[coolcoasterdude14]

[XxHxcDancer6xX]

hmmm im guessing they were just testing the brakes that are used just incase the train rollbacks..but thats pretty cool though..ive always wanted to see this ride do that...

thnx @dlfreak!!

What was wrong with the ride??? Why was the ride down for???

[NorthwestCoasters17]

@JakePeavyFan44 Sometimes when the train launches it doesnt get enough speed to get over the hill so there is emergency breaks in the hill they stop it. Then they release to go backwards like shown in the video.

This happens to this ride in particular a lot, so you can expect to see it.

[LaynerzT]

This happened a lot when I went there last summer

[pie4guy]

yay

[kevkev44]

Yeah, what happened? Did it rollback at the top or what?

[lightingdesigner0315]

I was there the day this was filmed

[DarthJeff77]

Really?

[filmfreak11]

What if that was part of a regular roller coaster launch?! Haha. Your coaster goes backwards, you don't know where you're going. You stop then suddenly launch forwards. That'd be an interesting ride.

[CameronDude]

was it a rollback?

[disneyFREAK242]

A rollback is when a roller coaster doesn't have enough speed to go over the hill it is on and goes back to hit emergency brakes.

[coasterfreak14]

So that what happens after a breakdown. Thanks for the vid!

[dlfreak]

They cycle the trains a few times and then reopen. Sorry, I don't know anything about the technicalities of it all. :)
