Nighthawk

Roller coaster
Minimum height to ride: 54 inches

About Nighthawk

Formally the Borg Assimilator. The Carolinas' first flying coaster is also the tallest roller coaster in the park. It soars riders through eight inversions, most while flying facedown, zooming toward the ground and turning skyward just in time for the next inversion. The unique rider position offers breathtaking and virtually unobstructed views of the park. -- Last edited by zach w

Harnesses can be uncomfortable, and get grease all over you, but all said a good ride. Now that the name has changed have they changed the themeing? - Todd Harris
