WHen the train departs, you turn slightly left. You start to ascend upwards, slowly. Then, emergency signals begin blaring everywhere and you blast out of the tunnel! You go through and Immelman and down into a huge Cobra Roll over the lake! Then you come back down and do a loop over the midway! Right after that, you go through a tunnel (sometimes they have misters in the tunnel). Then, you go through a hugh Camelback Roll. Then, you do a few "swoop turns" and then go through a fast, i mean really fast, loop. Then, you turn really hard up and left into the block (like the turn after the second loop on BTR) After the block, you do a corckscrew and someother endy stuff that all coasters have.
I thought it was OKAY but nothing spectacular. It has an incredible launch, to inversion, to drop sequence to start it off! However, after that initial first part (once it passes past the station), it's just Iron Wolf to me. Others will disagree, but I think the Dueling Dragons were the best in that park, and Revenge of the Mummy owning both!

That ride was decent, I preferred Dueling Dragons though. I rode Hulk in every row, it's not your average B&M and can be thrilling the first and second time, but after that, it's alright.

That thing you call an Immelman, is really a Zero-G-Roll.
Would anyone care to explain what a "Camelback Roll" is?
Okay, they are two different things as a matter of fact. An Immelman is when you go up to the side and down. A Zero G Roll is when you do a twist in a line.
And a camel back it the inversion between the loops on BTR. Its nearly identical to a ZeroG but, zero Gs are normally, up-flip-down, while Camelbacks are a continuous roll.
Its a really good ride but Dueling Dragons is much much better.
