Time Warp (formerly known as Tomb Raider: The Ride) was a steel flying roller coaster previously located at Canada's Wonderland in Vaughan, Ontario, Canada. It was Canada's first and only flying roller coaster. From its opening in 2004 to 2007, the coaster was known as Tomb Raider: The Ride.
The ride was installed by Martin & Vleminckx.[1]
History
The ride first opened on 2 May 2004 as Tomb Raider: The Ride. In 2008, it was renamed to Time Warp. No significant changes were made to the coaster itself, only the sign at the entrance and the ride's queue line theming were modified.
The ride was removed from the park's app in February 2025.[2] The park later confirmed its removal.[3] The ride was demolished and scrapped in late March 2025.[4]
Design
The ride was built by Zamperla and had a spiral lift hill. It had a yellow track with turquoise supports. The trains in the station were always moving and did not stop. Time Warp's restraint system consisted of padding that rested right next to riders' heads. There was also a chin rest below riders' chins. Riders could hold on to handlebars. Riders stood in metal cages and rested their feet on one of five metal rungs. A ride operator would shut the metal guard on top of each rider. Riders then lifted into a flying position.
After ascending the spiral lift hill, riders navigated a course of tight twists, turns, dives, and inversions.
Trains
Single cars. Riders are arranged 4 across in a single row, for a total of 4 riders per car.
