The last time we were here on this site sat the one and only High Speed
Thrill Coaster. It was a sick airtime machine masquerading as
a kiddie coaster. Being as extreme as it was eventually the HSTC;
as the name was shortened to, reached the end of its life and had to be
removed after fifty-three years at Knoebels.
In its place Knoebels erected a worthy successor to such a legendary coaster,
Kozmo's Kurves.
The High Speed Thrill Coaster was just an oval while Kozmo's Kurves throws
a helix into the same small footprint as well as plenty of airtime just
like its predecessor.
Kozmo's Kurves was added to Knoebels in 2009 and was designed and built
by E&F Miler Industries.
I am not a huge fan of Miler's larger coasters as they can be a bit rough
but their rides like Kozmo's Kurves really rock.
