This coaster will probably make the best use of its height more than any other coaster in the world. That outer bank at the top, slowly gliding through with only having a lap bar will be insane. Facing the sky, the ground, viewing the park from 375 ft. The floorless design will make you feel like your floating being super exposed to the elements and with only a lap bar you feel so free putting your hands in the air. I would expect the air time to be huge when falling back down the tower may be the best drop in the world. This coaster although a “gimic” will offer a coaster experience unlike we ever seen before. If a retrofitted ka, or another strata was never going to happen, this is a pretty solid replacement. We also never seen a ground up coaster of this scale built since Ka itself and in the current days of “new family coasters” it’s pretty impressive we are getting something so tall. But, this is only filling a hole that was lost and park still needs more investment to make up from all the removals and have a better coaster line up than before 2024.

The gimmick is this might be the scariest most nerve wrecking coaster to get on. This seems to have all the most terrifying parts of the S&S swing at triple the height. Opening up the roof seems like a move to crank up the intensity and nerves even higher.
Unless something does not go to plan, I would fully expect the ride to be ready for opening day, with preview events / first rider events prior. I have no guesses what weekend in 2027 the park will open.
