Ninja is a steel suspended roller coaster made by Arrow Dynamics of the United States. It is the fastest roller coaster of its kind in the world, joint with Vortex at Canada's Wonderland, both with top speeds of 55mph.
The coaster is located in the Samurai Summit area of Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia, California. Ninja, built in 1988, is one of four suspended-track type roller coasters at Magic Mountain and is still considered by guests as one of the best rides in the park, even with newer and more modern coasters installed nearby.
Ninja received a new paint job for the 2007 season; bright red track and a repainting of the white supports.
