Twin Spiral (Carwardine Colony)

Twin Spiral is a roller coaster at Carwardine Colony. It is a near-to-exact clone of Wicked Twister.

History
The ride was officially announced on September 27th, 2003.

On September 29th, 2003, the first parts of the roller coaster have arrived.

On October 26th, 2003, vertical construction began.

On December 19th, 2003, the rear spike was topped off.

On December 27th, 2003, the front spike was now half complete.

On February 28th, 2004, the front spike was topped off.

On March 15th, 2004, testing began on the coaster.

On March 20th, 2004, the first employees rode the coaster.

On May 31st, 2004, the ride finally opened to the public.

For the first season, the ride had tons of downtime, with Intamin staff positioned outside the attraction at all times, and a basketball court put in the employee room to entertain employees during extended downtime.

By 2005, the ride had been fixed to the point where it has less downtime than even it's sister - Wicked Twister.

In 2006, the ride gained a custom spiral holding brake from Intamin, the ride, now with the tagline "Twin Spiral - More Hangtime!", reopened on time for opening day 2006.

Starting in the 2007 season, the ride would alternate between having the holding brake on and off.

In the 2010 season, the ride gained a "rave" theme to tie in with its new sponsorship from EDM label Astralwerks, along with a new area loop made up of EDM tracks. The theme remains even after the sponsorship switched to T2 in 2015, who remains its current sponsor.

For the 2022 season, the ride was repainted.

Ride
This ride is very similar to Wicked Twister at Cedar Point, but with green track and orange supports.
