journey
The ride includes three underground descents. One is in Krakens cave at full speed, with the bystanders getting drenched by spray. Much of the octopus is above the water.
The trip also includes seven inversions : after the 45 m high lift hill , there is a long predrop before the train descends the actual first drop . The inversions now follow in the following order: First, the looping is run through. This is followed by the dive loop and the zero G roll . The Cobra-Roll then passed through consists of two inversions. Now the train goes through the second loop before it goes through the last inversion, the corkscrew .
