Roller coaster
Minimum height to ride: 54 inches

About V2: Vertical Velocity

A launching coaster with a "twist." Originally, this inverted coaster would shoot you forward up a twisting spike and backward up a vertical spike. Due to height restrictions, the twisting spike is now diagonal, making a ride which was new in 2001 new again in 2002.

This is one of the best shuttle coasters. It is very smooth and re-ridable. Don't ride this ride if you do not like being launched since it goes 0 to 65 M.P.H. in about three seconds. - AJ Hummel
