Designed by John Miller, it expertly navigates the natural landscape of the Monongahela Valley, providing a unique ride experience. One of its standout features is a 70-foot double-dip drop, which is rare among coasters and contributes to the thrill. Celebrating its legacy, Jack Rabbit combines classic charm with modern safety features and has a requirement that riders must be at least 42 inches tall to ride alone, with young riders needing a supervising companion if they are between 42 and 48 inches.
