Ride Experience
After being dispacted from the station, the train immediately begins to climb the 135-foot (41 m) lift hill. Once at the top, the train goes through a pre-dop before making a sharp 120-foot (37 m) downward right turn. Once at the bottom, the train enters a 98-foot (30 m) tall vertical loop. After exiting the loop, the train goes through a zero-gravity roll before droping back to the ground and entering an immelmann loop. The train then makes a full 360-degree upward right turn followed by a left turn leading into another drop. After the drop, the train makes highly banked right turn into a corkscrew. Next, the train makes a left turn (extremly close to the ground) before going up, then back down, and back up which leads into the brake run. After exiting the brake run, the train makes a right turn into a second, shorter, set of brakes before entering the station.
One cycle of the ride lasts about 2 minutes.

Famous quotes containing the words ride and/or experience:
“The Danaan children laugh, in cradles of wrought gold,
And clap their hands together, and half close their eyes,
For they will ride the North when the ger-eagle flies,
With heavy whitening wings, and a heart fallen cold....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“I am ashamed to see what a shallow village tale our so-called History is. How many times must we say Rome, and Paris, and Constantinople! What does Rome know of rat and lizard? What are Olympiads and Consulates to these neighboring systems of being? Nay, what food or experience or succor have they for the Esquimaux seal-hunter, or the Kanaka in his canoe, for the fisherman, the stevedore, the porter?”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
