Cedar Point Coaster-Mania 2000 Sandusky, Ohio Page Three
Mantis is a fun stand up coaster designed by Bollinger and Mabillard.
Mantis has four loops: A vertical loop (pictured above), immelman, tilted loop and a corkscrew. In addition to the loops the Mantis ends up in a twisted mass of track that's loads of fun.
Here Mantis dives down from the quick turnaround after the immelman. Mantis is one of the better stand-ups out there. My only critique of it is the brake down the first drop takes way too much speed away from it taming the second half.
