Ride Experience
Upon exiting the station, the train immediately begins climbing the 188-foot (57 m) lift hill. Upon reaching the top, the train curves into the 171-foot (52 m) drop, entering the 140-foot (43 m) tall vertical loop. The train then turns a sharp left, entering two vertical loops and then climbing into the mid-course brake run, followed by a zig-zag into the boomerang (two connected diving loops, each is a mirror image of the other). Riders are photographed by the on-ride camera in the middle of this element. Riders then make a right turn and immediately enter the double-corkscrew, followed by flat track and two turns before hitting the final brake run, then making a final turn before returning to the station.

Famous quotes containing the words ride and/or experience:
“Listen, my children, and you shall hear
Of the midnight ride of Paul Revere,
On the eighteenth of April, in Seventy-five;
Hardly a man is now alive
Who remembers that famous day and year.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)
“You know that fiction, prose rather, is possibly the roughest trade of all in writing. You do not have the reference, the old important reference. You have the sheet of blank paper, the pencil, and the obligation to invent truer than things can be true. You have to take what is not palpable and make it completely palpable and also have it seem normal and so that it can become a part of experience of the person who reads it.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
