Soar to heights of 140ft, and then find yourself hurtling towards the ground, reaching speeds of over 55mph! The coaster even passes so close over water that Manta’s ‘wings’ appear to skim the surface.

Stare directly down at the track, as you ride! A ‘vest’ harness, locking lap bar and ankle bar hold you in place as the ride car is raised and tilted, leaving you facing downwards
