FireFall was a Top Spin manufactured by HUSS Park Attractions at California's Great America. The ride was originally located at Six Flags Ohio (later, Geauga Lake) under the name Texas Twister. Upon the closing of Geauga Lake, the ride was relocated to its sister park, California's Great America, where it used to operate on a modified version of the original ride program. FireFall (as Texas Twister) was the first HUSS Top Spin in North America.
The ride featured a wall of water fountains which rose in front of the vehicle as it swung, giving the illusion that riders may get wet, as well as a finale sequence featuring the water bubbling via pneumatic devices before catching on fire using methane gas. The ride was set to the soundtrack specially composed from The Crypt at Kings Dominion.
