Renegade is a wood roller coaster under construction at Valleyfair! in Shakopee, Minnesota. Designed by Great Coasters International, it is a combination of an Out and back roller coaster and a Twister roller coaster
When completed, Renegade will stand 104 feet tall with a first hill and ride maximum drop of 91 feet at a maximum speed of 52 mph. Its track length will be 3,113 feet long resulting in a ride time of approximately two minutes and having a price tag of about $6.5 million. Two trains, consisting of 12 - 2 passenger cars, will accommodate 850 riders per hour.
Two features of this coaster never seen before are the unique first drop and a high speed station fly-by. The first hill of this new wooden coaster features an S-Shaped drop. The coaster initially goes down in one direction and half-way though twists in the opposite direction. Before the train comes back to the station it does a final high speed fly-by the loading station.
Renegade is designed by Great Coasters International, Inc. (GCII) of Sunbury, Pennsylvania, and is Valleyfair!'s seventh roller coaster.
