Mountain Gliders
A Carowinds favorite returns in 2019! Guests of all ages will have a blast soaring like a bird over Blue Ridge Junction on Mountain Gliders. After boarding one of the unique carriages, you’ll start spinning at a high speed, so much so that you’ll spin outward and rise to 28 feet above the ground. Once in the air, guests will have the ability to operate their carriage’s controls and command the glider’s flight. Whether you explore the high altitudes as if flying above the Blue Ridge Mountains or cruise at a lower elevation in the valleys, the choice – and experience, mild or wild – is up to you.
Originally built in 1935 for Coney Island Amusement Park, the ride moved to Kings Island in 1972. The Phantom Flyers opened at Carowinds in 2005. A Woodstock theme took over in 2010. The gliders were removed last season to make way for Camp Snoopy.

A couple of them came up and introduced themselves to us at C3 once they recognized my avatar photo.
