Arrow Dynamics was a roller coaster and amusement ride design company based in Clearfield, Utah, United States. In 2002, the company went bankrupt but was quickly bought by fellow amusement ride manufacturer S&S Power to form S&S Arrow.
During its peak, Arrow Dynamics was responsible for some of the biggest and most influential advancements in the roller coaster industry. From the first tubular steel tracked coaster, Matterhorn Bobsleds at Disneyland, to the first mine train roller coaster, Run-A-Way Mine Train at Six Flags Over Texas, to the first modern inverting coaster, Corkscrew at Knott's Berry Farm, to the world's first hypercoaster, Magnum XL-200 at Cedar Point, to the world's first multi-dimensional roller coaster, X² at Six Flags Magic Mountain, Arrow Dynamics had a monumental and lasting impact on the roller coaster industry.
Roller coaster company Vekoma still uses Arrow-designed trains on some of their roller coasters.
