Once at the crown of the chain lift the car navigates round an 's-bend' and another 180 degree turn into the famous 112 degree drop, at this point going at 41m.ph, then travels up a hill completing a 180 turn into some 'trim brakes'. After that the train completes a series of banked turns (360 degress) and then into a barrel roll and half loop. After exiting the half loop the train rises into some more 'trim brakes'. Once exiting the breaks the train then pulls through a 180 degree banked turn and into a heart line roll. Finally an over banked curve and into the final brake-run.
