The experience begins with a sudden, powerful surge of electromagnetic force that propels the car down a long straightaway. Riders feel immense pressure as they rapidly accelerate toward the vertical tower looming ahead. Once the track curves upward, the vehicle climbs until it seems to hover momentarily in a state of weightless suspension high above the landscape. After this brief pause, a stomach-churning drop sends the car plunging back toward the earth, retracing its path at extreme velocity. The roar of the wind and the sheer scale of the steel structure create a sense of exposed vulnerability before the brakes bring the car to a smooth halt.
