Design

Elements
The flywheel
The second tyre launch

The ride is a mirror image of Juvelen at Djurs Sommerland in Nimtofte, Midtjylland, Denmark. The acces power of the first launch is transferred to a flywheel, where it is stored and used on the second launch.

The ride opened with a top speed of 90 km/h, this was later changed to 85 km/h after complaints of the ride being too intense.

Trains

2 trains with 9 cars per train. In each car, riders are arranged 2 across in 2 rows, for a total of 36 riders per train.
