What a ride: Wooden roller coasters
By Vector & Ink • February 10, 2014
Mt. Olympus has been known to do some incredible things with wooden roller coaster, but Hades 360 is in a whole new league! The first of its kind, Hades 360 is a wooden rollercoaster that goes upside down before plummeting into an underground tunnel. The engineering of this coaster was considered quite a feat, and those visiting the Dells aren’t the only ones amazed. Relying heavily on concrete and steel, China does not use timber for construction so things built of wood are a rarity for them; especially something as impressive as Hades 360.

The building of Hades 360 was as unique as the coaster itself and quite a sight to see! You can watch the magic of the engineering and architecture genius required to build Hades 360
