Dreamworld’s new roller coaster Steel Taipan is a 1.2km ride that reaches a top speed of 105km/h, delivers a G-force of 3.8 and features 4 inversions.

It is the first triple launch roller coaster in the Southern Hemisphere, based on the award-winning Blue Fire at Europa-Park, with some new additions.

The new roller coaster was manufactured by MACK Rides. It features a stall and twisted half pipe at one end of the launch section, and the world’s first spinning seats at the rear of the train.

Luna Park Sydney will re-open on June 26 following a $30 million upgrade including the introduction of 8 new rides.

Additions to the park include a 30-metre high 360° thrill ride, a family roller coaster and 6 children’s rides. A total of 62 shipping containers from various ride manufacturers including Intamin, Gerstlauer and Zamperla ensured the safe arrival of all the rides.

The new multi-launch roller coaster, the Big Dipper, will open in December.
