Sierra Sidewinder is a steel spinning roller coaster located in the Camp Snoopy section of Knott's Berry Farm.

At the ACE Halloween Haunt event for the Southern California Region of American Coaster Enthusiasts in 2006, Jack Falfas, COO of Cedar Fair, hinted at something different in the coming year.

Construction began shortly after the announcement with the removal of the Paddlewheel Boat Ride and relocation of Woodstock's Air Mail.

[1] Mack had previously built the spinning coaster, Euro-Mir, at its home park in Rust, Germany, but the car's rotation on that ride is controlled by a motor.

The on-ride video recording that was present on the trains when the ride opened was removed as of the 2011 season.
