Canada's Wonderland is Introducing Two New Themed Amusement Park Rides

Along with expanding its play and splash area in 2018, Canada's Wonderland has plans to introduce two new amusement park rides: Lumberjack and Flying Canoes.

Lumberjack takes the form of a thrill ride that boasts two axe-shaped pendulums, which take riders along for a looping, 360-degree experience. As the pendulums reach 75 feet in hight, Canada's Wonderland describes that "Lumberjack will give riders the sensation of an inverted coaster loop."

True to its name, the family-friendly Flying Canoes is an interact ride that stations sets of two in canoe-shaped pods, which can be controlled by riders as they spin around. Along with the expansion of Splash Island, these new amusement park rides will offer thrills and excitement for people of all ages in the next season.
