Buzzsaw Overview

This Skyloop X-Coaster is located at the front of the park in the Gold Rush area of the park.

From the station the train travels up a vertical chain lift, which curves over itself at the top, inverting riders. Following this is half a barrel roll, immedialtey followed by another half barrel roll and half loop dropping back to station level. The train carries its momentum through the station and partly up the vertical lift again, before rolling backwards and speeding through the station and up the half loop in reverse. The train rolls through the station yet again, where it is "caught" by the chain lift, and slowly reversed back down into the station for unloading.
