To turn down the eastern edge of Carowinds Thunder Striker you are sent up into a one hundred and seventy-eight foot hill before..
...turning and sending you spiraling down to the ground.
In the back seat with Thunder Striker's long trains there is a bit of a whip effect here that adds to the thrill.
From there Thunder Striker starts a high speed and airtime fuelled run to the turnaround.
Do you like airtime? Thunder Striker has you covered.
