Iron Gwazi is an upcoming steel-wooden hybrid roller coaster under construction at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay amusement park in Tampa, Florida. Originally built as a wooden, dueling roller coaster with two separate tracks, Gwazi first opened to the public on June 18, 1999. It was constructed by Great Coasters International and was named after a fabled creature with a head of a tiger and a body of a lion. Accordingly, the two sides of the roller coaster's track were named "Lion" and "Tiger." Both sides of the roller coaster reached a height of 105.4 feet , with a maximum speed of 51 mph , and stretched over 7,000 feet when taking both tracks into account.
Iron Gwazi is built and designed by Rocky Mountain Construction , and will feature RMC's I-Box track. Iron Gwazi will reuse a large portion of structure that existed when the roller coaster was known as Gwazi, making it a hybrid roller coaster that utilizes a combination of steel and wood. It will become the tallest hybrid roller coaster in North America when it opens, as well as being the joint tallest hybrid roller coaster alongside Zadra at Energylandia. It will also be the steepest and fastest hybrid roller coaster in the world. It was intended to open in 2020, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Florida, the opening was pushed to 2021.
