This is a thrilling challenge over a water obstacle course inspired by the thrill and energy of Orlando, the rollercoaster capital of the world.

Red Bull Tandem Rollercoaster is a wild ride like no other — and it's coming to Orlando!

Red Bull Tandem Rollercoaster is a wild ride like no other and it's coming to Cranes Roost Park in Altamonte Springs!


What's Red Bull Tandem Rollercoaster? The concept is quite simple. On the most creatively designed tandem bikes, teams of two will attempt to cross a challenging obstacle course over water without falling in. Teams will be judged on creativity, showmanship, and time; the team with the highest score wins.


This is the most fun race you can imagine on water and on Saturday, September 27, participants and spectators can enjoy this thrilling challenge over a water obstacle course inspired by the thrill and energy of Orlando, the rollercoaster capital of the world.



The water obstacle course will be navigated by teams of two riding a non-motorized rollercoaster-themed craft built on a tandem bike frame!


The 30 fearless teams, chosen from more than 300 applications, will compete on custom, rollercoaster-themed tandem bicycles across a 300-foot obstacle course over water with drops as high as six feet. Teams will be judged on creativity, showmanship and distance. The three teams with the highest scores will stand atop the Red Bull Tandem Rollercoaster podium. A fourth trophy will be presented to the People’s Choice Award fan-vote winner.


Leading the all-star panel is 2025 Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame Inductee and Orlando Magic legend Dwight Howard; Meagan Ethell, 8x wakeboard World Champion and Red Bull athlete; and Zack Fairhurst, social media creator known as @MaddZak.


This is a free event for spectators!
