Crazy Cobra is a steel launched roller coaster located at Discoveryland in Dalian, Liaoning, China. Built by Premier Rides, It uses a LIM launch system instead of a traditional lift hill to propel the train.

History

When the ride originally opened on 21 March 1998, it was originally called Mad Cobra at Suzuka Circuit in Japan. This was two years after the world's first LIM-launched coasters, Flight of Fear opened at Kings Island and a clone of that coaster opened at Kings Dominion.

Mad Cobra closed in September 2003 and moved to Discoveryland, where it was renamed Crazy Cobra. It opened on 16 July 2006. The coaster was closed from 2016 to 2018.
