Design
| Elements |
|---|
This is one of twelve roller coasters built by Bolliger & Mabillard that share the Batman layout - first seen on Batman The Ride at Six Flags Great America in 1992. The ride is about a hundred feet shorter than the Six Flags Batman inverted coasters, which leads to what some enthusiasts consider a bit more of an intense ride.
Trains
2 trains with 8 cars per train. Riders are arranged 4 across in a single row for a total of 32 riders per train.
