Hurricane at Myrtle Beach Demolished

Hurricane Joins the Roller Coaster Obituaries
The Myrtle Beach Pavilion will no longer be home to the CCI wooden coaster known as the Hurricane. For a while the coaster was for sale. You can see Hurricane's listing here. And surprisingly, the young wooden coaster with an attractive sticker price, went unpurchased. As a result the ride has been levelled.

Hurricane debuted at the Myrtle Beach Pavilion in 2000, at a costs of $6,000,000. It featured a 100 foot drop, speeds of 55 mph, and 14 turns. Hurricane had an average rating of 8.6 with 25 reviews at ThemeParkCritic.com. Full article.

Have you ridden Hurricane? Feel free to leave a comment and mourn below.
