Wild Wind was a a steel roller coaster that was set up at Motor World in Virginia Beach, Virginia, USA.

History

Wild Wind was originally built at Playland Park, the estimated opening year would have been 1999, but the ride didn't open due to the g-forces being too high. It was taken in down in 2000, after which it was moved to Keansburg Amusement Park. Keansburg ran into the same issue, and sold the coaster to Motor World, where it stood SBNO for the remainder of the 2000 season, being taken down at the end of the season. The coaster's fate isn't known.
