Themeparkfanatic | Mindbender at Six Flags over Georgia @woodencoasterfan | Uploaded August 2014 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
This is the Mindbender at Six Flags over Georgia and it is a classic coaster and it is listed as a Landmark coaster by ACE (American Coaster Enthusiasts). It was given that title as it was the first coaster that was built that used the four sided tube truss track system that integrated the tracks allowing for fewer track supports. You can go to their website at Aceonline.org to learn more about this and other coasters and to possibly join their club. I myself am a member of the FLCC (Florida Coaster Club) and you can go to our website at Floridacoasterclub.com for more info.
This coaster was built by the legendary Anton Schwarzkopf and designed by Werner Stengel's firm Ing.-Buro Stengel GmbH and it opened on March 31, 1978. This Terrain coaster which means it follows the terrain in which it is built thus making it very hard to move to another park without some significant alterations to the coaster or the ground. According to RCDB.com it is 3,253 feet long, 80 feet high, has two inversions, a top speed of 50 mph, and a ride time of about two minutes and thirty three seconds. The ride also uses individually ratcheting lap bars instead of the over the shoulder restraints.
