EG's Sidewinder?

[christianscoasters]

Does anyone know what's going on with Elitch Gardens' Sidewinder? It isn't listed on the parks website. I remember being there a lot and it was only open once. It was the best ride there. And a good ride all by itself. I'm only wondering cause I'm going to EG in a couple of weeks.

 

BTW. It has had a lot of down-time, so maybe they're like Great Adventure, gettin rid of chiller.

 

EDIT: I contacted the park via email, and here's what they had to say:

 

Thank you for contacting Elitch Gardens . The Sidewinder is still available at Elitch Gardens , but thank you for pointing out that it isn’t on the website! It is definitely still here so don’t worry. I will also contact our website designer and ask him to put it under the thrill rides, since it is clearly missing. Thank you for bringing it to our attention and we look forward to seeing you here at Elitch Gardens !

SFEG seems to have a very nice customer service set-up. Good for them!

 

Also, why is the ride called Sidewinder if it doesn't even turn? It should be called the "Nonwinder".

I LOVE Arrow shuttle loops! It's my second one. I'm still laughing at how they forgot to put the best coaster on their website!
