SeaWorld San Antonio Debuts Texas Stingray

SeaWorld San Antonio has introduced one of the first NEW attractions to open in America, the Texas Stingray. From Great Coasters International, it is the tallest, fastest, and longest wooden roller coaster in Texas.

 

Everything is bigger in Texas, and Texas Stingray is no exception. Riders face an initial 100-foot drop at a 57º angle, reaching speeds up to 55 mph (89 kph) over 3,379 feet (1,030 m) of track. Sixteen gravity defying airtime moments and a 100-foot (30 m) tunnel are just some of the other features this ride offers.

 

“We are really pleased that guests to SeaWorld San Antonio can experience this record-breaking thrill coaster so early in the 2020 season, giving them more reasons to visit the park again and again,” explained Byron Surrett, San Antonio Park President. “Texas Stingray is one of the best new coasters in the world and we’re excited to have our first wooden roller coaster join our portfolio of unique ride experiences here in San Antonio.”
