SheiKra dives into Busch Gardens
Tampa Bay. North America's first dive coaster, SheiKra is 200
feet up, 90 degrees straight down, and like nothing else in the
world.
the name SheiKra evokes the power and speed of an African hawk
as it twists and plunges - giving riders a 70 mph, adrenaline-pumping
experience like no other. At 200 feet, SheiKra now takes the crown
as Florida's tallest roller coaster. This thrill machine is also
the tallest dive coaster in the world and the first of its kind
to incorporate an Immelmann loop (a rolling maneuver), a second,
138-foot dive into an underground tunnel and a water-feature finale.
SheiKra offers three minutes of over-the-edge excitement on more
than half a mile of steel track.
SheiKra will serve as the centerpiece of Busch Gardens' newly
themed Stanleyville area, which also includes the new 500-seat,
indoor/outdoor Zambia Smokehouse. the restaurant is situated on
the coaster's perimeter, allowing guests to be a part of the action
while dining.
