Twisted Timbers is a hybrid roller coaster, with steel track on a wooden structure, at the edge of the Candy Apple Grove area of Kings Dominion in Doswell, Virginia. Rocky Mountain Construction built it, and it opened on March 24, 2018, replacing Hurler, a wooden coaster that ran from 1994 to 2015. Wikipedia credits Alan Schilke with the design.
After a 111-foot chain lift, the train plunges down a 109-foot barrel roll drop, the first of three inversions; RCDB also lists an overbanked curve, a cutback and a zero-G roll. The park describes more than 20 airtime hills and a top speed of 54 mph, and RCDB gives a track length of 3,361 feet.
The ride's story is set in an abandoned orchard struck by a mysterious event in 1950. Riders must be at least 48 inches tall.
