At 105 km/h it can now clear the horseshoe.

A 3rd and final pass down the launch track propels riders to maximum speed.

It's also a great spectacle for people on the exit ramp.

It's a surprisingly forceful element, with strong positve g's felt as you transition uphill.

The train coasts backwards down the launch track, when a powerful kick from the 2nd launch boosts the train up the reverse spiral.

The first launch gives the train enough power to get halfway up the horseshoe. It loses momentum and then rolls backwards down the launch track, much like the old Tower of Terror.

The switch track then slides across, connecting the launch track to the section of track leading up the reverse spiral. The train launches immediately after it locks in place.

The ride uses a switch track system to allow the train to travel in two directions on the launch track. First the train rolls onto to the start of the launch track and then stops.

The train glides out of the station, and a low barrier makes it easy to photograph your friends on the ride.

The so called "Zero Car" on the train.

The trains feature a comfortable overhead lapbar and elevated seating, creating a real feeling of openness when riding.

The load platform is functional, with plenty of space for loose items, and dual exit gates to clear the platform quickly.

The safety video plays on overhead screens. There are 10 rows on one train, each seating two riders. The Tailwhip equipped train has only 9 rows, and the load gates are programmed to keep the gate for row 10 closed when that train is parked.

The station is spacious, with the entry host able to batch three trains ahead of time by directing guests to stand on the dots.

The queue splits, with general riders heading up to the right, with Single Riders, Ride Express pass holders and Tailwhip riders heading up the left.

The coaster features a wide variety of elements, including 4 inversions, a triple "swing launch" with a reverse spiral, a rock tunnel, and of course plenty of turns and hills.
