Six Flags Fiesta Texas announced that it would team with Skyline Attractions to build a P'Sghetti Bowl Children's Coaster scheduled to open in the summer of 2023.
Six Flags Fiesta Texas president Jeffrey Siebert revealed the twin-tracked attraction would be the park's 12th and 13th roller coasters. The ride features an innovative weld-free track design, which allows for a streamlined fabrication process and a lower price tag.
The yet-to-be-named roller coaster also includes an inclusive train design, capable of seating an adult and child or two children in each row. Riders are restrained by individual T-shaped bars for added comfort and safety.
"This ride is going to be a great addition to the Six Flags Fiesta Texas line-up," Skyline Attractions Director of Structural Engineering Dan Peak said. "It's accessible to younger riders while remaining fun for the whole family. My two young boys love rides and I can't wait to ride it with them when it opens next year."
When completed, the ride will be America's first racing children's coaster, with tracks that span a cumulative 1,124 feet and are as twisted as a bowl of spaghetti, each crossing over and under other segments of track a dozen times during the ride cycle. The two sides can operate simultaneously for racing action or with one side only for limited operation.
The ride will also be the first Skyline Attractions roller coaster to feature the Aurora LED lighting package, which transforms the tracks into a kaleidoscope of lights and colors with a multitude of LED panels. The feature can be used for custom theming, holiday overlays, paid sponsorships, or other displays.
