Sidewinder is an Arrow Dynamics launched shuttle roller coaster located at Elitch Gardens in Denver, Colorado. Before being operated at Elitch Gardens this roller coaster operated at the Magic Springs and Crystal Falls amusement park as the Roaring Tornado. It is one of four Arrow Dynamics launched loop coasters to be operating around the world. The ride has received new paint for the 2010 season, and is now more of a lime green than the darker shade it has been since being repainted from its original white.

Elements
