KINGS DOMINION, Virginia ?????? Kings Dominion will soar to new heights in 2008 with the introduction of its 14th roller coaster, Dominator. Debuting in late spring, this innovative 4,210-foot steel coaster will be the longest floorless coaster in the world and have the tallest roller coaster loop.
Riders will board the coaster on the east side of International Street, just behind the park??????s Berserker ride. Once seated, guests begin their journey with a short, twisted U-turn and climb the 161 foot-tall lift hill. After the 32 passenger train crests the top of the lift, riders are sent flying down a 157 foot drop, eventually speeding into the gut-wrenching, record-breaking vertical loop, which stands 135 feet tall. Four additional inversions will follow during Dominator??????s two minute and six second, adrenaline pumping experience.
??????Kings Dominion is known for having one of the country??????s widest varieties of roller coasters,?????? said Pat Jones, Kings Dominion??????s vice president and general manager. ??????Dominator is the perfect definition of the word ??????thrill?????? and reflects our commitment to combining one-of-a-kind attractions with fantastic family entertainment. We??????re looking for some real thrill seekers who are up for the challenge and ready to take total control their ride experience.??????
Dominator joins a portfolio of 13 industry-leading roller coasters including Volcano, The Blast Coaster, Flight of Fear (the world??????s first coaster with LIM launch technology), Anaconda, The Grizzly and the Rebel Yell.
