Superman: Ride Of Steel

Roller coaster

About Superman: Ride Of Steel

From the moment you see this coaster, you know that it is something quite special. And riding it is a whole new world. Being one of Europe's only floorless coasters gets it off to a good start, and the well implemented 7 inversions don't hurt either, but the ultimate thrill really comes from the first drop. This doesn't wimp out like so many others and give you a curved drop. No, to start the ride you face a 50m drop straight down, staring at the ground, reaching speeds of up to 90km/h. Then the qualities of a floorles coaster begin. Nothing above you. Nothing to the sides. Very little below. One hell of a coaster, and possibly Europe's best.
