Fight of the Hippogriff
The first version of this coaster was a re-theme of an existing one (Flying Unicorn) that was integrated into the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Islands of Adventure in Orlando. It was a strange choice to build such a low capacity coaster from scratch when they brought the concept to Japan.

The ride is a standard Vekoma roller skater layout, identical to rides like Road Runner Rollercoaster.

Fight of the Hippogriff is a family roller coaster.
Ollivanders Wand Shop in the main street of Hogsmeade.
Here, hundreds of wands are on offer to take home at a not insignificant price!
Guests then disperse into the main shop.
The shop keeper selects a child from the crowd, giving them a variety of wands to "try on". The first couple of attempts are inevitably disastrous, setting of special effects in the room, such as falling shelves. Eventually one that "matches" is found in a magical moment.
