The coaster uses an LIM launch to propel the train up the first hill as well as on the main lift midway through the ride. It also became the longest roller coaster in the world to feature an inversion after the vertical loop on Son of Beast at Kings Island was removed in 2006. Materials used to build the attraction included 11,500,000 pounds (5,200,000 kg) of concrete for the footers, 36 miles (58 km) of electric cables, 167 miles (269 km) of conductors and 5,800,000 pounds (2,600,000 kg) of steel. Designed by Werner Stengel and built by Intamin, it is the eighth-longest coaster in the world (and third-longest steel coaster in the United States behind Fury 325 at Carowinds and Millennium Force at Cedar Point), at 6,072 feet (1,851 m) long. Ĭalifornia Screamin' debuted with the park's grand opening on February 8, 2001.
Construction of the attraction began later that year. The steel coaster would also be designed to look like a classic wooden roller coaster.
Themed after the history and culture of California, it would include a steel roller coaster that would feature a linear induction motor (LIM) launch system, a maximum speed of 55 mph (89 km/h), and a vertical loop in the signature shape of Mickey Mouse's head. In October 1998, Disney announced that a new theme park would be built next to Disneyland. The tubes through which the coaster shoots serve two purposes: In addition to concealing the scenes with characters, they enable the coaster to comply with Orange County sound ordinances, projecting the screams of the riders toward the park and away from the rest of the city of Anaheim and neighboring Garden Grove. Its opening coincided with the debut of the newly revamped Pixar Pier section of the park, where the roller coaster is located. At 122 feet high, it is the tallest roller coaster in all Disney resorts.Ĭalifornia Screamin' closed on Januand reopened as the Incredicoaster on June 23, 2018, inspired by the 2004 computer-animated film The Incredibles and its 2018 sequel Incredibles 2.
