The story of Hair Raiser
Hair Raiser opened on 8 December 2011 as one of the principal attractions in Ocean Park's new Thrill Mountain area, high in the park's Summit section. coasterpedia.net· amusementtoday.com
Bolliger & Mabillard designed the ride as a custom floorless coaster for its cliffside site. Ocean Park thereby gained Hong Kong's first and only floorless roller coaster. www1.parkz.com.au· coasterpedia.net
The layout was arranged to make proper use of the hillside, carrying passengers through a vertical loop, a dive loop, a zero-g roll and an Immelmann before the return to the station. coasterpedia.net
At its opening, the South China Morning Post described Hair Raiser as the city's first floorless coaster and placed it among five new rides introduced at Ocean Park that season. scmp.com
