You'll get a chance to zip down 1.7 kilometres of track at speeds of up to 40 kilometres an hour.

According to Cypress, the new attraction will open in the summer of 2021.

Construction is already underway on the "gravity thrill ride" and it will be unique in Vancouver.

The closest mountain coaster like this to the city is in Revelstoke, but the Cypress one will be just a bit bigger.
