Background[]

In 2019, the park announced the closure and demolition of Dare Devil Dive, a Skycoaster ride. Later that year, markers for a new ride for the park in 2020 were spotted, causing more speculation as to what the new ride would be.

Announcement and construction[]

On August 29, 2019, Six Flags announced Harley Quinn Spinsanity, a Giant Discovery pendulum ride, that would open in 2020. It would be the tallest and fastest in the DMV. (District, Maryland, Virginia)[1]

The ride was constructed mostly during the COVID-19 pandemic throughout the park's closure and was mostly finished when the park reopened in early-July.[2] By September 2020, the ride's operation buildings were in shape.

Throughout the park's off-season up to park opening, most of the queue, operation buildings, and theming were finished in an announcement video with the new park president of Six Flags America, Richard Pretlow. [3]

Grand opening[]

The nearby Riddle Me This can't operate while this is operating and vice-versa
