This steel inverted shuttle coaster utilizes linear induction motors to propel the train forward and backward out of the station. Riders are suspended beneath the track as they travel up two vertical towers, one featuring a spiraling twist and the other a straight vertical drop. The experience consists of multiple oscillations between these spikes, providing moments of weightlessness and high-speed passage through the loading area.
