journey
In contrast to most other roller coasters, the first inversion of the ride is not after the descent , but immediately after the train has left the station. It's a heartline roll . Only then is the train pulled to a height of 29 m before it descends a 31 m high descent. The train reaches a maximum speed of 85 km / h with which it travels through the next inversion, the inclined - dive loop . This is followed by a zero-g-roll , a corkscrew and a cobra-roll , which consists of two inversions. Another corkscrew is passed through as the final inversion.
Trains
Hydra the Revenge has two trains with eight cars each. Four people (one row) can be seated in each car. The passengers must be at least 1.37 m tall to be allowed to ride. Shoulder straps are used as a restraint system.
