Mantis
Mantis
or TCFKAB (The Coaster Formerly Known As Banshee), is one mean and out
of control bug. Originally  named Banshee, several people protested the
name and the park change the name 4 days after the announcement.
The ride itself is different - mainly because one is not used to
standing up for a ride on a roller coaster. After traveling up the 137
foot high lift hill, riders are treated to a nice view of the front of
the park before turning and dropping. The first thing that
catches some people attention is a the brake on the first drop. Don't
get mad - because it helps the ride - as one will experience some
wonderful "hang time" while traveling through the vertical
loop. After traveling through 3 loop, the train enters the block
brakes before dipping down and getting turned every which way
(including up-side down one, in an corkscrew).
