This steel shuttle coaster utilized a weight-drop launch system to accelerate riders from the station into a large vertical loop. After clearing the inversion, the train climbed a steep incline before gravity pulled it backward through the same circuit. The layout concluded with the train returning to the station after traversing the loop a second time in reverse. The ride offered a compact experience defined by rapid acceleration and consistent positive forces throughout the inversion.
