The Matugani launched looping roller coaster at Lost Island Theme Park, Waterloo, Iowa

Matugani banks you through the turn and just keeps going as you roll upside down through an inline twist.  You really get some nice hang time here as Matugani rolls you over.

With Matugani up and running Lost Island finally has a big star that makes the trip to Iowa a whole lot easier.

Matugani is so much fun that when you hit the brakes you get the urge to run down the exit and get back in line for another ride.

Speaking of great rides Lost Island's Kukui Station bumper cars may not be as awesome as the Scooters at Knoebels but they are insanely fun.

What makes Kukui Station so much fun is not only is there some force to the hits but the ride operator plays a role in the fun as they have a button that sends all of the cars spinning for a little more random fun.  Kukui Station is a ride I can't pass without hopping in line because it is so much stupid fun.
