[7] Amid several teasers, the name and logo of the new area, Wildwood Grove, became public knowledge on July 24, and the park subsequently set an announcement date for August 3, 2018.
[9][10] After track began arriving in September 2018, Dragonflier quickly went vertical and was mostly constructed during the fall, with 85% of the layout reportedly having been completed by late November 2018.
[18] Dispatching the station, riders make a 90° left turn into the lift hill, which utilizes drive tires to propel the train to its 63.3-foot (19.3 m) height.
Upon reaching the top, riders bank slightly to the left and plunge into a subterranean tunnel, rising up into a forceful overbanked turn (similar to a Cutback).
Dragonflier itself received praise for its layout, aesthetics, ride experience, and appeal to both children and thrill seekers alike, while coaster enthusiasts lauded its surprise forces and smooth tracking.
[19] On September 9, 2019, Wildwood Grove won a prestiged Golden Ticket Award from coaster industry newspaper Amusement Today for Best Kids Area.
