortress (1992-2009) at Everland in South Korea
• Bat (1993-present) at Kings Island in Ohio (formerly Top Gun and Flight Deck)
