Tilt Lift/thrill Lift Section
There are two types of tilt coaster: A standard coaster with a vertical drop at the start (trains enter the vertical drop via an unusual tilt section; after leaving the chain lift, instead of going down a first drop, the rider is held on a horizontal section of track, which then tilts forwards, to become a vertical section, which leads into the drop, then into the rest of the coaster layout); and a thrill lift designed similar to the elevator lift but instead of it bringing the riders up into the horizontal position, it brings them to a vertical and then lets gravity do the rest. There is one operating Tilt Coaster in the world, Gravity Max! at Discovery World in Taiwan.

Famous quotes containing the words lift, thrill and/or section:
“Lets not quibble! Im the foe of moderation, the champion of excess. If I may lift a line from a die-hard whose identity is lost in the shuffle, Id rather be strongly wrong than weakly right.”
—Tallulah Bankhead (19031968)
“As I came home through the woods with my string of fish, trailing my pole, it being now quite dark, I caught a glimpse of a woodchuck stealing across my path, and felt a strange thrill of savage delight, and was strongly tempted to seize and devour him raw; not that I was hungry then, except for that wildness which he represented.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Personally I think were over-specialized. Why its getting so we have experts who concentrate only on the lower section of a specimens left ear.”
—Martin Berkeley, and Jack Arnold. Prof. Clete Ferguson (John Agar)
