Riders board the floorless trains and ascend the lift hill while their feet dangle over the park’s landscape. Once over the crest, the train plunges into a relentless sequence of inversions, including a massive roll over and a sidewinder. The layout features tight banked turns and rapid-fire heartline rolls that generate intense g-forces and narrow near-miss encounters with the steel support structure. A final high-speed helix weaves close to the ground, providing a dizzying conclusion to the flight-themed journey.
