California Kingdom

California Kingdom (formerly known as Six Flags California Kingdom) is an amusement park located in. It first opened in 1978.

History
In 2009, the park took a huge gamble by buying a Doppelmayr Mountain Glider, which were known for having flawed maintenance, and purchased the ride for only $500,000 with $2 million in shipping the ride from Austria to California, which would take a total of five and a half months to get done, as the coaster traveled throughout Eastern Europe and Asia before the parts finally sailed their final voyage from Port of Osaka to the Port of Long Beach in the September of 2009. Surprisingly, when the ride eventually opened in 2010, it had a LOT less downtime than Vertigo at Walibi Belgium initially had during it's opening.
