Local Theme Parks Win Top Industry Awards

Two local theme parks have won major awards for new attractions, News Radio 1200 WOAI reports.

Popular Science has named the brand new WONDER WOMAN Golden Lasso Coaster at Six Flags Fiesta Texas as their Grand Award Winner in the category of the eleven most important innovations in engineering.

The roller coaster, unlike the traditional 'railroad track' base, uses a thin single rail to mount the passenger cars, which allows 90 degree drops, and twists and turns which could not be accomplished in traditional coasters.

Morgan's Wonderland's new Morgan's Inspiration Island splash park, which, like the rest of Morgan's Wonderland, is designed specifically for special needs visitors, has been handed the Leading Edge Award from the World Waterpark Association.
