Tigris will take riders on a journey through looping twists, forward and backward motion, drops, a 150-foot lunge toward the sky, and an inverted heartland roll, reaching a top speed of more than 60 miles per hour. Riders will travel on more than 1,800 feet of steel track designed to emulate the agility of the tiger.
