Riders straddled the bicycle style seats and folded in the restraints to be situated. Straight out of the station, the train engages the lift, tilting 30 degrees as the long trek to the top commenced. As the train leveled out at 95 ft, the chain ends out the straight-away before finally releasing the train as gravity takes hold. The train smoothly rounds a bend to the right and runs parallel with the lift. The tracks shoot downwards as the train careens to 50 mph. At the bottom, powerful positive g's push on the riders' legs before going through the one and only inversion, a vertical loop as guests look on from the Oktoberfest path. The train rises again over a hill, providing some rare airtime for the stand up ride The track then circles around and around in a clockwise fasion as the g's add up again. A full 540 degrees is traversed. The ride straightens up as it flies over a hill above the exit path, dropping again as the train shoots back to below the lift. The level track gives way as it leans to the left with a little bit of trick track. After leveling off, the ride cuts right and gains a bit of altitude before dropping into a pair of short bunny hops, ending out the air time moments only to rise again into the final brakes aside the station.
