On Morey's Piers' "Surfside Pier":
Take an exhilarating ride on this custom designed Suspended Looping Coaster manufactured by Vekoma International of the Netherlands. Installed in 1995, this intimidating maze of over 2,100 twisted feet of steel will take you high over Raging Waters waterpark, through a rollover, sidewinder, and double spin, at speeds of up to 50 MPH! Must be 52” tall to ride. Maximum height of 79”. Loose articles such as cell phones, change, keys, etc MUST be left with a non-rider. Due to the design of the restraint system, large framed guests may not be permitted to ride. Further restrictions posted at the ride entrance.

The ride received new trains with vest restraints and was completely re-tracked in 2017, making for a considerably smoother ride.
