ArieForce One Thrilling Riders at Fun Spot America Atlanta

Fun Spot America Atlanta made some big moves when they announced the addition of a towering Rocky Mountain Construction roller coaster in late 2021. The ride, to be called ArieForce One, was much (much!) larger than anything offered at Fun Spot America Atlanta, but it was sure to put the park's name on the map. Fast forward to now, and it certainly has!

The ride took a bit longer than expected to open, with construction going on throughout 2022 while enthusiasts mouths hung open, but that disappointment also meant the coaster was ready to go pretty early in 2023. Fast forward to now and ArieForce One is open and as is typical with Rocky Mountain Construction creations, it's billed as a fast, intense and thrilling experience.

Riders encounter a towering 154 foot lift hill that serves as quite a billboard for the amusement park. The steep first drop takes the trains rolling at a smooth 64 miles per hour and up into the ride's first inversion. Soon after the trains soar through the largest zero-g stall in America, another inversion right after the first. From there riders a sent through two more twisting inversions, a nuts-looking outwardly banked turn, a low to the ground helix and a total of 16 moments of airtime. From an enthusiast perspective, ArieForce One is another mega thrill RMC machine, and it sounds like it doesn't let down from the moment it dispatches from the station!

If you've never hear of or been to Fun Spot America Atlanta, the park is only a 30 or so minute drive South of the city proper, so it's quite accessible for those passing through the area. This was a huge investment and step for the development of the park, and if successful I'd wager the first of much more to come.
