The Predator is the largest wooden roller coaster in New York State, located at Six Flags Darien Lake. The custom design takes advantage of the traditional wooden coaster element of large amounts of "air" time while also giving a modern twist by additions of sharp banking turns during the circuit.
The ride is closed for the rest of 2006, but it will reopen in 2007.
