PROWLER

Height Requirement: 48"

Deep in the woods of Worlds of Fun a dangerous predator lurks, ready to shred those fighting to escape the claws of the PROWLER roller coaster. Worlds of Fun guests become prey to PROWLER, a beast of a wooden coaster tangled within the park’s forested terrain. The two-and-a-half minute high speed chase begins with the ride’s only feature above the trees’ cover, a swooping 85 foot plummet into a ravine. After the spiral plunge, the train rips through a seemingly endless amount of high speed hills and sharply banked turns that hug the wooded land below. Riders grasped in the clutches of PROWLER carve a path with powerful but smooth changes of direction, speed, and elevation. Prowler is an $8 million investment and is located in the Africa section of the park near the Zulu thrill ride. The classic wood structure blends through a forest of unique terrain, creating a total elevation change of 102 feet throughout the course of the 3,074 foot ride. PROWLER is custom designed and built for the topography of Worlds of Fun by Great Coasters International, Inc. (GCI) of Sunbury, Pennsylvania. The adventure begins when riders board one of two custom 12 row, 24 passenger GCI Millennium Flyer trains. These extremely comfortable trains feature a metallic blue, green, and copper color scheme with black seats and accommodate approximately 850 riders per hour.
