Moonsault Scramble at RCDB

Moonsault Scramble (ムーンサルト・スクランブル) was a shuttle roller coaster located at Fuji-Q Highland in Fujiyoshida, Yamanashi, Japan. Manufactured by Sanoyas Hishino Meisho, the ride opened to the public on 24 June 1983. According to the Guinness Book of Records, Moonsault Scramble was the tallest roller coaster in the world at 70 metres (230 ft) when it opened.[1] It held the record until the opening of Fujiyama, a coaster that opened at the same park in 1996, which reached 79 metres (259 ft) in height. The coaster was removed from the park in 2000[2] to make way for the construction of Dodonpa, which opened in 2001.[citation needed]
