Giant Skyrocket was a wooden roller coaster designed and built by Audley Ingersoll in 1924 for the now defunct Luna Park in Houston, Texas.

It was later relocated to Houston's Playland Park with involvement by John A. Miller and H. S. Smith before ultimately being closed in the early 1960s.

The roller coaster was designed and fabricated at Lake Contrary Amusement Park in 1924 in St. Joseph, Missouri by Ingersoll before being shipped to Houston for assembly and construction.

It is known that John A. Miller, a notable roller coaster designer, died in Houston in 1941 while working on this project.

This portion of land had been sold by Playland Park and a new commercial building was constructed at what would become 2525 Murworth Drive.

Built during the original Golden Era of wooden coaster design, Giant Skyrocket is one of the few that survived well beyond the Great Depression, albeit in a shortened form at a new location.
