The Ride
Blue Flyer begins with a lift hill to the ride's highest height of 25 ft, the ride then travels over two small hills and into a tunnel, located inside the building where Astro Storm was located. The ride exits the tunnel and travels along a slight decline before entering the brakes section and rolling into the station.
Sponsorship
Blue Flyer was briefly sponsored by Warburtons, and was known as the Warburtons Milk Roll-a-coaster, although all signage still read Zipper Dipper for the duration of the sponsorship as that was the ride's name before Nickelodeon Land.
