This attraction utilizes a wooden trough design where the vehicles travel freely without being attached to a fixed track. The ride begins with multiple chain lift hills that elevate the multi-car trains to the top of the structure. Once released, the cars navigate a series of banked turns and chutes, relying on centrifugal force and gravity to maintain their path through the winding wooden course. Riders experience a sensation of sliding and swinging as the train oscillates up the sides of the curved wooden walls.
