The trains hang under the track on this ride. You are taken up the lift hill at a relatively quick pace and you enter a initial twisted drop to the right. You instantly enter an inline loop that flips you upside down twice. From there you roll through two bunny hills and past the photo spot. You enter a half loop that turns into a tight helix that ends with two consecutive inline twists that will take you back by the initial drop. You make a final turn and head into the brake run where you are allowed to sit for a short while while the station is cleared. This ride is being repainted yellow and orange for the 2005 season. -Geauga Online- YELLOW AND ORANGE. Intresting.

Why? It was only built in 98.

^^ Yes, we're all aware of the SLC layout by now.

Also, VekomaFan, didn't we chase you out of the TN Village due to every single darn post saying "Vekoma is uber cool".

EDIT: The reason of the repaint is due to Cedar Fair wanting Thunderhawks paint scheme to fit the Coyote Creek theme. It was revealed recently during ACE's Eastcoaster event.
