The Diamondback rollercoaster at Kings Island, Kings island, Ohio

One of the things that I like most about Diamondback is that it's not an out and back like most hyper-coasters.  Diamondback is really freeform with a really sprawling layout.

There is no predictability with Diamondback's layout which makes it that much more of a thrilling ride.

Here is a better photo that shows off Diamondback's 2 in and 2 out seating layout.  It is cool having people next to you but sitting in my favorite row all the way in the back when you have an outside seat you feel all alone out there with nothing around you.

Now thinking about which I prefer Diamondback over Orion...the choice is easy as I'd choose Diamondback.

By the time Diamondback heads for the splashdown finale it has given you one hell of a complete ride.
