New roller coaster bringing thrills to Frontier City

Frontier City’s new roller coaster, the Steel Lasso, opened to the public Thursday at the theme park, 11501 N I-35 Service Road.
The Steel Lasso is Oklahoma’s first suspended roller coaster, so its cars hang from the track instead of riding along them. Your feet just dangle freely as you race 30 mph along 1,000 feet of track.
The theme park has designed the coaster to accommodate families, with people as short as 38 inches allowed to ride.
The Oklahoman‘s David Zizzo checked out the Steel Lasso on Thursday. You can read his story and see video about the new ride by clicking here.
You can also see the coaster for yourself quite easily from Interstate 35 as you pass by the park. (Much to my husband’s displeasure, it occupies the spot where the old Six Shooter Swings used to be.)
