Ride Experience
The ride begins with a turn from the station which leads into a brief dark ride section where the riders are attacked by the Joker, after the section the train receives its first launch, then it goes through an outbanked airtime hill and a corkscrew before entering the ride's main launch section. The train then enters a top hat which is also the ride's tallest point, before the drop of the top hat there is a set of magnetic brakes which holds the train at the top. After the beyond vertical drop the ride goes through an airtime hill and a dive loop, then through an S hill and another corkscrew before entering its last launch section, which boosts the train into a zero g stall. After the stall the train enters back into the main building and goes through a spike before rolling back into the main brake run, then, through a turntable, it is able to return to the station.[1]
