Overview
The Cross Lake Vertical Roller Coaster is a high-thrill ride built for parks that need a strong draw without a large land take. It combines a vertical lift, a 35.9m track height and a top speed of 25.4m/s (91.4km/h) in a footprint of 195 x 45m. The ride runs three trains, each seating nine riders, with a cycle time of about 110 seconds. It suits park developers and investors targeting adult and teen visitors who want a compact coaster with clear operational planning.
Design and build
The coaster is designed to the standards required by your market, confirmed per project. The vertical lift raises the train at 1.92m/s to the high point, then releases it into the layout. The track is 750m long and the structure is engineered for a 20-year design service life. The train capacity is nine riders per train, including adults and children at least 1.4m tall. Three trains allow one to load while others run, which supports steady throughput. The installed power is 273 kVA. We do not disclose proprietary engineering details such as steel grades or control system brands; these are shared only as needed for project planning.
Site and installation
The ride requires a clear area of 195 x 45m. This footprint includes the station, lift, layout and maintenance access. Site preparation, foundation design and utility connections are confirmed per project based on local ground conditions and your market's standards. The 273 kVA installed power should be considered in the park's electrical planning. Installation is staged: foundation and anchor work, track and support erection, train placement, then electrical and control commissioning. We provide assembly documentation and can arrange supervision. Local labor and lifting equipment are typically sourced by the buyer, with our team guiding critical steps.
Operating notes
Riders must be adults or children at least 1.4m tall. Each train seats nine. With three trains and a cycle of about 110 seconds, the ride can maintain a regular dispatch pattern. Daily checks should cover the lift, track, trains and restraint systems before opening. The 20-year design service life assumes adherence to the maintenance schedule and operating limits. Spare parts planning and staff training are part of the handover. The ride is designed to the standards required by your market, confirmed per project. We recommend a maintenance bay within the footprint for daily inspections and minor servicing.
