The Montezoomas Revenge - The American Coaster Enthusiasts Coaster Con 42 at Knott's Berry Farm, Buena Park, California

As I said Montrzooma's Revenge only has one loop but as this is a shuttle loop coaster that goes both directions on the track you are inverted twice.  One inversion is going forward and the other one is in reverse.  What's fun about going through this twice is with all of the speed from the launch the forward loop is really forceful planting you firmly in your seat.  In reverse though the train slows through the top of the loop and you have a second or two of hang time.

A train full of riders is a blur as Montezooma's Revenge speeds back through the station.

Montezooma's Revenge is not done with you after the station as it has one final trick.

That is the back spike.

Monte throws you up in the air for one last thrill.  This is where the back seat really shines as the best place to ride because you have that much more you are shot up and conversely that much to more to fall as Montezooma's Revenge plummets into the brakes.
