Avatar Airbender Rush

History
The coaster was first announced in September 2004. It would be an Intamin Accelerator coaster with a compressed air launch by S&S Sansei instead of the then-normal Hydraulic launch, going from 0-67 miles per hour in a single second.

The coaster was originally going to be known as simply "Air Rush", but the name was changed after the park manager at the time saw a preview of Nickelodeon's Avatar: The Last Airbender and liked what he saw so it was given an A: TLA theme.

The coaster opened on May 30th, 2005 with only one train in operation as the block zone system was still being worked on, the second train was installed in mid-June 2005.
