130 viewsSFDK ended up using the old Zonga station to help house the new queue line, while they built a brand new station on the other side of the huge concrete slab the ride sits on.

105 viewsThe first drop has a nice little pop of airtime, followed by a smooth transition into the hairpin turns. This is when the whole "spinning" nature of this ride kicks into full gear. For maximum spinnage, put the lightest riders with their backs facing the lift hill.

|
101 viewsThe coaster also features two great swooping helix turns that really keep the train spinning throughout the whole ride.
