Tigris, Steel roller coaster in Busch Gardens Tampa, United States
The Tigris roller coaster reaches heights of 150 feet and propels riders through multiple inversions at speeds up to 62 miles per hour.
The attraction opened in April 2019, replacing the former Tanganyika Tidal Wave water ride that operated in the Stanleyville section until 2016.
The ride design incorporates educational elements about tiger conservation efforts throughout the queue area, connecting entertainment with environmental awareness.
The coaster train consists of three cars accommodating 18 riders total, with both seat belts and overhead restraints ensuring passenger security.
The track employs a linear synchronous motor system that launches riders forward and backward through three separate acceleration phases.
