The Zippin Pippin is one of the oldest existing wooden roller coasters in the United States. This is a POV video from the front row of this historical attraction. It was initially constructed in the former East End Park in Memphis, Tennessee, in 1912 by John A. Miller and Harry C. Baker of National Amusement Devices. The construction material was pine wood. As the park declined in popularity, the coaster was dismantled and relocated adjacent to the horse track in Montgomery Park, later known as the Mid-South Fairgrounds. For a time it was incorporated as an attraction in the now-closed Libertyland amusement park there, until that park closed in 2005. Purchased by the city of Green Bay, Wisconsin, in 2010, it was installed at the Bay Beach Amusement Park where it is once again in operation. Special thanks to Canobie Coaster for helping me produce this video.
