IOA's other truly near perfected coaster.
Unique? Well I don't see how you could take a B&M design
and alter it any more than they did. The themeing is Disney
quality, even waiting in line was fun. You actually enter in
a castle, which is just made for the queve, and in it, you walk
through a dungeon, rooms with moving glass, all different special
effects, it is great. Then you get on the ride itself, and it's
even better! The idea with 2 makes the ride extreme, and when
you get on the cars are weighed. That determines how much of
a start what train needs to hit all points perfectly. When you
are on the lift hill, don't be surprised if one train stops
so the other can catch up. You ride through an interesting landscape,
weaving around in the open, always aiming and repeling the other
coaster. You are sure to have fun on this coaster, a state of
the art thrill!
