Riders are propelled from an elevated station by a sudden launch, quickly gaining momentum before plummeting down a steep drop into a large vertical loop. The intense g-forces press passengers into their seats as they invert, only to climb a dead-end spike that leaves them momentarily suspended in mid-air. The train then reverses direction, surging backward through the loop and back up the initial incline. This sequence provides a forceful sensation of orientation loss as the world blurs in both directions.
