After leaving the station, the train makes a small dip before making a 180 degree right turn to climb the 157-foot (48 m) lift hill. Once the train apexes the top of the lift, riders drop 148 feet (45 m) to the right at a 57 degree angle, reaching a top speed of 65 miles per hour (105 km/h). The train enters the recording breaking, 135-foot (41 m) tall vertical loop. Following the loop, riders go past the queue and rise up into a turnaround around the ride's station. After the turn, riders enter the cobra loop, which contains two of the ride's five inversions. Riders then pass by the station and enter the mid-course brake run. After the brakes, there is a small drop followed by the interlocking corkscrews, the last two inversions of the ride. Following the corkscrews, the train completes a 135-degree curve to the left that dives into a 270-degree curve above the ground, entering the final brake run. One cycle of the ride lasts about 2 minutes and 6 seconds.
