This is Diamondback at King's Island north of Cincinnati, OH, USA. This is a Hyper coaster model from B&M and it opened here on April 18, 2009. This coaster is 5,282 ft. (1,609.9 m) long, is 230 ft. (70.1 m) high with a drop of 215 ft. (65.5 m) and a ride time of about three minutes. Diamondback's top speed is 80 mph (128.75 km/h). This is a airtime machine which is something that most coaster enthusiasts crave above all else. Air time is that feeling you get as you go over a hill and get lifted slightly out of your seat. That feeling is accented by the "T" style lap bars that hold you in to your seat. Lap bars are needed only when coasters like this one do not go upside down.
