Once Upon A Coaster episodes

  • Most Underrated Coasters (BONUS EPISODE)
    Our June 2021 BONUS EPISODE tackles the hard-hitting coaster journalism you've come to expect from OUACoaster.  We're discussing four coasters that we would argue fly too far under the radar.  All of these coasters are great rides, but everyone seems to forget about them.  Why is that??

    Don't worry if you haven't heard of this ride we're discussing today, you may have ridden it - or a clone copy of it - without even realizing.  Listen in as we break down the unique life of Corkscrew, the first modern inverting coaster to ever be built, and how it has found a new life at a small amusement park in Idaho.
