Next up for my quick sprint around Kings Island is Banshee.
Banshee is a inverted coaster that opened at the park in 2014.
Banshee is one of the best if not the best inverted coaster that
Bolliger & Mabillard. It all starts out with a nice spiraling
drop.
Banshee has seven inversions including a dive loop, a normal loop, a
zero g roll, a pretzel knot, another loop, followed by an in line twist.
What makes Banshee great is that the second half of the ride is downhill
from the first half so just as Banshee is starting to loose steam you
drop downhill gaining more speed. Banshee doesn't let up
until it hits the brakes.
