Boomerang was a Vekoma Boomerang roller coaster located at Knott's Berry Farm, in Buena Park, California. The ride replaced the former Corkscrew. It was dismantled on April 23, 2017 to make room for a new coaster, called HangTime. It now operates as Boomerang Hyper Coaster at Trans Studio Cibubur in Indonesia.

Color scheme[]

When it opened, the ride was painted entirely blue. In 2003 it was repainted purple with green supports. For the 2013 season, the track was repainted yellow and the supports green.

Trivia[]

  • The first round of the cancelled Cartoon Network game show, Brainrush, took place on this coaster. This is where the most tie-breakers occur.
