What’s going on guys and welcome back to the channel! On my recent trip to Japan, we got to experience a lot of cool attractions and roller coasters, and while they were fun… one thing was missing. At first I didn’t really notice, but then it hit me. We didn’t ride one single wooden roller coaster on our entire trip, the entire trip. And to be honest, this kind of bummed me out. Where were all the wooden roller coasters? Well, after some quick research, I found out that Japan wasn’t even allowed to build wooden roller coasters until somewhat recently, and in fact there is only 3 in the entire country. But this got me wondering about these 3, and I was surprised to learn that of them, there is actually a forgotten one in Japan, that happens to be the 5th longest wooden coaster in the world! Like legit, out of the 185 wooden roller coasters still operating (which is kind of sad), Japan has the 5th longest one in the world! So what is it? And where did it come from? This is the story of Kijima Kogen’s, Jupiter! 🤯 🎢

Surprisingly the longest coaster in the world that inverts is a Disney coaster, it’s California screamin’/incredicoaster

Wow that was very interesting but I do wish that you kept the endings of your videos the same way as you did before when you allowed us to see the whole Circuit of the roller coaster

Thank you for another excellent video. Now I want to go to Japan.

Great video! Sounds like a fun coaster but hard for an enthusiast to get to because only the big island of Japan is that populated really.

I’ve always thought Jupiter should be RMC’d but after hearing this was Summer’s last coaster before his passing, then nevermind RMC this coaster should be preserved!

Yep! Even the steel coasters have to withstand earthquake & tsunami. Steel Dragon was at one time the most expensive coaster to build because of that. California is another expensive place to build. The props in Splash Mountain are concrete also it's a damp environment. It's a flip. Used to be wayyyyyy more woodies than steelies.

I rode this 3 times before, and let me tell you, the operations are VERY slow and those "airtime hills" deliver little to no airtime lol Still a cool ride tho, if they retrack it soon, itll probably be in the top 5 of everyone's list

Regina at Tobu Zoo just reopened with GCI giving it a retracking. I’ve ridden that woodie as well as Nagashima Spaland’s White Cyclone (which is now an RMC conversion) both a little on the rough side, but not unbearable, and got some airtime on both rides. The later is one of the most beautiful woodies I’ve seen. I didn’t get to go that far down Japan to ride Jupiter. Maybe if I ever return to Japan, which I may someday, since it’s a beautiful country with a rich and fascinating culture.

I wonder if Intamin would revisit the Prefab track for retracking purposes so Jupiter could have a steeper drop, smoother turns, and maybe redo the second half so it doesn’t valley
@elevatoralarmcoasterandarc1214
It needs to be retracked.

It needs to be the Beast at Kings Island. Then it would be retracked AND #1 not #5

I'm old school but I find woodies far more exhilarating. Gigas bore me.

Altoona Iowa has two wood coasters at Adventureland. The Tornado which when built held a couple records. It's been an anchor ride since the park opened. And The Outlaw which is not as impressive and rides rough but worth the ride regardless. The park has 3 metal coasters as well.

Really hoping Jupiter stays around for the foreseeable future. Would love to get to ride this Summers and Intamin wooden coaster. Hopefully more woodies get built. A world without them would be very sad

Could you also do a Video on the Regina Rollercoaster please?🙏

I'd say 150 feet is actually pretty tall for a woodie

Thanks for another video. When you talk about hight and length on coasters you say it in Feet. But i live in Sweden, so we have the metric system. It could be nice that you can say hight and lengh in meters as well in future videos. Thanks.

Correct Me If I'm Wrong But I Think That Jupiter Has The World's Longest Pre-lift , Because The Lift Is Quite A Distance Away When Exiting The Station. Again Feel Free To Correct Me But I Don't Think I've Seen A Coaster With A Longer Pre-lift Than Jupiter.

Even though RMCs are awesome and wooden coasters get old, we should keep them because less than 200’is very low, and wooden coasters are history.
