This roller coaster features a track that stretches two kilometers in total, reaches a maximum height of 100 meters, and hurtles along at speeds of 150 kilometers per hour. The entire ride lasts a heart-pounding three and a half minutes. Riders experience the ultimate thrill as the coaster climbs to its highest point and then plunges toward the ground at an almost “right-angle” descent—the sheer intensity is enough to make your knees weak just thinking about it.
