Valravn, Dive coaster at Cedar Point, Sandusky, United States
Valravn is a steel dive coaster at Cedar Point amusement park in Sandusky, Ohio, with a track spanning 1041 meters (3415 feet) and three inversions. The trains navigate loops and drops at speeds reaching 121 kilometers per hour (75 miles per hour).
The coaster opened on May 7, 2016, as the 100th installation by manufacturer Bolliger & Mabillard since the company's founding in 1988. This anniversary installation marked an important milestone in the Swiss company's history.
The ride's name refers to a supernatural raven from Danish legends that flew over battlefields and consumed fallen warriors. This dark origin gives the coaster a mysterious character that visitors can feel during their experience.
Each train holds 24 riders arranged in three rows of eight seats, secured with vest-style restraint systems and seat belts. The wide seating layout allows good views of the track throughout the entire ride.
The highest point of the structure reaches 68 meters (223 feet), where riders pause for several seconds and look out over the park. They then plunge straight down at an exactly vertical angle for 65 meters (214 feet).
