Wicked (roller coaster)

Wicked is a Zierer steel launched roller coaster located at Lagoon Amusement Park in Farmington, Utah.

It features a zero-g roll inversion and two linear synchronous motor (LSM) launches, reaching a maximum speed of 55 mph (89 km/h).

[2][3] The ride has been described as "very smooth" and "lack[ing] any jerking or shaking" by Deseret News, which also noted that riders were secured unusually by their ankles and thighs, instead of traditional shoulder or lap restraints.

At this time, the emergency brakes will deploy and the car will enter a slowed descent back into the launch tunnel.

The ride was engineered with incidents like this in mind,[citation needed] so it can be easily reset and relaunched at a greater speed, ensuring that the train will make it over the crest of the hill.
