Manta, Steel roller coaster at SeaWorld Orlando, US
Manta positions riders in a face-down configuration beneath the track, creating a flying sensation through loops and turns at speeds of 56 miles per hour.
The 140-foot-tall steel coaster opened in May 2009 following an investment of 50 million dollars by SeaWorld Orlando to expand their attraction portfolio.
The design incorporates marine biology education with ten aquariums containing 184,000 gallons of water and 300 rays for visitors to observe.
Riders must reach a minimum height of 54 inches to experience the 3,359-foot track, which includes four inversions over a duration of two minutes.
The coaster features a wing dip element where riders glide above an aquarium filled with rays and fish, combining marine life with mechanical motion.
