Take a Virtual Ride in the Front Seat of HangTime
The surfing themed roller coaster sends guests up a 150-foot vertical lift hill before coming to a halt once the highest peak is reached, leaving riders suspended at the crest for several seconds at a 60-degree angle, giving the illusion of a disappearing track. Then the train suddenly descends into a beyond-vertical drop, through 2,189 feet of steel track and five gravity-defying inversions. Come ride Knott’s Berry Farm newest roller coaster for an experience like no other.
