Loopscrew. *Snicker*
I was bracing for serious pain. Even sitting in the last row, Alan and Erwin are going in with much better attitudes.
It appeared that Dragon King had gotten a new paint job for the season; the colors were rich and very clean.
The black and maroon combo is pretty sharp, I think. Notice that they went to the trouble to paint the loop support spines black and the cross bracings maroon, did the same thing on the rails, too. A little care and affection aesthetically goes a long way in my book.
Dragon King is very much like your stock Arrow triple-looper, except there's a much bigger dip after the lift hill...
...and a more gradual slope down to the teardrop loop. (Yeah, a Bantha corral in some Star Wars kiddie area, I would really dig that. But I digest.)
I'm including as many photos of Dragon King as I am primarily because these sorts of rides do bring back fond memories. |
