History
[edit]Canada's Wonderland removed Xtreme Skyflyer in March of 2024 and began teasing a new attraction near Wonder Mountain.[3] Construction fences put up near the mountain during the 2024 season read "Something big is coming. Stay tuned".[4] On July 20th, Canada's Wonderland posted to its Instagram with the caption "Discover the legend within.... 8/8", indicating to the public that the teased ride would be announced on August 8th.[5] On announcement day, the park released the name of the ride, its specifications, and the storyline behind it in a press release.[6] They also published on-ride and off-ride POV videos on their website and YouTube account.[6][7] In the POV videos, part of AlpenFury can be seen occupying Xtreme Skyflyer's former plot.
