This
floorless coaster, originally known as Batman:The Knight Flight before being
transplanted from Geauga
Lake , dominates the landscape from the Kings
Dominion parking lot, as it’s the closest ride to the park’s entrance. It was therefore my first and last ride of
the day. When the all clear signal is
given, the floor drops out from the loading platform and the train makes a
right turn out of the station (after a small dip similar to the one on Nitro) before
ascending a 157-foot lift hill. It then
descends 148 feet at a right angle, shoots up into a 135-foot vertical loop, makes
an upward right turn, swoops down and goes up into a cobra roll. The ride features a substantial length of
track (4,120 feet) and a total of 5 inversions, the other two of which are
interlocking corkscrews. It’s very well
laid out and nicely paced, with good airtime and a strong thrill factor.
Although I enjoyed my rides, I found them to be a bit rough in spots and would
advise riders to keep their heads back to avoid an ear boxing. Dominator is as good as if not better than
most coasters of this type. 4 out of 5
stars. For more information about rides
