Canada's Wonderland is set to add two new rides to its arsenal of fun, including the Tundra Twister and Snoopy's Racing Railway for children.

Officials with the Vaughan amusement park said the Tundra Twister, a '360--degree spinning swing ride', is the only one of its kind in the world during the announcement of both rides Aug. 11.

"Soar high above Frontier Canada on Tundra Twister, a giant looping ride with rotating gondola arms that will have guests spinning, twisting and twirling 360--degrees, upside--down, at heights of 47 metres and speeds of 75 km/h," the press release announced. "This mechanical marvel is the only attraction of its kind in the world and promises a unique thrill experience unlike any other."

As for the Snoopy ride, the amusement park said it stands out for children because of its sheer speed, accelerating from zero to 50 km/h in a matter of seconds.

“We’re committed to providing exciting experiences for guests of all ages, and these two attractions are unique additions for thrill seekers and families alike,” said Norm Pirtovshek, general manager at Canada’s Wonderland. “The Tundra Twister will be a sight to behold, swinging and spinning guests high above the midway."

The additions follow the park's latest ride, the Yukon Striker that was added in May 2019.
