Gerstlauer's first Shuttle Infinity Coaster in the United States — named and themed to go there and back again.

Palindrome is a Shuttle Infinity Coaster by Gerstlauer. Set at the northern end of COTALAND, the ride sits atop an elevated berm and spans COTA Blvd, running from the trackside of the property to a larger water feature on the opposite side. Riders take an initial 95-foot drop, spiral across the road, and ultimately run the entire path backwards after a vertical hop-stall.

Both the name and the theming are a play on the ride's motion. Vintage-style signs adorn the loading platform, dozens of palindromes rendered in various graphic styles and neon.

For inquiries about scope, scale, or timing, please reach out directly.
