Note: Roller coasters that have wood support structures with steel track such as Twisted Colossus at Six Flags Magic Mountain or Wicked Cyclone at Six Flags New England are classified as steel coasters due to their steel track. Therefore, they are not included in wood coaster rankings, such as this list.

  1. Due to the questionable safety record of the Smiler, which some commentators claim has too many inversions too close together, the Guinness Book of World Records is considering (as of summer 2015) the withdrawal of this record, per its policy regarding records which could be seen as undesirable.
