Six Flags Magic Mountain made the exciting announcement today that Wonder Woman Flight of Courage will be joining the park as its 20th roller coaster in 2022.  The park's lineup of 20 roller coasters makes Six Flags Magic Mountain have more roller coasters than any other theme park in the world.  Wonder Woman Flight of Courage will be the tallest and longest single-rail coaster on the planet, and will be manufactured by Rocky Mountain Construction.

Wonder Woman Flight of Courage will start with a lift hill of 131 feet into the sky, then send the trains down a 87 degree first drop - just three degrees from vertical - at speed of up to 58 miles per hour.  The coaster's layout, which resembles sister ride The Jersey Devil Coaster at Six Flags Great Adventure, also features three inversions: a 180 degree stall, a raven dive and a zero-gravity roll.  The ride will offer a total of 3,300 feet of monorail style track and four, 12 passenger trains.

The coaster will be located within the six acre DC Universe themed section of the park, which is also being expanded, renovated and improved.  DC Universe will also see the addition of a new "innovative restaurant and bar experience" along with retail locations offering visitors exclusive DC branded merchandise.

Wonder Woman Flight of Courage will feature the legacy of Wonder Woman through a queue that is influenced by Greek architecture and the "hidden island of Themyscira."  Featuring tropical landscaping, riders "will be immersed in the story of her life and how she obtained her super powers.  Riders will join forces with Wonder Woman in the fight for truth, justice, and equality, to embark on an incredible journey of heroic feats, propelling through dives, banks, rolls, and turns designed to challenge the bravest of thrill seekers."

“This is an historic milestone for our park as we introduce the latest addition to our unrivaled coaster dynasty, Wonder Woman Flight of Courage.  Not only is this a record-breaking single-rail coaster, it brings Six Flags Magic Mountain’s coaster count to an unprecedented twenty, the most in the world,” said Park President Don McCoy. “Our partnership with Warner Bros. Themed Entertainment makes this accomplishment even more exciting, as we integrate the legacy of an iconic DC Super Hero into the theming of the ride.  Additionally, we are creating a more innovative guest experience by redesigning one of our most popular areas, DC Universe, which will become the home of Wonder Woman Flight of Courage,” added McCoy.
