This GCI terrain woodie is considered one of the world's most challenging and thrilling games that first appeared in Vietnam.
The GCI terrain woodie has the highest point of 32.4m, with 14 steep slopes and twisted spirals. During two minutes of the game, participants have to go through a distance of nearly 900 m winding and spiraling continuously. The woodie was made from 1,000 cubic meter of U.S.-imported wood on the foundation of 1,355 concrete pillars which are buried deep into the ground.
Expert Luis Alberto Torres of the Great Coaster International, a well-known wooden roller coaster manufacturer from the U.S. with 25 years of history, said that the Roaring Timbers is one of the smoothest, most twisted, and highest quality wooden roller coasters in the world.
