About Vertical Velocity V-2

Strap in and get ready to fly! V-2, Vertical Velocity is a suspended spiraling impulse coaster. Launched by an advance-design electromagnetic propulsion system. Riders rocket out of the station at 70 mph in less than 4 seconds. You get shot up a spiraling track only to let you fall back down and be reshot up a straight line of track backwards for a total of 3 forward sprials and 2 backward straights.

A really short ride, but if the line is long i would skip it. Its super super scary but its a fun ride if you have the time. - Mike Crimson

It's a fun ride but the lines are always long because of its loading time. - Jen T
