The Jet Star 2 is a high speed roller coaster type ride. It starts by spiraling up a steel track to the top of the ride. At this point the cars cascade down and around the track at varying angles. There are eight cars which require six passengers each; two passengers per seat section. In operation at Lagoon the capacity for the Jet Star 2 is 1,680 passengers per hour.

After this coaster's six-month run at the 1974 Expo in Spokane, Washington, it was moved to Lagoon and reerected for the 1976 summer season. In 1991 part of the track was rebuilt by Fabri-Weld. Jet Star 2 has been such a popular ride that in 2005 a large investment was made to refurbish the ride.

Jet Star 2 is included with Ride and Season Passports.
