Rated: 3.0 out of 5 (5 votes)

The first of three world-class wooden roller coasters that operate at Holiday World & Splashin Safari. Known fondly by many as "Raven Air" and this roller coaster is the perfect example of Custom Coaster's ability to deliver a #1 ride without the need to be the longest or tallest ride in the world. Famous for its incredible night rides, Raven perfectly follows the wooded terrain along Lake Rudolph providing many unexpected turns and plenty of airtime throughout. Since its debut in 1995, Raven has consistently ranked as one of the top wooden coasters in the world by coaster enthusiasts and has been featured on a number of Discovery Channel television specials.
