The Tigris Rollercoaster at Busch Gardens Tampa, Tampa, Florida

Tigris, is quite the fun ride, and as Bond had not yet experienced one of these Premier Rides Sky Rocket II model coasters we hopped on a completely empty train for a blast.

Tigris is a launched coaster with a "swing launch" that sends the train forward and in reverse as it builds up enough speed to send the train over its hundred and fifty foot tall high point.

Slowly making your way through Tigris' in line twist gives wonderful hang time.

Post hang time you are sent skyward as you crest the first plunge into the loop of track below.

Outside of the excessive restraints (a over the shoulder harness in addition to a lap bar - some models only have the lap bar) Tigris is a wickedly thrill packed ride.

There is so much packed into Tigris' tiny footprint I'd have no problem is a park, preferably near me, would purchase one.
