Gwazi is in reality two distinct coasters intertwined: Gwazi Tiger has an element that gives riders a slalom sensation, more like a bobsled than a wooden coaster. Gwazi Lion's highlight is a seemingly continuous number of spirals. This wooden coaster has six nearby dueling passes which allow the coaster trains to perform high speed fly-bys! It is also the Southeast's largest and fastest double wooden roller coaster, having more than 1.25 million board feet of lumber and more than 2 million bolted connections.

This sit-down coaster will flip you upside down 7 times! The lift hill takes you right through the middle of the first loop!

Montu will twist and flip you head over heels! This inverted coaster is one of the most beautiful coasters in the world. Montu pulls an incredible 3.85 G's. Look for the Crocs nipping at your toes just as you leave the station!
