Wildcat looping coaster ‘Fønix’ has risen at Fårup Sommerland in Denmark!

Fasten your seatbelt and prepare for a ride in Denmark’s largest, fastest and highest roller coaster with 40m height, 905m length and top speed of 95 kilometers per hour! ‘Fønix’ will be the world’s first roller coaster to introduce a so-called Stall Loop that combines the classic loop with an inversed camelback – providing an experience of zero gravity for 2.5 seconds and exposes its riders to the most so-called airtime, i.e. the experience of weightlessness achieved through drops, loops and twists – with 14 different elements in total.

The key design drivers for Fønix’s track design were pacing and airtime. From the exit of the Stall Loop all the way to the final brake run, the vehicle maintains a break-neck pace leaving no time to catch your breath. The design focusses on rapid-fire direction changes and non- stop pops of airtime. Almost every ride element provides some form of airtime: floater, ejector, side-banked or inverted, where the latter (i.e. the three inversions) are spread strategically throughout the length of the course to create the best possible variety in the experience.

Fønix has been awarded with multiple awards for Best Roller Coaster and a BLOOLOOP INNOVATION AWARD 2022 in the category THRILLS!
