The Kumba Rollercoaster at Busch Gardens Tampa, Tampa, Florida

Kumba is just unrelenting.

About the only chance for a breather on the rides almost four thousand feet of track is when the train slows briefly on Kumba's mid course brake.

You'll need your breath as Kumba plunges you into a pair of interlocking corkscrews.

One thing the armchair theme park designer in me loves about Kumba is how when Busch Gardens and Bolliger & Mabillard designed it is how they set up this amazing vantage point that sets up one of the best photo spots of any coaster on the planet.  There have to be tens of millions of photos taken right here.

Taken at speed Kumba whips you through the corkscrew.
