Cheetah at RCDB Pictures of Cheetah at RCDB Cheetah is a wooden roller coaster by Custom Coasters International, located in the African Pridelands Section of the Wild Adventures theme park, in Valdosta, Georgia. The coaster was named after the Cheetah, the fastest land animal, because of its top speed reaching 65 mph when the coaster first opened, but after years of friction and track deformation the coaster was recorded in 2009 reaching a top speed of 52 miles per hour. It has a standard out and back layout with five bunny hops and a figure - eight ending. Built in 2001, Cheetah is the largest roller coaster at Wild Adventures. In Wild Adventures off season between 2009 and 2010, the Cheetah was given a $1.3 Million renovation by Martin & Vleminckx replacing the track on the figure - eight and smoothing out the rest of the track. Layout Cheetah begins with a 95 - foot ( 29 m ) - tall drop to a small 20 - foot ( 6.1 m ) bunny hop, followed by a larger 55 - foot ( 17 m ) bunny hop. It continues with a 35 - degree decline into a helix. Cheetah 's return journey starts with a 62 - foot ( 19 m ) drop and two more 35 - foot ( 11 m ) bunny hops. These lead into right turn flat helix, ending with a figure eight. References Jump up ^ `` Retracking ''. Martin & Vleminckx. Archived from the original on 25 November 2013.
