Xtreme SkyflyerThree Breathtaking Experiences in One Ride

Xtreme Skyflyer

Ever wonder what it’s like to fly like a bird – at extreme speeds? Xtreme Skyflyer gives you the experiences of hang gliding, skydiving and swinging – all in the same ride. After you get strapped into the harness – face down, mind you – a lift cable elevates you to a peak of 154 feet above the ground. At the top, the rider operator will instruct you to pull the cord. Because you pull the ripcord yourself, you’re in control, right? Um, no. Not, really. The second you rip the cord, gravity kicks in and you free fall at speeds up to 50 miles per hour down, down, down toward the earth, skimming it by mere feet. You then swing back and forth until it’s all over. Whew! This is a once-in-a-lifetime experience you’ll never forget.

Xtreme Skyflyer is not included with park admission; a separate fee is required to experience this heart-thumping attraction.

The Ride

The giant arch that riders swing from is a site for miles around and serves as an anchor for riders in groups of one, two or three are locked into their safety harnesses and lifted higher than nearby roller coasters. The slow pull to the top accentuates the drama about to unfold. Once at the top, one of the lucky riders must pull the cord to initiate the dynamic rush. The ride experience has a terrifying initial freefall drop before the pendulum effect kicks in.

Following the gravity-defying ascent on the other side, guests take in a few more casual swings before being lowered back to earth.
