California Screamin', Anaheim
Facts and practical information
California Screamin', situated in the bustling city of Anaheim, United States, was an exhilarating roller coaster that once stood as a beacon of thrill within the Disney California Adventure Park. This high-speed attraction was renowned for its classic wooden coaster style, albeit being constructed with modern steel.
The ride launched its passengers from zero to 55 miles per hour in a mere four seconds, setting hearts racing right from the start. With a track length extending to about 6,072 feet, California Screamin' was one of the longest roller coasters in the world during its operation. It featured a series of drops, loops, and banked turns, providing an adrenaline-packed experience with stunning views of the park.
One of the coaster's highlights was its loop-the-loop, a rare find in Disney parks, which added an extra thrill factor for the daring souls who rode it.

For those looking to recapture the magic of California Screamin', the rethemed roller coaster, now known as the Incredicoaster, continues to offer a high-speed experience with a fresh twist inspired by Pixar's "The Incredibles" franchise.
