dbo:abstract | Der New Texas Giant im Freizeitpark Six Flags Over Texas (Arlington, Texas, USA) ist eine Achterbahn des Herstellers Dinn Corporation, die am 17. März 1990 als Texas Giant eröffnet wurde. Sie wurde von Curtis D. Summers konstruiert. Zum Zeitpunkt ihrer Eröffnung war sie die höchste Holzachterbahn der Welt. Am 1. November 2009 wurde sie geschlossen und vom neuen Unternehmen Rocky Mountain Construction umgebaut und war die erste Achterbahn des Herstellers. Die Schienen, welche ursprünglich aus Holz waren, wurden durch Stahlschienen ersetzt. Dadurch wurde sie aus einer Holzachterbahn zu einer Hybrid-Stahlachterbahn mit Holzstruktur. Das Layout wurde bei dem Umbau stark verändert und beinhaltet nun Elemente welche auf einer traditionellen Holzachterbahn nicht möglich wären. Auch wurde die Neigung der ersten Abfahrt, welche vorher 53° betrug auf 79° erhöht, sowie die Höhe der Bahn um 3 m erhöht. Sie wurde am 22. April 2011 unter dem Namen New Texas Giant wieder geöffnet. (de) New Texas Giant is a steel roller coaster located at Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington, Texas. It originally opened as Texas Giant, which was the tallest wooden roller coaster in the world when it debuted in 1990. Manufactured by Dinn Corporation and designed by Curtis D. Summers, Texas Giant operated for nearly two decades and was ranked in Amusement Today magazine's annual Golden Ticket Awards as the best roller coaster in 1998 and 1999. The ride's popularity declined as it gained a negative reputation for its increasing roughness. Texas Giant closed in 2009 and underwent an 18-month refurbishment by Rocky Mountain Construction (RMC). It reemerged as New Texas Giant in 2011. Much of the original wooden structure was kept, but the wooden track was replaced with steel using RMC's I-Box track technology. The renovated coaster saw an increase in height from 143 to 153 feet (44 to 47 m) and drop length from 137 to 147 feet (42 to 45 m), as well as a steeper drop angle of 79°. New Texas Giant also features multiple banked turns up to an angle of 115°. The renovated coaster was well-received, winning Best New Ride in the 2011 Golden Ticket Awards and ranking highly in industry polls. A fatal incident that occurred on July 19, 2013, resulted in modifications to the ride's restraint system.

Uma das várias montanhas-russas de madeira de grandes dimensões, construída no tempo, isto é apenas uma, que continua a executar bem. Para construir esse monstro, empreiteiros utilizaram 900.000 pés cúbicos de madeira serrada, derramaram 1.220 pilares de concreto, martelaram 10 toneladas de pregos e parafusos de rosca, cerca de 81.370 no total. O custo total estimado para a construção da Texas Giant era de cinco milhões e meio de dólares. Desde sua estréia em 17 de março de 1990, Texas Giant deixou sua marca no rolo de livros de história russa. Texas Giant classificou consistentemente como uma das montanhas-russas de madeira no topo do mundo. Em 1996, o ano internacional da montanha-russa é classificado número 1 no mundo. Os editores de diversões Hoje, os membros do National Amusement Park Historical Association e os leitores do Inside Track, são todos os que votaram como a montanha-russa de madeira Número 1.
