Time Twister

Time Twister is the newest addition to Waldameer, and the first amusement ride addition in five years. It is one of only a few rides at Waldameer to feature over-the-shoulder restraints. It replaced Spider, which operated in the spot from 1977 to 2024. It is often described as a "vertical scrambler", featuring many near-miss moments throughout its ride cycles. Time Twister has eight arms, each containing two four-passenger ride vehicles.

The ride can be located to the right of the Whacky Shack.
