Morgan Manufacturing and designed by Steve Okamoto, the roller coaster opened to the public on May 30, 1997, and was billed as "the tallest and longest roller coaster on the east coast",[2] featuring a 205-foot (62 m) drop, 5,600 feet (1,700 m) of track, and a maximum speed of 75 mph (121 km/h).

The train then ascends a third hill, which doubles as the entrance to the downward helix turnaround.

The first airtime hill in this series features a tunnel, and an on-ride camera snaps photos at the bottom of the second.

Following the double-up element, the train passes over the entrance plaza and enters the final brake run before returning to the station.
