Featuring two scream-worthy launches and four inversions, you’ll need a sense of adventure and an iron will to face off against this predator of a coaster.

Spectrum News reported that the coaster will reach up to 70 mph and feature over 4,700 feet of track.

With an 80-degree drop and 360-degree barrel roll, it will certainly be a new adventure thrill-seekers will be excited to experience.
