Ride Experience
Carolina Cobra is one of over 50 boomerang coasters installed by Vekoma around the world, but it is the first boomerang roller coaster to feature all new re-designed trains directly from Vekoma After dispatch, the train is pulled backwards up the 125-foot (38 m) lift hill. After that, riders are dropped 120 feet (37 m) down, fly back through the station and into a Cobra Roll element. The riders then are taken through a 360-degree vertical Loop and are sent up a second 125-foot (38 m) hill. The riders pause, and are sent down to do the full circuit again backwards.

Famous quotes containing the words ride and/or experience:
““But such as you and I do not seem old
Like men who live by habit. Every day
I ride with falcon to the river’s edge
Or carry the ringed mail upon my back,
Or court a woman; neither enemy,
Game-bird, nor woman does the same thing twice....””
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“Plato—who may have understood better what forms the mind of man than do some of our contemporaries who want their children exposed only to “real” people and everyday events—knew what intellectual experience made for true humanity. He suggested that the future citizens of his ideal republic begin their literary education with the telling of myths, rather than with mere facts or so-called rational teachings.”
—Bruno Bettelheim (20th century)
