Moderate Thrill
Olde Idlewild
Min: 36 inches
Max: None
Spider is a high-energy thrill ride that resembles a giant black spider, with six sweeping arms extending outward from a central hub. As the ride begins, the entire structure rotates counterclockwise, setting the stage for a wild, multi-directional experience.
Each sweeping arm rises and falls in alternating motion, while the two rider cars at the end of each arm spin independently. The combination of rotation, lifting, and free-spinning cars means riders are dipped, twisted, and turned from every angle—making Spider a fast-paced favorite for guests who enjoy classic amusement thrills with constant motion.
