As I said earlier that Carowinds did a really good job theming up this
corner of the park to aviation.
Wind Star was one of the many rides added to create this themed area
back in 2023.
Bond and Travis took Wind Star for a spin. It is a nice little
ride where riders get to control how high they go. It's basically
a adult version of the old Red Baron plane rides we all rode at parks
when we were kids.
With the aerial theme it is no surprise to find a Zamperla rides Air
Racers ride here. These rides look so much fin but not wanting to
ruin my day at a park I'm just going to avoid giving one a try.
We saw the Hover and Dodge bumper car ride and decided to give it a try.
The cars looked really cool but our ride session was rather lacking as
they have no speed which means not much bumping. A lack of force
to properly bump with ruins a bumper car ride.
