Description
The California Flag and the American flag fly at the top of the Giant Dipper roller coaster in Santa Cruz California. This ride is the main attraction at the Santa Cruz Boardwalk. Built in 1924, it is one of the few wooden roller coasters still in existence. It tops out at 7 stories and reaches speeds up to 55 mph. Every two hours the structure is walked and inspected for safety. The roller coaster is called a double out and back roller coaster, and is on the National Historical Register.
