Kong, Steel roller coaster at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom, Vallejo, US.

Kong features a 115-foot lift hill followed by a 103.5-foot drop, with multiple inversions throughout its metal track configuration.

The roller coaster first operated as Hangman at Opryland USA in 1995 before relocating to Six Flags Discovery Kingdom as Kong in 1998.

The Vekoma Suspended Looping Coaster model established new standards for inverted roller coaster designs in Northern California theme parks.

The ride maintains strict height requirements between 52 and 78 inches, operating with one train containing 10 cars for 20 riders.

In 2016, Kong received virtual reality technology allowing riders to experience a 360-degree digital environment during their journey.
