The Tickler is a spinning roller coaster at Luna Park in Coney Island, Brooklyn, New York. It was one of the Zamperla rides the park opened with in 2010, and its name recalls a ride of the same name at the original Luna Park.
RCDB lists it as a Zamperla Twister Coaster, a spinning wild mouse model with 1,378 feet of track, a chain lift and no inversions. Each car seats four riders in one row and spins freely as it runs through switchback turns and short dips. The ride climbs toward the Coney Island Tillie face sign at the top of the course.
The park's minimum height is 48 inches to ride alone, or 42 inches with a companion.
