After the first drop has sent a massive dose of adrenaline surging through your system comes The Monster's overbanked turn.

Here The Monster slows for a second giving you a moment of calm reflection.

You have a moment to catch your breath that the first drop has taken away before a horror filled with loops, hang time and plenty of negative-g's grabs a hold of you and takes you for a killer ride.

I have to say that I really like sitting on the outside of the train not just because it feels more open but as The Monster twists at the top of some of the high turns being out away from the rides center of gravity you do get thrown around quite a bit.

They don't call it an overbanked turn for nothing as you can see here.
