Is that a chain lift hill? I thought the millennium force revolutionized the lift hill with the elevator style lift with it being faster and smoother...Or they should of put a power launch hill like on the maverick....
@neil3184: No you're just retarded. Just because Millennium has a cable lift does NOT mean that every recently made coaster will have one. There are different models of rollercoasters you know? And the cable lift was made specifically for gigacoasters, which is what Mil. is.
@Romeighla Um, no it's not, not even close. The tallest is Kingda Ka in New Jersey, it's also the 2nd fastest in the world I think. It's like 400 and something feet tall and launches at 120 mph. Diamondback is only about 210 feet
no Diamondback isnt a cable lift and a launch hill sounds kool but really on a coaster that highwould take all the suspense out of it-which is half the fun-theres ur answer
@neil3184 > It depends on what the manufacturer wants on the coaster that determines the type of lift it has...El Toro also has the cable lift system. Not every coaster above a certain height will have the cable lift...i prefer the chain, there is nothing better than the sound of clickity-clack on a coaster.
@jasonfan99 WTF! yes this ride is very similar. It is also very different. Behemoth has a little shorter of a drop, and is a little slower. There is no crossover except on the helixes. Plus, there is no water splasdown.
in videos the diamondback looks idkk boringg. but in real life while ur watching it or riding it all it is is pure power and spped. and u cant compare it to the "chang' becuase they r 2 toattaly different types of roller coaster. the db is a B&M steel coaster and the chang tht i have looked up is a steel corckscrew. so u cant compare them. B&M coasters are built of of power and speed.
this coaster seems crappy compared to the one at six flags kentucky kingdom called the chang.... the only cool thing about the diamond back is the water, but the chang goes upside down like 3-4 times. sooo. BOOYAHH.
Wow, someone actually like Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom, I find that amazing! Kentucky Kingdom is known as being one of the WORST parks in the Six Flags chain. They haven't even bothered to open the area that the Twisted Twins are in. Kentucky Kingdom is a county fair compared to what King's Island offers.
holy crap everyone gets it wrong diamondback is the tallest, fastest, and meanest coaster TO EVER STRIKE KINGS ISLAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's not what the press release says. Just go to the Diamondback site (kidiamondback [dot] com) and read the press release. They may use that line in advertising, but they didn't on the press info...and I went off the press info when I wrote the video description.
Actually all roller coasters (both wood and steel) are designed to give a little. They have to be flexible given that it's outside and subject to the elements including wind and that a 20-30 ton train is making it's way around the track about once every two minutes. Remember this, if it does not bend, then it will break.
i rode this ride 12 times without getting off

They should put a bridge over the water splash so people can get wet. Other wise, the splash is pointless.
